We are so grateful for our four years at Little Wonders Montessori. Our son started in the "little…read moreschool" with Mr. Michael and is now finishing in Ms. Galyna's "big school". He's loved every year and it's been amazing to watch him grow in confidence and develop a genuine excitement for learning. The teachers take the time to understand each child's unique personality. We've been impressed with how they truly foster kindness, independence, and a love of learning. We also really like the balance of Montessori learning and traditional academics. Thanks to their guidance, our son is more than ready for kindergarten and was accepted into our private school of choice. He's also made wonderful friends and so many great memories. Some of his favorite moments include the class pumpkin patch trips, dressing up for Ms. Galyna's annual tea party, and fun pajama days. We've loved seeing photos of his projects, Montessori activities, baking days, gardening, music time, and so much more. We can't thank Little Wonders enough for giving our son such a strong, nurturing foundation.

We have been amazed at his growth over the last year now that we are at the "Big kid" school. His excitement about school, his achievements in writing drawing, and his feelings toward his friends and teachers is amazing to watch. Ms Galyna organizes cooking, baking, and cultural activities throughout the year that enrich the kids experience at school and in the world. Her joy at watching the kids fall in love with learning and each other is wonderful to experience as a parent. We will forever be thankful we found the perfect place for him to thrive.

Sunset Co-op gave us a community of families to share in the trials of raising young humans without judgement. It gave us a network of adults that our kids know and trust to help us when we need it. It gave us parents wisdom and scientific backing around a toddlers emotional and physical capabilities, so we can make better decisions at any given moment. It helped me have more empathy for kids that are disregulated or need more help. You will never be a perfect parent, but I would not be as confident of a parent as I am now without the learnings I took away from Sunset Co-op. We applied for the AM session. We didn't get it. We were offered the PM session. We took it. We never regretted it. My son dropped the nap. He transitioned just fine. We had empty museums and parks in the morning all to ourselves before school. If you are willing to put in the time and effort into the community for however long you're at Sunset, you will reap all the benefits forever.

The school offers a variety of fun and engaging activities, including singing, dancing, and planting small plants. My daughter will be graduating from Growing Tree this August. I'm especially grateful for her teacher this past year -- Teacher Li. She is an experienced and caring educator who teaches the children many songs, dances, and even helps them perform in plays. Every week, my daughter comes home singing new songs and showing us new dances. Her crafting skills have improved a lot -- she brings home creative art projects every week. Her Mandarin has also improved significantly; she can now speak more fluently and even recognize some simple Chinese characters.

This school feels like a second home, and the teachers feel like family. I can go to work knowing my son is in a place where he is not only educated but truly cared for. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Short story: Little Star Preschool Too is a fantastic choice because of the campus size, location,…read moreincluded meals, and most importantly, the teachers and educators who care so so much for your little ones! Long story: Little Star Preschool Too was my top choice from the beginning when I was touring preschools. I was delighted to see the campus (plenty of parking spots, quiet neighborhood, residential location and close to restaurants for afterschool pick up)! The preschool is large and has a huge yard for the children to play in during "recess" and at the end of the day. I think the actual amount of land they have for a school is impressive as the children are able to get their wiggles out without having to travel to a local park. While I was dazzled by the tour of the campus, I was absolutely amazed by the teachers and staff! They are all genuinely loving and greatly care about the well-being of the children! I am always greeted with a smile by each of the staff members during drop off. My child has so much fun playing with her peers and the large variety of toys, doing daily arts and crafts, eating their provided lunch and learning new subjects! She took a little bit of time to warm up to being in school and her teacher was so patient with her, spending extra time with her to help her transition. Other teachers and staff would step in to help out too if her teacher was not immediately available for help. Not only does the school teach "regular subjects" like letter recognition and counting, they also teach real life skills like what streetlights and stop signs are used for! (The school had a cute field trip around the neighborhood teaching the children about road safety). There are also a lot of extra features added to the curriculum to help enrich the children's education. There were dance performances, field trips, readings from books regarding different cultural festivals and traditions. The school is just so awesome and I am very happy with my choice. Thumbs up!

I chose Little Star Preschool for my toddler for many reasons:…read more- Full day care (dropoff as early as 7:30 a.m., though the school day starts shortly after 9 a.m.; pickup by 5:30 p.m.) and instruction is year-round. - Mid-year entry (my son started in January) - A large play yard and clean, bright indoor spaces - Meals and snacks are included (you send your kid with a lunchbox with sides, and they provide the main dish) Most importantly, my toddler is pretty shy around new people and slow to warm. I appreciated that Little Star Preschool encouraged multiple playdate visits before he officially started, so that he could get used to the space and staff. All of the teachers were kind, patient, and gentle with him as he transitioned from a small daycare to preschool. They allowed him time to adjust and let him just observe at first, as he preferred, while holding onto his stuffy. His language skills have really exploded (I love hearing him repeat, "Wake up, little bodies!") and I know he's cared for while learning and playing.

I actually found this school via Yelp so it only makes sense to leave a Yelp review in return. We were lucky enough to experience the school pre-pandemic and get involved in their Parent Club where we could give feedback and organize family events for the kids. The Parent Club has since disbanded due to covid safety protocols, but hopefully it'll return in the future as I really enjoyed the community aspect of it. Speaking of the pandemic, the director, Kelsi, and her assistant, Sarah, have been so wonderful with handling the roller coaster that is covid. Partitions were put in place to separate the classes, and all staff are vaccinated/masked. I've never felt unsafe or worried about the spread of covid here, even in 2020 when there were so many unknowns. The teachers are all very friendly, caring, and patient. When it comes to curriculum, my kids learned their ABCs and counting, how to be respectful of others, nature, art. My kids always left the school day with a smile on their faces, which is so important to me. We miss you already, Kids Kollege!

I spoke with The Director, Isabel over the phone and we scheduled a tour of the school. When we went to the facility, our first impression of the school itself was impressive in terms of organization and layout. Unfortunately I can't say I was impressed with the way the staff welcomed us. Although Isabel was pleasant, I felt like I was being rushed and pushed out pretty quickly. The stidents were there and were getting distracted since I was there with not only my 3 year old but also my 5 month old. Some of the children were coming up to the stroller and looking at the baby and I can see in the teachers faces that they were irritated. I even tried to apologize for the distraction but they pretty much ignored me with just a frustrated look on their faces. Basically I left feeling like we were not welcomed in the first place. When I called Isabel to express my feeling and said I would like to come back so we can talk and have more questions answered she basically was fine with us coming back but never really addressed the way I felt when we first came- nothing - all she said was that her teachers are very good. I told her I was not doubting that her teachers were good, I was simply telling her how I felt when we first came on a tour. Basically, I'm sure the school is good, but I felt the cold shoulder from the teachers which didn't rub me the right way. I didn't feel welcomed at all.
