They always work with our family as a team to ensure our son gets the best out of the school. The school has a family feeling, we always know that our son is well looked after and we can communicate with the school and teacher anytime. I wish the Stratford family a fantastic holiday and new year. Parisa Pereira read more

I appreciate Mrs Amreen Hashmi for her caring and support. My kid is difficult, Mrs Amreen is being patient to her and going above and beyond to spend extra time to support her. She understands how important 4th grade is, as it marks the beginning of preparation for the transition to middle school, not just academically, but also in terms of social and emotional development, behavior, and growing independence. Appreciate her support this year. Thanks Mrs Amreen~ read more

I enrolled my child in the early preschool program here, and I couldn't be happier with that decision. At first, I was hesitant about starting her preschool so early, but it has truly been one of the best choices for our family. We decided to enroll her in the half day program which is 8-11:45. The teachers are wonderful, and I'd especially like to thank Ms. Neeraja for going above and beyond for every child in her class. The variety of activities they offer each day is impressive and really helps keep the kids engaged and mentally stimulated. I also love how warm and welcoming the entire staff is--everyone treats each other like family, and the children are loved and well cared for. This is a fantastic school for kids ages 2 and up, and I highly recommend it! read more

We enrolled our son in the early preschool program this year, and we couldn't be happier with the experience so fat. The transition from day care into school life was something we were initially nervous about, but Ms Neeraja, Ms Samantha and Ms Alicia have been incredibly supportive, patient and attentive every step of the way. They truly took the time to get to know our child and made sure he felt comfortable and cared for. We have seen real progress in his communication, social interaction and overall confidence since starting the program. It's clear that all the lovely teachers genuinely care about the kids and take pride in what they do. We are so thankful to have found a place where our son is not only learning but thriving. Highly recommend Stratford to any parent looking for a nurturing early education environment! read more

We are happy to attend the Early Preschool program at Stratford - Pleasanton. As a newer offering, it makes the transition from family care to a school setting seamless and supportive--especially for younger children who aren't yet potty trained. The Early Preschool brings a nice balance between nurturing care and early education. It follows the same curriculum design and daily schedule structure as the rest of the school, allowing our little one immerse in consistent, age-appropriate routines, learning goals, and social development, and recognize themselves as part of a big school family. Ms. Neera, Ms. Alicia, Ms. Samantha and extended care teachers bring so much love and professionalism to the classroom, and their positive energy is truly contagious. It's been amazing to watch our child building friendships, showing more independence, and coming home sharing new songs and knowledge. read more

We have been Stratford Pleasanton parents for the past 8yrs. And yet we are so happy to have our little join this campus. Ms. Amutha (affectionately known as Ms. Amu) is an exceptional preschool teacher at Stratford Pleasanton campus. We've witnessed our 3-year-old thrive under her guidance. Her patience, kindness, and creativity create a nurturing environment for the kids. Ms Amu always takes time to connect with each child and makes them feel at ease. We're incredibly fortunate to have Ms. Amu as our son's teacher. Her influence has been profound! read more

We've had a wonderful experience at Stratford School, especially with my son in Ms. Amutha's class. From day one, he absolutely loved her -- and according to him, " Ms. Amutha is the best teacher ever! I love her to the moon and back. She always takes care of me!"and it shows in how happy and confident he feels every day. He also adores Ms. Noushin from the next room. She always greets him with warmth and kindness, and it means so much to him (and to us) to feel so supported by multiple teachers at the school. The school leaders are equally amazing -- always warm, welcoming, and attentive to the children. We feel truly grateful to be part of such a nurturing and positive community. Thank you to everyone at Stratford for creating a place where our son feels loved, safe, and excited to learn! read more

He loves being busy and loves all the activities which are fun but engaging, circle time, Mandarin, science, story time etc. It's such a joy to see him excited about learning and eager to share what he's experienced. We also deeply appreciate the photos and videos shared by the teachers. They give us a window into his day, help us connect with his experiences, and support his smooth transition.

