From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the owner, Elizabeth, who was incredibly kind and inviting. The tour was well organized and never felt rushed.

The animals are exceptionally well cared for (which is so important to us) and are wonderfully social and curious. The entire experience was relaxed, thoughtful, and absolutely delightful. We had such a fantastic day! The farm store is adorable, and the jam is amazing. Highly recommend visiting this special place!

We get funded through San Diego Regional Center and she was really great in accommodating our request and even offered an additional week of Spring Break camp because our school district had a different timeline than the other coastal schools. Coach Brooks and Coach Zora introduced our kid to lots of fun activities such as building forts, tide pooling, building and flying kites, hiking the slot at Annie's Canyon, and even encountering rattlesnakes. This was such a great outdoor activity for our kid in a safe and supportive environment. Being an only child, his exposure to interacting with multi-aged kids has been a tremendous experience. Thank you, Coastal Kiddos, for helping us build one of our child's best core memories!

There's a pig that gets walked by a staff member intermittently, turtles you can get up and personal with, chickens, owls, hawks, falcons, snakes, starfish, etc. This is a great venue to take your kids. They have activities such as story time, and they also have an area where you can learn about the natives. There's areas to hike around the beautiful lagoon. You can be a member or take a look for the day for about $15 which is very reasonable. I believe it's worth it. They really maximized the space. It's a wonderful place!

What she found was so much more than that. She found coaches who believed in her, pushed her, and cared for her as a whole person--not just an athlete. Her mental and physical well-being were always a priority, and that kind of care is rare. Because of this environment, she accomplished something we once thought was out of reach--qualifying for Westerns. That moment alone speaks volumes about what this gym and its coaches are capable of. Coach Ryan and Coach Elizabeth--thank you for pouring into her, for guiding her, and for being such a steady, positive force in her journey. And Nicole, thank you for being the heart of the gym--always greeting her with a smile, especially on the hard days when she needed it most. This wasn't just a gym for us--it became home. As my daughter moves on to her next chapter in college, we do so with full hearts and endless gratitude. And the best part? We're not leaving--our two other team gymnasts are proud to continue being part of this amazing family. If I could give a million stars, it still wouldn't be enough.

My 8 year old loves baseball and wants to play so bad, but we can't commit to the 4 day practice/game commitment of Little League, and it's hard to find any other baseball programs around this area for elementary aged kids. My 8 year old was a little old for the 5-7 program, but Coach allowed him to still participate since there were other 7 year olds in it. He had such a great time! It was a very positive environment, Coach gave good tips to improve technique, and his assistant coaches were kind and talented; I think they were high school kids who play on teams. It's always great to see older kids investing time in the younger generation. I highly recommend this program!

Coach Donald Duck has been laidback and easy to converse with logistically. He does his best to…read morereply and remember all the credits for missed classes. This is exceptional since any other extracurricular policies don't allow make up classes. That alone is what makes it easy as a parent to have that level of understanding and trust knowing your money won't be wasted here. My daughter loved this program and we had the opportunity for Saturdays and at the Goddard School. She started at age 2 and kept becoming a stellar star student with Coach Dino (had to leave for military) and Coach Donald Duck. They teach kids about rewards and earning Phoenix Dollars where you earn and save for prizes at the end of class. My daughter absolutely enjoyed this incentive! Overall we would highly recommend trying out this program early on around 2-3 year old. I personally enjoy the non competitive atmosphere but appreciate the structure of practice/drills. It is both fun and disciplined.

They were very accommodating after I explained my experience. I appreciate when an owner cares and especially from parent to parent, can relate and adjust. We will try it out again in the future! PREVIOUS REVIEW: After being inundated with emails about how flexible they are about camps, I booked a few days thinking that in the worst case (since you can book the night before) that I could just cancel if my kids didn't love it. Overall, my kids did OK, but I could tell it wasn't something they could do for more than 1 day. I opted to not proceed with the camp, but was told there was nothing they could do for me to give me a refund. I can understand if you need to manage staffing, but if you're allowing people to book the night before, clearly its not a staffing issue, you're just unwilling to give parents their money back. I wouldn't recommend booking more than 1 day at a time.

Each program is designed to aid children who need assistance in developing and growing their social skills, and our son has been making leaps and bounds since starting here! Our son has Asperger's syndrome, and Anna has been wonderful in working with him. We did all of our homework, and her credentials all check out (which is something that we always do before working with a service provider.) Both of our boys come for LEGO club, and both of them look forward to it each week, even though we get up fairly early each Saturday to get there. LEGO club proved to be an excellent starting point for the boys, and allowed them to really grow comfortable in the setting before we got the PEERS program set up for our eldest. Now, to the details: the facility is absolutely beautiful. Build inside a dual use location in Carlsbad, the downstairs is set up for the program. Tastefully decorated, it is fun, light, and airy, with plenty of slightly subdued colors that look delightful without being overwhelming. There are plenty of toys, and the collection of LEGO's is constantly expanding. There is a good mix of special needs and typical children, which allows for real interactions that are all supervised and directed by Anna and her staff. Everyone is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accepting. We truly could not be happier! Would I recommend her to family and friends? Absolutely, and have already gone out of my way to do so. If you have a child that is struggling with social interactions, if you have a child who needs a boost, if you have a child who just doesn't quite get it, this is the place to go. We have already seen honest-to-goodness measurable improvements (which as an aside is something that is also done through the PEERS program.) In summary, this program is excellent and Anna makes it all seem so easy. And, if I'm honest, I've probably picked up a pointer or two for applying in my own life as well.

Before ANA, we spent 18 months trying everything: DBT therapy, family systems therapy, private boys coaching, and multiple specialized retreats for struggling teens. None of it helped. In fact, many interventions pushed him even farther away from his best self. ANA, on the other hand, grounded him almost immediately. Now he's on the Dean's List, was voted Best Artist, and loves attending ANA. The other day, I nearly cried when I heard him tell his grandmother, "It's a privilege to attend ANA." His commanding officer captured the essence of the school after a minor infraction: "We are not a reform school. We are not a therapeutic boarding school. We are an elite preparatory academy developing the future leaders of the world. You decide if you belong here." And somehow, through the teachers, counselors, structure, activities, and community, my son decided for himself that he does belong there. ANA gave my son his future back. We are grateful beyond words.
