Here's what I love about it. #1: Everything is very clean. #2: Check in and out is a very secure process. #3: Staff is always warm and kind, my son feels loved and cared for. They really know him, his personality, his emotional needs & they would let me know if he had even a slightly off day. They never made him feel unwanted and I never worried about him not being looked out for. #4: So many fun dress up days, water days during the summer, the cutest winter recitals and a great park! #5: Just the right amount of programming placed on math, reading writing, and we would get assessments on our sons progress and where his strengths were/where he needed work. As a busy family with full time jobs we don't have a ton of time to get a head start on education so he can start Kindergarten with confidence. Little Flowers is doing that for us. #6: The price is fair, it's right around where everyone else is priced, in fact, when I was shopping for child care, this place was the most affordable in Vacaville, other than in home daycares. If you're on the fence, let this be your sign to get signed up. We did have to get on a waitlist as they do take staff to student ratios very seriously and they were full, so don't wait! Thanks again Little Flowers!

This year (2025-2026) she was technically supposed to be in TK because her birthday fell just after the cutoff for Kindergarten but we requested a kindergarten readiness assessment at our local public school and she passed with flying colors! I truly believe her success is a direct reflection of the wonderful teachers and curriculum at TFH Preschool. The staff and teachers are patient, nurturing, and genuinely invested in each child's growth. They provided the perfect balance of learning and play, building my daughter's confidence, independence, and love for school. My most favorite part was the faith-based learning; the kids practiced praying, learned how to pray for one another, and were encouraged to show kindness and gratitude every day. TFH didn't just prepare her academically, they helped her thrive socially and emotionally too. She made beautiful friendships, learned responsibility, and looked forward to going to school. We are beyond grateful for the foundation TFH Preschool gave her. It's clear that the care, structure, and creativity of this school set her up for success in kindergarten this year. I would highly recommend TFH Preschool to any family looking for a warm, enriching, and truly exceptional early learning experience!

VACAVILLE LOCATION Recommend: NO…read more Advice: RUN Appreciation to the director, Lisa and the Bumblebee teachers (Ms. Penny, Ms. Z, and Ms. Amanda) We have a young child and am speaking from our experience with the ladybug class (1 year olds). We are sharing from a place of flexibility, a understanding that mistakes happen, and that we are all ultimately human. However, it becomes concerning when it becomes a pattern. Some teachers presented as overwhelmed, stressed, unkept, careless, burned out and not interested in the child's well-being. Here are several examples: 1. At pick up, another child was wearing our child's change of clothes, despite the clothes being clearly labeled, inside of a clearly labeled bag, AND even inside a clearly labeled cubby that displayed a 8 x 10 photo of our child. 2. A teacher would gossip about other parents in my presence. 3. Our child came home dirty everyday. Let us repeat EVERYDAY. Dirty clothes, yes, but we are referring to filthy face and hair. Dirt, food, snot. Perhaps wiping a face of a child not old enough to do it themselves is not in their standard procedure? 4. Almost weekly, our child's pacifier was being used by another child. This was documented in their posted photos to sutterfly. Teachers did catch this and we understand these are 1 year olds. however, at times teachers have been observed talking among themselves and just sitting there not presently engaging the children and makes one wonder if there were times this was not caught. 5. MULTIPLE times we were asked to update the same paperwork within days to a week of submitting the original. Perhaps misplaced? Overwhelmed? Careless? 6. Eliminating the lunch service was a disappointment. On numerous occasions, teachers verbal report of our child's food and milk intake were inconsistent with the daily written report and even the food left in their lunchbox. We had to throw out perishable items from their lunchbox after we arrived home as numerously the items (yes, nutritious) were not offered to our child at lunch time. When inquired, it was not due to the child declining the item, the teacher took the initiative and decided to save the item for the child's snack. BUT the center provides a snack and the item was forgotten to even be served at snack time. 7. The director and teachers information to parents were numerously inconsistent and contradictory. Confusing. The center did not foster an application of individual development for the 1 year olds. Infants, less than 1, are able to nap based on the child's needs. However, the 1 year old class is structured for children to only have 1 nap at a set time and bottles are highly 'discouraged.' Not child-centered. The littles are forced to fit inside this one-size-fits-all box. Again, not focused on individual development. This may work great for some children but our child at 14 months sometimes needs 2 naps. They may 'say' they will offer another nap but some teachers are not attuned to individual needs and cues. When masks were required by the State and County, a few teachers wore masks inappropriately or even not at all. Unfortunately, they were maskless for the young children that at the time didn't have the option of vaccination due to their age. This was not a isolated experience as the department of social services licensing observed a staff wearing their mask below their chin in the preschool class when required to do so.

