Schools in Carmichael, CA

“We have had such an incredible experience with this child care center over the past several years. My daughter has attended for both preschool and now for before-and-after school care, and I truly can’t say enough positive things about the program and the people who run it.

When she first started, they potty trained her with ease and have been very supportive in helping with her social emotional growth and meeting milestones. She is also academically advanced, something I 100% attribute to the strong foundation and support she’s received here.

The owners are absolutely amazing people who genuinely care about the children and their families. They are always incredibly accommodating and go above and beyond to meet our needs and always very responsive. The staff are equally wonderful—kind, attentive, and truly great with the kids.

They create such a warm and engaging environment. The holiday events they organize are always thoughtful and fun, giving the children something special to look forward to and helping create lasting memories. I also really appreciate that they provide nutritious meals and offer extracurricular activities such as art, stem, and sports that keep the kids engaged and give them opportunities they may not have otherwise.

Most importantly, I trust them wholeheartedly. Knowing my daughter is safe, happy, and well cared for gives me complete peace of mind. This daycare has truly become like family and has been a lifeline for me as a single mom. I’m so grateful we found them—it has made such a positive impact on our lives.”

“Blessings to the coffee plus the service during Sunday and through the entire week for impressive focus on how to do the right thing to my personal experience and I'm not connected to the server”

“Love, love, love this center! We have been attending since it was called Apple A Day.

When we first started, my child was 23 months old and nonverbal. Now, at almost 30 months, he is talking and we don’t see ourselves leaving anytime soon. Ms. Fola and all of the teachers are incredibly attentive to both the children’s needs and parents’ concerns.

As a first-time mother, I truly appreciate how patient and supportive they have been with both me and my child. They also provide helpful information and guidance along the way. The curriculum is very productive, and I love receiving daily updates through the Brightwheel app, it’s so helpful while away from my child.

I am beyond grateful for this center and all the amazing ladies who work there. Thank you for everything! ❤”

“I am able to bring my son somewhere I feel like he is safe, enriched, cared for, and reasonably priced. I also really enjoy the quality of the meals provided to the children.”

“We love Wonderland! My twins have attended for over 3 years. I would definitely recommend this preschool/afterschool program. From the woman at the front desk to the teachers and directors everyone is friendly and knows us by name.
I believe this preschool set my twins up for success in kindergarten and they continue to help my children succeed in Wonderland's afterschool program. The directors are constanly helping to improve the facility and make fun activities for the kids. The faculty treat the kids like their own. The van drivers are very safe drivers and even care if your kid remembers their jacket or water bottle!
When we first signed up they offered us to do a walk thru and I was able to see everywhere my kid was going to be. It made me feel so safe and comfortable. The facility is clean and organized, a wonderful place for your child to thrive!
Wonderland uses an app to communicate with parents and they are so responsive and update you about your kids.

We highly recommend this place!”

“MCS is truly an amazing preschool! Directors Galina and Oleg are wonderful people who care so much about each and every child, and it genuinely shows in everything they do.

Our son came from another preschool, and we saw a positive change in his behavior almost immediately after starting at MCS. The transition was smooth, and we never once questioned our decision to switch. He still talks about his teachers and the staff and absolutely adores them all.

They are very particular about who they hire, and it reflects in the quality of care and education. Each classroom is organized, calm, and spotless. MCS is a true Montessori school, and they stay authentic to the philosophy in their teaching and environment.

We are so grateful we found MCS and would recommend it wholeheartedly to any family looking for a nurturing, structured, and genuinely caring preschool.”

“Smallville Preschool has been such a wonderful environment for my son. The teachers are wonderful, he is learning so much and brings home the most wonderful projects. Staff turnover is very low and I appreciate that he can remain at Smallville for TK.

The school also has a fabulous outdoor play area with shade, perfect to let my rambunctious son burn some energy. Also, the special activities are fantastic. They do an especially nice job for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day that is really above and beyond.

Smallville has provided an enriching and fun day for my son and gives me so much peace of mind as a working mom.”

“My son started here recently. This place takes care to know all of the parents and children. They were diligent to make sure that his needs and home routine were discussed. The few times I have had to call or go in to talk to Miss Paula, she knew who I was and who my child was. It really feels like a good place for my son to be. Especially seeing admin step in to help with the rooms when needed.”

“I have my kids enrolled here, they are in two different classes. The teachers are caring and kind, they keep me updated on all of the goings on. They pick my kids up from school which is hard to find and they are so easy to work with and help me with accommodations for my kids. I am so lucky to have found this gem. I had my kids at a daycare close by and let me tell you that place was awful. All of the staff are approachable and helpful. It's been 2 years of having my kids in care here and I am very satisfied with everything they do for my family.”

“It’s been years since my daughter Flora has gone here. They were so caring and thoughtful that to this day I remember how awesome they were to Flora. Now that I have found this school again I will absolutely be recommending them to all my friends and family.”
