    Oh my word, the sweetest preschool in Contra Costa County, hands down!!! My daughter absolutely…read moreLOVES this school, and so do I! In our few short months here, my daughter has BLOSSOMED. She was welcomed and loved by her teachers and classmates from the very first minute she was in the classroom. She has been challenged academically, which has been so much fun for her! Along with learning to write full words as well as recognizing and sound out words, my daughter really enjoys learning Spanish as well as kid friendly science experiments she has been doing with her classmates. The classrooms (and teachers) are so engaging and thoughtful, I have never seen so many kids feel so comfortable with their teachers! Every time I've been in the classroom, it is clear that every teacher here works very hard to ensure that your child's time at Celebrations is successful and FUN. Celebration Center is a very friendly, safe, and inviting place to visit. The classrooms are spick n' span clean, with projects made from the children lovingly hung up all around the classroom. The playground alone is enough to make you want to come back, it's so cute! The school goes above and beyond with holiday parties, winter and spring programs the children perform for their families, special visitors in the classroom, family breakfast morning, even parent appreciation week. Once a week the children get to participate in chapel, where they get to sing and dance and learn about Jesus. It will seriously leave you misty eyed from how sweet it is! Another thing that makes this school stand out is that the staff truly wants to encourage all parents to be the very best parent they can to their children. They have a wonderful library full of solid and loving Christian based parenting books. This is a true Christ centered school, with a professional and accountable staff. I will truly miss this school when my daughter graduates, this experience has meant the world to my daughter and our family. Thank you so much, Celebration Center, I am so grateful!!!

    As parents, we enrolled our child at Celebration Center because of its Christian foundation and the…read morepromise of a school that partners with families in raising and educating children. The kindergarten year was great. 1st grade, however, well, lets just say, recent events have shown us that this school does not practice what it preaches. Without detailed communication or parental consent, Celebration brought in a guest speaker from Committing to 16 -- someone with no formal training in early childhood education -- to speak to a class of 6-year-olds. Even worse, the speaker contradicted her own organization's message ["Committing to 16 is designed to help prevent mental health issues that come with social media use in kids and teens by avoiding social media usage until 16..." ] by encouraging kids to stay on social media... at six years old! How is that in line with Christian values or healthy child development? C'mon Nurse Kelli - make it sound right. And that's just grazing the top layer of their presentation slides... there's more than social media. How about, vaping, sexual touching? Yeah, that. Even public schools have consents toward subjects spoken on that subject. We're raising our child in a very intentional and supervised way. No sleepovers. No random adults without us present. No unsupervised screen time -- ever. Every minute of his exposure to media is something we explain and walk him through. So, to find out that Celebration assumed all children were on the same path and delivered such content without consent? Completely unacceptable. When my wife addressed the issue in person, she was met with dismissive body language and zero accountability. From what I gathered, they didn't seem to think they did anything wrong -- or perhaps they just labeled us as "overprotective parents." Let me be clear: We may be the first to speak up, but we are not alone. Other parents we've talked to were equally outraged. To top it off, our child has mentioned they often watch YouTube in class. If that's what we're paying thousands a year for, we could have stayed home and done that ourselves -- for free. Celebration Center claims to partner with parents, but in our experience, they make major decisions without transparency and then stand by them without reflection. We no longer trust the school's judgment, and we certainly don't feel they prioritize the well-being or innocence of the children in their care. If you're a parent looking for a school that truly respects and collaborates with families, think twice before enrolling here. They might say the right things, but their actions tell a different story.

    Three days prior to leaving for a week long vacation, my Mom started having some health issues and…read moreended up in ER. It quickly became obvious that I was going to need full-time in-home care for her during my absence. That evening, I made a phone call to Visiting Angels of Livermore. They offered to provide a full no-commitment assessment, and I accepted. The next day, Mr. Keith Beck, Executive Director, came to my home and evaluated Mom's situation and needs. Mr. Beck was on-time, professional, organized and efficient. Following the assessment, we were introduced to a recommended caregiver who, assuming my approval, would be responsible for Mom. She was professional, very conversational with Mom and an experienced caregiver. By the end of the appointments, I was confident that Mom would have good, comforting care while I was gone. I was extremely impressed that Visiting Angels responded so quickly, and was also able to provide and dedicate quality staff in a timely manner. I continued the caregiving services on a part-time basis after I returned home as Mom was still not quite stable. Another caregiver was introduced and assigned. After a couple of weeks of continued part-time care, Mom became much better and I was comfortable with stopping the services. I highly recommend Visiting Angels of Livermore. All of my experiences (and my Mom's) were positive. It is a very well managed business with a reliable, kind, and supportive team: owner, office staff, and caregivers. Thanks to Visiting Angels I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use them again when and if the need arises. If you are considering in-home care for a loved one, Visiting Angels of Livermore is it. An excellent Yelp score....5 Stars all the way!

I know it's costly for home care,but we both agreed that these friendly folks would help us out.Price was not a problem.We made an appointment for the meet and greet home evaluation and get to know our new team members and our assistants.No one showed up at the appointmeant that they promised us in the beginning.I guess that $200,000 set aside for his companionship and round the clock care went down the drain. Him and I are going to use another home health care company since Visiting Angels has decided not to follow throug.

    After reading some of the reviews i was steeled for a much less positive experience than i actually…read morehad. Yes there are several steps but these birds have been through some kind of emotional or physical trauma or are going to be if they are being surrendered, most are highly intelligent and many of them live for decades so anything less than a thorough process to me would be more suspect then if it was quick and easy. Mickaboo is protective of the birds and wants to thoroughly vet the potential home the birds are going into but not once did I feel any of the questions or actions or expectations were out of line or inappropriate to the end goal of adopting a new family member. Every volunteer I met has been nothing but a wealth of knowledge and supportive and very bottom line and straightforward which I appreciate. If a person or home environment is not a good fit for the bird there is no reason to get butt hurt about it because it is not personal it's just the best interest of everybody especially the birds. I have recently finished the process and will be adopting two beautiful bonded birds with the knowledge and comfort that my situation and environment would be amenable to them now and for years to come. If it wasn't I would understand that and accept it as well. If you have love in your heart for companion birds and feel that you can provide a home now and in the future that would help them live out their lives in a happy healthy manner then please by all means reach out to Mickaboo.
