    Absolutely Exceptional - More Than Just a School…read more Year after year, this Montessori school continues to amaze our family. It is rare to find a place that balances rigorous academic excellence with such a genuine focus on character development and respect. We have watched our youngest (now 4) blossom here over the last two years. The growth in his education level is nothing short of outstanding--he is learning concepts I wouldn't have expected at his age, yet he is doing it with joy and curiosity. But beyond the academics, what impresses me most is the school's commitment to constantly bringing in new activities and enhancing the learning environment. They never settle; they are always finding ways to be better. A few amazing days of the year for you and the family: All the Holidays - The school ensures we celebrate holidays from across all cultures and life. Fathers' Night: An amazing way to connect their children with their fathers. One of the best moments I look forward to every year. I Mother Tea Time: Another amazing experience for the children to spend some quality academic and fun time with their moms. This standard of excellence isn't limited to just one teacher; it is consistent across the board. Every staff member, at every level, cares deeply about these children. If you are looking for a place that will truly invest in your child's future, this is it. We couldn't be happier.

From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth, respect, and genuine care the staff has for each child. The classrooms are beautifully organized, calm, and filled with engaging materials that spark curiosity and independence. From Ms. Deb, to Ms. Cindy, to Ms. Ghazal, to Ms. Alyssa, to Ms. Gloria-- everyone has become like family to us! Most importantly, my child feels safe! With the Playground app, teachers and parents can communicate and receive regular updates about my child's day. The sense of community is strong, and we always feel welcomed and supported. If you're looking for a nurturing, inspiring place where children learn through hands-on experience and develop a lifelong love of learning, I highly recommend Dainty.

    Dainty Montessori has honestly been the best choice we've made. Our toddler was at another school…read morefor a few months before we found Dainty, and she cried at every single drop-off and pick-up. I was nervous about switching things up on a two-year-old, but the moment we toured with Ms. Deb, I felt so much better. She's the director, and her cheerful, positive vibe is something the kids really pick up on. She made both our daughter and us feel totally at ease right away. To my surprise--and honestly, my immense gratitude--our daughter has never cried at drop-off at Dainty. The only tears we see are tiny pouts at pick-up because she doesn't want to leave. She truly never wants to miss a day. She started at 2.5 in the Butterfly room with Ms. Cindy and Ms. Ghazal, who were both amazing and taught her so much. The environment is safe, friendly, and full of teachers who leave the kind of impression that sticks with a child for life. We had a few little transition hiccups early on, but Ms. Deb handled everything quickly and thoughtfully. Now my daughter is with Ms. Alyssa and comes home excited to share whatever new thing she learned that day. The teachers all support each other, too, and she has a great connection with Ms. Liiana, who teaches the next age group up. Whenever someone hears that my three-year-old is "in school," they assume it's just a daycare. But Dainty is so much more than that--it's a truly remarkable school with an incredible staff. They put so much time and effort into every event and holiday. The kids have a blast, and honestly, so do the parents.

    Our daughter, Jermanee Worley, has attended Sunshine House Preschool for the past two years. To be…read morehonest, our experience started off as a roller coaster. As first-time parents, it was definitely a difficult and emotional situation to navigate. There was a period when we truly felt that Jermanee was being targeted because she is African American. She was frequently coming home with "ouch reports" after being hit at school, which became very concerning for us. Eventually, Jermanee began defending herself, and it then seemed like she was being viewed as the aggressor. It is such an important and emotional stage in a child's life because they are still learning how to communicate, express emotions, and respond to conflict. Navigating those situations as first-time parents was not easy. However, after we shared our concerns and had open conversations with the staff, things began to improve significantly. Mrs. Cani truly helped turn our experience around. She listened to our concerns, showed compassion, and helped create an environment where Jermanee felt supported and cared for. Mrs. Michelle also made a tremendous impact on Jermanee. Over time, we could clearly see that her teachers genuinely cared about her and wanted the best for her. We also absolutely love the events they host. Pizza Night was amazing, and we appreciate how they go out of their way to honor mothers and fathers through special events and family breakfasts. The picture updates throughout the day are also a wonderful touch because they allow parents to see their child smiling, learning, and enjoying their day. Now, Jermanee gives her teachers hugs before she leaves every day, which says a lot. While our journey was not perfect, we truly appreciate the staff members who helped create a more positive, loving, and supportive experience for our daughter and our family.