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Ms Vijaya as our toddler's main teacher this year. From the very beginning, she created a warm, nurturing, and safe environment that helped our child thrive both emotionally and academically. She has an amazing way of connecting with the kids--our toddler would come home every day talking about circle time, story sessions, and fun art projects. It's clear she genuinely cares about each child's development and always goes the extra mile to keep parents informed and involved. We've seen so much growth in our toddler's language, confidence, and social skills.

Our kids love Stratford School. The staff is very welcoming, greeting each child by name every day. Ms. Noushin in Room 3 has been a wonderful preK teacher. Our kids love her. She is very caring and makes learning so much fun. She communicates very well through the monthly newsletter and shares a lot of daily pictures though Procare. She also gives updates at the end of the day during pickup if there were any notable things, such as if lunch was a hit or not. We have been so blessed to have Ms. Noushin as a teacher this year. Other teachers to note are Ms. Farah (preK), Mrs. Powell (K), Mrs. Narendra (K), and Mrs. Cavanas (1st). They have all instilled a love for school and learning in our older child. When she sees them in the hallways, she happily runs to greet them. They are also happy to hear any updates on her progress in school. Overall, we are very happy with our experiences at Stratford School and look forward to many more in the upcoming years. read more

From the very beginning, she has shown a genuine warmth, kindness, and care that made our son feel safe, valued, and excited to learn.

Ms. Amutha has a natural ability to connect with young children and create a classroom environment that is both joyful and structured.

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Stratford the past couple years. We have been very happy with the progress that we have seen in our daughter socially and academically. I have been impressed with their advanced curriculum as well as their emphasis on the arts. I love that they do winter and spring shows. it is fantastic to see the children up on stage and reciting their lines. This is great for getting used to public speaking and building up their confidence. I also appreciate their exposure to historic fine artist at such a young age. We have truly been blessed with THE BEST teachers. Mrs. Farah from Pre-K was a delight with such a welcoming demeanor. Her joy and love for the kids was so evident. For Kindergarten we were fortunate enough to have Mrs. Powell and Mrs. Chakraborty. They made learning so fun and we saw incredible results. Both very much loved by the children. So much warmth and laughter filled the room. They are missed and will be a hard act to follow. Another important thing for us is communication. From day one it has been exceptional. We were consistently updated on the goings on in the classroom and with any areas of concern. The teachers were also very responsive. The few concerns that we had were addressed immediately. The open lines of communication and transparency were greatly appreciated. My daughter left Kindergarten completely ready for 1st grade, mastering all the basics and then some but most importantly with so much more confidence. THANK YOU STRATFORD!! read more

I highly recommend Stratford Pleasanton and Ms. Vijaya K. read more

Great education for kids. Involves parents and grandparents. They even had grandparents day which was a potluck party during which time we had the opportunity to visit our children in their classes. My daughter's class happened to be outside doing physical education. I was very impressed to see the exercises they were all doing as a group following the instructor. They even invite parents to come and read books and do activities with the kids, which is great because it brings in some outside perspective. Love the involvement of the parents with the school. read more

I have to write this for Ms. Noushin as we are truly grateful for being an exceptionally skillful teacher and an amazing person. When my 4-year-old son started Pre-K at Stratford School, we were initially a bit nervous and unsure. However, Ms. Noushin's warmth and kindness immediately put us at ease. She welcomed him so lovingly that he fell in love with school from day one and eagerly looked forward to going back every single day. We couldn't be happier with our experience in room 3! Ms. Noushin has a remarkable gift for making learning fun, engaging, and meaningful from creative activities to nurturing emotional growth which creates an environment where every child feels valued and excited to come to school each day. Ms. Noushin's patience, kindness, and enthusiasm for teaching are truly inspiring.

