The staff is very approachable and communicates well through daily updates. The Christian values that the staff teaches - both explicitly and implicitly - are also in line with the teachings that we want to foster our children with. We had hoped to continue sending both our kids here until at least TK; however, a recent move has made the commute difficult. Overall, I truly can't recommend a better daycare in the area.

We feel the school's is well rounded in all areas and are excited for our daughter to start next year!

A full report with pictures is sent to us daily, throughout the day, and at the end of the day. My grandson is truly thriving there. He is so happy to go there everyday. I highly recommend this place.

The mixed age classroom and Montessori/ Reggio style space provides a wonderful environment for toddlers to explore. I'll go into lots of detail below but overall I highly recommend Beansprouts Preschool. The activities and lessons are guided by the children's interests, which keeps them engaged and excited to learn. Sometimes a theme will be presented and embraced for weeks and they'll really get deep into exploring the subject. Seeing the discussion topics that come up when a bunch of 2-5 year olds are discussing frogs for example is hilarious but also amazing! The teachers really nurture such thoughtful and bright discussions. We love that the kids have a lot of freedom to play how they wish and engage with the materials in anyway they want (as long as it's safe). They also have a lot of freedom to explore friendships and interpersonal skills. Learning how to engage with other children, resolve conflicts and communicate their needs. (Skills that many kids entering elementary school are lacking these days). The teachers focus a lot on emotional intelligence. The children learn at their own pace and their interests are fostered through individual attention and group actives. Actives that seem more "academic" related to reading/ writing or math are presented and teachers will work with the children as much or as little as they seem ready for. Learning is always fun, and this means they are excited to do it. Our child, who is headed to kindergarten soon meets all of the academic expectations that are often whispered about or posted online (letters/sounds, numbers/ simple math concepts, writing name, etc) but more importantly she is socially ready. She knows her boundaries and how to communicate them to others, how to play in a group (as a leader or contributor) and overall has a good handle on her feelings (as much as a five year old can).

Our daughter just graduated from the Terrific Toddlers program with Teacher Wendy, and we couldn't…read morehave asked for a better introduction to school. When we started, Aaliyah was shy and had a hard time with circle time. For the first few months, she would have a meltdown almost every class because she knew circle time meant we would be leaving soon. Wendy never rushed or pressured her. She has such a natural gift for working with young children, gently encouraging them at their own pace. Week by week, Aaliyah became more comfortable. Before long, she was joining in the songs, helping with the parachute, and eventually dancing in the middle of the circle with the other children. Watching her confidence grow over the course of the year was incredibly rewarding. Every class offered something new to explore. There were crafts like painting and coloring, dress-up and imaginative play, sensory activities, and plenty of time outdoors. The outdoor space is wonderful, with two separate playgrounds for different ages, plus tricycles, a sandbox, water play, bubbles, and so many opportunities for little ones to learn through play. One of the things that makes LGPNS so special is its cooperative preschool model. Parents are actively involved in the classroom alongside an experienced teacher, creating an exceptionally high adult-to-child ratio. It meant every child received lots of attention, and it also gave us parents the chance to really get to know one another. Our class was small enough that we formed genuine friendships, and I'm confident many of those relationships will continue long after preschool. Wendy is everything you hope for in a first teacher--warm, patient, enthusiastic, and incredibly knowledgeable about child development. It's easy to see why families speak so highly of her. LGPNS gave our daughter a joyful first school experience and helped her develop confidence, independence, and a love of learning. It also gave our family a wonderful community. We are so grateful for this past year and would wholeheartedly recommend the Terrific Toddlers program to any family looking for a nurturing first preschool experience.

We attended this amazing school for our PreK experience. We were very fortunate to have a choice…read morebetween attending a public school TK program or a private preschool. We chose Los Gatos Parent Nursery School (aka LGPNS) and it was a great fit for our 5-year-old. I have an elementary school teacher credential and I personally feel my child is going to be 100% prepared for kindergarten after attending LGPNS. The school philosophy emphasizes social-emotional skills, developmentally appropriate curriculum, and play-based, child-directed experiences. Academic skills and school readiness are embedded in their thoughtful curriculum. At the PreK class, this means that during circle time, children raise their hand to speak, practice listening to one friend at a time, and work on sitting still, all while doing literacy development through books and rhymes. They develop fine motor schools during art as they practice pencil grip and use scissors. They get early math skills throughout the day by counting, estimating, comparing and making graphs. There is a daily science center as well. There is plenty of time for outdoor, child-directed free-play too! At this time, children work on gross motor skills at the play structure, bike path, and gymnastics mats. They get wonderful sensory development at the sand box, mud kitchen and water table. Throughout the day, they get lots of support in social emotional skills like self-regulation and navigating peer relationships. Children are guided to solve their own challenges with adult support. Children own the process as much as possible, in an age-appropriate way. The facility is bright, clean, and well-stocked with everything from toys and art supplies to books and science materials. The teachers at the school are well-educated, have years of teaching experience, and have been at the school for a long time. Our bi-racial family has always felt welcome and included at the school, and we love how being at a co-op gives us the chance to meet other parents and build community. The adult-child ratios are great too! This is because parents work in the classroom once a week. I get so much value out of my classroom shifts. It helps me understand my child better when I seem them in different contexts. The teacher is always there to offer observations and advice if I ask. I feel I get to grow and improve as a parent and I can support my child better as a result of being at a co-op. Thank you LGPNS!

