    Our daughters started here when they turned 2. There is a separate classroom for 2 year olds and…read morethere are other classrooms for 3-5 year olds. We had nothing but good experiences here and highly recommend it. The teachers are very patient with the children, older children help younger children settle into routines, and the school even helps with potty training when the time comes. When our daughter started Kindergarten at the local elementary school, we found she was far beyond her classmates in math. This school prepared her well. Your child will take time to settle into the new environment. It took my oldest nearly six weeks. The school will work with you, so be patient and don't blame the school if your child isn't ready.

    Let me save you the headache! This place is a freakinnn' mess…read more After essentially being pushed out just two days in, I was told I'd get a full refund, minus the two days my son was "in school", yeah.. ok. What I got instead was several weeks of back and fourth emails, and a check that was finally recieved via snail mail aka USPS. I thought: "FINALLY", cause... hey, we're talking a little over $1,800. I go to deposit it and lo and behold.. IT'S NOT SIGNED. Yes, seriously, they sent me an unsigned check. From there, I went back to the email thread, going back and forth a million times with accounting and random people who never introduced themselves. An aggressive email from a random staff member named Patricia, who never introduced herself or her role in the whole situation. I didn't receive any phone calls, no apology, no accountability. Weeks go by, and I don't receive another check, so I filed a dispute with my bank after attempting to resolve this for over a month. Guess what? I finally heard back from accounting. They tried to get me to cancel my dispute so that they could issue a check again. I said nope! Thankfully, a week or so later, my bank was able to refund me the entire amount after literally faxing them our email thread and the unsigned check. Please do not bring yourself or your children here. The staff here is unprofessional and incompetent and needs to brush up on their customer service. Avoid. At. All. Costs.

They do lots of activities for babies i was very surprised tge did painting hand prints foot painting with my baby. I like how they are very organized as well i never have anything missing from her bag. And when they change my 10 month old i noticed one day the teachers will wash her hands i was suprised at that they are very clean. I never even thought to wash my infants hands but ever since i seen themdo it i have continued. My 10 month old claps her hands. I like how the teachers document everythingabout my baby from six months to now everyday i can look back at what she did, learned and, and ate down to how long her naps were. My 3 year old loves it there as well. She always has to tell mrs. Domson goodbye when i pick her up. Also she has her favorite teachers as well. My 3 year old now knows a few prayers she actually started a tradition everytime we eat we pray i like that its something new she picked up from the school and she has implementedit in my house. Also she has me read her a book everynight. I like how the teachers are very interactive with the children. By far one of the best pre school in modesto. They will also call you if they hace questions or concerbs about your child instead of going off what they think is best to do. I like how they keep me invilved with my children when im at work keeps me at ease.

I just think management needs to improve. They need to pay their teachers more and treat them with respect. They're spread so thin.

    I really debated whether or not to write this review, as it is just my experience, however it may…read morehelp someone who is considering to enroll their child. I researched a handful of preschools in Modesto to enroll my 4 year old. I wanted structure and some curriculum taught and not just a full day of playtime. What I liked most about Magnolia was is wasn't on a main road with fast traffic, the play yard was on the backside of the school and they had a structured day. My daughter was over the moon excited to start school so I was happy they had room for us to enroll. I decided on 3 days a week so she wasn't overwhelmed but after her first week things changed quickly. She was anxious to go to school, she would throw full tantrums in the morning to get ready, she was regressing on her potty training and having multiple accidents at school. Complete opposite of her normal behavior. At first, I expected this, it's a new routine, there's a period of adjustment and many kids experience it. By the end of week 3, I was having serious mom guilt. She had completely broke down one morning when we pulled into the parking lot. It was like sheer fear had overcome her and she begged me not to leave her and to take her home. I spoke with her teachers and the Director and although they said she was doing fine, I wasn't convinced. The Director of the preschool is quite young and I tried not let that cloud my judgement of her ability to run the school, however it was what she said when I brought up my daughter's behavior that made me realize this was not going to work... I expressed to her my concerns and that my daughter would say the kids were mean. She said that she had not witnessed any mean treatment but does encourage the kids to tell the teachers if that comes up. She then went on to say that many of the kids there had been enrolled for a while and had become friends and tend to have their little cliques. Cliques at 3 and 4 years old?? No. This did not sit well with me and I was surprised that she not only knew of this behavior among the kids but that it was accepted and no one was trying to encourage these kids to play together and make friends with everyone. I'll say it again, 3 and 4 years old! Needless to say, I pulled my daughter out that day and we didn't return. That is not the kind of community or culture I want my daughter in. We do not do "Mean Girls" at 4 years old and I'm not raising my daughter to dismiss new people, or encourage her to make anyone feel out of place and preschool was the last place I expected her to experience that.

She paid close attention to him. She performed an incredible job with him; in fact, he had no problems at all with his transition to kindergarten. The kind of unconditional love and care she showed him, as if he were her own kid, is something no mother could ever hope for.

    Lorena is reliable, patient, kind and loving to my son. She was the caretaker for my son from 6…read moremonths through 2 years old. She provided encouragement and instilled confidence in him during huge transitional and key milestone early years. Most recently, Lorena became a virtual teacher to my son, who is now 4. We pulled him out of preschool due to the pandemic. During the virtual sessions, she has taught him the alphabet, counting numbers 1-20 and most importantly kept him engaged with games, such as bingo using the alphabets or Pictionary drawing out things and having my son guess. It truly shows how much effort she puts into each session to keep my son entertained and learning. Not an easy task! Consider yourself lucky to have Lorena be the caretaker to your child(ren) because her priorities are to keep your child happy, engaged and continuing to thrive. Lorena has become family, and I hope you get the pleasure of having the same experience we have with her.
