Schools in Costa Mesa, CA

“Both my boys have gone to Coastal over the past few years. My youngest is there now and absolutely loving it! Every day I drop him off, he is happy and excited to see everyone and says hello to all the teachers. Ms. Destinee has been incredible and always has fun activities planned. I love that my son gets to play outside and interact with nature in the garden. Since coming to coastal my son has thrived and is doing so well with his learning. Just this morning I talked to the teacher about him already knowing all his colors!

A huge thanks to the director Ms. Katrina. I’ve know her for several years now and she is truly the best to work with. I always know the kids are in good hands at Coastal. Thank you all very much for the care and attention you give our kids!”

“We are so grateful for the care and love this school has shown our daughter over the years. From the very beginning, the teachers and staff made her feel special and truly valued as an individual. They not only cared for her education but also for her heart, creating an environment where she could grow in faith, confidence, and character.

The strong academics paired with the Christ-centered community gave her the foundation to thrive both inside and outside the classroom. We’ve watched her blossom here—learning, maturing, and becoming more confident in who she is.

This school has been such a blessing to our family, and we couldn’t be more thankful for the dedication and care the staff have poured into our daughter’s life.”

“This will be our third year at Kiddie Academy and we couldn’t be happier!! Miss. Patty and Miss. Natalie, the administrative staff are exceptional!! Always happy, smiling and welcoming. The teachers Miss. Kaitlyn and Miss. Judith are just some of our favorites. The summer program is full of fun and learning. The regular yearly curriculum is enriching and educational. If you are in need of high quality childcare that has a family element then Kiddie Academy of Costa Mesa is for you! Thank you ladies! You are the ones making it extra special!!”

“We absolutely love this school! The teachers and staff are so incredibly loving, kind and invested in each and every kid. The school has been instrumental in shaping our son for the next stage in his academic journey.

It’s clear that the teachers and Ms. Lucy spend a ton of time creating the curriculum and mapping out each school year. From dance classes, bible study, friendship fixers, indoor play, art class and more - each day is interesting for my son.

We cannot say enough good things about this school and pray as he moves to elementary school, that the teachers and staff are as invested as Orange Tree”

“Heritage Montessori has been such a gift to our family. Both of our boys have gone here and we couldn't imagine a better foundation for their early years. You can see the confidence it has built in their daily lives and I am overjoyed with our decision to attend here. This isn't just a school, it's a community you're grateful to be part of. Highly recommend Heritage Montessori to any family looking for something truly exceptional.”

“I absolutely love this preschool/ daycare. It took me so long to find a place where not only my kids feel safe, loved, and learn! Currently have two kids who attend here it's been about a year now since they've joined. My daughter started off in the toddler class for 1 year olds but know she's in the twos. I really like how they have the student to teacher ratio and how they divide the kids by milestones and age groups. When my daughter transitioned into the two I was nervous but she did great! I guess the begin to introduce the kids to their new teachers and other kids as they get sooner to their transition. My other son he loves his teacher he began when he was 3 and now is 4 turning 5 soon. I start telling him how soon he'll be going to a new school and gets sad and upset because he said he loves their school so much! They do great learning activities. We love it here. We're truly fortunate to have found this place who is loving and caring with standards!”

“We couldn’t be happier with this after-school program!
The staff is incredibly caring and attentive, and they make sure the kids feel welcome, safe, and supported every day. My son absolutely loves going — he’s always excited to share the activities he did and the new things he learned.
The program is very organized, offers a great mix of homework help, fun projects, and physical activities, and the communication with parents is excellent.
We feel lucky to have found such a positive and nurturing environment for our child. Highly recommend!”
