The community of parents is extraordinary and we've made some amazing friends.

My daughter loves coming here- I cannot recommend it enough.

My daughter has been at Hopper Creek Montessori for over a year, and the growth we've seen in her…read morehas been incredible. She started off shy and quiet, but now she confidently walks up to kids on the playground and makes friends with ease. Her language has taken off, and she comes home every day full of stories, artwork, and excitement. The environment is warm, calm, and joyful--kids are truly allowed to be kids here. They're free to play, be messy, be silly, and explore at their own pace. The structure is thoughtful but not rigid, and it makes all the difference. Brenna and Tamara are amazing. Brenna is always there--literally. She greets families every morning and is deeply involved in every part of the day. She's constantly bringing in new activities and makes sure each child feels seen and supported. Tamara is so kind and nurturing, and my daughter adores her. One of my favorite things about Hopper Creek is that I'm welcome to stay and watch my daughter play at pick-up. Whether she's building a city with blocks or coloring with friends, I get to quietly join in--those moments are priceless.

Caring and dedicated staff were pushed out, and the final straw was when our child came home with bruising on his neck and shoulder where Brenna had dug her fingernails into him. She is not a safe person, and it is shocking that she is still allowed around children.

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?

Every month the school sends out the curriculum and theme they follow, and days are filled with fun activities, dress up ideas and projects all focused on learning. You get a full schedule (art, circle time, literacy, outdoor and STEAM) of what they do and updates of their day via the app. I loved seeing pictures of my child enjoying each project they curated for the week. The children are so loved and nurtured, you can tell teachers are intentional about their care towards each child. Snacks are always healthy and yummy! They've managed to get my kid snacking on veggies. Go figure. Furthermore, as a mother of two children on two campuses- the rooms were always very clean or being cleaned. As many of you know, preschools can be a breeding ground for a plethora of germs and I'm glad Little Ivy does all they can to combat that. So thank you Miss Angie, Miss Verenice, Miss Heidi, Miss Erica, Miss Ana, Miss Monica, Miss Clovelly and Miss Briana. My child has been forever changed by you.

He was suspended mutiple times due to being bullied and him getting upset. This school staff would lose my son and call me to come find him on campus. Also, sent him to mental hospital without notifying his parents then told me they didnt know where he had gone. And couldnt explain his whereabouts. They let other kids bully him who were white but refused to disapline the children. This school is full of gangs and the staff refuse to look at evidence when presented to them. I spent everyday going back and forth to the school mulitple times to get my son on track because the school doesnt have sufficent supervision for the children. I have heard from several of the students about sexual activity that happens on campus in the garden area where students can go because they know there are not enough supervision on campus. I have had students try to sell my son drugs on campus and seen students vaping in front of the school. I tried several times to remove my student from the school only to be told they would try harder. Finally i just put him in homestudies to avoid the stress of having to school my son at the school because the teachers do not emply any type of discipline!!!!

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.

Lali was incredible -- she fully prepared both of them for Kindergarten and gave them such a strong academic foundation before they even started school. I know some people hear "home daycare" and think there's a stigma attached to it, but this was genuinely the best possible place for my children. She provided excellent care, healthy meals, structure, and an education that I honestly don't think they would have received at many other daycares in the area. Because it's smaller, the one-on-one attention she gave each child helped both of mine excel academically before and after entering school. She came highly recommended to me by another mom whose three daughters attended for six years, and now I completely understand why. We are forever grateful for the love, care, and dedication Lali gave our family over the years
