They constantly advance your kid into the next tier and at first it's exciting and you feel like your child has accomplished and adapted so quickly... then comes the required additional training which comes with of course stricter instruction and that amounts to much higher monthly costs... and management requires you to advance your child even against your own kids will. The result? A lot of injuries and kids quitting, this business only has beginner classes and kind instructors at first and of course located closest to where the parents can observe. They need to understand that these are just kids and not everyone is there to become a professional gymnast, let them enjoy themselves while learning.

Updated review since this business finally responded months later--…read more I've got the receipts. I've got the letters and the contract sent out by Mastery of Sports stating these exact terms. This business writes a CONTRACT, explicitly stating that all participants and their parents must agree that they will not post on social media about the business, the coaches, any complaints must be silenced or they will be held liable by their attorneys. Likely because of people working there like Liz Gilbert. This CONTRACT sent out by Mastery of Sports, unilaterally required ALL parents to volunteer multiple hours (I was told everyone should be able to sweep their parking lot for their volunteer hours!) or be charged $600 additional costs in addition to the class fees. When a business terminates the participation of a child in a sports event because their parent has cancer, and can't volunteer to sweep your parking lot because of a reduced immune system due to active chemotherapy - that's not a business that I want to support or patronize.

If you're looking for a preschool where children spend their days outdoors, learning through…read morecuriosity, creativity, and genuine engagement rather than simply being supervised, Seasons is something truly special. Simone has created something remarkable. With over 20 years in early childhood education, a Master's in Early Childhood Education, and a background in psychology, she brings an incredible depth of knowledge to the school. But what impressed us just as much is how much she genuinely cares. She is constantly going above and beyond to create a magical experience not only for the children, but for the families as well. From community-building events and moms' and dads' nights out to thoughtfully curated classroom experiences, you can feel how intentional everything is. The curriculum is one of the school's greatest strengths. Rather than following a static program, each unit is child-led and immersive. During our time there, our daughter explored topics like architecture, airplanes, insects, and famous artists. She came home excited to tell us about Frida Kahlo, Yayoi Kusama, and Van Gogh, and her artistic abilities and confidence have flourished in ways we never expected at her age. Every theme feels carefully designed with hands-on experiences that make children genuinely excited to learn. Oftentimes parents are invited to shows ending the larger projects. The teaching staff deserves equal recognition. Simone has surrounded herself with educators who have dedicated themselves to early childhood education. They aren't simply hourly childcare workers--they are professionals who understand child development and clearly love what they do. We've been so grateful for the consistency, warmth, and enthusiasm of Astrid, Stephanie, and Jocelyn over the years. Seeing the same familiar, smiling faces each day gave our daughter wonderful continuity and helped create such a secure environment. One of the things we appreciated most was that the children are outside almost every day, regardless of the weather. It teaches resilience, fosters a love of nature, keeps them active, and encourages imaginative play in a way that's difficult to replicate inside four walls. We've never referred to Seasons as a daycare because that's simply not what it is. It is a preschool in the truest sense of the word; a place that nurtures curiosity, confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning. We feel incredibly fortunate that our family found Seasons. Our daughter has thrived there, and there isn't a stronger endorsement we could give than the fact that our younger daughter will be attending as soon as she's old enough.

The teachers are true professionals: knowledgeable, experienced, and the perfect balance of structured yet kind. The school is expertly designed by Simone who holds a Masters in Early Childhood education with decades of experience. Every detail from the mud kitchen, to the various imaginative play areas, to the garden, to the sand area encourage learning in various essential ways. The school is child-led in many of the activities and units of study, yet the staff has the developmental goals of students are always carefully woven in. We had a choice of doing a 3rd year at Seasons or TK and we chose Seasons for the staff and the beautiful community they have built. I never once worried at drop off that my child would be safe, loved, and guided. Thank you Seasons of Wonder!

I had to just edit cause her name popped into my head. Her name was Ann. And I got emails to prove…read morethat she said that I was forcing my kids to read for punishment. It was fucking rude and disrespectful like, who the fuck are you. And our kids are supposed to read 20 minutes a day. This email will be in my book about the trauma that my kids have gone through since 2015. I wanna give you four stars cause you helped me with kids in their homework, but you also were not beneficial to them in private emails. My kids went there for years. But some shady shit was going on. I can't remember her name but she told me I made my kids read for punishment and an email that I still have. But my kids were supposed to read for 20 minutes every day. It was a great place for my kids. They helped with homework because my ex said he doesn't do homework. Everything was put on me and my kids and then when they weren't failing, it was all my fault. But there were also secret court dates in Napa Courts that I do believe that they were involved in and hopefully, the truth comes out with our investigation. Sylvan is a great place as long as they do not get involved in your business. Our traumatize or help traumatize your kids. Our help traumatized are ruining your kid's education to where they do not care anymore. I will not have my kids go back here at all. And you sat there and listened to conversations and still chose the other side and not my kids. Documentations everything I say I've been undercover since 2015. Emails are everything. And yes, I do believe they were in a family court having private meetings. But everybody's gonna know because I have a book and I shared all my information so if anything happens to me, somebody else will publish my book. I would ask for the money back is probably in the hundred thousand. But I didn't pay for it. Precaution and careful and pay attention. And stick up for your kids, even though I did. But I don't know why it took so long for the corruption that's going on around me and my kids to stop and maybe if I had done something a long time ago my kids would've had a better education. I'm not gonna say it on here but if you want further investigation and you're going through hell in Napa Courts and they get involved, there's always a loophole in the law. And if I do find out you were in secret courtrooms trust me I'm posting it everywhere and will pay for advertisement. I don't know how many stars I should give you because you helped me out, but you also went behind my back and neglected my kids in the process. This may not have anything to do with them, but I and a bunch of other people piled up in cars and went to the FBI. Hopefully, everything's investigated now. But there's another investigation going on. I wanna know about this court date. And who is there? So do I give you five stars cause you help my kid or do I give you one star because you kind of screwed us over in the process?

I did, however, have to make multiple rest stops because I was dying lol. View was gorgeous and the picture does not do justice. There were maybe 3 other small groups when we got there but we were so spread apart that we didn't run into each other. On the way back down, I had a mishap and my shoelace hoop hooked onto my other shoes hook and I took a nice fall. It was my mistake and not the trails. I didn't even try to fix my mistake because as we were nearing the parking lot, I tripped again (same reason) and I fell on the rocks right before the asphalt. We had a good laugh. The employee who was on the golf cart was on his way back and saw me on the ground. He kindly asked if I needed help but I was too busy laughing and embarrassed that I declined his help. This will definitely be a memory to remember!
