We had so many nerves at first. But from day one, Irina made us feel completely at ease. You can truly tell this isn't just a business for her. She cares deeply about every child and is so intentional about the environment she creates. One thing that meant so much to us is that they even opened a smaller daycare area specifically for children the same age as my daughter so they could be cared for in a space tailored to their developmental needs. They also offer music and gymnastics classes, which I absolutely love. We also receive daily videos and pictures, which has been everything for me as a mom. Being able to see her throughout the day playing, learning, interacting, gives me such peace of mind. When I pick her up, she's happy, engaged, and thriving. She's growing in confidence, social skills, and independence, and I truly believe this nurturing environment has played a huge role in that. We are beyond grateful for Irina, Miss Ana, Miss Stephanie and all the teachers and the love they pour into these little ones every single day.

This was the first daycare I toured where I was able to step out of the room and let my daughter be integrated with everyone. The teachers and owner are incredibly gentle and communicative (I ask a lot of questions!) I've seen huge improvements in her manners, social skills, and vocabulary. She at first had a rough time at the beginning but now when I drop her off, she easily goes towards the teachers and says bye. I feel confident she is safe and well-cared for while I'm at work. I would recommend twin peaks to any parent looking for a safe, clean, and nurturing environment!

I cannot say enough about this daycare. My two girls have been there for the last 2 years and we…read morewill be there until they age out for kindergarten. The teachers are so thoughtful and amazing. They have engaging activities and really think of ways to make every kid special. They have a holiday program and are culturally aware of all traditions. The summer program they have is the best! The weeks are themed, they bring special character guests and activities. As for the owner, I don't know where our family would be without her. She is a true gem. She is so loving and understanding of all family dynamics. She does outreach for multiple communities and is always looking at ways to help out. Sanja and the teachers there really treat the kids like they are their own. We are so blessed to have found such a wonderful place for our kids.

The owner is incredibly understanding and truly cares about both the children and the staff. The facility is always clean, well-kept, and welcoming, which gives me so much peace of mind. The staff keeps me updated throughout the day, and it's clear that my little one is having a great time. He smiles every morning when he sees his teacher, which makes it so much easier for me to head to work. My son is 5.5 months old, and I would 100% recommend this daycare to anyone looking for a warm, home-like environment rather than a large, corporate setting. The teachers in the infant room are absolutely amazing--so loving, attentive, and caring with the babies. I'm so grateful for Sanya, the owner, and MiMi, the assistant director, for ensuring everything runs smoothly. And a special shout-out to Ms. Wazi for all the love and care she gives! God bless this daycare

My Room to Grow - A Truly Wonderful School…read more We absolutely love My Room to Grow! Our son, Tristan, started in the Peach Room and is now in TK, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. From the very beginning, the warmth, dedication, and experience of the teachers have been evident. Not only in how they care for the children, but in how long many of them have been with the school. That kind of consistency speaks volumes about the culture My Room to Grow has built. The teachers here are incredible. Every single one we have met has gone above and beyond to help Tristan learn, grow, and thrive. Carina and Kathy, in particular, have shown such patience, care, and creativity in supporting his development. And Principal Meghan is so thoughtful and engaged, she genuinely knows and cares about every child and family. We have seen tremendous progress in Tristan in just a year and a half, and we are so grateful for the loving environment that has helped him flourish. In fact, we chose to keep him here another year, even though he qualified for Universal TK through Poway Unified, because we simply couldn't imagine a better place for him to continue learning and growing. Our only regret is not finding My Room to Grow sooner! It's such a comfort to know that while I am at work, Tristan is in the hands of people who truly care for him and want the best for him. We feel so lucky to be part of this wonderful community. -- Update: I also wanted to share that my son is diagnosed with ADHD and is on the autism spectrum (verbal and high-functioning). While My Room to Grow isn't a special needs school, they truly go above and beyond to see if they can make accommodations to support each child's individual needs. What was especially helpful when we were considering enrolling Tristan was that they allowed him to visit the school ahead of time to make sure the environment and teachers were the right fit. The staff genuinely care and are willing to collaborate with our Behavioral and Developmental OT therapists to ensure strategies are reinforced consistently at school. I can't express enough gratitude for the compassion, patience, and dedication of every teacher at My Room to Grow. They have made such a difference in Tristan's growth and confidence.

