Hidden gem of North Torrance. Affordable, God-centered, clean, and patient staff. We've gone from many fancy preschools in the beach cities to here and have been the happiest here. Feels like we're finally getting our tuition's worth. The staff is loving, patient, and low-key, at least under the direction of Shireen the director. Both of my kids have flourished here. Small class size for the youngest class , additional add-ins such as soccer, ballet, ninja class, etc., lots of picture days, holiday celebrations, parent involvement, weekly chapel, the works. All for half the price tag of the aforementioned fancy schools (both daycare centers and home daycares). AFAIK, there is a weekly curriculum that's sent to parents through Brightwheel app that is followed. My kids are on pace to be kinder ready. And menus for the daily lunches that's included. The teachers all have been there for many many years so it feels like a family/community. They're also the after school care option for Yukon Elementary next door.

I feel like I struck gold with this preschool! My daughter has been going for a few months and loves it! The director and all the teachers are so nice. They have tons of fun activities planned for the kids and I really feel like they care for them as if they were their own.

It has been a pleasure taking our kids to Noah's Ark for the summer. Kathleen is amazing, and she is the reason we felt so comfortable bringing our kids there. She cares so much about what she does, and the children in her care. We enrolled 4 of our kids ages 2-8 and they absolutely loved it. By the end, my 6 and 8 year old were so proud they could name every US president.

My 5yo son has attended Noah's Ark since he was 2 1/2 and I cannot say enough good things about this school. They helped potty train my son and helped him become more independent and social, which were things he was struggling with being an only child. I always felt that my son was well taken care of and they always kept in good communication with me about his progress and needs. All the teachers were wonderful in their own ways, but I have to give a special shout out to Ms. Collette, who is my son's current teacher. She is very sweet and easy going, but one thing she does that I think really shows how much she cares is that she knits magnets for the kids to take home that memorialize holidays, seasons, or subjects that they are learning about in school. My son loves bringing these special keepsakes home and has them proudly displayed on the fridge door. This type of little thing is what I think really differentiate Noah's Ark from other preschools in the area- you won't get teachers just going through the motions here. My son will be starting kindergarten in a few weeks and we are sad to have to leave Noah's Ark, but we look forward to returning for their wonderful summer program next year!

My husband and I, and most importantly my two year old love this place. He has learned so much in just a few months of being there. It's great knowing you can drop off your little one all day and not have to worry about him not being properly taken care of. Miss. Kathleen, the director is wonderful and on top of everything from healthy meals, to campus safety and following health guidelines especially with COVID-19. Miss Kathleen is transparent, very easy to communicate with and clearly loves the children. We highly recommend Noah's Ark!!

We are so happy to have recently found out about this preschool! We love the grounds. There is so much space for the kids. Also, Kathleen the director there is awesome. She has such a great attitude and really strives to provide the best opportunity for the kiddos to learn and succeed. The new app that they have is brilliant. I love being able to have that level of communication with the staff there. Truly a game changer.
