Before our move to Santa Rosa, finding a preschool for my son was a priority. My son had a…read morechallenging time adjusting to preschool at his previous school after being in home daycare. I wanted to make sure I found a place that was a good fit for him after so much change. We're so fortunate to have found Storybook. Miss Nicole, Miss Amanda, and Miss Monica are amazing. They truly take the time to know each child and it appears to me that they really nurture the unique personalities of each one. My son is so happy to go to school. He talks about all the things they do and he is flourishing in their care. Knowing that my son is thriving eases my Mama heart and that's all I can hope for in this world.

We came to this school during a very challenging time in our lives. They welcomed us with open arms…read moreand embraced us, and for that, I am truly grateful. Navigating those challenges and hardships, my child's teachers went above and beyond. They were open, compassionate, and, most of all, patient. The growth we experienced here will never be forgotten. They never gave up on us and stayed with us every step of the way. The campus is beautiful, and the classrooms are wonderful. I felt very safe having my child here. It truly became another home for us, and we will miss everyone greatly.

My son started at Santa Rosa Montessori School shortly after his second birthday, and it has been…read moresuch an amazing experience for our whole family. His communication and his confidence blossomed almost immediately. For months, he was the youngest in the school and it was so sweet to see how all the older kids looked out for him. He carries the skills he learns at school with him and incorporates them at home. The teachers are amazing and build genuine connections with the kids. The campus is a beautiful, calming environment perfect for learning and playing. The community is welcoming and encourages parent involvement. Best of all, my son loves his school and is always happy to be there!

Michelle is the best caregiver any parent could hope for. Our son has been with Michelle for almost…read moretwo years now, and we couldn't be happier with her. - Michelle genuinely loves and cares for the kids. - Her program is fantastic! Our son brings home projects every day. They explore and learn through music, dancing, art, books, walks, and so much more. They even raise real butterflies and release them outside. My 2-year-old knows more about metamorphosis and chrysalises than I ever did. - Michelle is licensed for more children but chooses to care for only three at a time. This allows each child to receive exceptional attention and care. Smaller group also means significantly fewer sicknesses for kids. We have friends in bigger daycares and their kids seem to be constantly sick. Michelle is very diligent with cleaning and health issues and our son has been sick only a handful of times in 2 years. - Michelle has also been an amazing partner for us as parents. She helped us navigate so many milestones. Potty training was incredibly easy because of her! We trained at home for one weekend, and then she took over at daycare - and our son was potty trained. Our family feels incredibly fortunate to be part of Michelle's program. We truly cannot recommend her highly enough.

She has created an amazing environment for babies and toddlers to learn, grow, and play. We knew our daughter was always safe and well cared for when she was with Michelle, and even more - it was evident that Michelle cares very deeply for all the children she watches. Our daughter learned so much while with Michelle and she helped guide us through so many pivotal developmental milestones. It was important to me that we felt like she was getting individualized care and that was very much the case with Michelle. She is licensed to care for more children but only takes three at a time meaning each child gets so much love and attention. We are so appreciative and thankful for the time we had with her!

Mixed Greens is a fantastic preschool. The director Heather is one of those impressive people that…read morenot only creates the best environment a child could have the pleasure of existing in while at school, but she is also able to communicate and empathize with parents (no small feat). The 12 child / 4 teacher setup at the Hoen campus is pretty special, especially during Covid times. We made the decision to send our 4 year old back to school despite the risks of the virus, it was initially a hard choice to make, but knowing the numbers and the care that the school is taking to keep all the kids healthy. Heather has been incredibly thorough in not only creating a medically advised Covid protocol, she has also sent emails out answering all the questions parents have sent in, AND kept herself available to field others via email and phone. She has been just as careful in handling the air quality issues we have been dealing with (2020, you can just cool it now). I am blown away at the amount of time she spends communicating with parents about what's going on, what to expect, and how their kids are doing on a daily basis. Our son loves the school and feels very at ease there. After his first day when I was picking him up he was sad to leave and said, "Mama, can I come back here?" At his previous preschool he was always sad getting dropped off in the morning and it was brutal, so this was music to my ears. Then that same night as he was drifting off to sleep he said, "Mama, I love my new school." Totally unprompted on both accounts! We had looked at Mixed Greens online when he was just a baby, but never got around to going to an open house, and we missed the window to get him on the list. By a few strokes of luck we finally got a spot now that he's four, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have it. I know Mixed Greens (both campuses) on average has a two year waiting list, so don't dilly dally, go to an open house and get your kid in the list!!

