From Ms. Lihua's classroom to Ms. Jing's, and now Ms. Ping's, our child has been thriving during her time there. All the teachers (and assistants) have been great; they pay attention to our child's strengths, weaknesses, personality and behavior tendencies and adjust their teaching accordingly as opposed to applying one standard approach to all the kids in the class. When we had our second child, we were eager to send her to Ms Lihua's class right when she turned 18 months. The personalities of our two children are quite different; but Ms Lihua's caring and loving style really shines through to get the little ones acclimated quickly to a new school setting, regardless of their differing personalities. We're excited to see our second child go through the other classes in the future as well. It's great that Odyssey is continuously able to retain their amazing teachers for so many years.

My 5 year old son started at ms Grace's when he was about 2.5yo and my daughter as well, we are moving to the east coast soon and we are so sad to be leaving her school. My daughter loves her so much and comes home telling me how much she loves Ms. Grace :) my son is always eager to go back and visit. She really has impacted both my children in positive ways and has taught them how to be respectful, kind, confident, and patient little ppl - on top of the early school learning from the alphabet to numbers, colors, etc. They have educational toys, books, and a great playground for all ages! They make sure your kids are well fed and hydrated throughout the day and provide lunch. Ms Grace thinks of everything and you can rest assured your kids are well taken care of. We are so lucky and grateful to have found Grace's Little preschool over 3 years ago and have so many good things to say about this place - if you are looking for a place for your child to blossom and flourish in the best ways possible and also have a good teacher to student ratio, it's right here :) she never takes more than 8-9 kiddos at a time so there is 4 kids to an adult. The kids get a lot of individual attention, she caters to what their needs are and will always meet them where they are in development. We love you ms Grace and teacher John! You will be missed. Thank you for everything!! :)

Our 3.5 year old son has been enrolled with Teacher Grace and Teacher John for a little over half a…read moreyear now, and we are super happy with our experience. The facility itself is on a residential street, a single room, set apart from the main house, with windows, heating, and its own child-friendly bathroom. It's close enough to El Camino and 92 to be convenient, but far enough that there is no discernible air pollution. There is a large outdoor play structure, and plenty of kid-size toy cars and space to "drive" around. Our son was pretty isolated during Covid, but warmed to his preschool routine very quickly thanks to this team, and looks forward to going each day. Whilst the day is mostly play-based, there is still instruction. I still remember when he came back early on, and had learned to properly hold a pen, and color in the lines! Now, he works on writing letters, numbers, and easy Chinese characters. We have our son enrolled in a combination of full and half-days, and they have been very flexible accommodating our schedule as we've adapted to our hybrid schedules. Our son is 'day-time' potty trained, and they've been very helpful helping us transition off the nap-time diaper. If you're looking for a supportive, nurturing, and safe environment for your 2-5 year old, this is a great pla

First, honestly, we felt a bit scared to leave our first and only vulnerable child to stranger's place. But, soon, such concern had disappeared. She never showed objection to going to daycare, but actually, she wanted to go to daycare every time from the first time. She never cried at all. Because we, parents and my daughter, felt really loved by all the teachers. They share the pictures and what they learned and their status every day, so very comfortable even though we left our daughter the whole day. Because of this daycare, she can make friends and learn how to communicate with children of the same age. We need to move to another city, so we need to leave, but we still want to stay here if possible. 上記に記載の通り、とてもお勧めできるデイケアです。子供のことを大切にしてくれるデイケアで、こまめに日中の様子も教えてくれるので安心できました。また教育カリキュラムもしっかりしていて、自宅にいるだけではできない娘の成長を実感できました。同世代の友達もできて、娘にとってとてもよい機会になったと感じてます。日本人にもお勧めしたいです。

We couldn't be happier with our experience in the infant class at this daycare. From the very first…read moreday, every single teacher and staff member we've interacted with has been incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuinely caring. It means so much to us that they remember not just our son's name, but our whole family--it truly creates a sense of belonging. Most importantly, they treat our son like one of their own. The level of love, attention, and care they provide every day gives us complete peace of mind. Beyond that, they've played such an important role in his growth and development. They helped him establish a solid nap schedule, supported his transition to solid foods, and consistently create a nurturing, enriching environment filled with thoughtful activities that encourage learning and exploration. We are especially grateful for Ms. Ester, Ms. Zuri, Ms. Mel, Ms. Ione, Ms. Bonnie, and Ms. Kyra. Their dedication, warmth, and genuine affection for the children shine through in everything they do. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community and will forever be thankful for the love and care our son receives here.

