I highly recommend the Butterfly center. Rina is very knowledgeable, caring, patient, and friendly. These classes have helped my son become more social and these have also helped ME be better prepared as a new mom. It can be isolating staying at home taking care of a little one (and quite scary not knowing what to do as they grow). These classes have given me peace of mind and both my son and I get a lot from them. It also offers and opportunity to see other moms and learn from each other's experiences. Highly recommend!

I don't know how I would have gotten through the first year of my daughter's life without the guidance and support of Rina and all the wonderful moms that I have met through this program.

We look forward to class every week - I can really see how my son's social skills improved since attending HH. I also love the parent discussions, it has really validated my parenting experience!

I truly cannot say enough good things about this preschool and parenting program. It has completely…read morechanged our lives. What makes this program so unique is that it's not just about the kids, it's about the parents too. They actively teach parenting tools focused on breaking unhealthy cycles, respectful communication, conflict resolution, and truly seeing children as human beings with thoughts, feelings, and opinions. The play based model is magical. The kids are outside, exploring, creating, problem-solving, and building real social skills. In a world that pushes academics earlier and earlier, this space protects childhood a little longer and that feels priceless! Miss Danielle, in particular, has been an absolute gift to our family. She has supported me through navigating a difficult public school situation with my older daughter and provided resources and guidance I didn't even know were available. Her wisdom, calm presence, and advocacy have truly changed the trajectory of our experience as a family. Beyond the program itself, the community is something special. I've met some of my closest friends here, friendships I know will last a lifetime. If I could keep my kids here until they were 18, I would. It is that magical. Forever grateful.

This facility is a must for anyone with a little human! I go here with my niece and cannot begin to…read moresay enough good things about this location. Starting with the staff, Marshall is our favorite. She is so welcoming and has endless enthusiasm for not only the kids, but the role itself. She is gentle and a ball of kind energy wrapped up in a tiny package. You can tell she loves what she does, as it shows with her care and excitement for the kids. I'm sad to say I don't remember the male teacher's name, but he is beyond kind with the kids. He's able to capture their attention, and they absolutely love him. He's so kind and gentle with all the little, and they love him for it. The owner, Ceevan, is so nice and hands on. You can tell he cares a great deal about the location, staff, and kids. He is not afraid to get into the mix and jump in with the kids when needed. The facility itself has plenty of parking, is clean and well maintained. The kids are entertained and enthralled with the activities, and are spent of energy by the end of the class. Each time we leave, a nap for both adult and kid is needed. All in all, I cannot recommend this location enough. From the staff, to the owner, and the activities, a 10 out of 10 experience for all. You won't leave without a smile plastered to your face, and an exhausted little in your hip.

I am so glad I found NMS Westlake Village! Building your village as a first-time mom is no easy…read moretask, but joining the infant class gave me a community that provided comfort, connection, and much-needed sanity checks week after week. Those early postpartum months can feel so overwhelming, and having a safe space with other moms in the same stages every week made such a difference. I loved it so much that I went on to the Rising Toddler class. My baby loves NMS, too. Watching the babies interact, learn, and grow together each week was genuinely so sweet, and I really think it's been good for him to be around other babies as well. I'd highly recommend NMS Westlake Village! We'll definitely be back for future classes.

Robyn has been a wonderful instructor.

Wow! I knew I would benefit from working with Janet, but I had no idea that I would feel so…read moredrastically impacted by her coaching, especially in such a short time. I tend to be pretty skeptical, and honestly when I first started to feel better (more regulated, more joyful, able to be more engaged in my life), I had trouble believing it- I kept waiting for the rug to be pulled out from under me. But it wasn't a fluke! Even though there have been ups and downs, as there are with any changes and growth, there has been a consistent, significant, positive trajectory. Throughout my adult life, I have been in and out of therapy, mostly for depression and anxiety. And there is usually some improvement, but I often have trouble implementing the tools on a day-to-day basis. Before working with Janet, I was often dysregulated and would get to the point of complete burnout/shut down where I would end up in bed for the whole day (often once a month, more during the winter months). I have some chronic health issues that were getting worse because I didn't feel capable of doing the things needed to care for myself. In the three months I worked with Janet, I was able to get out of freeze/shut down (zero full days unable to get out of bed in the last 2 months!), I've been able to bounce back quicker when I started to get dysregulated, and I began to have the emotional bandwidth to start taking better care of my physical health. Janet's coaching style of coupling longer sessions with check-ins throughout the week, really helped me stay accountable to this process and make consistent progress. I was hesitant to sign up because the cost (even though extremely reasonable for the time Janet invests) was a big stretch for our budget. But when I consider the money spent on talk therapy and physical therapy over the years (and ordering food out because I can't function enough to cook)....this was a steal and worth every penny!

I highly recommend working with Janet. What a deeply moving experience…read more Janet's inquisitive approach, her compassion, patience and gentleness brought me closer to myself, helped me understand my triggers, and bring compassion to challenging internal dynamics. Through deeper self-understanding I am able to connect more meaningfully and authentically with my child. Working with Janet requires bravery to face internal harms and limiting beliefs. Together, we forged new and empowering approaches to being a parent and a human. With Janet, there is no quick-fix or parenting hack to make challenging problems go away, rather, there is transformation that takes place on a very deep level. Be ready! I am grateful for Janet's humor, groundedness, and for her ability to see and feel deeply alongside me as a thought partner.

I was having such a hard time at the beginning of my daughter's life, after the first day of class, I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders and felt like I can relax a little bit because I wasn't the only mom out there worried that I wasn't doing the right thing. This tribe has helped me take mommyhood day by day and every week I look forward to meeting up with my new tribe. Remember, it takes a village to raise a child. Find your own tribe! Thanks Bridie for such an amazing experience.

Our neighbor recommended Ashley to us, and every time we see her we thank her for the connection! We loved how Ashley got to know us and our daughter, and made a tailored, custom sleep plan that addressed the goals we had and where we were at with sleep. We have learned a lot - Ashley gave us the tools we needed to feel like empowered parents!

I recently enrolled at Conejo Valley adult education for a certificate program for office manager in order to get back up to speed in order to support myself after my divorce is final. It is a scary time... but fortunately for me, Chris Wilson has been my teacher for the first two classes in my certificate program. He is so thorough and makes sure every student knows what they are doing. I suddenly feel empowered. Because I am not just going through the motions. I am re-learning what I knew so long ago after many years. The class projects that he gives us proves to me that I actually know what he's teaching. I did not think I would be able to get back what I have lost. It is apparent that Mr. Wilson loves his job and he truly is rooting for his students and is willing to help them however he can. I recently had an early meeting with my attorney during class hours which I could not change. So I ended up being over an hour late for class. He was so accommodating and came to me during class break and caught me up on everything that the rest of the class had gone over that morning. Mr. Wilson has been my instructor for the first two classes for my certificate program. I can only hope that as I move forward, any other instructor that I encounter at the Conejo Valley adult school will be as knowledgeable, enthusiastic and patient as he has been with the entire class.
