Marlene and her helpers truly love the children and the children love her and her helpers right back. The time spent at Marlene's is enjoyable and enriching for my kids. They have fun, but also learn so much. My kids were more than prepared for public school after learning and playing at Marlene's school. I highly recommend!

My two boys attended Marlene's Childcare from infants to preschool. I am so lucky to have found…read moreMarlene, as she provided an intimate, small, and safe daycare setting that felt like family. My boys learned to read in Marlene's care, and were well prepared for Kindergarten. Everyday, they had access to a large backyard setting filled with toys and play structures and endless educational and art projects. Marlene provided homemade, nutritious meals as well. My boys are now preteens, and still remember "Nanny" as their favorite teacher! I cherish those memories and I'm grateful to have found such a wonderful daycare!

As a first time mom it was such a difficult decision and come to terms with putting my son in a…read moredaycare. There were so many things I was afraid of when I started to look for a daycare, like cleanliness, my son not being taken care of well enough, daycare staff being over worked and overwhelmed. You hear a lot of horror stories that scare any parents but man does CJCC really exceed all my expectations. They send presious pictures and updates when asked and I truly appreciate the pics and updates . Ms. Pinar has been so amazing to my sweet boy! She truly loves and cares so much for him & works so well with trying to get him fed. (He was exclusively breastfed most his life) if you know, you know! She has been compassionate, kind, understanding and willing to assist to meet his preferences and needs. When I first toured I was SO impressed with their attention to cleanliness & infection control. From the moment I stepped in the door Ms. Pinar & Mr. Avni welcomed me with such warm energy, happy and inviting. They made me put on booties over my shoes and wash my hands. Which was a first! My son was 5 months when he started but I was so happy and impressed to see all the learning tools and hear about how they help the children with real life skills. I was so impressed I came back a second time with my son's father. We are so excited and happy to be apart of the cookie jar child care family!!

Update: My son is now 2 years old and has been in the care of the Rocklin home with Mr. Avni and…read moreMrs. Maria since he was about 4ish months old. In this time my son has grown immensely, not only physically, but mentally, and emotionally as well. Mrs. Maria cooks home made food that my son is obsessed with. Mr. Avni teaches him manners, to play soccer and even piano. My son speaks with incredible pronunciation and has a very wide vocabulary for a 2 year old and I have no doubt it's from the education this daycare provides while my husband and I work. I absolutely love that they have no screen time and have a very structured day to help children learn to thrive in routine. I highly recommend cookie jar child care in Rocklin.

We've had a wonderful experience with Knowledge Beginnings since our daughter started there at just…read more5 months old. The teachers are truly amazing--we can tell they genuinely care for our little one and it gives us such peace of mind knowing she's in loving, capable hands. The communication is excellent, both in person and through the app. We especially love receiving pictures and updates throughout the day--it's such a joy to see her smiling, learning, and having fun! We feel completely confident that our daughter is not only well cared for but also loved and supported while she's at school. We're so grateful to the entire team at Knowledge Beginnings

My experience at this childcare facility left me feeling uncomfortable and ultimately led me to…read morewithdraw my children due to concerns about organization, communication, and safety. From the beginning, I felt rushed into bringing my children without being properly prepared. I was not clearly informed about what items I needed to provide for my children, the billing policy, or the exact amount I would owe. I asked multiple times for written confirmation of my monthly payment amount, but I never received anything by email. I was only given verbal estimates, which created confusion and uncertainty. One of my biggest concerns happened when my daughter was bitten by another child in her classroom. I understand that incidents can happen in childcare settings, and I do not blame the facility simply because a child bit another child. However, what made me extremely uncomfortable was the handling of the situation. The teacher stated in front of the director that she had already sent me an incident report, which was not true. I also never received a phone call regarding the injury. When I saw my daughter's injury, it was more severe than I had expected. The lack of communication and the fact that I felt I was given inaccurate information damaged my trust. After speaking with the director, we agreed to move my daughter to another classroom. Unfortunately, when my daughter returned after being absent for several days, nobody appeared to have prepared for her transition. Her belongings had not been moved, and no one was available to guide me to her new classroom. After waiting for quite some time, another staff member eventually assisted me, though she did not seem pleased to do so. Once I entered the classroom, it was clear the teacher seemed surprised and unprepared for my daughter's arrival. As a parent, that was concerning because transitioning a child into a new environment should feel organized and welcoming. I was also later emailed that I would be charged a late fee despite still not having clear information regarding the exact amount I owed or the due dates. In the end, my daughter was paid for the month but only attended a handful of times because I no longer felt comfortable with the overall environment. The disorganization, communication issues, and concerns regarding cleanliness made me feel that this was not the right place for my children.
