Schools in Daly City, CA

“A great experience coming here. The teachers are very kind and caring and are always hosting an interesting and engaging curriculum for the kids. It's a play-based learning school and I feel like my daughter has grown and learned a lot here.”

“I can't say enough praises to this school and it's Principal!The values of the school and it's leadership and teachers are beyond believe!! The way every student and parent is treated at the school is outstanding!All subjects are taught at least 1 year above all other private schools and actually at a High schools level. The education children get at Hilldale is PRICELESS!!PLEASE, TRUST ME, IT IS WORTH YOUR EVERY PENNY AND MORE!!The discipline at school is very strict which is perfect and creates very organized and structured environment, which promotes education, not playing around. Don't take me wrong, they have lots of fun days, activities, parties, etc. "Work hard and play hard", but work is Hilldale's first priority. It gave my daughter an invaluable experience and education which prepared her for high school better than all other students in her grade from different private schools. Hilldale school leadership will always accommodate a student whether he/she is above or below the average and needs some curriculum adjustment. There are many, many more plusses and advantages at Hilldale, that i can't even fit all in this review. The most personable and amazing principal, who cares about every single child GENUINELY and is always willing to help.If you are looking for THE BEST EDUCATION in Bay Area, this school is for you!”

“We spent over 2 years at BK DC and would've stayed longer if we hadn't moved! We joined in the early months of shelter-in-place and have been impressed by the professionalism, responsiveness, and proactive communication of the administration and teachers. Their holiday schedule is great for working families, and their staffing is consistent and reliable. Thank you Building Kidz!”

“After searching for different kinds of preschools in San Francisco, I decided to enroll my son at Young World Preschool. I love its quite location. The whole entire school is much bigger than I saw in San Francisco. There are lots of big classrooms inside, and these rooms are very bright. The most important thing about the classroom is that they are CLEAN, and also that the toys in each classroom are washed often.Young World Preschool has met all of my expectations.First of all, all of the teachers are experienced, patient, and warm. They have their special ways to teach children, they have story time every morning, and kids have a lot of fun in it. One unique advantage of Young World Preschool is that it accepts children as young as 2 years old, and teachers are able to help kids to stop using diaper at school. Wow, my son stop using diaper, I owe his teacher, because the teacher has had lots of patient with my son. Now he has successfully stopped needing diaper and uses his potty.Second, Young World has many security cameras installed in each classroom and the outer walkway. And also there is one security guard bird eye system installed on the front gate. Everyone who needs to enter the school needs to be checked by staff. Every kid in each room can be supervised by these cameras.Third, my son has a small amount of homework every few days. So as parents, I can work with my son at home, and also I know what the teacher teaches him every day at school. Now my son really likes to go to school, because he likes to learn from his teacher.Finally, Young World has many activities, such as dance, piano, ect. There is a big dance room for children to dance in. Sometimes, the teacher brings children outside to visit place. Also, another thing I need to mention is that Young World preschool has one big area playground for kid to play in. Everyday children have time for recess. BY the way, Young World has holiday event shows every year. Every student has a chance dress up, dance, sing song, and even play piano on the stage. There are so many fun activities for them.”

“Our son has attended here for the last two years. He absolutely loves this place. The people here are loving, Attentive and careful. He has learned so much and has made so many friends. He feels safe here , it's likebhis second home.”

“We were very lucky to have found Latchkey for our 2023 summer camp option. First, and most importantly, the staff are genuinely engaged with the children and enjoy what they are are doing. Ms. Nicole and Mr. Matt (along with the rest of the staff) were constantly being talked about how fun they were by my daughter when we picked her up. Second, the hours of operation were perfect for us working parents. Latchkey offers standard 8am-5pm summer camp hours with the option of early 7am drop-off or late 6pm pick-up for a nominal cost if needed. The regular 8am-5pm hours were so much more generous and practical for the working parent than almost all other summer camp options I had researched (most of which started at 9am and ended 3:00/3:30pm, which would never had worked out for us). Third, the activities and excursions offered are varied and fun. They had a TK/K small summer camp group which did not go on all-day excursions like the older kids did, which was great because my K-rising daughter would not have been able to handle all-day field trips. The patience the staff had with the children was especially admirable (my daughter cried at drop-off everyday and still the staff were so nice and understanding each day). I totally recommend Latchkey as a great summer camp option and I'm looking forward to next year's enrollment. It's run by wonderful people and they deserve much appreciation.”