Our daughter has autism, and finding a daycare where she is not only accepted but truly understood, supported, and celebrated has meant so much to our family. From day one, the staff has gone above and beyond to learn who she is, understand her individual needs, and find ways to help her feel comfortable and successful. They have been patient, compassionate, encouraging, and willing to think outside the box to help her thrive. They celebrate her accomplishments, no matter how big or small, and continue to encourage her to try new things and grow at her own pace. What means the most to us is that they see our daughter for the amazing child she is--not just her challenges. They recognize her strengths, celebrate her personality, and make sure she feels like she belongs. Knowing that she is surrounded by people who genuinely care about her well-being gives us such incredible peace of mind. The staff has become so much more than caregivers to our family. They have been part of our daughter's growth and have made a meaningful difference in her life. We are incredibly grateful for the love, patience, and dedication they show her every day. If you are looking for a daycare where your child will be cared for, encouraged, and truly seen as an individual, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiddie Academy.

ZERO STAR STORY -…read more I'm writing this review specifically to warn parents of young children who are considering Kiddie Academy for transportation to and from school. My 4-year-old daughter attended Kiddie Academy for only ONE WEEK, and that one week was enough for me to pull her out. Kiddie Academy was responsible for transporting her to her TK class in the morning and picking her up afterward. I never had concerns with afternoon pickup, but the morning transportation was a completely different story. On her very first day, there was confusion about which school she attended, despite all of her paperwork clearly stating the correct school. Throughout that week, she was also arriving at school 10-15 minutes late. The final straw was when Ms. Mel casually informed me, "We got in trouble this morning because they found your daughter wandering the school campus by herself before she made it to class." When I questioned how that could happen, the explanation I was given was, "We told her to get in line." Ms. Mel also explained that their bus drivers are unable to get off the bus to help young children get to their classes. She is FOUR YEARS OLD. If your transportation policy does not allow your driver to get off the bus, then there should be another procedure in place to ensure a four-year-old is safely transferred into the supervision of school staff. Telling a four-year-old to "get in line" and driving away without confirming that she safely made it where she needed to go was completely unacceptable to me. I pulled her out immediately because I no longer trusted Kiddie Academy to transport her safely. When I raised my concerns with Ms. Nickole, I was also extremely disappointed with how the situation was handled and felt the response and apology were unprofessional and dismissive given the seriousness of what happened. I'm sharing this because other parents deserve to know about my experience before trusting this facility with transportation. My daughter was there for only one week, and that was one week too long. I would never recommend Kiddie Academy to anyone I love or care about, especially if you are relying on them to safely transport a young child. Response to owner: I want to clarify that the complaint being closed as "unsubstantiated" does not change what occurred. That is exactly why I question whether the lack of documentation is designed to protect the children or protect the business. A four-year-old being found wandering a school campus unattended after transportation should have warranted formal documentation and immediate notification to the parent--not a casual comment later. Your response also suggests that young children benefit from "fewer transitions." Kiddie Academy offers transportation to young children. If your transportation procedures cannot safely accommodate a four-year-old, then that service should not be offered to children that age. Responsibility should not be shifted onto parents for utilizing a service your business provides. A licensing investigation resulting in no citation does not erase what happened or what was communicated to me by Kiddie Academy staff. Parents can read both sides and decide for themselves whether this is the level of supervision and accountability they are comfortable with for their child.

