“Huge thanks to the most caring staff at Scrabble Montessori who took care of our kids just like family. This was the first school for our twins and we were lucky to have great teachers like Miss Kshama and Miss Juliana. Thank you all!”
“We enrolled our son here when he was 4.5months and now he is 17months. He was in the Lenido class (Ms Karima and Ms Grace) and graduated to the Willow class (Ms Badria and Ms Ariana) a couple months ago. Our family has enjoyed the company of the teachers at Lenido and Willow classrooms and we are very grateful for the learning & development our son has had in his formative years as an infant at MCC. Ms Karima & Ms Grace are definitely a godsend especially when parents have to leave their little ones and return back earlier than they wish to work. I truly believe that my child was safe and happy at his place, his eyes light up when he sees Ms Karima/Grace as he was there from the start as a baby.”
“Learn and Play Montessori's Centerville campus is truly exceptional! The dedicated staff creates a nurturing environment where children thrive academically and socially. The Montessori approach is seamlessly integrated into their curriculum, fostering independence and a love for learning. The classrooms are well-equipped, promoting hands-on exploration and stimulating creativity. The teachers are not only knowledgeable but also passionate about each child's development. The strong sense of community is evident, and the open communication between staff and parents enhances the overall experience. The attention to individualized learning sets Learn and Play Montessori apart, ensuring that every child receives personalized support. It's a place where education meets genuine care, making it an excellent choice for any parent seeking a top-notch Montessori experience for their child.”
“Genius Kids has been an incredible experience for our son since he was 13 months old. Ms. Sugam and her team have created a warm, engaging, and structured environment where our son feels happy, safe, and excited to learn every day. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to build confidence, creativity, and social skills, and we’ve seen amazing growth in these areas.
We especially love the daily yoga sessions, Fun Friday themes, special holiday celebrations, and the public speaking program, all of which have contributed to his personal development. The teachers are caring and attentive, and we truly appreciate the open communication and regular updates about our son's progress.
We’re grateful for the positive impact Genius Kids has had on our son, and we wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful program to any family looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child”
“Our kid is studying here and we are extremely happy with his progress. Some salient points:. The school gives personal attention to each kid and provides study/homework material matching his/her skills. My kid is learning well here without any pressure. And I would like to add that his knowledge is very advanced for his age. His teacher ensures he is interested in his studies and learning well even while she is meeting the educational needs of other students. . School takes care of wellbeing of their children. When our kid was bullied by another kid, school took immediate notice of it and acted on it even before we raised it to them.. My kid loves going to school for the overall welcoming atmosphere. . The extended care program has helped my kid gel well with older kids. I also see that it has improved his personal and communication skills by playing/interacting with them. So he is with his age peers during the school time and with older kids at extended care.. The school's parent bodies are a pleasant group to contribute our ideas/time with no pressure. And the school events held from time to time are fun filled. . Children are barred from using offensive words.I strongly recommend this school. And the most important thing is it is less than half the fees of other private schools like Stratford or Fremont Christian school. Do not be carried away by the school grounds or old buildings. Instead meet the teachers and then decide for yourself. I am really glad my kid is studying here.”
“I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the amazing experience my child has had at young explorer.As a parent, I am constantly looking for the best education and care for my child, and I am happy to say that I have found that with your school.The teachers have been exceptional in their ability to create a nurturing and stimulating learning environment for my child. They have been patient, attentive, and creative in their approach to teaching, and my child has thrived under their care.The curriculum has been comprehensive and well-rounded, including a range of academic, social, and emotional development activities. My child has learned so much and I am amazed at the progress they have made. I especially appreciate the emphasis on play-based learning, as it has allowed my child to explore and discover in a fun and engaging way.The communication from Ms.Aruna has been excellent, with regular updates and feedback on my child's progress. I feel confident that the teachers and staff truly care about my child's well-being and education, and I appreciate the open and honest communication.Overall, I am thrilled with our experience at young explorer, and I would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a high-quality education and caring environment for their child.

“Genius Kids Mission is a fantastic place. Ms. V and Ms. K are such inspirational and caring teachers. We send our twin boys there. One of the best decisions we have made for their growth and development.”

“My daughter goes to this daycare from 2 years now and she absolutely loves it there. The best part is they are one of the only few schools that offer the best of both worlds- Montessori plus play based learning. They are now getting into STEM based programs which is a great. The way they keep kids and parents involved is amazing and the staff treats us all like we are all part of the big family! Throughout the year kids and parents look forward to all kind of events field trips to library, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Halloween, Christmas, Graduation and the best of all Science Day! Kids absolutely loved the science day last week where they got to experience simple and safe science experiments at school. STEM based program here kindles their curiosity in all activities.”

