Schools in Mission Viejo, CA

“I like Kiddie Academy because of the people who work there — they are very welcoming and friendly, and the teachers are caring and attentive. I really like the atmosphere: it feels cozy and very clean. I also want to especially mention their app, through which they send all the information about the child throughout the day. It answers so many questions right away and makes communication very convenient.

My child is adapting quickly to this wonderful daycare. Thank you!”

“Great place for kids. Special shout out to Miss Mylee and Ms Vanessa for making sure our little one is safe, happy and growing with other kids. We appreciate all that you do!”

“If you’re looking for a place for your kid to learn while playing, this is it! We did the parent and me classes here and then moved on to 3 year old class which was an amazingly easy transition in terms of separation anxiety. The number of teachers and working parents to kids ratio is excellent as well, with typically 2 teachers and 2 working parents, so one grown up per 4-5 kids. Teachers are all amazing and nice too, our son had a hard time telling us who was his favorite and normally naming all of them. As a parent you also get to be in the classroom with the kids 1-3 times a month, which is great!”

“We love this preschool! They have the most incredible outdoor setup with tons of new play areas out there every day. The teachers are so nurturing to our kiddos, and the families and students are so friendly. I looked at many preschools before enrolling, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to send our kids here.”

“Phenomenal program. Top notch teachers, play based learning, lots of outdoor exploration and play, loving and safe. Preschool and early childhood education the way it should be done.”

“This is an amazing place to send your kiddos! My child started going when he was 18 months. Before this he was at an in home daycare and we felt like he was starting to fall behind with speech and walking. Within a few weeks, village turned things around. Ms Marieva, Estephanie, Naghma from the infant room made us feel comfortable during our first two tours and even had him join a circle time before we committed and a meet and greet before he started. The teachers are so loving, kind but also firm. Regardless of what time of day we stopped by, the kids were well tempered and the teachers were calm. They also had a lot of crafts and fun pictures to take home.

He moved up to the 2-3 class and Ms Lauren and Monika made it a smooth transition for him! They have Montessori time each day to choose and complete activities, tons of art and time playing outside.

The owners Sam and Nayna are the cherry on top. They know all the kids and parents, are never too busy to chat or ask questions and didn’t pressure us at all when we were touring, they wanted to make sure it was a good fit both ways. They proactively communicate and plan fun events for the entire school. In fact, teachers on a daily basis were highly communicative letting us know if they didn’t eat much (in the infant class), why they changed their clothes if dirty and if they seemed to feeling under the weather. Highly recommend this place, you will not regret it!!”
