    As a parent, you really just want your child to be happy, supported and excited to go to school…read more We've had such a positive experience at Stratford Washington Park campus and really enjoyed our Kindergarten year. One thing we've really appreciated is the balance between strong academics and social-emotional learning. Our child had a bit of an adjustment period coming from a different school environment at the start of summer camp, and Program Director Ms. Karwa was amazing in helping with that transition. She's thoughtful and supportive with younger children during big emotion moments and does a great job building strong relationships with parents. Teacher Ms. Chaudhry and Ms. Suresh have been caring, kind, and dedicated teachers who create a warm classroom environment while helping children grow both academically and socially. Another thing that really stands out about Washington Park campus is the sense of community. There's a strong connection between families, students, teachers, and campus leaders. The family engagement efforts are wonderful, and the campus leaders and admissions put a lot of effort into creating opportunities for families to connect and feel involved. This campus has such a warm and welcoming feel, it feels like more than just a school, it feels like a community.

    Our daughter joined this Stratford through summer camp. When we toured different Stratford…read morecampuses, we were especially drawn to this one for its natural greenery and "just-right" size. It's calm and easy for kids to settle in. Looking back, we feel genuinely fortunate and grateful for the principal, the Director of Preschool & Kindergarten (Ms. Sandeepa), and the teachers, who truly make this campus stand out. You can feel the heart and intention Ms. Sandeepa brings, and how thoughtfully she uses parent feedback to make the learning journey even more special. I've been impressed many times by the activities she intentionally designs to support children's social-emotional growth, something that matters so much to young kids and might not be emphasized in every Stratford setting. Our daughter enjoys her learning through art, singing, games, and hands-on experiences like exploring the garden and different materials. We also LOVE the Mandarin afterschool program and the teachers. A good leadership team matters so much for a campus. We are happy with our choice and would highly recommend Stratford Washington Park to parents who seek an inclusive learning environment with natural greenery and professional while caring faculties to be with your children 80% of their awake time during weekdays.

    Both of my children have attended KinderCare Sunnyvale. Our daughter went from…read morePreschool-Kindergarten (2019-2022) and our son went from Toddler-Kindergarten (2021-2025). At every stage/classroom they were in, the teachers and staff were amazing to work with. They were upfront and transparent when concerns arose, but above all cared for each child as if they were their own. Teachers and staff knew all of the children and parents by name, which helped to cultivate a family environment. The Assistant Directors and Directors were always in the Lobby to answer questions and interact with families. Ms. Michelle's Kindergarten program is legendary and of the highest standards. She goes above and beyond to nurture, educate, and prepare her students for Kindergarten/1st Grade. I have never seen a teacher give so much of herself to her students and love every minute of it. Both of my children had the privilege of being in her classroom and they were transformed under her guidance. We will forever be grateful to her and will consider her part of our extended family. Outside of the classroom, KinderCare Sunnyvale also provides a wide range of additional experiences to help children grow. Experiences like Learning Adventures (phonics, cooking, etc), Amazing Athletes (sports program), guest presenters (petting zoos, reptile shows, train rides, music performers, etc) and events (Summer Kick Off party, graduations, Mother's Day & Father's Day activities, etc). With many of these experiences, families also get to participate alongside their children. The KinderCare Sunnyvale facilities is in well maintained, inviting, and secure. Even though COVID, the teachers and staff went above and beyond to ensure everyone was healthy and safe. The safety of all children continues to be their top priority. We have attended other KinderCare centers in the Bay Area, but none come close to comparing to KinderCare Sunnyvale. The value of what you get is worth every penny you spend. KinderCare Sunnyvale also offers corporate and/or sibling discounts. So always ask to see if they will apply to you. While my children have aged out of KinderCare Sunnyvale, I cannot thank the teachers and staff enough. Thank you for all you have done for our family and continue to do for families in the Bay Area.

    We searched for several daycares before settling on this one because it was conveniently located…read morenear our workplace. However, our experience was not as positive as we had anticipated. Within a week of enrolling our daughter, we observed several concerning issues: 1. On different days, both my wife and I witnessed teachers talking to each other while several children were crying. It seemed as if the teachers were ignoring the children's cries. 2. My daughter consistently expressed fear of going to kinderCare and would cry a lot when she heard about kindercare. We are unsure why she felt this way. 3. In contrast, when we enrolled her in a different daycare within one week, she felt much better and even liked the teachers there. Overall, our experience at this daycare was not as positive as we had hoped.

There have been times when I forgot back up clothing or a water bottle, they got me covered. They partnered with me during potty training and we were successful within two weeks. If there is an incident, I get an alert on my app with their assessment and a photo. Due to their education in child development, I can see that they are intentional in the activities they design for the kids. Some examples include making a cake, making butter, slime, observing dry ice, and hatching chickens. I also love their backyard and garden where the kids grow their plant each spring and help harvest carrots. I highly recommend this daycare!

