I…read morehave a 22 year old and two littles one, ages 9 and 5, and wow do I wish I knew of this office when my 22 year old was little. My 22 year old had a lot of work done recently on his teeth because it was always so hard to get him in the dentist office growing up, no matter what I bribed him with. Unfortunately, we had a lot of catching up to do because of this. Now, my younger children literally get out the car and run in the office as if we are going to meet their friends somewhere fun for a play date. This is AMAZING, as I know how dreadful a dentist visit can be from experience. The office personnel are extremely friendly, the office is super clean, and Dr. Zaeni is extremely professional, honest and knowledgeable. I found them a few years ago when my middle child had a tooth issue that had been infected and I have never looked back. They treated him with such calmness and respect no matter how bad/good the situation was. I take them here regularly now for their annual cleanings. They are extremely thorough without over diagnosing. Their bedside manner is superb, not making us parents feel some type of way when discussing a plan to get our children's teeth on track. They meet you where you are and support you to keep our littles teeth cleaning and upkeep appropriate and approachable. I truly found a gem Dentist right in my back yard. How lucky is my family! Thank you Dr. Zaeni for being so consistent and a safe spot to allow Zaine and Gianni to enjoy every Dentist appointment. What a win all around!

I highly recommend this dental office to any parent looking for a place where their child will be treated with patience, kindness, and care.

Since then, we've been back every 6 months. Recently, we've been seen by Dr. Do's associate. My baby had a bad fall and busted up one of her front tooth, so I really wanted to hear Dr. Do's opinion cause that was her first dentist, ever. But unfortunately we saw his colleague. The dentist was great too, we just hoped that we would see Dr. Do! Needless to say, he's a great pediatric dentist. Hopefully we can see him next time!

During the era of Covid we were referred to Dr. Saini by our regular dental office because they stopped doing pediatrics. I'm so thankful they did because we have never looked back. The care is exceptional. The work is the best. There is no other way to describe it. My kids are easy to deal with but I've been there when they had some "other" kinds of kids in there and they have their ways of dealing with them on point. Our last dentist did a really bad job on some of my daughters dental and I paid out of pocket to have Dr. Saini fix it rather than going back to the other dentist. I will not take my kids anywhere else. The office staff is exceptional. I have to deal with a difficult co parent situation and its so easy for me to just call up and explain what's going on and they accommodate me every time with out any hassle. Any billing questions, they are right there with the answer. They are just so helpful. Actually, I wish I could be a patient too. You will not find a better dentist for your kids.

I chose this children's dentist based on positive reviews and decided to go out-of-pocket,…read moreexpecting a smooth experience. Unfortunately, after our second visit, things went downhill quickly. Our appointment was for our 1-year-old daughter -- a very simple visit with no X-rays or special procedures. Because I was paying out of pocket, I was supposed to be charged the full amount upfront, with insurance billing afterward for reimbursement. That did not happen. Weeks later, I received a surprise bill for over an additional hundred dollars. This was never discussed at the time of the visit and came completely out of the blue. While surprise billing is generally not allowed in California (with dentists often excluded), this felt like billing in bad faith. When I called the office to clarify, I was told I still needed to pay the balance and that because I had used a "coupon" on my first visit, I was "still getting a good deal." There was no apology, no acknowledgment of their billing mistake, and no accountability for failing to charge the correct amount initially -- just a demand for more money. I specifically chose this office instead of an in-network provider because I assumed they knew how to properly handle out-of-pocket visits. They clearly did not. Additionally, I was not given a choice regarding fluoride treatment for my daughter. She was only 1 year old, had no evidence of tooth decay, and there was no discussion about whether fluoride was necessary or optional. I believe parents should be informed and given the choice before exposing such a young child to fluoride, especially when the need is not clearly established. That conversation never happened. Overall, this experience was disappointing and frustrating. If you're considering this office -- especially if you're paying out of pocket -- be aware that you may receive unexpected bills weeks later and that important treatment decisions may be made without proper discussion or consent.

My daughter had serious oral trauma from being intubated as a toddler, and with years of loving, patient, compassionate care they have turned that trauma around and we now have a girl who will literally trust them to do ANYTHING dental that she needs done! The most epic example is on Mother's Day this year, she knocked out a permanent tooth while playing. Dr Christina left her own children for hours on a Sunday/Mother's Day to come in and replant the tooth, with skill and respect for my daughter throughout the procedure. The tooth is now thriving again thanks to multiple check ups and little interventions she has done along the way! That experience could have scarred us all for life but instead my daughter happily skips into the office. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!

Such a Great Experience!…read more We took both of our boys to Little Cloud for their dental visit, and they had such a great experience! The office is absolutely adorable--the decorations are so cute and really make the whole place feel fun and welcoming for kids. The staff and doctor were wonderful with the boys and so gentle and patient. My younger son is only 3, so I wasn't sure how he would do at the dentist, but he actually had a great time! He was completely comfortable and left happy, which says a lot. It's so nice to find a pediatric dentist where the kids actually enjoy going. We'll definitely be coming back!

We were looking for a pediatric dentist for our children as we had been taking them to our dentist,…read morewho we love. However, we figured a pediatric dentist would be better equipped and outfitted for wiggly kiddos. I asked in a local Facebook Mom group for pediatric dentist office recommendations based on the needs of our children, and I saw overwhelmingly positive reviews for a few. From there, I took to Yelp and I saw the 5-star reviews for Little Cloud. I called them up, and the receptionist was so delightful and happy to answer any questions. They take our insurance and had openings, so we made our appointments. Now that we've had two cleanings there, it was time to write another all star review for them! I can't praise Dr. Rachel and her office enough! First off, they are easy to make appointments with and have their own private parking lot right in front. This makes everything so easy. Her staff are sweet and sincere, and joyful! When you're greeted, the energy is positive like not only are they happy to be there, but they're happy you're there too! That type of energy and atmosphere is exactly what you want at a pediatric dentist's office! The office is SO cute and well thought out! There's a fun light-up wall with knobs for the kiddos to play with, plus some more toys and books. The furniture is adorable with little cloud stools and a very cool light up cloud ceiling! I mean, this office feels straight out of Instagram/Pinterest! It's way too cute! However, the praise doesn't just stop at the office decor. Looks aren't everything, so more importantly, Dr. Rachel is such a pleasure! She's fantastic with children. She has great techniques to work on babies and nervous children. Fidgety kids? She has TVs mounted on the ceiling as well to hold their interest while she works. She has a fun bar where kids can pick their flavor for their cleaning. Every detail here has been thought out. Plus, she is so kind and informative! She tells you what she's doing and gives helpful intel and advice. Her office is very modern, and bright, with the latest gadgets to help her do her work smoothly and quickly. She also offers appointments where her specially trained therapy dogs can be present! The dogs are in the office twice a week. Our next appointment is when they're there and we're excited! Plus, after the appointment, kiddos can head to the prize wall and get a gapcha! So fun! Plus, on our first visit, they took a cute Polaroid of us to commemorate our visit, and the kids got some cute little items! I love the cloud toothbrush cover! Plus, my baby loved her cloud squishy toy! The entire practice goes out of their way to not only make you feel welcome, but to make the visit fun and enjoyable! This second visit, any nervousness was gone! It was the best dental visit my 6-year-old has ever had, and our 1.5's visit was also a breeze! I couldn't believe how well it went, and its a testament to Dr. Rachel and her team! This is the type of vibe I want when I take them to the dentist. I mean, this is the type of vibes I want when I go too. Does she take adults? hahah :) We're so happy there and highly recommend Dr. Rachel!