Thank you for going above and beyond to provide such a positive and meaningful start to our son's education. You are truly a gem, and we sincerely hope he has the opportunity to be in your class again next year in kindergarten! read more

Our younger kid has been attending Stratford for two years now, and she's loving it. She often comes home talking about the things she's learned at school, and her progress has been constantly surprising us! The teachers are very welcoming and accommodating, including those during extended care hours. After this summer, our daughter will go on as a first grader (yay!) and she still talks about her teachers during her first year at Stratford! Twice a year, the kids also get to take on stage. It brings us so much joy watching our daughter perform - it's quite amazing to see these little kids memorize so many songs and dance moves, with no fear of the stage! Thank you, Ms. Narendra, Ms. Sheth, Ms. Noushin, Ms. Heather, and Ms. Moumita (I might be spelling her name wrong but she's the best extended care teacher!), as well as all the other Stratford staff for being so kind to the little kids! Given the fabulous experience our daughter has had, we have also decided to start sending our older one to the Pleasanton campus starting this fall. Ms. Amina and Ms. Ambika from the Admission office have made everything so easy. They are always prompt and thorough in responding to our emails (lots of questions from us), and Ms. Ambika put our son at ease when he first went in to take the placement test. We can't wait for him to start his learning journey at Stratford, together with his little sister. Thank you for creating such a positive learning environment and giving us parents peace of mind while we go to work. read more

My daughter has been attending Stratford Pleasanton since August 2024. We were initially concerned about her transition from a home-based daycare to a formal school environment, but Ms. Noushin made the process seamless. Within just two months, Isha not only adapted to the new setup but also began looking forward to school every day. Ms. Noushin has become a household name for us, as Isha frequently shares stories about her experiences at school, her friends, and Ms. Noushin. The teachers at Stratford are warm, kind, and affectionate towards every child. As a working mother, I feel assured knowing my daughter is safe and happy while I'm at work. The dedication and relentless efforts of the teachers, especially Ms. Noushin, are truly commendable. We are delighted with Isha's academic progress and can see her gradual development. Ms. Noushin's teaching techniques make learning enjoyable for the little ones, and her understanding and care for children are unmatched. I can't thank her enough for always being there for us. The school also provides healthy and varied snack options, which we greatly appreciate. A heartfelt thank you to all the teachers and staff at Stratford for taking such wonderful care of our daughter read more

We are very grateful to Stratford school and specially to Ms.Amutha. Ms.Amutha consistently creates a warm and nurturing environment where our son felt safe and supported. She is incredibly patient and understanding, always taking the time to address individual needs and concerns. She is an excellent communicator, keeping parents informed and involved in their child's learning. Her creative lesson plans and engaging activities make learning fun and enjoyable for all the children. She has a genuine passion for early childhood education and is dedicated to helping each child reach their full potential. As we step into the next academic year, our son will miss his teacher so much. We wish she teaches him next year as well. read more

Our son enjoyed another wonderful year at Stratford School. Ms. Arifa is an amazing teacher who has played a crucial role in boosting our son's confidence and supporting his learning and development throughout this academic year in pre-K. She is deeply committed and genuinely cares for every student in the class. She perfectly balances the overall development of the children, effectively driving their progress in curriculum/skills, allowing them to discover themselves while maintaining discipline, and creating a positive, inclusive, and nurturing classroom environment. In his own words, our 4-year-old son thanked Ms. Arifa for "loving all the kids, being fair to everyone, and praising him all the time." Her approach of encouraging the children and reinforcing trust in them makes them feel valued, inculcates good behaviors, and also holds them accountable. Ms. Arifa is always approachable and very welcoming, creating a positive environment not just for the children but also for the parents. She proactively shares specific updates about the child during pickup & drop-off with the parents. She takes excellent ownership of each student, makes them feel loved, and is a very professional and effective teacher. We are so grateful to have had Ms. Arifa as his teacher this year and couldn't have asked for anything more. Ms. Amy, who joined a few months ago, is also a very good teacher. She connects well with the children and creates a fun learning environment. She encourages them to do the right thing, progresses them academically & instills discipline. Her weekly updates on the progress on the curriculum through the communication app are quite helpful for the parents. The class teachers at Stratford work together as a team, understand the child, and incorporate any specific preferences shared by the parents. Ms. Amina, the preschool principal, is a dedicated & effective leader. She knows each child personally and regularly spends time in the classrooms, ensuring smooth operations and a caring environment. The school leadership is very approachable and puts in a lot of effort to come up with engaging extracurricular activities for the students, building a top-notch program for well-rounded child development and fostering a well-connected parent community. read more