    Our son started at Little Sunshine when he was 6 months old (now almost 2 years old) and choosing…read moreLSHD has been one of the best decisions we made as first time parents. We have considered moving out of Sunnyvale to be closer to our workplaces, but each time we go back to not wanting our son to change schools and wanting to be close to Little Sunshine if we have a second child. Here are my favorite things about LSHD: Loving and supportive environment - Cecilia, Yuri, Mari and Ana love and care for our son as if he was part of their own family. I was sad and nervous to leave my baby when my maternity leave ended, and knowing he was in a loving environment that was as close to being loved on at home was one of the only consolations. The team provides our son with homemade, delicious meals that he eats each day, despite barely eating anything we make at home. When he was a baby, they diligently followed our feeding requests and warmed breast milk brought from home and worked on introducing solids. Our son is very spirited and at times has had challenges sharing, taking turns, shouting etc. and they have worked with him on these skills with the utmost patience and support for his individual development. Cleanliness - Cecilia's home is incredibly clean and filled with colorful, engaging toys. I don't want to jinx it, but our son has also avoided any major illnesses commonly picked up at daycare and has not been sick constantly which we were very afraid of when starting child care. He also comes home clean every day, but on the weekends we probably go through two -three outfits a day! Not sure how they do it. Knowledgable - As other reviewers have stated, Cecilia is so empathetic and encouraging for first time parents. She will work through any concerns you may have for your child while carefully listening and offering gentle advice and reassurance. The staff has had over a decade of experience with so many children so it is invaluable to hear their perspective on any concerns you may have. Play based learning - I was not someone who was looking for an academic environment for my very young child and instead valued a loving and caring space for him to play and naturally learn. Our son has exceeded all my expectations for what he could know before the age of two. He can count and say his colors in English and Spanish, has learned about days of the week and the calendar, and can recognize individual letters and the sounds they make. Reliable and open communication - I think in 1.5 years there has been one single day of unplanned closure due to a power outage. They share their vacation schedule well in advance so you can appropriately plan. They share photos and text updates that make my day while at work. I highly recommend Little Sunshine Daycare for anyone looking for a safe, reliable, loving, nurturing and clean home environment for your child. Cecilia is truly passionate about early childhood education and care and I feel so lucky she provides this service to our community.

They've taken such good care of him, and he's formed a lovely bond with everyone. It's been a joy to watch him grow and learn from their care and teaching. We really appreciate the high standards of cleanliness, safety, and no-screens approach. These were the clear differentiators when were hunting for the perfect daycare. Ms Cici is a prompt communicator and gives us regular updates. As first-time parents, I can honestly say that they've been true partners every step of the way. We'd highly recommend Little Sunshine to anyone considering!

Teachers are warm, caring and loving. We know our child is in good hands. As its name suggests, Creative Explorers a preschool that values and nurtures creativity by hands-on experience. The play-based approach resonates well with my child and they learned so much because it's fun! I also love that the teachers let the children decorate art in their own way rather than forcing them to follow certain pattern and make it "perfect". I think that's key to nurturing creativity. The school is very good at planning and celebrating key holidays/events and bringing the families together, so the families have developed strong bond and sense of community. The biggest event series of the year is the summer! The school plans for 6 weeks long of special curriculum/events including water play. My child got over fear of water because of that! We highly recommend Creative Explorers!

They invest time into learning what is special about your child and work with you to improve on what needs improving My son was in the bigs class as his first completely by himself experience & he has grown leaps & bounds. He plays independently, he's grown to start to initiate play and playing together with friends. When we had periods of pushing boundaries & learning how to play with others, they were great with talking with us on how to work/reinforce these ideas at home. Also, my son is a late August bday & there was debate on whether to start kindergarten. Ms Darcy & Ms Crystal wrote a report on how our son was progressing and on what skills he was striving and also where he was struggling. They also met with my husband & I to discuss. These are things that really indicate going the extra mile! There is also a push to really interact with the other family's (although not a requirement ) which we found helpful. It's great in order to help the kids foster friendships in the class. This was further reinforced with family 'special' events such as fall festival, mothers/fathers day, & end of year celebration. Thank you again to the Creative Explorers team! We could not recommend enough

We are very happy about this facility for a number of reasons: 1. High teacher-to-student ratio. 3 teachers for 6 students for the first year and 3 teachers for 10 students for the second year. 2. Mandarin speaking environment which is very important for us, with a little bit of English blend in. 3. House-made traditional chinese food that looks both delicious and nutritious. 4. Teachers are caring, gentle and very experienced with little ones. 5. Lots of fun activities that are both entertaining and educational. 6. Group activities such as birthday celebrations and mini field trips are adorable. 7. Seasonal activities such as easter eggs hunting and Thanksgiving potluck are fun for the whole family to attend.