“(Current parent leaves a message) LEP is a Chinese-English bilingual Montessori school. It runs the school based on Montessori concepts. It uses Montessori teaching aids to build children's cognition in all aspects, especially helpful for understanding abstract mathematics/scientific concepts. In addition, Montessori education also focuses on cultivating children’s curiosity, independence and expression skills. The principal has been engaged in early childhood education in different countries for many years and has been exposed to a variety of teaching models. He has rich experience and understands how to use the advantages of different teaching schools to help children grow. Moreover, the principal is very willing to listen to and accept parents' suggestions, and will make rolling adjustments to parents' requirements at any time. It is also very humane to keep pace with the times.My thoughts after my son has been studying for more than three monthsMontessori education advocates limited freedom and introduces moderate social norms, which makes a son who is cautious by nature more secure. At the same time, it cultivates his concentration and observation skills. He can play with toys or explore things on his own for a long time. The part that surprised me the most was the puzzles. Because I explored the teaching aids every day, my image and spatial cognition improved significantly. Within three months, the number of puzzles I could complete on my own increased from 6 to 40 pieces.And the daily circle time in Chinese and English makes his English songs, Chinese songs and poems catchy. The ability to interact with others has gradually matured, and communication with others is no longer timid and shy. Many daily activities, such as eating, dressing, going to the toilet, etc., can be completed by oneself. I am very happy that he has good interactions with teachers and classmates, and can learn knowledge, moral character, and social skills from play and life. He looks forward to going to school every day.Parents at the school have a very active relationship. They discuss school affairs or share interesting and delicious places. They meet every Thursday after school to walk their children together in the park. Potlucks are held regularly, and everyone is invited to their children’s birthday parties. Enthusiastic parents will also write newsletters to introduce their children and their families, and everyone is familiar with each other.”

“I am so thankful to Hearts and Hands for taking such good care of my son. He just started kindergarten and moved out of Hearts and Hands after spending 3 years there. I saw him grow from a shy young baby to a confident 5 year old. I am grateful to the teachers over there, especially Ms. Hazel who nurtured him with so much love and patience. She is such a warm person and is so passionate about teaching. My son learnt so much in his preschool class with Ms Hazel. He loved being there and we were never worried about him as we knew he was in good hands. We miss the school very much and will always be grateful for all the love and the care my son got there.”

“Palm Academy has been the best choice we’ve made as a family. From the beginning Ms. Ruth and all of the teachers made our family feel welcome, loved, and at ease to leave our first 8-month-old at daycare. Fast forward she is now in the TK class and thriving academically and socially. When I had a second baby it was such an easy decision to bring her to Palm Academy to the infant class.We love all the staff and can see how much they all care about the children! I have to make a special shout-out to Ms. Ruth, Ms. Li-Ping, Ms. Sasmita, and Mr. Christopher who have consistently been there for years and have helped my children grow!”
“Our son had a very good pre-school experience at Olive Children Preschool. Ms. Sheela is very caring, loving and attending. Every day when we pick up our son, she always have some interesting story about him to share with us and we have a good laugh together.The school have different creative activities everyday. Our son always brings home some interesting hand crafted projects. E.g. a doll made from a piece of cloth, a 3-D safari made from paper and stickers, painted leaves etc.The school offers hot lunch that is cooked and distributed by their central kitchen everyday. The food is well balanced among vegetable, carb, protein and fruit.The teachers are also very experienced with dealing with age specific development challenges. Our son attended the school when he was 2 year 4 months old without potty training. After we indicated to the teachers that we'd like to start potty training, the teachers were very cooperative and they brought him to potty every 1 hour. Their help accelerated our son's potty training as he was able to go diaper free without accidents during the day in 2 weeks, and in 4 weeks he was able to go diaper free at night as well. The progress greatly exceeded our expectation.”
“My daughter started preschool here during the Covid pandemic so it was a difficult transition for all of us. Although we weren't allowed in during this time the teachers and the director were really great at communicating with us. They sent us photos, videos, topics of the day, naps and intake. They provide a good variety of snacks and lunch as well, as working parents this helped us a ton. They are open all year round, except during federal holidays and they always have wonderful activities planned throughout the year. After starting here I noticed my daughter to be more social, confident, improved writing, and even knew several Spanish words. I know my daughter enjoyed her time here. As our first experience with preschool I would say it was a great one.”
“The school activities focused on science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM). It provides interactive lessons, projects, and challenges to engage students in hands-on learning experiences. The platform aims to foster creativity, critical thinking in young minds.As a parent I'm not stressed about pressuring my kids or affecting our family time. I find most of the learning/game based reviews of concepts happening in the classroom which leaves us free for other extra curricular activities”
“Great teachers, curriculum, environment. My son was very shy and attached to me entering the school. After the first 2 days he was off on his own. The teachers are very experienced w kids. My son enjoys coming everyday.”
“My son has been attending Learn and Play since he was 2 years old and I am so pleased with the school curriculum. He has learned so much. He knows how to write his first and last name. He knows how to add and subtract and talk about what he’s learned in science. He practices handwriting daily. They also teach him many life skills that builds his confidence and independence. But most importantly he enjoys it so much he likes to show me what he’s learned when he is home. The front staff Ms Ana, Ms Rajbir, and Ms Kelsey are always so friendly and welcoming. Ms Lupe teaches Spanish and has my son yapping colors and numbers fluently. Ms Rania the School Director is always available and supportive and knows all the students. My son’s teachers are Ms Rose, Ms Dhillon, and Ms Kris and they are absolutely amazing. I was able to observe them in class and how they teach and care for the children left me speechless. They are so patient, wonderful, and organized. It’s no wonder my son has learned so much in their class. I could easily have him start TK at his older brother’s public school next semester but I’ve made the decision to have him attend TK at LAPMS and continue to make the 2 stops. This should be a testament on how much I love this school and their program curriculum.”
“The teachers are very thoughtful and caring towards the kids. They are very invested in children’s overall development. And very open to working with the families to provide children with the best environment to grow.”

