Both of my daughters have attended this school for preschool. I was extremely nervous at first…read morebecause I hardly let ANYONE watch them and if I do it's at MY house (where we have cameras inside cause I'm crazy protective). This school was placed closed to where I worked and also close to other family in case of emergency which made me wiling to give it a shot. 3 years later, I don't work there anymore however my child still attended for another year even though we moved on the complete opposite side of town because she loved this school so much. I'm so happy I let them take my children for their first few years because they are way OVER prepared for school now. My oldest in first grade now is extremely intelligent and further along than majority of her classmates. She excels at just about everything, and it's the school that did this, not me. I decided to keep her there instead of going to TK so that she could be with her sister one more year and go straight to kindergarten and I'm happy I did. So she skipped TK but was still at the top of her kindergarten class because of this place. My youngest whom just started TK today was again BEYOND prepared and so excited for class. There were SEVERAL students crying, kicking, trying to run out and screaming in the TK classroom at her new school because they were not ever introduced to this type of environment possibly. My daughter walked in confidently, found her name and was able to hang her stuff up by herself and sit down. She even said "I love it here" meanwhile kids were having the worst day of their life. If it weren't for this preschool I know we would have been one of those struggling parents and children as well. If I had not had my older child already in first grade I would have opted to keep my youngest at this preschool instead of TK because of how great my child was doing and how much she loved it. Both children have moved on as of this year now however they wouldn't be as well prepared as they were if it weren't for this awesome school! Sometimes my oldest still tells me things like "I miss the tacos from preschool".... Apparently they make good food for lunch too for the kids and I can't replicate it it's been 2 years come on, my tacos are good too. They also utilize an app that lets you communicate with teachers and they post pictures from their days or fun activities which is such a nice thing to get notified to in the middle of work. Will recommend this school always moving forward!!! They also have the cutest graduations at the end of the year for the oldest kids moving on.

My daughter has been going here a little over a year and Shannon and Kristie are fantastic! They…read moreare caring and create a great atmosphere for the kids. I was looking for reliability and they most definitely provide that. They're hours are 7am to 6pm. They use classroom dojo to communicate with you throughout the day and answer almost immediately if you have concerns and questions. I only gave a four because it makes me nervous that there is not a stronger security system to get inside. You don't enter a code or anything to enter. So just a personal preference and insecurity on my end. Definitely recommend this place to EVERYBODY.

My 2 year old son has been with Kidz for almost a year. All of the staff are amazing with him, and…read morecatch things I hadn't even noticed as a mom (who knew diaper cream had an expiration date!). Their days are structured and the perfect combination of fun and class work. I love that they are screen free and all of the kids enrichment comes from outside play arts and crafts. Communication is the perfect level for a working family. They contact you when needed and immediately for any accidents or injuries but I don't get multiple calls a day like we have with previous childcare. The staff help with potty training as well. We shopped around for close to a year before we decided to sign little man up for Kidz and never looked back. You know your child is happy and thriving as a parent, we are reminded of this every day at drop off and pick up.

Best Childcare & preschool in town. My daughter has been going there for the past 3 years now and…read moreshe loves it there. She is always happy to go there, and she loves her teacher Chanelle who taught my daughter her ABC's and numbers. I totally recommend this childcare & preschool for their kids.

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.

I rarely leave reviews, but families deserve transparency. My family has been with this center for…read moreover three years, and the decline has been noticeable especially following recent corporate changes and inconsistency at that level. This facility markets itself as a "learning center", but it is increasingly operating like a daycare without the consistency and structure you would expect for the cost. Ongoing staffing shortages have created unreliable care, including last minute capacity limits that result in families being turned away. The core issue appears to be how staff are treated and to be clear, this is not a reflection of the on site team, but a corporate level problem. Teachers seem overworked, under supported, and underpaid, which creates an unsustainable environment. This not only impacts the children, but also leads to high staff turnover and a lack of consistency in care. Families are paying premium rates, but the investment in staffing does not reflect that. Until there are meaningful changes at the corporate level to support and retain qualified teachers, I cannot recommend this center.

Reflecting on the six years my child spent at Childtime, I can honestly say we look back on the…read moreexperience with immense satisfaction. Now that we are nearly a year removed from the program, the positive impact on my child's development is even more apparent. The hallmark of our experience was the relationship with the administration. While there were naturally moments over the years where I had concerns or disagreed with a specific situation, I never once felt unheard. The leadership team always prioritized sitting down with me to listen and address my feedback. Even when the solutions weren't exactly what I had envisioned, the transparency and respect they showed ensured that my perspective was always valued. Watching my child flourish in the environment they've cultivated was a joy. My only constructive critique would be the lunch program; while relying on the provided options was occasionally a challenge, and my child sometimes came home hungry. However, the staff was always attentive to this--they provided appealing snacks and allowed as many helpings as needed to ensure no child was left wanting. I would have prefered to be able to provide a home made lunch that respected the no-peanut policy. I am grateful for the care, the communication, and the community Childtime provided our family for over half a decade.

Many of the staff members from when my children went to OCS are still there or have retired. We always recommend this school to friends and family. Many of our friend's children have attended. I feel that it's small enough for one on one interaction but big enough that it's not just some daycare. Definitely check them out if you're looking for preschool options. Very nice, trustworthy, and love the kids. Thank you OCS.

She really spends time and gets every child ready and prepared for Kinder. Just like his sister, he has never disliked going to school. Because all learning is done through play, he enjoys all the projects and schoolwork. Hes proud to show us everything he does. She still maintains an open door policy for all guardians. She has never made myself, husband or my in laws feel unwelcome for coming for a visit or attending one of the many holiday parties. Just like with his sister, she helped, encouraged and supported us through potty training. They never leave the little ones in soiled diapers or clothing. If parents forget to bring a change of clothing she always has spares on hand to help in a pinch. Ms Billda has still maintained an affordable status for parents looking for early education for their little ones. When it was time for my son to start preschool I knew I didnt need to look anywhere else! It was a no brainer. You get more bang for your buck at Academics Plus. Im done having kids but I will always advocate for small businesses that care about those in the community. I hope Ms. Billda continues to thrive in all business aspects.

We are one of the founding families of Little Angels (circa Fall 2025). We have had children in…read moremany different childcare settings throughout Modesto since 2018 and there is no question that nothing compares, quality wise. Starting with the staff, the first thing you will notice is that every teacher embodies love and compassion, and respect for kids. Each person is nurturing, kind, and truly enjoys being around each child. As far as programming the focus is play based plus structured activities with a ton of hands on art and outdoor time. Letters and numbers are also practiced frequently. They just completed a gardening unit that was a big hit. One favorite activity is dance parties for the littles and there are no screens! This is rare. Little Angels emphasize multicultural, inclusive, non-religious, multi lingual learning. And they provide all meals and snacks, wholesome and fun vegetarian foods. The building is bright, open, and non-cluttered, with separate classrooms for the babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers. However they all interact on a daily basis and class sizes have very low teacher:student ratio. Ms. Bhavya goes out of her way to make each child feel welcome, included, and seen. Moreover she wants to really understand and support each child's unique needs and brains. She is intentional in how she individually onboards children and makes sure they feel safe. Another thing we appreciate is that they host small get togethers for the families to interact and enjoy holidays together. Last month we had our first field trip to the Modesto Children's Museum too; such a treat. I recommend this program wholeheartedly- it truly is Modesto's best kept childcare secret
