It takes a lot for me to feel comfortable leaving my little one in the care of someone else, but at AEC, they truly care for each child like their own. The teachers and the aides are on top of it, and they greet us and say goodbye with a smile and open arms. The activities are culturally inclusive and are tailored to support the children's development. They offer a full Spanish immersion program, which is perfect to build our little one's language skills. They created a garden this year, and renovated their playground, which is great for the littles. During the summer, they do water play, which is perfect because Lakewood summers get HOT. We love seeing how much the kids love being here! Another thing I really enjoy is how Arc en Ciel fosters parent engagement and ways to stay connected-there's a monthly newsletter, a group chat, events, and an amazing PTA.

I can't recommend Arc en Ciel Preschool enough! They offer Spanish, English, and French immersion…read moreclassrooms, and my son spent two wonderful years in the Spanish program before transitioning seamlessly into a Spanish Dual Immersion TK program. What truly sets Arc en Ciel apart is the caring, dedicated staff. The teachers create a warm, nurturing, and inclusive environment where every child feels safe, valued, and encouraged to be themselves. They foster a genuine love of learning through play, exploration, and curiosity, helping children build confidence while developing language skills naturally. As a parent, I also appreciated the remodeled campus and the added peace of mind that comes with the secure, passcode-protected entry and frequent communication on Brightwheel. If you're looking for a preschool that provides a strong foundation for bilingual education while surrounding your child with kindness, encouragement, and exceptional care, I wholeheartedly recommend Arc en Ciel Preschool. Check them out on Facebook or Instagram and schedule a tour--you won't be disappointed!

I love that they focus on both learning and allowing the kids to have fun, socialize, and be creative.

I would definitely recommend them to other families looking for a caring and dependable children's center in the Lakewood area!

Great daycare! My son Landyn went here, and my family has actually been coming here for years. I…read moreeven attended when I was younger, so this place has been part of our family for a long time. It's a large, well-established daycare, with separate classrooms for the different age groups. The staff really care about the kids and do a great job making them feel comfortable while also helping them learn and grow. I had a great experience here growing up, and it meant a lot to me to be able to send my own son here years later. Definitely a place I would recommend to other families looking for a daycare they can trust.

The teachers are all very kind and loving and work with you to address your child's individual needs. Mrs. Luyben and the school leadership anre also excellent at communicating about special days, activities, school needs, and new experiences for the kids. The school offers fun after school activity days at least 2x each month, and they celebrate most holidays in creative ways. I have also been really impressed with the quality of the art projects, playtime, and learning of basic letters, numbers, and shapes. I also want to note that, even though it is a Christian preschool and associated with the LVCC church, and we are non-Christians (but people of faith), I never felt pressure nor excessive Christian messaging. There was always a nice respectful balance of lovely Bible quotes and prayers, while respecting that our family was not Christian. The faith-based preschool is really expressed in their love and honoring of the sacredness of childhood. Which I love! I am grateful that LVCC Preschool was my kids' first experience with school! Definitely worth checking out for anyone looking for a kind, warm, creative, play-based preschool experience for their little!

Sending little ones to school for the first time can be scary for everyone but LVCC Preschool always met my kids (and us parents) where we were at. They quelled any fears, adjusted to any regressions, but most of all - made everything so fun! I will be sad when my littlest has moved on to big kid school but will always think of their preschool years so fondly because of the family at LVCC.

It brings incredible peace of mind knowing your child is with someone who genuinely cares about their individual needs and development.

She gives the children so much love and attention that Baby Bear Daycare never felt like just a daycare it felt like a second home.

I highly recommend Miss Lucinda and Baby Bear Daycare to any parent looking for a loving and trustworthy place for their child. My daughter is now in 2nd grade, and she still misses Miss Lucinda so much! She loves going back to visit her whenever she can. That says so much about the special bond they have.

I cannot say enough about Discover Preschool. We have been a part of this community for 3 years…read more Both my daughter and son have attended this school and honestly I wish this was an elementary school so they could keep going. Roxy Mendoza the Director is great. She keeps parents informed and update on activities and events. Her office is always open if parents or children have questions or concerns. I always felt supported by her staff. The teachers are also great. I feel like both of my kids learned so much. I love all the arts and crafts the kids brought home and the kids enjoyed going on mini field trips. The class sizes are small so the kids really get to bond with the other children. We were also able to celebrated birthdays and holidays it was great. The campus feels safe and secure as it is a closed campus. It's also a nut-free campus for those children with nut allergies. I cannot say enough good things about my experience. I would highly recommend this school to families looking to enroll their child in preschool.

CHPPNS could not have been a better fit and better program for our family. School and socializing…read morehas big such a big topic in our family before kids even came into the picture. We put a lot of thought into what environment we want our kids to be in and felt the importance of being a part of it as well. Our main concern was that we felt like the environment was nurturing and that it was play based. It was a hard first step to decide to put our son into a a school when he was 2.5, but from the moment we started CHPPNS it was the best decision ever. I found since the school takes place at such a familiar place for kids, at a park, the transition was so easy for him. The other part that was amazing is that we had just moved into the neighborhood and this was the most organic way to gain instant community with people that live close by. Through volunteering at the school we not only got the joy of watching our child in action at school learn and grow, but we had the privilege to get to know the other kids that our son was spending so much time with. We have gained friendships with other parents at this school that I feel will last a lifetime. This year our son will be continuing his second year at CHPPNS! We are so excited to have a second year with Teacher Karen. Miss Karen is a firm believer in play based education and she helps facilitate an environment where children learn to work through conflicts with each other. We have seen our son and our community grow so much this past year. This year I joined the board because I want to be a part of keeping this program the amazing program that it is. WE LOVE CHPPNS!!

He can't wait to be reunited with his friends and Ms. Sol!

I have recommended Full Steam Ahead to others, and my wife's friend recently enrolled her son there. The pricing is fair and I there are multiple sets of siblings that attend. Lastly, Full Steam provides numerous resources for the child and family. Just check with Amber, the owner.