The teachers have an impressive amount of child development experience while also having incredible personal skills. Our daughter loves going to school and we love seeing her grow in the environment! The owner/operator, Heather, is on her game. It is obvious as soon as you meet her that this is her life's work. The school runs more professionally than most schools I've seen. The school embodies Heather's vision that children learn through play, art, gardening, and music. Experts agree that early education has the most impact on a child's life when the days are filled with ample opportunities for young children to use and hear complex, interactive language; the curriculum supports a wide range of school-readiness goals that include social and emotional skills and active learning; the school encourages meaningful family involvement; and they have knowledgeable and well-qualified teachers. This is basically a description of Mixed Greens! Therefore, we are very thankful to be a part of the Mixed Greens family!

Through hands-on exploration, storytelling, building, art, and imaginative play, they develop important life skills—confidence, creativity, problem-solving, communication, and teamwork. Our nurturing teachers guide each child’s natural curiosity, encouraging them to ask questions, try new ideas, and discover the world around them. Every day feels like an adventure filled with joy, friendships, and meaningful learning experiences. By blending play with purposeful learning, we create a foundation that prepares children not only for school, but for a lifetime of curiosity and success.

My daughter can't wait for her turn to attend. The teachers are wonderful. They are caring & experienced. My son's teachers Ms. Julie, Ms. Nancy, Ms. Vicki, and Ms. Ally are the best of the best. They really love the children and it shows in how happy all of the children are. My son development has flourished here. Besides the usual educational developments like numbers, letters, motor skills, he's learned how to take care of his basic needs, be more independent and interact in a group of children. I love that the school uses the play based learning method & also gives the children ample outdoor playtime. The grounds are beautiful. It's like being in the country with big tree, gardens, and fresh air. BCNS is a great community where the teachers, parents, and children all become friends. They also have a wonderful summer camp program.

The staff genuinely care about the children and go above and beyond to make sure every child feels safe, happy, supported and encouraged to learn. It's clear that they put a great deal of thought and heart into creating a positive experience for every child. Over the past year, we have watched our grandson grow in so many ways- socially and academically. He has developed friendships and confidence. Little Angels is truly a special place. We are incredibly grateful to the entire staff for the love, dedication, and professionalism they show every day to every child.

When we were searching for daycare/preschool for our then 2-year-old, who needed stimulation than…read morewe or a nanny could provide, our priorities were cleanliness, a large outdoor area, and, most importantly, warm and caring teachers. Little Wildflowers exceeded our expectations. And their awareness of how parents feel entrusting their children to someone else was beyond what I had expected. Our son was in a phase of 'stranger danger' when we first met Ms. Maria, but he felt immediately comfortable with her, which was a sign for us. Initially, we wanted to start with just a few days a week and gradually increase, but thanks to the integration period at LWF, within a few weeks he was happily attending full days and loving it. Both Evelyn and Maria work incredibly hard and are true professionals. There have been weekends when my son wanted to go to LWF. Statements directly from my little one: Me: How was your day at school? LO: It was great, just great! Me: Do you like going to school? LO: Yes, I do! Me: What do you like about it? LO: I like my teachers and friends. He always comes home happy, and we are so thankful for LWF. They even helped potty train our son, something I expected to be much more challenging, but like everything else, Evelyn and Maria made that transition relatively effortless.

During a day and age where many of us just don't know what to believe - the best we can do no…read morematter our belief, is to keep ourselves and loved ones safe. Better to be safe than sorry right? Little Wildflowers Preschool has instilled this idea deep into their moral fiber so that you - the parent will know without a doubt that they are always doing everything in their power to keep your children and family safe. Safe from viruses, predators and/or all dangers alike. This private preschool is female owned and operated by two highly experienced individuals with over 10 years experience. They will give your children the highest level of education, care and LOVE while keeping their program fun and exciting for their developing minds. With a HUUUUUUUGGGEEE backyard for outdoor fun, exploration and exercise your kids will get the perfect balance of indoor/outdoor time. Anyone who is in process of looking for a preschool for your children I leave you with this advise. Read their school policies. Read about their covid policies. Ask them questions about these policies and their program and if you agree with it all then send your kids here - you wont regret it! On the other hand if you don't agree with any single policy at all, find a place that fits your views better because there is no leniency here for any parent who thinks they will come and challenge the school. Thank you Maria and Evelyn for building a safe and protected environment for the children!
