His first lesson was with Natalie. She was great. He was very nervous and she helped ease his nerves. After the lesson, she had wrote down the areas he needed to focus on. She went over it with both my son and me. He also got a checklist to prepare for the driving test. His next two lessons were with Steve, who was very professional and got him on the freeway and helped him with preparing for the exam including backing up. A few months later, we got two more lessons (4 hours). Erin again was a great help in helping schedule. He had another lesson with Steve. He also had another instructor Katie, also professional and helped him with parking and other areas he requested more practice with. My son passed his driving exam today on the first try.

More recently we signed him up for their Drive Test Package which included a 1-hour pre-drivers test lesson with an experienced ex-DMV examiner and followed by a successful driving test at the DMV. Our first interaction with A-Z Driving School was with Erin, she was very helpful and thoroughly went over all the options of service they provide. The prices are fair, they offer continuously flexible session times, and their cars are clean and recent models. A-Z's driving instructors are professional, patient and exude great communication and experience to teach effectively. We'd like to extend special thanks to Erin, Dillion and Anita. They helped us through this necessary but stressful life event and are terrific people.

This review is long overdue. I can never truly put into words in an online review how much we love…read moreNelly's and how much of a positive impact it has had on our child's life, and on ours as parents. From the moment we toured the facility while pregnant with our first child, we knew this was the right place for us. Our child has attended Nelly's since they were 10 months old, in the infant classroom and is now 2.5 years old in the preschool classroom. I was nervous to send my child at what I felt was such a young age, but now I know I would truly feel comfortable sending my child there at any age. The staff at Nelly's is the absolute best! I cannot speak highly enough of the director, or of the maestras and support staff. They are all equally amazing! My child loves all the maestras and knows each one by name. The way they love all of the students and treat them with kindness, respect, and excitement everyday is such a special thing to see. You can tell how much they care for their students and their wellbeing. I can comfortably go to work each day knowing my child is safe and well cared for, and that's everything you could want for your child when they are being taken care of elsewhere. The classrooms, play areas, meals, artwork, activities - it is all really fantastic. Our child has food allergies and some other health related situations and they have been so safe and cautious. The communication between the staff and parents is really wonderful too. They really have our child's best interest in mind at all times and it shows every day. My child has grown so much in every aspect - physically, mentally, emotionally. And although this is a bilingual daycare primarily focused on Spanish, our child's speech in both English and Spanish has improved immensely. The staff at Nelly's make each day so fun for the kids and they are always learning about new subjects. The staff plan wonderful outings to involve the families and students throughout the year and it's really nice as a working parent to have those moments with your child. The staff at Nelly's also made us feel so prepared and supported through the potty training process and now we are past that initial stage and our child is doing great. I will be so sad for the day we have to move on from Nelly's, but I'm so thankful that is still a ways out. I highly recommend this daycare/preschool in every way and would rate them a 10 out of 5 if I could.

By the time my son started Kindergarten, he was well-prepared and eager to learn, thanks to Ms. Jane's influence. She played a crucial role in his academic and social readiness. Now, as my daughter begins TK, she is equally prepared for school because of Ms. Jane's guidance. Ms. Jane not only prepares children for school, but also lays the groundwork for life, teaching responsibility, manners, respect, and how to care for one another. Her unique ability to connect with children means they both adore and respect her. I often struggled to get my kids to listen at home, but a quick call to Ms. Jane would immediately improve their behavior. My children frequently say that they miss Ms. Jane, and they often draw pictures for her or eagerly share their weekend adventures. Even my son, who has been out of daycare/preschool for over a year, still enjoys visiting her. She has truly become a part of our family--a trusted guardian for our children. While we are so sad to be leaving after six years, we know she will remain a cherished part of our lives, and we will plan to visit often. If I could give her ten stars, I would!

We always received a warm smile and a hug at the beginning and end of the day, and had great communication at all times.