“Our little one has been here since he was 10month in infant class and now has been transited to toodler class for a while. He has so much fun at Little Steamers every day, and has been taken very good care of.I love that all the teachers at Little Steamers are professional, loving and caring. They also prepare so many fun, educational and inspiring activities for young kids, such as painting, handcrafting, sensory play as well as circle time. There are also many opportunities for parents to be engaged.AM / PM snacks as well as lunch are included in the program. The classrooms are remodeled, divided by age groups, cleaned and sanitized daily.Highly recommended to those who are looking for high quality daycare for their little ones!”
“My 3 year old has been attending for 4 months now and her communication skills alone have significantly improved. Staff really stays on top of each child's individual development. Every time I enter class I feel part of the Gulu family. Please check it out for yourself.”
“My daughter has been at Sunshine kids for last 2 years in their preschool program. The teachers and staff are very gentle and were a big help during potty training days. The staff is very polite and flexible. We love the various in school activities - music, language classes (hindi and english), art activities, celebrations and specially the enthusiasm in kids during chineese new year, thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations with singing and dancing.”
“I enrolled both of my kids at Genius Kids, Tech Drive and we are happy with the experience my kids had there. From day one, they easily connected with the teachers, which made the transition smooth and enjoyable for them. One aspect I appreciate about the school is their consistent communication and transparency. Every day, they send out photos and videos of the activities kids do via Bright Wheel app, allowing us to stay updated on their progress. They also incorporate activities like dancing, yoga, Halloween parade which adds an element of fun and creativity to their learning journey as well memorable exp for both kids and parents. They also hold review meetings to discuss the progress of the Kid. We definitely have seen significant growth and development in my kid under the guidance of all the Teachers. Special mention to Shruthi, who has been supportive and responsive to any concerns or questions we have had as parents. Her patience and positive attitude have made a difference in our experience with the school. I highly recommend it to any parents looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their children.”
“We have had nothing but a wonderful experience at The Learning Tree. The teachers are kind & caring and our children always have a good day. They have fun crafts throughout the year as well as holiday programs, a huge outdoor play area with grass, and extracurricular activities also. Children get lots of play and time outside. :) Would highly recommend!”
“ABC Magic Moments was one of the earliest preschools accredited by NAEYC and consistently passes unannounced inspections from the California Department of Social Services with excellent ratings. But there is so much more to it. We loved the school at first sight and continued to do so for the next nine years. Many parents have shared that they feel fortunate to have found such a preschool. For us, it's a 15 to 20-minute ride from home, but it's entirely worth it. We know parents who drive even longer and have stayed with the school for many years. My girls were always eager to go to school after a weekend or vacation and were always reluctant to leave each day. The school has an open-door policy, allowing parents to visit any time of day. You'll always see children deeply engaged, whether outdoors or indoors, and they aren't afraid to come up and chat with you, as you are just another interesting part of the world they are exploring.Both our daughters attended from ages 2 to 5, through preschool and kindergarten. They thrived, becoming happy, confident, well-mannered, and well-educated children, eager to learn and ready for elementary school. Most importantly, they remained true to themselves--the big personalities and quirks they showed when young aged well through the years. Their differences were respected, honored, and encouraged at this school. We also saw children of various races, religions, dress preferences, dietary and allergy needs, and some facing family adversities. All of them enjoyed their journey together, learning to appreciate the diversity of the world and to recognize the intrinsic value in people. My older daughter is now in 5th grade, and her teacher has praised her for choosing good friends. I attribute this largely to her preschool years, where she learned what good behavior looks like.”
“We enrolled our child at Nature’s Gift in the Pre-K class recently and am very satisfied with them. They ensure the kids are safe, nurture consistent and challenging learning for all the children and provide a caring environment. My child has thrived in school and I believe some of that success is because of the wonderful teachers at Nature’s Gift. Ms. Megha and Ms. Lily especially made the experience memorable and such a joy for our child.”
“I was lucky enough to get an appointment with Mrs Mei last year October, when everyone seemed to have registered their kids somewhere.I like that Mission San Jose Children’s Center is in line with Montessori method of teaching. And I especially love that Mrs Mei is such a loving and caring teacher! There were kids eagerly waiting in line to enter the classroom on the first day I dropped off my son. None of the kids were crying nor having a hard time saying goodbye to parents. That is how I know for sure this is the right place to go!And thank you Mrs Mei for all your holiday gifts. We love the sunglasses and candies.I highly recommend this place!”
“My daughter attends this pre school and she loves it. Every morning she looks forward to going to school that speaks of the care she is given. At 3 years I don't expect Academics rather a place where she can learn basic hygiene and healthy habits. I am proud to say that my daughter has learnt those here. And this session she is learning phonics, planets and surroundings and what not! That's an added bonus for me!”

