She watched my first child from the time he was one year old until 4 years and my second child from 6 months old until 4 years. Both my kids love Mrs. Beavers and still talk about her all the time. She treated them like her own. She is kind, patient, loving and guides them towards appropriate behavior with the other children. Both of my kids learned their ABCs, numbers, colors, shapes and animals at a very young age. I had complete trust in Mrs. Beavers and her assistants. Before I found her, I used a different in-home daycare that didn't have the same caring attention or focus on learning that Mrs. Beavers creates in her daycare. We miss her a lot and are so grateful for the love and care she gave my children for so long. Finding the right child care provider can be a nerve-wracking process. I always felt so comfortable with Mrs. Beavers and highly recommend her daycare.

Love the diversity of the group of children and that the place is kept very clean. We're not a TV family so I'm personally not into the TV being on throughout the day, however I think other parents don't mind this; and I wish they experimented with more art. I do respect that this is an at-home daycare and it's a different experience than preschools. I trust Ms. Beavers and her daughter Dierdre with my baby, and I looked around for a long time before I found a place I trusted to leave my daughter at all day. Also the fact the daycare has remained open during COVID with a small group of kids has been an absolute lifesaver. I recommend Ms. Beaver's daycare in a heartbeat!

Our little one just graduated pre-K last Friday it was such a bittersweet moment leaving CPCC after…read moretwo years, and we'd all miss the wonderful teachers and staff who made him who he is today. When he first started he did have to adjust -- I'm assuming it's because of how big the class is in comparison to his previous daycare. But it didn't take long for him to blossom, all thanks to Ms. Tonja & Ms. Lorraine's class! Then he moved to Mrs. Jennifer & Mrs. Cassie's class the following year, and he absolutely loved it. When we had to travel during my husband's paternity leave to visit my parents in Asia, he kept asking when we'd go back because he'd missed his friends and teachers. We clearly see the genuine love that's poured towards the kids not only from the teachers, but also the staffs. Not only they remember each of the kids' names, they also give hugs (and stickers, ha) on the daily basis. The principal is also very involved, which we appreciated. Would highly recommend anyone to put their kids at CPCC-- it's worth the wait and every penny. Can't wait for the baby brother to join in a couple of years!

My concern is specifically with the director, not the teachers or entire staff. I understand that…read moredealing with conflicts between children and families is not easy, but that is also why someone in a director position needs to remain neutral and consistent and not make decisions based on personal relationships with the families. There is a difference between enforcing school policies and personally involving yourself in a conflict based on emotions or assumptions. This became especially concerning in an incident involving a child who was repeatedly being bitten and hit by another student, resulting in bruises and eventually a fear of going to school at all. While I understand there are procedures the school must follow when addressing incidents between students, my concern is with how the director handled the situation beyond those procedures. From what I witnessed, she became personally involved and appeared to let her own emotions and assumptions influence her response rather than remaining neutral. All in all, my takeaway is that if your child ever has an issue involving another family at this school, I would hope that family does not have a close relationship with the director. Based on what I witnessed, I would have serious concerns about whether both sides would be treated equally and without favoritism.

She welcomed my baby with open arms and took care of him like he was family. She provides good meals for breakfast and lunch and fun and healthy snacks.Both my sons are huge fruit and veggie eaters thanks to Sharon!  As time has gone by Sharon has became like family. She has been there for us for happy moments like when our second son was born and she has been supportive in very difficult moments too. 2 years ago my oldest son was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.  Sharon has been very supportive though the entire process. She provides the attention and support he needs. She makes sure my son is ready for pick up when he has dr or therapy  appointments. She helps with communication between the school bus driver and myself if there is a incident on the school bus. One time he had a meltdown on the bus. The bus driver didn't know why so when he was dropped off Sharon took the time to ask what was wrong she took him for a tiny stroll up the street (2 houses down) asked if he was ready to go inside and he felt better said yes he was ready to go inside. The fact that she allowed him to express and explain why he was upset himself meant a lot to us. That is the type of person you get with Sharon. She is very caring for the little ones. She is a huge blessing in my life and we are so glad we chose her as our child care provider. She is now family to us!

Thank You Bonnie I highly recommend Miss Bonnie to everybody ive came across she has been a Blessing to my Family.

