Our son is about to "graduate" from Arcadia Playschool and it has been a great experience with the…read morePlayschool in the past 3 years. In the beginning, our son (18-month old) had challenges being with a group of friends and Mr. Dave, Ms. Ranum, and teachers had so much patience and positive attitude working with my son to overcome it. They assisted with the potty train process which helped us so much. The school also handled Covid situation well, and we never had to worry about it. Our son enjoys his time here. He makes good friends and he loves all the teachers from three different age classes. This place makes our parenting life to have one less thing to worry about. I recommend this school to all our friends and families. We have signed up our second son to be here and we will suggest you to take a tour to see it yourself!

This is a wonderful place and we are so glad our daughter could go here for her first school…read moreexperience. The owners and staff are attentive, accommodating, and easy to talk to. Our child began with major separation anxiety, but thanks to the teachers who stuck by her side, she began dancing and having fun in as little as four days and the crying at drop-off stopped after 2 weeks, at which point she began to run inside to be with her teachers and friends. The facility is very clean, safe, and built with growing kids in mind. They have a really good curriculum and great activities in each classroom. In the toddler class (ages 18-36mo & where our child was) they have a 6-to-1 child/teacher ratio. If I had to complain about one thing, it's that I wish we could get more photos/videos and updates throughout the day, but since I also don't want the teachers on cell-phones all day long, it's an okay trade off knowing that our kid will come home happy everyday and sometimes with cool art projects in hand! The staff also does a great job notifying us of any incidents (booboos, bites, runny noses) that need our immediate attention or knowledge. They have a good, effective covid policy in place too and if I'm not mistaken only one child tested positive for covid since the pandemic began, but the child stayed home and quarantined. The entire school/staff was then dismissed to get tested and the results were all negative. To protect everyone, they check everyone's temps upon arrival and they won't hesitate to send children home for high temps or any covid-like symptoms. I would highly recommend anyone to come here, especially if it's their child's first school. They do a wonderful job.

We thought we knew what to expect from preschool, having already sent our older son through one…read morewhen we lived in a different city, but Creative Child Preschool in Temple City still managed to pleasantly surprise us. I hope this review helps other parents new to the area see what a gem this school has been for busy parents like ourselves. First is the schedule. Drop-off starts earlier than most other schools in the area, and pick-up is any time before 6pm. This translate to tangible flexibility for two working parents. We'd heard about, and experienced, other preschools with shorter hours that even take weeks off for spring and winter break like the public school calendar. Believe me when I say I'm eternally grateful we never had to manage those schedule gaps with Creative Child. Next is the physical space. The school itself feels like a home, each room beautifully decorated and cozy. The school yard is huge, with swings, slides, and a sandbox. Whenever we visit, my daughter is running and jumping through the yard with her friends like it's her own personal jungle gym. There are also add-ons we could opt into throughout the week. My daughter looked forward to Tuesday tap dancing every single week, along with Mandarin and My Gym classes. These are activities right on campus during school hours. Outside of school hours, we even got to invite her grandparents to her tap recital, and it turned into such a great family bonding moment. Creative Child doesn't feel like just a place to drop off your kid. I appreciate how intentional they are about pulling parents into the experience all year long. I did a mechanical bull ride with my daughter on Father's Day. We built gingerbread houses together during the holidays. The summer calendar get even better with magician, petting zoo, splash days, and more! The teachers are superstars here. The school is intimate enough that the teachers are familiar to all the kids, even if they're not the primary instructor for their class. So as my daughter moved up each year, she was never meeting anyone brand new, just a familiar face she hadn't had as her main teacher yet. Ms. Denise, Ms. Annie, Mr. Viet, Ms. Sharon, Ms. Susan, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Giselle all became familiar to her over the years, and I think that consistency built so much of her confidence. My daughter had trouble pronouncing her "s" sounds early on, enough that we got a professional consult just to be safe. Once she started in the Imagineer class with Ms. Denise, her speech noticeably improved week after week. I felt like she's already performing at a kindergarten level even though she's not even at that age yet. And the food deserves a mention. Ms. Rosie runs the kitchen, and she's a magician. My daughter won't touch oatmeal at home, but somehow cleans her bowl at school. We joke that we need to steal the recipes from Ms. Rosie someday, because the quality of meals in the public school system isn't even close in comparison. Lastly, getting to know the other families in our cohort made it clear we'd landed somewhere special. So many families here are rooted in the local community, and I learned so much just from talking to other parents, tips on neighborhood activities, what to expect once public school starts, from families with older siblings already there. Those are the invisible benefits nobody tells you when searching for a preschool. We definitely got more out of the school than what we paid for. Creative Child gave us the school part and the community part, and we're genuinely going to miss it when she finally graduates and enter the public school system. Creative Child Temple City simply exceeded our expectations in every way!