I am updating this review after 3 years since my son is now moving on to the school district this…read moremonth :*(. Creative Beginnings is truly the best preschool you can ask for, and specifically with my neurodivergent son, he has progressed and accomplished so much in thanks to the hard work of his teachers and the director. His life would honestly not be the same if he hadn't attended this school for the last 3 years. In fact, his private speech therapist told me that this is the best school she's ever been to. Aside from the accommodations and support they provided my son, I'm amazed at how much our tuition gave us: kung fu, soccer, music teachers visited on a weekly basis, a low student teacher ratio, field trips, and so much more. I think the mix of structure (weekly lesson plans for each class) and free play is perfect for kids as well. I also want to note that the teacher turnover is very low, and most of the main teachers have been there for many many years. In addition to just being a warm, welcoming place, my son also thrived academically here. His school district assessment showed that he is on track academically for kindergarten, thanks to the hard work of his teachers.

Classroom size's seem spacious, the playground is insanely big, facilities seem fine, but need updating. I don't think I'd gel with the director's personality, she seems a bit picky and difficult, like for example if I had my feedback or concerns to be shared or say my kid doesn't have a good day, I would find myself likely debating with her, as she seems quite black and white but that is my feeling and my gut is usually right. Lots of indian children in this school, an observation. It is home based but they really designed it as a center. Overall, meh, for the price I found better places.

They are all a bit shy, so it was very important to me to find a school where the teachers were nurturing and kind and would help them come out of their shell a bit. Grace was exactly what we were looking for. The classes are small, the teachers are amazing and the parent community is so nice. During the last year, the classes were smaller than normal and some of the instruction was on Zoom, so I got a little more insight into what goes on in the classroom than I have in previous years. I can't tell you how impressed I am! Every single activity the kids do is prepared with so much thought. The kids are having fun and learning so much in the process. My oldest two girls left pre-K well prepared for Kindergarten. The school is play based, but they ensure the kids learn everything they need to know for a successful start in elementary school. I can't recommend it enough!

As we conclude our final week at Action Day Lincoln, I wanted to take a moment to formally express my appreciation for two amazing programs that they hosted. The first was the Multicultural Celebration on 2/19/26. I was pleased to see it organized, but I didn't think I would have time to attend. When I arrived that evening for pick up, our child was excited about trying to visit some of the wonderful stations. We only stayed for a short time, but the experience of my child getting a Passport to get stamped at the different country stations and try food and learn about each country was so positive and uplifting. I was so honored to be a part of the Action Day community beautifully representing the diversity and value that each family brings into it. The second was the Innovation Night on 3/19/26. After the experience of the Multicultural Celebration, I made an effort to ensure we had time to explore and enjoy the experience. We spent more time during this event and it was both fun and informative for the children. I could say more about why these events were so impactful, but I'll simply express that the demonstration of inclusion and innovation were so well organized that I can honestly say that they were the two best events I've attended in the almost 10 years we've been with Action Day. I'd like to thank the entire Action Day Lincoln team for hosting these and any others you'll host in the future! We're so grateful to have found Action Day!

Action Day Lincoln has taken such good care of our boy!…read more Our son has severe food allergies and eczema that requires a lot of care and attention. He was in Action Day's infant program from the time he was 5 months until he was 1, then we took a short break and now he's back as a 1.5 years old. I'm writing this review because I had a hard time finding information about how daycares handle food allergies when I was looking through reviews myself. Jamie has done so much to help us feel confident sending our son (who is severely allergic to milk and eggs) to daycare. She worked out plans to keep him safe during meal time when other toddlers are eating his allergens, and ensured staff were all trained in how to handle allergic reactions. She even visited the local fire department to inform them about the severity of his allergies and ensure they were prepared to find their way around the campus should they ever need to. Additionally, our son has a great time every day and all of his teachers have been attentive, warm, professional, and easy to communicate with! Shout out to his current teacher, Miss Maria, who takes extra care to apply lotion to him all day long and does frequent diaper changes to keep his eczema at bay.