***Please read before sending your baby/toddler here****…read more I searched yelp for a reliable child care provider for my son. Chino family daycare/Bonni had 5 star reviews but, not recent. I decided to set up a meeting for a tour. When I first met Bonni I expected our meeting to open up with her describing the services she would offer our son and family. Unfortunately, that is not how the meeting panned out. One of the first topics was regarding the deposit that had to be paid before he would be considered as a candidate for her child care. Bonni requested that we bring our son in so she could make the determination if he would be a good fit for her childcare business. I was immediately alarmed by her lack of concern and lack of interaction with our son. She showed us the small room that is approximately a 10x20 make shift den that other parents described as "a kiddy prison." The kids are isolated to that room for 90% of the day with limited to no outside activities. She placed a kiddy gate separating the predominant kids area from the rest of her house. Babies can't even breathe. Bonni said that she had 3 dogs but that they did not have any contact with the kids because they are fenced off in the backyard. The dogs are medium/large breed dogs. However, I discovered one day when I arrived early, that the dogs were inside the house right next to kiddy gate that separates the kids from the living room. For parents that have children that are allergic to dog hair or that have a fear of dogs, Bonni's dogs bark at the kids when they are outside in the small outside play area and whenever parents drop off & pickup. The dogs are able to make physical contact with the kids if the kids are remotely close to the short fence outside. My son was terrified during our meeting because the dogs barked at him and scared him. I thought that this would be a good opportunity for our son to get used to dogs, since he hasn't had any exposure. I quickly learned that the dogs continued to bark. Bonni and her husband were always heard yelling at the dogs to stop barking. Ultimately, we decided to enroll our son out of desperation into Bonni's home. Despite all of the obvious red flags. Bonni asked us if we had been in touch with any of the local in-home daycares, she wanted us to know that she networks and knows all of the other in-home child day care providers. Bonni also stressed that there was no curriculum in her home. I asked her if she reads to the kids, her response was that "she has books." My experience with Bonni was her leaving the tv on all day and allowing the tv to entertain the kids. She would leave the kids unattended while she was doing other things in the home. I witnessed this on multiple occasions when I arrived earlier than expected to pick up my son. Bonni appeared frazzled and made a comment about me showing up early but it is listed in the contract that parents are able to show up at anytime to check on their kids without prior notice. Other occurrences include her adult son and daughter in law talking to her while they were outside and she was in the kitchen. The kids were in the room by themselves. She and her husband also look after their young grand daughter in the home during business hours. 1 day, I walked in and there was a male adult, which I assumed was her son and a female adult which I believe was her daughter in law, in the room with the kids along with their own baby. This room is very small and it leaves the kids very little room for their own space. The kids here are consistently sick with runny noses and coughs. My son got sick the first week he started. Bonni diagnosed my son with a croupy cough, but she is not a licensed medical professional. I was alarmed and took my son to the ER. Dr.told me he was fine. I made an apptment to follow up the next week and I informed Bonni. She said taking my son to the Dr. required a release note to go back to her daycare. She allowed sick kids to continue attending her daycare but asked us for a note cuz we took preventive measures by taking him to the Dr.. I have seen Bonni blame my son for being too big for her high chair. She tried to lift my son out of the high chair and his leg got stuck but she asked him "What are you doing!" She was blaming him! She has a very dry personality, always seems to be annoyed by having to take care of the children. I have witnessed Bonni being inpatient and mean to other toddlers. They are defenseless! Bonni constantly questioned me about if I worked that day. I finally told her she was being intrusive & not to ask me questions that didn't pertain to her caring for our son. She spoke to me like she was scolding me. Unprofessional. look at the dates of her recent reviews, the positive reviews immediately follow the negative. Do not trust.

A lot of daycares have small, musty grounds that seem uncomfortable for children to be cooped up in all day, but the Montessori Academy of Chino has HUGE, open, sunny classrooms with plenty of space for the kids. The entrance is secure and the sign in/out process is easy on their device (no annoying sheets to sign every day). Their outside area is gated and faces away from the street, so it also feels very safe. Secondly, the staff are attentive. Outside of the classroom, on the rare occasion I've had an issue, the director or owner have communicated quickly and directly. Inside the classroom, the teachers are nice and seem like they enjoy their job. They have plenty of fun activities for the kids and are wonderful about having special events! There is occasional turnover, but that is to be expected with any early education center. The main teachers have stayed consistent which is great for the kids.

They have become family. We are endlessly grateful for the care they give, the values they instill, and the love they pour into every child. They are truly angels on earth, and we feel incredibly blessed to have them in our lives.
