“We're so glad we ended up at Genius Learning. We enrolled our daughter when she was 3.5 and she did not speak or understand any Mandarin. It's been about two years and now, she can recite many poems and songs in Mandarin. The school is clean, organized, bright, and happy. Our daughter enjoys the many creative art projects and has made many friends. Thanks Genius Learning for taking care of and teaching our daughter, especially during the challenging COVID period!”

“Little Hugs Preschool is a home away from home. Here are just a few highlights that make it so great:-The staff are more than awesome and treat the kids like their own-They are attentive and communicate well with both parents and kids-They are quick to take precautions -They have annual events, special guests, and fun festive days -They take tons of pictures (I still look back at them)-The facility is clean and organized -The kids learn while playing and have a blast-They serve breakfast, lunch, and snacksThe list goes on. My son and daughter both attended and loved it. So much so that my daughter wants to intern there when she's old enough . Thank you Little Hugs fam for starting our kids off on the right foot in their learning path. Miss you all!”

“Friends to Parents was an awesome and great place for our son. We are sad to see him leave for Kindergarten. All of the teachers were very compassionate and loving. They made a bid difference in our child's life. He really opened up socially and made lots of friends. I highly recommend Friends to Parents.”

“Excellent, I just enrolled my son and I am very satisfied so far. They are great. They provide updates through the App which is great. They are very responsive when you have something to discuss or ask.”

“I chanced upon them too late but the month spent here was great! The place is very well organized and they always have a theme of the month and teach based on this theme. The outdoors area is great and feels safe. The teachers are lovely. Thank you so much”

“My grandson currently goes to this school. He started when he was 2. This school has done an exceptional job developing his toddler milestones. He has become more independent and his vocabulary has grown. I would recommend any parent to send their kids here especially at 2 years old”

“Mills Montessori is a place that holds a special spot in my heart. My child began her journey here when she was just 2 years old, and she spent 1.5 wonderful years at this school. I would have continued her education here, but due to a work-related move to the South, we had to say our goodbyes.When seeking a preschool for your child, three key factors stand out:Teachers: The teachers at Mills Montessori are truly exceptional. My daughter was fortunate to have Miss Tati and Miss Dianna as her primary educators for most of her time at this school, and they were both remarkable. Despite my daughter being a picky eater and somewhat shy, she quickly developed a strong bond with both of these teachers and would often refer to them as her friends. Currently, she is under the guidance of Miss Breanna, who is also doing an outstanding job.Communication: The school excels in keeping parents informed. They promptly share news, event updates, and monthly food menus. The use of the Brightwheel app facilitates seamless communication between parents and the school, with responses typically received within 24 hours.Timings: Mills Montessori offers a variety of time options to cater to parents' needs, including 9-12, 9-2:30, and additional one-hour options, each with its corresponding fees. This flexibility allows parents to choose the timing that best suits their requirements.Lastly, I must mention the director, Miss Simin. My interactions with her were always pleasant and reassuring. Being a grandmother herself she has a unique understanding of the challenges parents face and is ever-willing to lend a sympathetic ear when you need to discuss anything. I will dearly miss this school and have already recommended it to two of my friends. I wholeheartedly recommend giving Mills Montessori a try; it's an experience worth exploring.”

“All Souls school is a great school. The teachers are awesome and they have looked after my children. They are willing to go that extra mile. When I have a problem they deal with it immediately. We are very lucky to have a great Principal and staff at the school.”

“I was a bit concerned with some of the earlier reviews here. BUT thankfully, this is a great daycare and we have both our kids here (2, 4). ALL of the teachers that we've encountered seem so friendly and you can tell they truly love kids, love what they do, and are so caring.The infant teacher that takes care of my son truly loves him SO much, and as for my 4 year old, the teachers are always on top of how she is, what she's doing, what she likes/dislikes, what she needs work on.The facilities COULD use some updates, but honestly, staff & kids are what's most important, kids don't care that much about amenities. I can tell my kids are really thriving here and would highly recommend to anyone!I think the only gripe was that it was a bit hard to get a hold of them for enrollment, but it's only one main office staff and I'm sure she has a lot to deal with dealing with parents, general office & building maintenance, etc. Took some persistence over email and over phone. The contact info on the site is updated so just keep trying!”
