Schools in Corte Madera, CA

“We have been sending our son here for years. He loves the other kids and most importantly his teachers. The facilities are great, a converted elementary school lends itself perfectly to a daycare. The teachers are always doing projects and working with the kids on their “basics” I know our son is going to be ready for TK when the time comes!”

“Educare is such a wonderful school. We had our son at a more strict, more well-known Montessori and it didn’t feel right (too sterile, no smiles!) — then we found Educare and my son has absolutely thrived here.

The teachers and staff blend a high degree of learning with fun, they host so many great events to learn about different cultures, and it’s a total bonus that the kids learn in both Spanish and English.

As we’re heading to kindergarten this fall, it’s clear that the Educare kids are extremely well prepared to enter kindergarten with confidence. And if you’re planning to be in the LCM public schools, it’s awesome for the kids to have so many familiar Educare kids at their elementary school.

I’m truly grateful that we found Educare and want to spread the word — they didn’t show up as prominently in my original search as some of the preschools with a more ‘elite’ reputation. But now that I’ve seen many friends go through many different pre-schools, I can say with confidence that Educare stands out for nurturing and preparing kids for kindergarten — socially, emotionally and academically. Moving my son to Educare is one of the best parenting decisions I’ve made.”

“CMLC is a gem of a preschool. The teachers are empathetic and supportive; they nurture a love of learning and discovery in the children -- whether it be mixing paint together to create new colors, or identifying plants and animals during Friday's "natural classroom". The summer camp is also wonderful, with a different theme each week, and the opportunity to pick non-consecutive weeks. The school community is great, and we feel engaged and well-informed as parents. We receive an email summarizing each week, with photos. Parents have a conference with teachers twice per year, and the teachers write beautiful letters to each child about their personalities, strengths and growth. Additionally, there are class playdates and family activities throughout the school year. We love CMLC and can't imagine a better preschool for our children.”
