    If you have the flexibility to be involved in your child's early education, you couldn't ask for a…read morebetter place to create lifelong memories with your family. The teachers and environment at PV Hills are remarkably loving, nurturing, and dedicated to teaching children invaluable lessons in compassion, self-worth, and social-emotional intelligence. We started during COVID with my oldest daughter, who later transitioned seamlessly into private school. Thanks to PV Hills, she learned how to "make a plan" when facing big feelings and gained the confidence to advocate for herself. She frequently speaks directly with her teachers about her emotional and social needs--a skill that has benefited her in every grade since. My youngest daughter just graduated from PV Hills and started kindergarten. Throughout her time here, every single teacher truly saw her for who she is, tailoring her interests and curiosities into full-fledged classroom activities. From hands-on science to inventing at the "Innovation Station," the curriculum's emphasis on nurturing creativity and process-driven learning is unmatched. If you want your child to build empathy and deep emotional intelligence--critical skills for the future--this is the place. A special shoutout to the extraordinary teaching staff: Teacher Nada: Incredibly intuitive and compassionate. She takes the time to deeply understand each child's individual strengths and helps them gently navigate their fears. Teacher Nika: A brilliant arts and creative guide who helps children channel their unique ideas into tangible, plan-based projects. Teacher Kat: Quite literally the most patient and kind educator I've ever met. I've watched her sit with struggling children and guide them into thriving with pure love and patience. Bonus: The parent community is unlike anywhere else. It's a respectful, thoughtful, and supportive network where families genuinely look out for one another. I cannot recommend PV Hills highly enough!

It was a game changer for my older son and has been an absolute dream for my daughter. The community element here is unmatched. And the co-op element is such a delightful way to introduce your kids to schooling. I am so, so glad that I sent my kids here for their (and my!) sake.

Her kind and creative leadership style trickles down into every classroom. She manages the school with a grace that balances organization with a deep, personal care for every student. You see it as every kid that walks by her office yells for her - and she responds right back with a snuggle and a smile! You can tell she truly loves her work, and that passion defines how the school operates. The teachers are equally incredible. Every single year a new classroom / teacher pairing brought a unique connection that allowed me to feel comfortable and my kids to feel safe. My kids tell me they miss their teachers over their weekends! They have created such a loving environment where our kids feel safe to take risks and explore. We especially love the creative monthly curriculum. It moves beyond just rote learning to prioritize curiosity, art, and discovery. The staff also maintains a strong focus on academics, finding interesting ways to challenge the kids and bring complex concepts to life. If you want a place where your children will be loved, challenged, and known - this is it. We couldn't be happier with the growth we've seen in both of our kids. We will miss this school very much.

The boys seem much happier to go to school now, which has been a huge relief.

He is high-functioning but has difficulty communicating and expressing his needs verbally. He has also just turned 2, so he still had a lot of growth to do. I was asked whether I would be able to provide support or assistance for him while he attended. I am a working mom, they wanted me to be at the school with him which I cannot because how would I be able to afford the tuition without working. I was then told that I would receive a call back, but no one ever followed up with me after I was told on the phone I would need to assist him in the school. Although, my child has autism he is very capable. I think the word taunted the director creating a bias before even actually working with my child. The experience left me feeling that the school is not inclusive. I would recommend looking elsewhere if your child is neurodivergent or has any type of learning disability in any way. Thankfully, my child is now attending another school where he is welcomed, supported, and thriving.

    I had been eyeing Hi-Fi Preschool for over a year after first hearing about it. At the time, my son…read morewas 3 and I wanted to prepare him for preschool, but we were struggling with potty training. I kept telling myself we would enroll once he was fully trained. Months went by and despite our efforts, it just wasn't happening. I started to feel a little hopeless. That's when I finally reached out to the director, Lana, to ask about enrollment and explain our situation. To my surprise and relief, she told me the school actually helps with potty training. I can't even describe the weight that lifted off my shoulders hearing that. From the very beginning, Lana has been incredibly supportive and attentive. She truly cares about the children and their families, and she is always quick to respond whenever parents have questions or concerns. Whether it's communication, guidance, or reassurance, she is always there and you can feel how invested she is in the kids and the school community. At the time, my son was also speech delayed and had dangerously low iron levels because he wasn't eating well. He relied heavily on milk and refused most solid foods. As a parent, it was incredibly stressful and worrying. But after enrolling him here, things began to change. Within just a month, I started seeing dramatic improvements. His vocabulary began to grow and he started eating better. After two months, he was fully potty trained something I once thought would take forever. Fast forward to today, he's turning 5 and is now in TK. Watching how much he has grown since those early days is truly amazing, and I credit so much of that progress to the incredible teachers here. He started in the 3-year-old preschool class with Ms. Susy, Ms. Joori, and Ms. Andrea, who were so patient and nurturing. Now in the older class, Ms. Erica and Ms. Joelyn continue to be just as supportive, caring, and attentive. Every teacher we've encountered has been phenomenal and truly treats the children like their own. The school also creates such special memories for the kids; there are field trips a few times a year and the sweetest holiday performances where parents get to watch the kids sing and perform. Those moments are priceless. This school helped my son grow in ways I honestly didn't think were possible at the time. For that, I will always be grateful.

