Schools in Covina, CA

“Today is a bittersweet day as it is my daughter's last day at KinderCare Covina before she begins her journey to kindergarten. I'm overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible teachers who have played such a vital role in shaping who my baby is today.

My daughter started here just a week after her 2nd birthday, where she joined the 2-3 year old class. She was welcomed with warmth, patience, and love by Ms. Sandy and Ms. Monica who are absolute gems; Always nurturing, consistent, and full of energy & patience. They created such a happy and safe space where my baby could explore, play, and build confidence. Their ability to balance structure with creativity made her early learning experiences both educational and fun. I will always appreciate how much they cared for her and helped her develop those early social-emotional and classroom-readiness skills.

It was in Mrs. Rani's Pre-K & TK class where everything came together in the most extraordinary way though. If I could give more than five stars for Mrs. Rani, I would in a heartbeat. She is nothing short of phenomenal. She is rare kind of teacher who brings passion, wisdom, and heart into EVERY moment of her teaching.

Academically, my daughter flourished under her care. Mrs. Rani's ability to introduce foundational skills in reading, math, science, and critical thinking is masterful. But what sets her apart even more is her emphasis on the WHOLE CHILD. She guided my daughter to become independent, kind, emotionally aware, and eager to learn. Traits that are just as important as academics in my eyes, and ones I know will stay with her for life. Mrs. Rani built a classroom culture rooted in respect, curiosity, and compassion. She believed in my daughter and gave her the tools to believe in herself. Thanks to her, my daughter is not only prepared for Kindergarten, she's excited and confident about what's next!

And of course I can't go without also thanking the amazing Director & Assistant Director, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Arlene. They have been such a dependable and positive presence, always on top of communication, and always a fresh, smiling face to greet us at drop-off and pick-up. Their leadership has truly helped make KinderCare Covina feel like a supportive, well-run community.

And lastly, a wonderful part of this school (and probably my favorite thing I like to tell inquiring friends/parents who are unsure about sending their baby to daycare/preschool) is the KinderCare app! It kept us closely connected to our daughter's day. Getting updates in real-time, from what she ate (and how much), to how long she napped, to photos of her learning and playing, to the weekly curriculum; It gave us such peace of mind and made us feel like we were right there with her. It's an amazing tool for any parent who loves being in the loop.

KinderCare Covina has been more than just a daycare or a preschool for us. It has truly been a second home. I can't thank the staff enough for creating such a positive and enriching environment for my daughter.

To any parent considering this center: if you want a place where your child will be seen, supported, challenged, and deeply cared for, THIS IS IT!!! And if your child is lucky enough to have Ms. Sandy, Ms. Monica, and/or Mrs. Rani, know that they are in the BEST possible hands.

With all my heart, THANK YOU TO OUR FAMILY at KinderCare Covina. You've made a lasting difference in our daughter's life.”

“I am so happy I was able to get my son into this school. Everyone from the administration, teachers, cafeteria workers and janitors I have run into are GREAT! I was on the waitlist and when the time came it is a big packet but in all honesty I feel that the more they ask the safer my son will be. My son started at 18 mths and I was very nervous because I was not sure how he was going to be treated. However, it is so nice and relieving to see how they ALL are with him. I went to so many schools and I did not like them but here I am so grateful! I highly recommend this school and care facility. Have another baby coming and when that time comes I hope I will be able to put my baby there when needed. They also do very cute things when holidays come around. Thankful for this school and for the treatment and welcoming of our family.”

“My son (almost 2 1/2 years old) has been going here for a couple of months and we love it! He is way behind on his language/speaking, and the teacher has told us that she spends extra time with him one on one. We have seen a big difference since coming here. He gets excited to point out letters and make the sounds, and he is now trying to say words. Before coming here, everything was "da". He also has an issue with playing too rough and wanting to wrestle, and they have worked with him on that and seen big improvements. The school is clean and organized and there is a great playground in the back. I have dropped in at all hours of the day and have never seen anything that would worry me. The teachers seem very attentive, and every day when I pick up my son he is sitting in one of the caregivers lap because he loves her so much. They have also helped with potty training. We have put down a deposit for our baby girl that is on the way (only the Grand location has infant care though) and we can't wait for her to start too!”

“I'm using my mom's account to write this but I randomly was thinking about this preschool. I went here in 2009 or 2010 I think. And it was a great experience, in my opinion, they could be kind of strict but it's for the best. I remember the ballet classes, the on-stage performances, and the fun field trips.”

“Our girls attended Ready Set Grow for preschool. I absolutely love this school! The child to teacher ratio is great. From visual and hands on learning, music, dance, outdoor play. This school was everything our girls needed in continuing their journey to their future. One hundred percent recommend this school to anyone looking for quality care and education. I know that my children we're personally taken care of. They also hire a professional photographer for Spring and Holiday photos! Thank you so much for helping our girls grow We miss you all!”
