I only waited to enroll my youngest because I was home; otherwise, I would've sent her sooner without hesitation. Miss Minnie, Miss Lupe, and Miss Jackie are truly amazing. They care for and love my children like their own. The environment is always clean, the food is nutritious and tasty, and the kids spend lots of time outside -- which I love. My oldest looks forward to her daily projects and is always proud to show me what she made. The staff go all out for holidays, and the summer water days are a huge hit with both kids. Miss Minnie is also incredibly communicative -- whether it's about illness, developmental tips, or sibling dynamics -- and I always feel like my kids are safe, seen, and supported. My daughters come home happy every day and genuinely love going to school. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a warm, thoughtful, and engaging early education experience.

Before we started seeing Cindy, they were barely talking. In the last seven months, they have gone from saying a few words to talking constantly and showing true engagement with the world around them! In addition, she has helped them develop new gross and fine motor skills, an understanding of imaginary play, and new social and cognitive skills. Our boys absolutely love their time with Miss Cindy! She always makes sure they are comfortable when introducing new activities and skills so they can approach it with a sense of confidence that allows them to be successful. She is a wonderful resource for information related to delays, behavioral modification, and normal parenting issues. We are going to miss her so much when we start preschool this fall! I can't recommend Cindy enough- she is truly amazing!!

The entire experience has been nothing short of fantastic since the first day I ever waved goodbye to my toddler, leaving him in the care and educational guidance of amazing teachers, interns, and classroom helpers/volunteers! On entering and exiting the adorable CDC of MCC you are always welcomed with warm greetings and sent home with generous well-wishes by the woman behind the front-desk, Mark or Linda! (directors of the center) This school, located on the MiraCosta college campus, is a laboratory school meaning that students of the college studying Child Development are allowed to learn from children at play via observation booths or hands-on activities within the various classrooms in the center. Parents, of course, sign a waiver consenting to allowing their child to be observed. I think this aspect of the school is wonderful! It's like educational mutualism: everybody benefits! It's also great because as a parent or relative, you can visit your child's respective classroom observation booth and watch your kiddo in their natural element without them even knowing you're there! Each classroom is comprised of children within the same age range and the ratio between child and teacher is adequate and comforting! Children engage in many different kinds of play and learning every day of the week, in fact, teachers often plan their days based on what they have seen their students finding the most interest in! While the classrooms have routines that they try to follow to create that sense of a schedule for the children, it is never 100% cookie-cutter final: the children too can help drive the direction in which the activities go! The actual classrooms themselves are spacious and feel organic! (I LOVE the use of natural light to brighten the learning space and the fact that the classrooms are not equipped with those cheap, plastic climb on toys you might find at any other preschool-like setting!) Instead the classes are furnished with wooden structures for climbing on, cozy reading areas, play-pretend nooks, various child-sized round tables for a variety of different activities, spots made with specific themes in mind: science, math, writing, nature, ect, a place for group-time/gathering, and a lovely outdoor place space! Don't forget the tiny toilets! I have enjoyed my son going here as much as I believe that he too really enjoys being enrolled at this great preschool! The tuition is quite reasonable! The center offers rates dependent on whether a parent is a MIraCosta student or simply a member of the general population. The lines of communication are always open between families and the staff of the CDC, whether you'd like to speak in person, over the phone, or through email! I love when the center has events that bring children, their families, and the center's staff together. We really make a unique community!

Horrible experience. The first session, my son, who is on the spectrum (but is advanced verbally)…read moreand has ADHD, was forced to sit down with his hands on his knees before we was allowed to explore the room. This put him into an instant panic and he tried to elope out of the center. This was despite calling ahead and sending my reports on my son to them and them assuring me the OT was the right fit. Well, this seemed like an ABA approach to me, which doesn't work with my 2E son. We gave them one more shot and they basically tricked us. The next session was totally different - the person was loving, patient and engaged my son and they connected. Well guess what, we signed up and then they let she quit and we ended up with a brand new OT (very little experience, was still finishing her courses). I was absolutely no progress in our SIX MONTHS here. None. It was mostly BS. Perhaps their specialty is only in kids who need speech therapy, but I definitely don't recommend for sensory or ADHD kids who struggle with self regulation (like mine). To top it off, this past week, we get an email telling us that we are no showing and canceling too much (of each session we've fully paid for without complaint on our end). The ironic part is they send text message reminders for your appointment 24 hours ahead of time, but if you call to cancel upon receiving this reminder, they tell you it's too late (seriously? why send the reminders at all or not send them earlier then). They basically told us WE weren't welcome back. Hysterical. We will find better OTs that are actually equipped to work with neurodivergent children like mine. Run from this place. They have no idea what they're doing and it's a scam.

I don't even know where to begin. Finding IEP With Help -- operated by Diego and Madelyn Sologuren…read moreand Amber Cooper -- was the best decision I've ever made for my twin sons. I reached out desperately needing an advocate after years of frustration, confusion, and getting nowhere with the school district. After just one consultation, they joined me at my sons' IEP meeting the following week, and I was in absolute shock at how much they were able to accomplish after just one meeting. What started with one IEP quickly turned into a series of strategic, intentional meetings, each one bringing us closer to accountability and real solutions. It wasn't overnight, but their consistency and pressure made all the difference. They asked all the right questions, the kind that only an experienced advocate would know to ask. They challenged the district in a way I never could as a parent alone, and they did it respectfully, knowledgeably, and with total confidence in my boys' rights. Watching them work was like watching people who not only knew the law inside and out, but who genuinely cared about my kids as if they were their own. From the very beginning, they walked me through everything step by step. They took the time to explain my sons' IEPs in detail, something no school team has ever done. I finally felt heard, empowered, and most importantly, supported. They made sure my boys got exactly what they were promised under FAPE, and when the district fell short, they didn't back down. Because of them, my sons now have a plan in place that will completely shift the course of their academic progress and self regulation, a direct result of the team's relentless advocacy and dedication. Madelyn spent hours behind the scenes using her investigation skills and due diligence to uncover the district's missteps, while Amber was like a legal encyclopedia, firing back with exact amendments and language without missing a beat. Diego especially... he should seriously become a lawyer. The way he advocated for my family felt like I had my own brother in the room fighting for us. That level of passion, knowledge, and care is rare and it's exactly what every parent of a child with special needs deserves. From now until my boys graduate high school, IEP With Help will be at every IEP meeting. That's a promise I've made to myself and to my kids. I am forever grateful to this team, my heart is full. If you're a parent who's struggling to navigate this system, please don't wait. Call them. They are the real deal.

Diana is AMAZING, and worth every penny. Every week she comes with a new/different activity sometimes she has him dancing to songs about letters or shapes another time they are doing word puzzles. My 3 year old is literally on the road to reading because of her. Very happy she is apart of my kids development, because with her he is learning so much!