I am writing this message mainly for the primary teacher Ms.Neera in room 9. I can't express how happy I am with my little one being in her class. She is so loving, caring, warm and responsible teacher. The transition was not easy for my daughter separating from me and she was there for us every step of the way making sure my daughter is well taken care of everyday. She is so polite and very good communication with parents and she cares if your little one even naps or eats her food. This is the first year they are having the early preschool program and they couldn't pick a better teacher for this class. read more

This is our first year being part of the Stratford family and we couldn't be happier. Our kids are thriving with the advanced curriculum and attention they are receiving at Stratford from not only their teachers but the entire faculty. I can't speak highly enough about the Kindergarten teachers especially Mrs. Srikanth and Mrs. Vadrevu. They are communicative, endearing, they love our kids and are quite funny too! We look forward to many more years being part of this family. read more

Updated review, still 5 stars! My younger child is now a part of the Stratford family, in the Early preschool with Ms. Neera, Ms. Alicia, Ms. Samantha and Ms. Pallavi. I cannot thank these teachers enough for taking care of my little one. They are wonderful and my kiddo loves to be in their class. They teach, they care, they communicate with parents, and they just bond with the children so naturally. Our transition from another Early Preschool to here was seamless! We are blessed to be here with such amazing teachers. If your child is anywhere else, then now is the time to move to Stratford Pleasanton. You will see the difference in care and difference in learning from other schools/day cares! read more

Good activities that were engaging to ensure educational goals were met for the kids.

Writing this review for Ms Noushin, class teacher for room 3 !! I was very skeptical and scared to move my daughter to a new preschool because she is a covid child, her transition to stratford was so smooth and easy !! Ms Noushin is very organized and very communicative and i look forward to her daily updates. Stratford overall is a great school and love everyone who makes this a safe space for our kids to grow and learn read more

I was employed with Stratford School of Pleasanton for 8 years. It was a great experiences for me. I will cherish all my fond memories with the children, families and co-workers. I learned many wonderful skills from everyone which I was associated with at the school and corporation. read more

My daughter attended Stratford for the 2024 summer program both session in the Pre K class. We love the everyday activities and weekly theme. I am not sure if there is another program that may possibly have more than Stratford program. Everyday music time and daily activities schedule I really recommend. My daughter attended both summer sessions, each session 5 weeks total. Minus one star for two reasons. First, I was not aware that for the summer session, there would be a new teacher every 2 weeks. I learned that once we started the program. I really prefer one teacher for the session for various reasons. Two weeks just doesn't give enough time for child to know teacher and vice versa. How do you know how much the child is progressing. I did bring this up to the head of school, the response I got was, they do the 2 weeks rotation so teachers can get a break. I understand that but if that's the case, it should be mentioned to parents before registration. It might just change my mind overall though. Second reason for the minus one star, I registered my daughter way back in January before summer session even started. The office staff was really nice with helping me out and also giving me a tour. I felt I was misled by one office staff in particularly about how full their summer waitlist. (We were also in the market to buy a home and wasn't sure if we should register for one or two session) I ended up registering early for both summer sessions. Well let me tell you, there is no wait list. There were still plenty of open spots. We ended buying a home outside of the area before summer session 1 ended and Stratford could not accommodate to our move. No refunds even if I provided proof of relocation. No exceptions. So just beware and don't feel pressure to register for more sessions if you are not sure. I wish they were more transparent and truthful about the waitlist. And also more accommodating to these situations. read more