Aria could have gone to TK but I kept her at Gladys 1 more year bc I did not think she was ready for a bigger school. Now after 2 years, she has flourished so much. She eats all kind of food, actually Ms Gladys' food is the best not mommy's . She reads well, is good at math, follows Montessori. Kumon even complimented her she had passed TK level on math. This is coming to an end for Aria at ABCD as she will start kindergarten soon. It is such a bittersweet moment. But at least I know I will bring my second daughter to her soon. Thanks Gladys and Pablo for loving her, caring for her from feeding 1 spoon of food at a time. She is now ready for K, and she is well equipped because of you. This is not just daycare, it is preschool and love and heart. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Extremely disappointed. If you are a parent looking for reliable care for your children, who…read morecommunicates with you and who understands the stress that comes with searching for child care, then I DO NOT recommend this place. They will take your money to add you to an imaginary waitlist, which they will then "pause" without notice and without a refund of your deposit. I paid the waitlist fee of $150 on April 6, 2022 with a projected opening spot of December 2022 for my infant. I inquired numerous times regarding my place on the waitlist, only to be given vague responses such as: 1. "We are still working our way through the waitlist" 2. "We have paused all Poway enrollment at this time, we are hoping to enroll new children very shortly into our center. I will be in touch with you soon once we start to move down the waitlist", and 3. "Once we come across your name on the waitlist and a spot becomes available I will be in touch with you immediately." It's the end of January 2023 and I have yet to hear from them. My family and I waited and waited to hear from them, and were not able asses our childcare options properly due to their lack of communication. At this point, I don't believe there is even a waitlist anymore, and i just lost $150 at no fault of our own. If I had removed myself from the waitlist I would understand not getting a refund, but that is not the case. I'm still here waiting for them to "come across my name." I would not recommend taking the chance. Good luck, parents!

I can't sing enough praise about her and her leadership. The admin has also been great and are so on top of everything (Jessica and Angela). Our son was in the infant room and we had NO issues and knew our son was in great care. Even with COVID on the rise, I feel safer than ever sending my son back here. The staff has implemented a lot of protocol to ensure the kids are safe and my son has been so happy playing his his friends again. They have been extremely communicative and adaptable during these times and I know any child walking through that door will be in great hands. Definitely don't think twice about enrolling your child here.

My son has been attending Montessori Homeschool of Poway since March 2025, and I cannot say enough…read morewonderful things about this daycare and its incredible teacher, Ms. June. From the very first day, it was clear that this is a warm, thoughtful, and nurturing environment where children truly thrive. The classroom is set inside a home, which gives the entire space a calm, welcoming feeling. It's beautifully arranged with Montessori materials and child-friendly areas that encourage independence, exploration, and learning at each child's own pace. You can immediately sense how intentionally the environment is set up--everything feels purposeful, peaceful, and designed to help little ones feel safe and confident. What truly sets this daycare apart is Ms. June. She plans the most creative, engaging, and thoughtful activities every single day. My son comes home excited to share what he learned, and we've seen incredible growth in his communication, speech, reading, and overall skills. The Montessori approach here isn't just a label--it's genuinely practiced, and the results show. One of the things I appreciate most is how personally involved Ms. June is with each child. She knows them deeply--their strengths, challenges, interests--and she gives them the kind of individual attention that makes them feel seen and supported. It's obvious how much my little one adores her and looks up to her. Under her guidance, my son has already started reading and writing simple words, something we didn't expect this early. Her weekly Friday "Show and Tell" series has also been such a gift--he speaks more confidently and clearly, and it's helped him come out of his shell in the best way. A special mention also goes to Ms. Addie, who is incredibly sweet, gentle, and nurturing. Together, they create a truly loving environment that feels like an extension of home. Our child is genuinely happy to go every single day--and to any parent, that says everything. We could not be more grateful for the foundation he's receiving here. We cannot recommend Montessori Homeschool of Poway, Ms. June, and Ms. Addie enough. They have been such a blessing for our family.

Most of all, we deeply appreciate the exceptional care Ms. June has given. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for her students have made a lasting difference in our daughter's life. It was bittersweet when our daughter transitioned to Kindergarten, but we're so glad that Ms June had given her the tools she needed. She was very well prepared for Kinder.
