Everyday they explore, play, discover, laugh and learn more than ever. The kids are going to school with a smile and coming home even happier. At little Stars, they have beautiful spaces (a community garden where they grow veggies, a beach playground, so many ateliers) and loving teachers. Unfortunately the school had to close for a few weeks because of COVID. They reopened 19 weeks ago, with new safety mesures and since then no one has been sick. Kids even don't realize there is a new protocol. So Mrs Darlene, Mr Louie, the teachers, thank you so much for making the school like normal, with running, hugging, laughing, learning children. We will always be thankful!

Two years prior to my son being ready for preschool we began a search for the most appropriate…read moreprogram for him. During that time, we observed every type of approach imaginable. Reggio, Montessori, church-based, home-based, academic, private and public. Seriously, no rock went unturned. Walking into John Tracy was immediately impactful. The campus is secure with a gate and cameras at the opening. I can't tell you how many schools I was able to walk into off the street. The grounds are also immaculate. It is absolutely the cleanest preschool we saw. That includes the private ones priced at $25k and above. There's a real sense of pride shared by every individual in every position at JTC. I spent extensive time over the course of a few weeks speaking with and emailing the director Angie, and observing the classroom. Courtney is a wonderful teacher. She's caring and has clear, consistent boundaries for the students. The school also has a world class counselor in Mary Beth who is always available to offer strategies and support. The entire team at JTC also facilitates weekly parent classes. As an added bonus, Mt. Saint Mary's partners with the school through a grad students program throughout the year. This was important to us as it allowed for constant 1:1, often more than that, interaction for our son. Additionally, the class is always being observed either in the room, or through an attached observation area. The teachers and administrators are always on their A-game and available to parents. When it came down to choosing a program we selected JTC because of all the above and the one intangible we didn't find elsewhere. I unequivocally trust them with my child, period. Their approach to each child as an individual is anchored by relationships with the parents. They make a real attempt to include us as part of the JTC family. In all of this, I've yet to mention the fact that the school is primarily for children with cochlear implants and severe hearing loss. My son has neither of these. If he did, the program is considered as one of the best in the business. They combine best practices and developmental expectations as all of the children will be moving on to kindergarten. Some in traditional school settings, and some in mixed hearing loss/traditional programs. My son is still able to work on his own academic pace, and interact with children his own age as he would in a more traditional preschool program. These children may have hearing impairments, but are just like any other 4-year-old you encounter. We took a chance to do something a little outside the box, and I have zero regrets. Our experience at JTC will stay with our family and my son in particular for a lifetime. We are indelibly grateful to this program. I truly couldn't say enough good things about this school, staff and parents we've encountered.

Before finding our perfect school we tried a couple of other schools in the area and found out that they had a three hour nap, which was not an option for our active 3 year old boy. They have a psychologist and development specialists on site, which is very helpful. I love that they have lengthy outside play time in the shaded yard. Oh, and I forgot to mention the huge Morton bay fig tree in the front yard, which is the soul of the whole preschool. It was so great to bring my son there every day after the hustle of downtown Los Angeles. Highly recommend!

The balance of creative and academic activities is so thoughtfully done. Each day is thoroughly designed to nurture curiosity, confidence, and a love of learning. Ms. Maria, Ms. Beatrice, and Ms. Angela are truly incredible. Their patience, kindness, and genuine love for the children made such a meaningful difference in our son's growth and confidence. They supported him beautifully in his learning and were especially amazing during potty training; always encouraging, gentle, and positive. Watching him thrive in their care has meant everything to us. Ms. Julia brings a level of professionalism, care, and organization that is truly felt throughout the school. She clearly understands how to thoughtfully run a preschool while still maintaining a warm, family like environment. We are endlessly grateful for the love, care, and strong foundation this school has given our son. West Hollywood Children's Academy is truly a gem, and we would recommend it without hesitation to any family looking for the very best preschool experience.

My daughter has been attending Lilybird Schoolhouse since it opened its doors in September 2017…read more Lilybird Schoolhouse is run by an highly experienced teacher. This is not an ordinary daycare center. Your child will learn important, invaluable social and academic tools. In the first week alone, my daughter was already using new words to express herself by saying "help" when she couldn't figure something out. She's learned new songs and is extremely happy when I drop her off and sad when I pick her up to go home. At Lilybird Schoolhouse my daughter is given breakfast and hot lunch, which includes two snacks, milk and water. Everyday there is a new activity. She's learned most of her colors, she does yoga, she's playing with lots of different instruments, she's eating new foods, she's socializing with the children. I've seen so much improvement in one month! I can't wait to see how much more she will develop. The tuition CANNOT BE BEAT. You really are getting more for your money than you could ever expect. Roxsanna is extremely warm, caring and a great experienced teacher with over 15 years of experience. Don't be put off by the surrounding area. I literally come out of my way to work to drop my daughter off at Lilybird Schoolhouse. And I do it because my daughter loves it here. Lilybird Schoolhouse is secure by a locked gate and is a fully LICENSED CHILD CARE FACILITY. Give Lilybird Schoolhouse a chance. Give Roxsanna a call and schedule a tour. You will not regret it. I made the best choice bringing my child here!

We had visited several daycares for the past two weeks and my daughter would not leave my side for many of the tours. When I met Roxsanna, I knew she was in the right place.

The kids have days filled with creative and exciting activities without any screen time (I've seen other preschools and daycare's with TVs in the classroom:( ). They also do much more thoughtful activities than just coloring and painting which I experienced at previous schools. I'm very appreciative of the diversity in the school. I toured many different schools throughout my son's time in preschool and this has been one of the most diverse that I've seen. My son's teacher is Ms Ingrid and she is very kind and thoughtful. It's been really sweet watching my son learning and taking interest in Spanish even though we do not speak Spanish at home. Also the owner, Ms Brittie is very involved and very quick to respond to parents. Overall, I feel that there is a lot of thought and intentionality put into the way that the school was designed and runs. research based and geared towards celebrating each child's individuality while still helping them develop, socially and academically. :)

As a parent, it doesn't make me feel comfortable leaving my child somewhere that makes her unhappy. My daughter went there for 2 1/2 years and never experienced anything like this until that kid showed up. We tried the "teacher observations" for MONTHS (DIDNT work), tried to set up a meeting (they told me no), and lastly, I tried to talk to the parents but the director told me if I did, they would kick my daughter out of the school. I decided to stop taking my child until this matter was solved. They ended up removing my child and I haven't heard from them since. Like I said, truly heartbreaking! edit: they are deleting my reviews.
