We hosted an anniversary party with friends and business partners, and everyone could not stop talking about the service, quality, flavors, and presentation. Our event space is a bit non traditional, but Sidney and her team thoughtfully figured out the placement for the food and drinks in each room and area. Which made a huge difference in terms of the flow of the event! Sidney was so easy to work with and flexible as headcount and menu had to change constantly. We highly recommend Prep Mule and can't wait to work with Sidney and her team again for future events!

Can't wait to try their meal preps next!

However, his curls were making him hot, and my husband and I agreed that I was time. We'd always said by the time he was four, so...! I finally searched Yelp for curly hair cut, and I landed on PREP. I wanted someone who could do biracial curly hair and someone who was good with kids. I wanted a salon experience for my son's first haircut. PREP had great reviews and Maria was mentioned multiple times. I Googled and found the website, and booking was super easy. The payment was also done online. PREP is located in the Town & Country shopping center, and while the center is busy, it's perfect for a haircut. You can run errands before or after your appointment! Anyway, we entered PREP AT 11:27. I saw reviews that being late was a big no, so we hustled to make sure we did not arrive past 11:30. The salon is clean. They have multiple chairs at at least two shampoo bowls. Our son was a bit hesitant and nervous, so he was shy and started to act up just a bit. Maria had a tablet on deck and that piqued his interest. We talked about the look we wanted to achieve and Maria gave some suggestions. I almost had a heart attack when his ponytail was cut, but I survived! Maria is calm, patient, and easy to work with. She cut his hair and then shampooed, conditioned, and styled his hair. When we asked for a few areas to be fixed, she obliged. I'm super happy with this experience, and I've found our go-to spot. Thank you, Maria!

Steps prep is hands-down the BEST tutoring center for high school classes here in Pleasanton, or…read moreanywhere ever! Unlike other tutoring centers that just want to make money off of you, Kerry and Arick Little truly just have their students' best interest at heart. Whether it's finding the right class for your child, or responding to email problems during the weekend, they just want to make sure that your student succeeds. Sometimes, if they don't have the right class for you, they would even tell you where to go. Arick is a wonderful Math teacher who's taught both my children. He makes the material easy and clear, and sets my children up for success in the stem fields. We're so lucky to have him as a Math coach here at PUSD and the Virtual Academy!

Our kid is an "A student" and a very good writer, but is not one of those super genius kids who gets perfect scores on everything. We wanted our kid to have every advantage available because schools are extremely competitive nowadays, especially the UC's. First, we attended the PrepPoint SAT prep course, which is very reasonably priced and does a great job preparing your kid for the SAT. Our kid thought that it really helped. Then, when it came time for college essays, we hired Eva Holtz directly to help fine-tune the essay. At first my kid didn't like the idea and told us that we were wasting our money. However, by the time the process was finished, it was a different story. Our kid was saying that Eva was a tremendous help, and that the essays wouldn't have been anywhere near as well written without Eva's keen eye and unique perspective. Our kid got accepted into UCLA, UC Davis, and a bunch of other UC's, CSU's and out of state universities. We definitely feel that that every penny we paid for Eva's tutoring was very well spent! We emailed her to tell her the great news and thank her. We have a younger kid who will be a junior in high school next year, and we will hire Eva again without hesitation, starting with her excellent SAT preparation class. There are a lot of companies out there who do SAT prep and college prep. You will be in very good hands with Eva and any of the tutors that she employs. I think it made the difference that helped our kid get into that dream school. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!!!

Do not use Learning Care Academy…read more Shakha Gupta the part owner of Learning Care Academy, and the director running the program on site, will tell you anything you want to hear to get you to sign their Contract. Shakha Gupta, will tell you they will customize the program for your child, that they focus on homework and their packets are just 1-2 optional pages of work. She will tell you have these extra activities as well. Shakha lied about everything she told us. My son came home crying every day for the first weeks as the teachers were forcing 7 - 10 page packets on him daily or no extra activities. All this after a full day of school. No fun activities if he didn't, even though Shakha said this would not happen. We spoke to Shaka again as it was clear in the first 2 weeks that the program was not what she had said. Even the teachers seemed uniformed of anything Shaka had said. She showed me the packet, only after I pushed, and it was 7 pages for that one day. She tried to justify it as one two sided page was one page, and that they didn't really need to read a book if they did her reading, so in her mind it was 1-2 pages. She tried to tell me that they "were hearing the schools now have homework, so they will be adjusting" when I expressed concern about HW. What??? The schools always had homework. As I said, she will say anything you want to hear to get you to sign up, then when you unenroll, she takes 4 weeks plus the 2 weeks she took as a deposit, all as free money and a reward for being dishonest. Very Shady practice. The Straw that broke the camels back for us was when we picked up our son on September 12th, crying again because he and another kid were being punished for not finishing their packets. They were being excluded from dance, despite her words to me that "Non of the teachers would do that". Then planned to keep him out of other activities, all for pushing his way through a bathroom line because he had to pee. She is not kind to the kids and frankly has too many in that one small facility. We have removed our son since September 16th. She knows this as we have had countless communications. She has not stopped sending invoices and even had her bus people calling to see where Chase was 2 weeks after we unenrolled him. Made me wonder if they really know which kids they are supposed to pick up. I would not trust them to keep track of your young child for sure. Shakha Gupta misrepresented her program and is verbally abusive to the kids and parents. Do not send your child here.