What they offer in the Family Handbook is not the service they actually provide. The contract they give you is not accurate but they don't notify you of that they expect you to guess. Center Director Sabrina Oldani became disengaged and ignored me and my child after I complained about their lack of communication and breech of contract. She was not welcoming. Did not welcome my child nor introduce herself to my child. I'm really not sure what her job is or why she sits in a reception area and then doesn't receive the children with any positive energy. Just, yuck energy and unprofessional. Business Manager Jenny is deceptive and will talk in circles to avoid any accountability for the behavior of her staff or the lack of communication or follow through on the promises made in the Family Handbook meant to give Families a Top Tier experience which you absolutely pay for by the way. I found her to be condescending and dismissive of my experience. She makes excuses and passes blame onto the parent for not knowing their policies...when they don't seem to know them either. Ultimately, while the curriculum seems pretty cool, they are under staffed. They do not communicate (see previous 5 star review from another yelper that addresses the lack of communication as well so it's not just a ME problem as Jenny tried to indicate when I spoke with her). They do not take COVID seriously and just had an outbreak where my Daughter was exposed and has to quarantine now. They do not have children wash their hands when they get dropped off nor have them wear masks and even after the outbreak I witnessed Sabrina with her mask down and not socially distancing. They allow parents all throughout the facility. On at least 3 occasions when I popped in unannounced to drop off paperwork I could hear the infant room and the babies were crying as though they were distressed and they were crying for a long time. On one occasion I heard a Teacher yell at an infant to "Knock it off, just because you can't get what you want!" While the baby cried. After 2 weeks of attending this school....my Daughter still didn't know the names of any of the adults watching her everyday except for her main Teacher who was only there the first week. My daughter is exceptionally smart and a big communicator so her not knowing the names of the people watching her told me that they were not forming relationships with her at all and/or had a revolving door of people in her classroom. Which is also probably why she came in contact with COVID. **They charge an extra $55 if you drop off your kids between 630a - 8am. and a $35 fee if they stay till 6:30p. *$1385 a month was what I was paying ***Check Glass Door and read the reviews from employees of The Learning Experience as a whole. What you will see are consistent complaints of being understaffed, disorganized, high turn over, lack of care from Management ect. from all over the country which shows you they have a flawed business model as a whole (I wish I would have checked this before deciding on this place) My final takeaway is that the Management staff just wants to get as many people enrolled as possible. The teachers I met all seemed to be cool and the only staff members I found to be distasteful for me personally were Sabrina and Jenny. But anyway be aware and good luck. Maybe you'll have a better experience than I did but it was too many red flags on the play for me.

But the staff at TLE made me feel so comfortable and secure when I first visited and have never let me down since. They always provide detailed updates and photos through their app. I love seeing my daughter participate in reading circles, art and science projects, music time (she loves to dance) and general fun with her classmates. Plus, she loves the food. While my daughter has only been in two classrooms (infant and toddler), I've had the opportunity to meet several teachers. They are all dedicated and happy to help and answer any and all questions (and I have a lot). The front staff, Miss Biane and Miss Jade, are also wonderful. They keep us up to date on everything going on with the school and are great at posting notices and protecting students from the various illnesses that our kids pass around. I couldn't have picked a better place for my daughter and she'll be at TLE until she's off to kindergarten.

She showed us the rooms, helped us envision what we wanted, took care of tables/chairs rental, met me early at the school and even helped us set up/tear down. There was also a back room for us to put everything we needed to store out of the way (trays, cutlery, bags etc) and a bathroom. The older kids (2-10) loves playing with the kitchenette, puzzles, toys and blocks in one room, and then joined the littles to burn some energy in the gym.

VCS has also given our daughter the courage and confidence to try new things and put herself out there in ways she never had before. Last year, she was introduced to musical theater for the very first time. She was nervous and hesitant to try it, but she quickly fell in love with her instructors and made new friends.
