It's a fun, caring and safe environment with wonderful teachers and staff. The layout is open and very interactive. There's a huge play area with a play structure.

This is a great choice if you're looking for a preschool in Mililani.

My children LOVE their teachers. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are included in the tuition so that is an added bonus. I can tell the teachers actually love what they do. My youngest has been going to school for only two months now and has learned so much!! During covid, this school has made me feel safe and confident about sending my child back to school in the middle of a pandemic. They take extra precautions to keep the children safe and it is very appreciated. If you are looking for a preschool in Central Oahu, Rainbow Schools Mililani should be at the top of your list!!

Apparently TCA used to be THEE school. Well that is no longer the case. Save your money because the…read morequality is no better than the cheapest childcare option on island. They are under new leadership as of December and this place is now nothing more than a money grab. $2600 a month with roughly 88 kids in the school, and they no longer go on field trips, print materials, or fund classroom learning items (the teachers do). The teachers used to smile and love their work and now they aren't welcoming, they all are clearly miserable and they are quitting by the week. They don't follow required state teacher to student ratios nor cleanliness standards. It's become just another daycare with sick notices weekly to parents. This is the most expensive school on the island and they can't assure standards in cleanliness, consistency, or continuity- all things that are important during these foundational years of school. There is actually no communication with parents and the teachers that are quitting are only citing moral and ethical reasons, but honestly that's enough for me. When I emailed to have my daughter removed immediately, they didn't even ask why. Our children deserve better.

The owner is amazing and love her story of opening the school however this was one of the lower paid positions in education I ever took. Management at the time was horrible the director was very micromanagy and judgy. She was also rude and un reasonable.

But there are some nasty witches that works there that are rude obnoxious, very sassy with horrible attitude. There are two witches that are there that either in the front waiting for the drop off and pick up. I won't name them , but those witches should not be there!!. If they're working with children and they have that kind of attitude , they do not belong there , but instead they should be in a prison working as a prison guard. They are nasty towards me, scolds me, on what i'm doing wrong, when im there to pick my granddaughter and dropping her off. I can only imagine if they are like this towards me, and how they would be towards the children when family members are not around. Very snappy and sharp edges with the children. Very sad to say they do not have Love and care in their voice and their attitude!!!!! Our Ohana don't have a choice but to bring my granddaughter here, but it is very sad that this is the only option!! if you guys are fortunate and have other options, or have the privileges to drive further or else where, do not bring your kids here because of those 2 witches! I feel that those type will make our future children mean and nasty, and grow up to be just like them. They're nasty. Treating and talking with snappy attitude. And I'm very surprised that upper management do not do anything about this!!!! But i do know one the witch is is supervisor or coordinator of some sort. I will get their names to be sure, will be talking to upper management. They, have too much power or authority or been there too long and probably got away with it too long, and no one is doing anything about it. Probably short staffed too, and will not correct them. Unless you absolutely need their help!!!! Do not bring your kids here!!!! 2 bad apples make it ugly for the entire program!

The staff was amazing, caring and so attentive towards him, they have set the bar for what I expect from all other daycares in the future. They do everything to keep the parents involved from daily check-ins, giving curriculum updates, and sending daily updates of your baby. As a first-time mom, they put all my worries at ease and I always recommend this place to anyone who asks. I honestly don't know how they don't have a 5-star rating because the whole staff truly cares about their kids and provides an environment for them to grow safe and confident.

Everyone was so friendly and knew my child's name and he loved them back. He smiled and got excited to spend his day with them and even saying goodbye, which to me was a good sign. This place was ALWAYS clean, never had any funky odors, and even the other parents where so friendly in passing. Toys, high chairs, counters, etc were always clean - I'm honestly not sure how they do it! Entry is gated with an access code and parking is located a short walk away. Teachers plan fun art activities with the children that get sent home for you to keep. Teachers update you throughout the day with diaper changes, feedings, and my favorite - photos - to see how their day is going, through Pro Care app. The ONLY reason we are no longer here, is because we couldn't afford it. We don't qualify for any kind of assistance and the cost was starting to add up for us. To the entire team at Stepping Stones Waipahu - we greatly appreciate the care you took of our miracle baby!

This trip I reached out at the last minute during the Christmas break with very little hope of finding a suitable nanny. They assigned Brittany to us and she was a gem. My initial goal was to put my 5 year old to sleep and have a nanny watch guard in case he wakes up while me and my husband have some adult dinner. That didn't happen. Brittany came prepared to entertain my son in the hotel room for 5 hour (way past his bedtime). She came 3 days during our stay and my some waited for her like he waited for Santa. Standing by the door listening for footsteps. I can't say enough good things about Brittany and happy kids.

Hi Elle and Kelly, Brenda from your happy kids nanny…read moreservices was amazing, showed up on time, listened to our tips on our kids, gave us photo ID up front and bonded with our kids immediately giving us time and comfort to take an adult hike for 5 hours...and she gave us an opportunity to relax to ourselves as a couple and have 5 hours. Happy kids is a great middle man to coordinate the sitter and do all arranging and paperwork. Our children are special needs autistic, and Brenda showed up with a clear plastic carry bag with toys and she knew how to take care of the unique needs of autistic kids. Well worthy investment!
