I've spent a large amount of my career being trained & paid to assess Preschool Environments with…read morethe ECERS, DRDP & NAEYC Accreditation standards. So naturally, when it came to finding a preschool for my daughter when we moved to HMB, I was very particular in what I was looking for. I visited a few preschools in the area that made me shudder. I visited some that were pretty decent. But CCP-HMB Preschool was by far above the rest in meeting my standards. There are things that I still wish were different- i.e. the lack of grass/garden/nature outdoors but I think this school does what they can to make up for the mostly asphalt playground. Highlights that made me enroll my daughter: Small classroom ratios*interactive teachers*efforts made to do regular field trips to the library, downtown, feed & fuel, etc* Music class with John* Ample supervision with bathrooms & classrooms close to each other* lots of art & math supplies * professionalism of the greater CCP organization* Efforts made to have bilingual staff* an understanding of and efforts made to implement the ECERS/DRDP & NAEYC Accreditation standards.

My daughter started going to Laura's daycare when she was just six months old, and we stayed until…read moreshe was almost two. From the very beginning, I felt like we had found something truly special. She was always so excited to go every day. She knew the names of her little friends and would talk about them at home. They celebrated birthdays together, had the cutest little activities planned, and it was clear how much thought and love went into everything Laura did. It was honestly the most heartwarming environment. Laura and her helpers, especially Eva, took such beautiful care of Charlie. She absolutely adored all of them, but she formed a particularly sweet bond with Eva. What I loved most was how Laura cared for the kids like a loving grandmother--she would cook for them, play with them, and create a warm, homey environment that felt safe and nurturing. Her home is always clean and organized, with thoughtful activities set up for both babies and toddlers. She also has a lovely front yard with grass and toys where the kids can run around and enjoy some fresh air. As a mom, it meant everything to me that Laura always kept me updated. She would send me photos and little notes about Charlie throughout the day--eating, playing, napping--and toward the end of the day, she'd usually text me again. Sometimes we'd even chat back and forth about Charlie like I was texting a friend. That level of communication and care gave me so much peace and trust. I'm deeply grateful for the love and attention Laura gave Charlie during such an important stage in her life. If you're looking for a daycare where your child will be genuinely cared for, Laura is an amazing choice. You won't regret it. She's kind, attentive, and has created a beautiful space for little ones to thrive.

She went from crying non stop to eventually blooming into one of the loudest kids in the class. Ms Rachel - Your nurturing, kind, and patient approach has made you more than just a teacher; you're like a second mother to her! Your impressive educational background in early childhood education has undoubtedly contributed to our daughter's advanced skills in speaking and counting, well beyond her years. We feel as if our daughter is way ahead of the curve before kindergarten just at 3.5 years old! She was taught mandarin, how to count to 100, all shapes, letters, alphabet, simple addition and math, and so much more including music and nursery rhymes/songs as Ms Rachel plays piano and sings. But what sets you apart is your heart. You've created a warm, loving, and safe environment that has not only accelerated her learning but also helped her grow into a confident and caring individual. Thank you for being such a positive influence in our daughter's life. We feel fortunate to have you as her teacher. We will actually enroll our future children into her schools, we do not trust any other daycares!

She is kind, patient, extremely caring, and oh so sweet! She welcomed our daughter as if she was her own! It only took our daughter one week to get adjusted to drop offs in the morning and now says 'byeeee mommy' and walks right into the house without crying! The growth and learning we have seen from our daughter does not go unnoticed! She has learned so much - she knows her letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and songs (she's now 2.5 years, started at 21 months). We cannot thank Mrs. Rachel and her team for all they have done for our daughter and the other students! We would highly recommend them to any parents looking for a fun, caring, and reliable day care!

SUPER MUNCHKINS IS THE BEST! My husband and I had a hard time deciding where to send our son after…read moremy mother was leaving the area and would no longer be able to assist with daytime care duties. We looked at multiple facilities, but felt right at home when we toured Super Munckins Academy. The teachers Michael, Romaria, and Liliane are all very kind and caring. I have seen them treat all the children as if they are family. My son has always been excited at drop off, relieving a lot of anxiety when we first started daycare and every day after. I always know that he is in good hands and am never stressed or worried during the day. Every time we pick him up he is smiling ear to ear. They provide frequent status updates and photos throughout the day which is much appreciated. They also utilize baby sign language as well which really helped foster our son's communication skills. In addition to this they taught my son to say please/thank you before 18 months which, I will tell you, is the cutest thing ever. They do daily teaching activities and go to the park as well. They get a lot of outdoor play as well which my son loves. They are able to accommodate special requests as well (ie early nap time if needed based on appointments). Both my husband and I work 8-5 most days so we were worried about finding a place that could accommodate our work hours. Michael worked with our schedule and was able to plan early drop off/pick up for us which was much appreciated! They even are able to provide weekend care with advanced notice if one of the teachers are available.

My daughter has been at Super Munchkins Academy for 1 1/2 years and I am completely pleased with…read morethe level of care she receives there. My husband and I really appreciate the atmosphere this home-based daycare provides as it is important that young children enjoy their early years from infant-preschool. It is more than a family based daycare (note 14 kids is the maximum enrollment) as the program mimics preschool curriculum and teaches kids ABCs, shapes, coloring, name writing and whole lot more. Special kudos for introducing different languages- they speak Spanish and Portuguese and this place is well diverse. The teachers are all very caring and attentive to her needs and have been instrumental in her preparation for kindergarten. Each day (weather permitting) the kids have outdoor play and they visit different neighborhood parks, visit the library, and seasonal parks. One of the many perks is that they utilize the Bright Wheel App where they post many pictures and short videos throughout the day, so parents can see how their children are up too:) The location is ideal too as the home is next to SMPD, library, various shops and minute away from Foster City, 101/92 freeways. I too, agree that Super Munchkins Academy is a true gem and we are so grateful to have our daughter go there. She always talks highly of her teachers and her friends she has made along the way. If you are in the Peninsula and looking for a daycare/preschool for your child, do not hesitate to contact SMA and get on their waitlist. THANK YOU so much Super Munchkins Academy for you all that you do. PS- the photos here are a bit outdated as they have renovated their home. Check out the backyard- it is phenomenal!

When school is closed for holiday weeks, CCP is open all day, and they plan extra fun activities, like local field trips and bike day.