They have an app for the parents that allows us to check our children in/out, contact the teachers, and also get updates on our child throughout the day which I personally love especially the pictures. My son (1.5 yrs) is enrolled at this location for infant care and I got to say, from the school itself to the teachers, it has been an amazing and wonderful experience so far. He has grown to love his time at daycare especially the activities they do. From music to artwork, his fine motor and recognition skills have grown. I love the fact that the teachers really put in effort in teaching and making the environment a fun learning space especially at such a young age. they keep him entertained while teaching him.

In the Cubs classroom (for babies under 2), teachers McKayla, Leigha, Angela, Stefany and Gisel are wonderful. They always have a smile on their face and they genuinely care about the kids. In the Panda classroom (for toddlers over 2), teachers Grace, Becca and Xander are the most wonderful people. They love the kids like their own but also inculcate discipline, which is something I really appreciate. Ms. Avinna is a wonderful center director. They arrange events on a frequent basis to celebrate things like Halloween, Mother's and Father's days with the parents and kids. Lastly, breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided by daycare, which is a massive plus since both my husband and I work. All in all, it's the all the teachers and Ms. Avinna who make Kids Konnect a wonderful place.

Preschool Director Nicole, her admin team and the teachers did a fabulous job in how the school managed to navigate during covid period and they take safety very seriously. The school also offers plenty of opportunities for parents to be involved both with the school and the community- mystery reading, volunteering, informal family meetups.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to KinderCare Bay Meadows and its staff by name: Miss.Carla, Miss.Sandra, & Miss.Virgina who is serving as the Acting Center Director for recognizing my daughter's need for additional support in speech and for taking the time to inform and guide us through the process. I'm truly grateful for the professionalism, dedication, and genuine care the staff has for all the kids. It has been such a relief as first time parents. I HIGHLY encourage other parents to visit KINDERCARE BAY MEADOWS and see firsthand the supportive and nurturing environment they provide for every child.

Unfortunately, our experience with this KinderCare location was disappointing. My son was enrolled…read moreat age two, and from the beginning, I noticed that the environment was not age-appropriate to healthy development. His first classroom was directly connected to the infant room without any proper separation. This lack of boundaries exposed him constantly to crying from much younger children, which I believe negatively impacted his behavior and emotional well-being. The classroom ratios were also a major concern. While the teachers were kind and genuinely caring, they were consistently overwhelmed due to understaffing. On some days, I saw up to 24 children under the care of a single teacher when the second staff member was either on break, out sick, or not replaced. This is not safe or developmentally appropriate. When my son transitioned to the next age group, the safety concerns became even more serious. I remember one winter day when I entered the classroom, and it was extremely cold inside. The heater was not functioning, and despite the staff and director being aware of the issue, no temporary solution was provided, and parents were not notified. The doors remained open to the cold, creating an unsafe environment for the children. Accordingly, due to these concerns, I was advised to move my son to a different classroom, but the sudden change and lack of proper transition left him emotionally distressed. He became more resistant to attending school, often crying in the mornings and developing frequent illnesses. The school also failed to inform parents when children in the classroom were ill. For example, when my son developed hand, foot, and mouth disease, we were simply called to pick him up, but we were never informed that several children in the class had similar symptoms prior to that day. One of the most painful things I recently discovered that was that my son had been physically hurt by other children, something that was never disclosed to me. This possibly explains his persistent crying and aversion to attending school, which I now understand as signs of distress that were not adequately addressed. It deeply saddens me that my son, who previously loved attending daycare and had positive early childhood experiences, was left traumatized by this school. I had to make the difficult decision to leave my job to be present for him, as coordinating between his inconsistent care at KinderCare and his health became impossible. While I sincerely appreciate the efforts of the teachers, the systemic issues at this location including poor ratios, inadequate facilities, and lack of transparency caused significant harm to my child's well-being. I hope this review helps other parents make an informed decision and that KinderCare takes serious steps to improve the quality of care and safety for all children.

Your impressive educational background in early childhood education has undoubtedly contributed to our daughter's advanced skills in speaking and counting, well beyond her years. We feel as if our daughter is way ahead of the curve before kindergarten just at 3.5 years old! She was taught mandarin, how to count to 100, all shapes, letters, alphabet, simple addition and math, and so much more including music and nursery rhymes/songs as Ms Rachel plays piano and sings. But what sets you apart is your heart. You've created a warm, loving, and safe environment that has not only accelerated her learning but also helped her grow into a confident and caring individual. Thank you for being such a positive influence in our daughter's life. We feel fortunate to have you as her teacher.