“My daughter started in September with pretty much zero English and a very very strong attachment to parents. It would have been hard for her even if she did speak English, but without the skills to make friends or express herself or understand what's going on she was having a very hard time. We are pretty sure given the situation Keen Learners on Alder was the best choice for her as a first English-speaking school for several reasons:1. all four teacher in Room 2 are so kind and caring. They are so sweet and patient, so understanding and genuinely caring - they made a world of difference for my daughter and she quickly started actually enjoying school. I firmly believe that loving and kind teachers are the #1 factor in choosing a preschool for a young child, and we found the one. 2. their approach to academics is very strong and effective. From Sept to April, they managed to bring my daughter to the level of the rest of the group, without having to treat her differently or without slowing down other kids. This is amazing progress considering: she started with zero English, zero reading, zero writing; she is 5 and was with the kids who were already learning to read and write; she only went full time starting January, and until then she went twice a week. In April she reads, writes and talks in English. She is fully prepared to the next stepS The results are outstanding, kudos to the school staff!3. The school has multiple concerts and celebrations of American holidays and holidays from other cultures. It's just so fun there! There is always something going on. They organize very cute and well prepared mini concerts for parents, they actually give small goodie bags to the kids and treat them to special meals for the holidays. They had Santa come for Christmas, they had a science fair where they helped the kids present and do such a good job. 4. the director Ms. Madhu is very involved in the process and daily life. She is very informed about each kid's progress even though she is not one of the teachers. You can stop her on any day and she will tell you exactly how your child is doing, what they said today and how their progress is. It's very reassuring.The school is in a smaller building but it's light, bright and colorful inside. The playground is very nice too, much much nicer than some schools I have seen. Highly recommend! We will miss the school. Special thanks to Ms. Faiza, Ms. Megha, Ms. Pooja and Ms. Priya.”
“Most health conscious and child centric day care I visited (for example, child size toilet and child height wash basin, boy/girl separated restrooms). Most spacious outdoor play area with tall trees, outdoor xylophones, child cabins and sand play area, in addition to typical slides. (Unlike many daycares with old tricycles lying around - I think it’s not safe to have kids with mixed activities where some ride bikes while others walk/run).It’s also one of the best places that offer hot food cooked onsite for both breakfast and lunch. The kitchen is spotless. The most impressive thing is they clearly list each child’s dietary needs on the table with color coding beyond allergy, for example, no egg, pork ok but no beef, vegetarians etc.it’s also unique that they invest in security cameras and parents can watch their kid all day long in an app.The curriculum is good with comprehensive evaluations 3 times a year. Overall, very impressive. The only thing on my wishlist they don’t have is the Montessori style and some toys are a bit worn out (but still very clean, the classroom carpets are so spotless).”
“The Teachers at this school are amazing! I have a 4 year daughter enrolled here and its been really cool to see her develop and learn so much from this amazing staff. I highly recommend enrolling your child in the phonics class as well. Ms Lisa, Lala, Priya have all been fantastic, sweet, and caring people who've taken great care of my daughter.
Thanks,”