I truly can't say enough wonderful things about this preschool. Both of my sons attended here, and…read moreI'm so grateful we found them. It's so much more than just drop-off and pick-up--it truly feels like family. Every single teacher is amazing. Ms.Denise, Ms. Sharon, Ms. Susan, Ms. Annie, Mr. Viet, Ms. Giselle, and Ms. Jessica have all played such an important role in my boys' lives. They are caring, patient, and genuinely invested in the kids. My boys learned so much here, not only academically but also socially. By age 3 1/2, my son could recognize all his letters and was already starting to write his name. The teachers make learning fun, creative, and engaging while bringing out the best in each child. Ms. Denise, who is not only a teacher but also the director. Her impact on the school and children is truly special. She is incredibly involved and intentional about creating an environment where kids feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. Her creativity makes learning fun for the kids. She also does an amazing job preparing them for kindergarten. Both of my boys were very well prepared and academically ahead when they started. I truly credit the strong foundation they received here. The school also puts so much thought, creativity, and love into all their events throughout the year. They create such fun memories for the children and families, and I've even made some wonderful parent friends along the way. I love that they offer Chinese class. It's so cute seeing my boys sing in Chinese. And to mention the healthy, fresh food is such a bonus. Ms. Rosie has been the chef for years and prepares the kids' meals daily, from breakfast to lunch. Somehow, the teachers even get my kids to eat vegetables at school! I also appreciate the consistency of the staff. There is very little turnover and many teachers have been there for years. Both of my boys had the same teachers and they have always had such wonderful things to say about them. We feel incredibly lucky to have been part of this preschool family. This preschool truly holds a special place in our hearts.

Every single teacher here is exceptionally nice, patient, and genuinely invested in the children's growth. They create such a warm, welcoming environment that my son looked forward to going to school every single day. What we love most about the curriculum is the perfect balance it strikes: Strong Academics & Creativity: They have an impressive academic foundation that fully prepared my son for his next big step into elementary school, but they always keep it full of creativity, imagination, and fun. Endless Activities: The school keeps the kids engaged with a wonderful variety of activities that brought out the best in my son's curiosity. Amazing Care: As a parent, peace of mind is everything. The school safety is top-notch. Plus, it is incredibly convenient that they provide two healthy snacks and a nutritious lunch every day, which my son loved.

We have loved all of his teachers, he enjoys being there, and we know that he is safe and cared for. The program is play-based and developmentally appropriate. The teachers do not just "let the kids play" and supervise-- they work hard to curate activities and materials that grow children's' knowledge of the world through weekly themes, and they attentively support the children to build their social/emotional and cognitive growth through play. The school communicates clearly about learning themes, meals, incidents, and events. In the summer, the staff put together a truly wonderful series of fun events such as splash day, a puppet show performance, and junior Olympics. As a Transitional Kindergarten & Kindergarten teacher, I can attest that CCP is preparing my child well for the years ahead. Even more importantly, they are filling his preschool years with growth, self-confidence, and joy!
