We are so thankful for the care and attention that the owners (Ms. Robin and Ms. Beth) as well as all of the teachers put into the children. We appreciate how Carousel got to know Zoey as an individual. Over the past 3+ years our daughter has thrived at this school. She is confident and happy. As parents, we are extremely happy with the education she has received and confident that she has been very well prepared for her future.

Update to my review from 2022!…read more My daughter is aging out and we are really going to miss Carousel. Once my daughter got started here potty training really took off! (Shoutout to Ms Bit, potty training legend) Kiddo just had a kindergarten assessment and they told me she was so well prepared for school- something I can't take credit for. They put on the sweetest Christmas performance every year too which is so above and beyond for a preschool. Additionally they host optional enrichment classes like dance, gymnastics, basketball- super cool. I think I'm going to put our baby on the waitlist a year early to make sure he gets a spot when he turns 2.

The best part, is that my son is starting to speak more words and sing songs when he is at home. Thank you Kathy, Yesi, and other teachers as well! The school also has a dance class that I enrolled my son in. He loves it and that makes us happy.

My child attended this school for 2 years. May was going to be her last month and that is when I…read morestarted to have issues. At the very beginning of the month my daughter was suspended for behavior even though I believe the teacher mishandled the situation. I decided to pull her from the school since it was her last month and I was told I would be refunded for the tuition I paid for May, nearly $1,200 since she only attended 2 days that month. When my follow up calls weren't actively being ignored I was told by office staff that the director Kris handled financing and would call me back. This went on for months before I gave up on being refunded. Months later I'm still upset with how they handled the situation. They discussed my personal information with my family who also had a child enrolled and even issued her a partial refund when she parted ways early, but not me. I feel disrespected by the situation and because of that I would never recommend this daycare to anyone I know personally.

Both of our children attended Little Scholars and we always had a good experience. Our kids bonded…read morequickly with their teachers and started being happy at drop offs after just a couple days! Our oldest was in Mrs. Olga Nguyen's class instead of attending TK, and she was more than well prepared for kindergarten. She has such a calm, kind, and respectful way of speaking to the children--it's clear she truly understands and values them as individuals. The kids respond so well to her; they listen and engage because she speaks to them in a way that makes them feel seen and heard. She meets them at their level, both emotionally and academically. Special thanks to Ms. Maria, Ms. Sara who have also been shining stars of our experience. All of the teachers we have had for both of our kids have helped to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment.

In retrospect 2 stars was too much. In addition to risking my kids life, he really didn't do much…read moremore than color and play while here. Sure it's cute to see little Christmas concerts, school pictures, and a graduation, but I thought there would be more teaching involved. I'm not sure why this place is called "little scholars." To sum it up, my kid learned more in 2 weeks of ABCmouse than in over 2 years at this daycare. I'm glad I noticed he hadn't learned much and was able to work with him before kindergarten to essentially teach him what he should've been taught at this so called "pre-school."

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Good Shepherd Early Childhood Center. Our son has…read morebeen there for nearly three years and our daughter has been there for the last several months. Good Shepherd truly feels like a community. All of the teachers know all of the kids, parents, and other adults in their lives. The teachers are all approachable and kind and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure all of the unique needs of each child are met in the best way. They are all collaborative with the parents on difficult days and always try and understand the "why" behind big emotions that little ones experience before jumping to time away from the group. The tenure of the teachers is also impressive, with very little turnover in the teachers. You can tell that Miss Jasmin and the team truly care about each other and the success of the school. The class sizes are small and well-staffed, which did not seem to be the case in several other pre-schools we had toured prior to GS, especially at the very reasonable monthly tuition rate and hours of operation. The activities and lessons are endless and always in a rotation to keep little minds from getting bored or overwhelmed. From trunk-or-treating, to in school farmers markets, endless crafts, sensory activities, water days, and more... Both of our kids are always thrilled to tell us about their days during pick up from school. The school feels secure and the staff are diligent in making sure the gate is locked at all times. I love that they regularly practice their safety drills, and our kids talk about how safe they feel at school with confidence. Our four-year-old is wise beyond his years, and we contribute so much of this to GSECC. Our two-year-old has had some delayed development, but she has grown leaps and bounds since starting her preschool journey here. We are so thankful for all that Good Shepherd has done for our family over the years. You will absolutely be making the correct decision in sending your child here.

Our daughter has been here for the past two years and the care they provide is exceptional. The teachers are warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in the kids. It's clear they create an environment where children feel safe, happy, and excited to learn. One thing we especially appreciate is the communication with parents -- they keep us informed and are always thoughtful and responsive. They also put so much effort into planning engaging activities and fun days, both in the classroom and on outings, which makes every week feel special for the kids. Knowing our daughter is in such caring and capable hands gives us so much peace of mind. We truly feel lucky to be part of this community.

I have two kids attending this facility, and I could not be happier about it. The teachers are…read moreamazing- they all focus on play-based learning, and Positive Discipline practices. There is routine, structure, and an overall embracing/welcoming atmosphere. From Center Time to field trips, I feel at ease knowing my children are in such great hands. The classrooms are spacious and orderly, the infant rooms require shoe covers for cleanliness, and there are different play areas outside that are age appropriate for the different age ranges. If kids get a booboo, parents are notified immediately. VCLC also regularly practices safety drills, such as fire & earthquake, etc, which also gives me peace of mind to know they are always prepared. The care and support the staff gives to the little ones is boundless! Communication is constant, via ClassDojo app, where teachers upload pictures of the kiddos doing different activities like crafts, garden time, or fun events such as Firefighters visiting, or Dave the Magician. Infants also get an app called Tadpoles, where they send pictures throughout the day of the babies doing baby stuff. I love this place and my kids do too!
