There had been a lot of feedbacks and playground talks among parents that Challenger had a very strict culture and tough curriculum that not every kid can handle and adapt. The feedback is that usually boys that have high energy and too active will get into trouble a lot. To our surprise, he loves the school just after 1 week and always looking forward to going to school in the morning, we also see a big difference in his English speaking ability and his independence in behavior. We are assured to let him continue with this school for the next coming years. We want to give special thanks to the 2 teachers Miss Hemanth and Miss Sonali for their loving care and coaching, we can tell he is very happy with them and there is the strong teachers-students chemistry we observed. Kids usually are very pure and express directly what they feel so we are very assured when he nods and say he likes his teachers and wants to go to school. From what I see so far, I believe Challenger has a very strong track records and is well managed across all their schools to groom the students to be academically strong and independent character especially needed in the competitive Bay Area. No wonder Challenger had been listed as one of the top private schools in US.

They are patient, caring, and supportive teachers who helped my child learn and grow a lot. Not only did my child improve academically, but he also learned how to be disciplined, respectful, and responsible. The teachers created a positive and encouraging environment where he felt happy and confident every day. My child had a great time at school and always enjoyed going to class. We are grateful for the love, guidance, and dedication from the teachers and staff. Thank you for making such a positive impact on my child's learning journey.

PNL has been such a meaningful part of our children's lives. My oldest daughter, who is now 11, also attended PNL, and she still gets excited to run up and say hello to her former teachers whenever we drop off her younger sister. That says so much about the love and care the staff provides. The director and every member of the staff have been nothing short of amazing, caring, and supportive. They have truly made a lasting impact on our family, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they have done for our children. Thank you for the love, dedication, and positive influence you've had on our family. We will always cherish the memories we've made at PNL.

Our older son attended when he was preschool age, and we absolutely loved watching him thrive under their exceptional care. When it was time for our daughter to start preschool, we knew exactly where she belonged--and she has been thriving here for over six months now! The staff at Bright Little Minds truly, deeply care about the children. What I love most is that they provide a warm, nurturing school environment that reminds me of the wonderful, supportive community I personally grew up in. It is rare to find a place that feels like home while perfectly setting kids up to grow, learn, and succeed. We are so grateful to the entire team! Bright little mind Montessori isn't in the most convenient location for our family due to distance and direction, but it is totally worth our investment and extra time spent on drop offs and pick ups.

Our son was at HeadsUp for about a year, starting when he was around one. We had a great experience…read more-- the teachers are caring, patient, and very attentive. The class had an amazing teacher-to-student ratio (about 1:2), which made us feel really comfortable. He learned so many practical things there, like using spoons and forks, cleaning up toys, and other everyday skills. The school also hosts fun monthly events that our family really enjoyed. We moved to another daycare when he turned two so he could learn Chinese, but we still have a lot of appreciation for HeadsUp. They even keep inviting us to their events, which shows how much they care. We truly feel the teachers liked our son and treated him so well. Highly recommend!

Our oldest has been attending for 3.5 years - since the infant/toddler class. He's grown from being…read morea super shy covid baby to now being a confident leader in the preschool class. He's excited every month to see how Teacher Tarcito will change the jobs and themes around the classroom. The preschool (especially Rona!) does a fantastic job with adding in visits from firefighters and police, pumpkin decorating contests, special celebrations like "international alpaca day", etc. He comes home with so much to share about his day every day and we're regularly surprised by random fun facts and science or history tidbits that he brings up that he learned from Teacher Tarcito. We love that the small size of the program means lots of personalized attention and back when he was super shy meant that school wasn't overwhelming. HeadsUp is a very special place. Our youngest has been at Headsup for about 3 months now, in the infant toddler room. And with teacher turnover the way it is at most daycare centers, how special that our youngest gets to have two of the same teachers that his big brother had! We know he's well taken care of and loved. He'll bang on the front door in the morning if we're taking too long to leave because he wants to get to school!

She knows how to write all her letters and will spell sentences by just telling her how to write each word letter by letter. She's doing basic math and studying subtraction this week. Miss Yanalia and her two helpers, Miss Jacky and Miss Talia are absolutely the best. They care for each individual child and the kids love them all. Communication between parents and teachers is great and the daily reports are always detailed. All the new kids seem to adjust well within two weeks which is a sign of the great daycare Yanalia runs. If and when I have more children, AAD will be at the top of my list. I would highly recommend you check it out and see if it's a good fit for your child(ren). You won't be disappointed! Forgot to add my daughter has even learned her colors and 1-10 (that I know of) among some other words in mandarin making her somewhat trilingual. Yanalia also to take the culture of each kid into consideration to keep that maternal culture alive in the children.

The team here created a structured, engaging, and loving space where the kids could learn and thrive and communication with parents was amazing. They shared so many pictures, videos and updates throughout the day, which not only gave me peace of mind but also helped me feel connected to her day and even get to know the other kids and parents she interacted with. During her time here, my daughter grew so much. She became more independent, built confidence, and they even worked closely with us on potty training. My daughter was constantly learning new things, and I loved hearing her come home singing songs and sharing what she learned. It really felt like a nurturing environment where she was cared for, supported, and encouraged every day. She still talks about Miss Cristy and does really misses going here which says everything.

Agape has a pretty good rate considering that they offer bilingual program. It is a family base so the place is not big but the first impression to me is it is quite cozy and clean. I think that is very important for my 18 months old child to start with so I give them a try. Now Penelope is 3 years old now and she is quite happy being there. The teacher and Popo, the owner's mom is very caring and loving. And Penelope always mentioned to me at home that she likes teacher Sonia and Chantu. Every day she will bring back some lovely hand crafted stuff and I know my girl was having some joyful moment there. I will recommend Agape if you have a toddler.

The school's director Teacher Karen was amazing. Every interaction she had with us or our toddler showed that she cared tremendously for the children. Suggestions were always welcome. We could reach out to her at anytime. I wonder if she has spoiled it for us at future schools. Time will tell. The other teachers were also amazing. Teacher Des, Queenie, Qiao, Sam, Aliaa, Stone, Tina and Hope looked after our toddler at various times during school days. Our toddler misses them now that school is temporarily closed. Unfortunately, our toddler will age out by the time school reopens.

Even one star is too good for this awful daycare center. I wish Yelp has negative evaluation…read moreoptions. The teachers working there are underpaid and have very minimum passion to take care of the toddlers. I have known at least 3 families including mine don't satisfied this center and transferred our kids out after a few months. It was reported that a toddler got out of the center and wandering in the parking lot outside without being noticed by any of the teachers. Luckily the toddler was rescued by another parent who happened walked by when picked up her kid. Their free lunch is the cheapest lunch from the outside home kitchen which likely is not regulated by the city safety guidance. One of the fun thing that teachers like to do is to label those kids who are not their favorites, such as trouble maker, and they judge kids from divorce/separating families and talk behind. Big "NO" to this center.