When we went to tour the school, my son seemed instantly comfortable and didn't want anything to do with us which was how we knew this was the place for him. He was usually a Velcro child and we couldn't be further than an arms reach from him without him freaking out. The school is always VERY clean, decorated so nicely with kids artwork and so cute for holidays, and they have a sweet chicken that loves the kids! All of the staff is so sweet, patient, and understanding. My son had a hard time adjusting to not being home with me all day and was later diagnosed with autism and they never once made him feel less than. Instead, they were able to pick up on his needs like needing his schedule to stay the same, how to talk to him when he's doing something he shouldn't without him freaking out, and helped in his potty training journey. He is now almost 5 and aging out soon but I couldn't be more grateful for everything they have done for him. Our daughter is currently enrolled since she turned 18 months and everyday she comes home with new words (she just turned 2), loves the staff, and loves her friends and environment there. If you choose a preschool for your child , let it be this one, you won't be disappointed.

It is an absolutely wonderful facility for kids; be it the nutritious/delicious homemade meals and snacks made from scratch or the safe and spacious environment. This daycare is HIGHLY recommended. We will certainly miss Lucky Bear dearly.

    We recently had to switch daycare providers and found that the newly opened Lucky Bear was very…read moreclose to our house. We loved our old place, but it was hard for the provider to reserve two spots for our kids considering that we only need help one day per week. After speaking with several providers in Brentwood, we decided between Lucky Bear and one other place. The one thing that made us reluctant to enroll here was that we were the first family to join. However, Alla was happy to provide us with professional references from her career as a teacher, and invited us to meet with her family for an extended interview. The home is perfectly set up; with a great play area outdoors and a big rotating selection of toys. The emphasis here is education, which is HUGE for my wife and I (especially since I am a teacher). Alla has a "school schedule" for the kids and tailors the curriculum to the appropriate ages. Our kids bring home cute crafts, learning materials (like study books that Alla has made for them), and they always eat well. Alla also cooks lunches with fresh and healthy ingredients. Aside from all of this, Alla is just great with kids. My kids adore her and ask about going to Alla's house often. Any parent can relate to how unnerving it is to leave their kids at a new place, but we highly recommend Lucky Bear for anyone looking for a small adult-child ratio and a positive and loving environment.

    As a Kindergarten teacher, I know the importance of a quality preschool program. My son has been…read morein a full time daycare setting since he was 11 months, and while he was learning many academics with his care provider, I wanted more. For me, it's not about how much academics a child knows entering into kindergarten, but their ability to function in a school setting. Miss Shanon provides excellent kindergarten readiness in a true, classroom setting. My son is being exposed to a wide variety of learning opportunities in a developmentally appropriate classroom setting. He understands what it means to go to school, and that school is where we go to learn (as opposed to nap and all other things daycare related ). He is learning how to follow instructions, how to follow a schedule, how to sit on the rug, and how to interact with his peers. From a teacher perspective, Miss Shanon is phenomenal. She is organized, professional, loving, knowledgeable, calm, approachable, the list goes on. She uses the open court curriculum, and I am impressed with how much my son knows. He is a young 3 year old, and knows his letters and sounds. He has excellent number sense. Every week, he is engaged in meaningful crafts, writing activities, and hands on activities. He sings songs and retells stories. I am always impressed with how much he is learning, and how happy he is. Miss Shanon organizes field trips and other fun events for the kids. Kids corner has far exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to many more experiences.

    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.

I still remember my daughter crying every day when she first came here, but her teachers accompanied and enlightened her patiently.

I am really thankful to Ms Passionai, Angie and Vanessa, they have given a lot of love and patience to my daughter. I thank God for leading me and my daughter here and meeting all people here.