I can't express how nice everyone is and how well the kids are taken care of. As every parent knows, leaving your child anywhere is always scary, the staff at Hi-Fi has made my fears into pure joy.

Choosing South Bay Montessori was one of the best decisions we made as parents, and we feel incredibly grateful for the loving, clean and nurturing environment created by the teachers, staff, and director ( Ms. Evien ). From day one, we knew she was in exceptional hands. All the teachers ( special thanks to Ms. Luna, Ms. Heidy, and Ms. Angie ) at South Bay Montessori are truly priceless. Their love, dedication, and individualized attention helped our daughter grow not only academically but also emotionally. She gained knowledge, confidence, and independence while being surrounded by warmth and genuine care every day. As working parents, there was nothing more reassuring than knowing she was safe, happy, and well cared for every day. That peace of mind meant the world to us. The school is wonderfully organized and guided by a thoughtful educational approach that balances strong academics with kindness and support. The teachers, staff, and director go above and beyond to create a community that truly feels like an extension of family. South Bay Montessori is more than just a school -- it is a place where I see that all children are loved, respected, and encouraged to become their best selves. As our daughter graduated in 2025, saying goodbye was truly bittersweet. South Bay Montessori has played such an important role in our daughter's early years and has left a lasting impact on our family. We will always be deeply thankful for the love, guidance, and education she received at SB Montessori. South Bay Montessori will always hold a very special place in our hearts, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a truly exceptional Montessori experience.

    It has taken me a little over a month to rewrite this review…read more Initially, we were prepared to air out all of the details of our experience. However, on our son's last day, Mrs. Roman apologized and showed genuine remorse, even gifting our son a parting gift. Because of that gesture, we held off on posting our revised, updated experience until now. After our son left a little over a month ago, we realized we needed to be honest about why we chose to withdraw him. Our decision came down to two major factors: 1. Constant teacher turnover. Since our son began attending in January, he had around seven different teachers. Even though there are two teachers assigned at a time, it makes no sense to have four major staffing changes between January and October. That instability directly affects children, especially infants and toddlers who need consistency. 2. If you question anything, the environment shifts immediately. The moment you raise concerns or ask for clarification, the school takes it personally. The warmth disappears. You are ignored from multiple teachers, since they all talk, given the cold shoulder, and treated as an inconvenience. It is extremely uncomfortable to drop off your child each day knowing the people you're entrusting them to, no longer like you, respect you, or even acknowledge you. If you can afford to spend a little more on a better environment, we genuinely recommend it. And even then, after our son left, we continued hearing from multiple parents and former staff (several, not just one or two) that these issues are ongoing. Teachers have shared that they have been spoken to in a disrespectful manner, with some even mentioning they've witnessed others cry. Families have also mentioned the emotional impact that the constant teacher changes have on their babies, who are repeatedly forced to adjust to new faces every few weeks. These problems stem from the top. Khan is not who she portrays herself to be during tours. On two different occasions, she expressed how upon a teacher's departure, the teacher took half of the families with her and each time I asked her why, she said she did not know, well, now we know why. We experienced this directly when she wanted to stop feeding our son instead of clarifying a simple lunch question. (We did not allow for her to deny our son school lunch and they continued to feed him). When leadership cannot retain or support teachers, it directly trickles down to the children--every single time. We've also been told the school allegedly cleans with laundry detergent, water, and Pine-Sol, which raises concerns about exposing babies to unnecessarily harsh chemicals. And many parents are familiar with and annoyed at that " Happy tots smell" We truly wanted to move forward, especially after Mrs. Roman's apology, and we still appreciate the kindness she showed on our son's last day. But we also feel a responsibility to other families. Ironically, we've heard better things about the sister school around the corner, but this particular location continues to face the same longstanding issues. Good leadership starts at the top. And that is exactly where this school is failing.

My boy comes home and to my surprise he's singing his 7 continents, months of the year, can almost write his name and is starting to sight read! I should also add, I love when they send you photos of what's happening throughout the day on their app. I also very much appreciate when our teacher takes a half a minute during sign out to tell us about a few highlights of the day, or things to work on, to continue his education at home. Those few moments go a LONG way in making us feel safe with her, and help with direction to make sure he's getting similar schedule and education at home as well Thanks a ton! I attached one where he's planting seeds.

My 3 year old went there for a month of their summer camp and came back speaking much more Chinese (she was speaking just a little before) since the environment made her a lot more comfortable with the language. The school's facilities and rules are well thought out and designed, with a regular schedule for instruction, activities, snacks, napping and free play. There's a lot of hands on activities and crafts, which my little one loved and enjoyed showing me when she got home.

He now loves to tell me what he did at school right after I pick him up. He knows all the students and all the teachers there, and he loves to go there every day. Even though it's a new school but it's really a new site for Nihao. It has all the systems and rules. The director there is an experienced elementary school teacher who is very considerate and thoughtful for situations such as my child's eating habit and bathroom usage. They have hands on activities, outdoor activities for lessons, celebrate different festivals as well as nap schedule, which is essential for the little ones. Myself, is also an elementary bilingual teacher, and I love that they differentiate the lessons for the kids to meet their developmental needs. Besides, they teach Mandarin and English, which helps my son speaks Mandarin at home since our home language is English. There's a lot more to say about this school, and if you are looking for a systematic bilingual preschool, this is the one.