Our family has a long-standing connection to Stratford School in Pleasanton. Our older son Ryan spent four happy years there. Last year we visited the school again while looking for a school for our younger son Kyle's kindergarten. We were very happy to see that Mr. Figueroa is back at the school in charge. The campus was very neat and organized, just like how it was 10 years ago. Clearly, Mr. Figueroa runs a tight ship. We were somewhat surprised to see the tuition is significantly lower than other comparable schools. We enrolled Kyle in Stratford with no hesitation. One of the standout features of Stratford is the joyful atmosphere it fosters. My younger son eagerly looks forward to going to school every day, and that speaks volumes about the positive and nurturing environment created by the dedicated teachers and staff. We feel the homework load is optimal: it's more rigorous than public schools but does not feel overly burdensome. Communication between the school and parents is a strong suit. We trust Kyle's two teachers, Mrs. Srikanth and Mrs. Vadrevu very much. They consistently keep us informed about our child's progress, achievements, and any areas that may need attention. This open line of communication is invaluable and helps us feel connected to our child's educational journey. In summary, our family, particularly Kyle, has been exceptionally happy with our experience at this school. It has consistently delivered on its promise of providing a high-quality education within a supportive and caring community. We wholeheartedly recommend this school to any parent seeking a nurturing environment where their child can thrive academically and personally. read more

This is our son's first year at Stratford and he is currently in kindergarten. His teachers Mrs. Srikanth and Mrs. Vadrevu have both been doing an amazing job! Our son is retaining the information he learns in school and is able to repeat what he learned when telling us about his day. We have seen a big change in how he is developing. They definitely make it exciting to go to school because he is able to go to school with a smile and leave with the same smile he entered with. Mrs. Srikanth and Mrs. Vadrevu are very informative when it comes to letting the parents know what is going on throughout the week and month. We always know what our son is learning week over week and know what to prepare for well in advance so everyone can prepare and succeed. If we ever have any questions, they are also very responsive and never leave us in limbo. There has never been a time where we have reached out and had to follow up because we were waiting on a response. Very professional! We are truly happy to be at Stratford and our son is lucky to have these two as his teachers. read more

5 Star Rating for Stratford - Pleasanton Campus in Education, Extra Curricular activities and Overall in each departments, be it, Science, Music, Arts, Spanish Classes. All the teachers are great & have focus on child's growth & well being. A great execution of ideas always comes from leadership ( Ms. Amina & Mr. Sanny), who pays extra attention to every aspect of schools day to day activities and well planned events. We have been fortunate to attend both of our 3 year old performing on Winter events in front of the MPR full of 50+ people and the kind of confidence the kids shows, conveys the effort the teacher put in to get them ready. I am highly appreciative of teachers who has been part of this journey. From Ms. Radha, Ms. Engy to Ms. Vijaya & DaShaire, these Room # 7 teachers has been party of early age for our 2 daughter.

My daughter is currently attending the Pre-School at Stratford Pleasanton Campus and have only great things to say about my experience. The teachers Ms. Vijayalaxmi and Ms. Da'Sharie are amazing, the curriculum is second to none and each child is treated with care. My daughter absolutely loves the school and the staff. Her teachers are a great encouragement and and the academic program is great. Her class teachers Ms. Vijayalaxmi, Ms. Da'Sharie and Ms. Chitra are passionate about seeing their students succeed.

Overall, great team and great school and highly recommend this school !! read more

Our little one started at Stratford, Pleasanton a year ago with the preschool program (Ms. Vijaya's class) and we are really happy about the school and it's curriculum. The curriculum is well thought out, structured and delivered in a manner that makes it accessible for kids this young as well to appreciate complex concepts. The class teachers Ms. Vijaya & Ms. Neeraja organize and execute the class activities really well and lovingly guide kids. Their effort shows up in the pictures/videos shared throughout the day, through worksheets and kids enthusiasm each and every day. The school is doing a great job in introducing a variety of science concepts and Spanish language. Ms. Jacqueline who is the science teacher uses innovative and practical ways to present topics to kids (ranging from planets to habitats to electricity), and Ms. Angel who is the Spanish teacher uses a lot of songs to introduce the language which seems to be working well for my child. The school's leadership regularly shares their vision and thoughts through programs and newsletters, and organizes plenty of thoughtful events for parents and kids to take part. Overall we are extremely happy with this school and highly recommend it. read more

Our Kindergartener thoroughly enjoyed his first year in "real" Elementary School at Stratford, under the guidance of Mrs. Powell and Mrs. Chakraborty, both of whom took exceptionally good care of our son. We have been extremely pleased with Stratford School and would recommend it to anyone who cherishes their child's growth and development, because you're unlikely to find a more thoughtful and conscientious staff anywhere. read more
