When I called I was told they only have a "tour season" what ever that means. Which I would think would be right about now for the Aug 2017 school year but apparently this "tour season" it's already over and tours are not given at this time. Instead I was instructed to go on the their website to get all the info I needed and fill out an application to be put on a waiting list. Hmmmmm, waiting list for a tour? I'm not even sure I want my child to go here as of yet. Why would I want to be put on a waiting list for school I wasn't even allowed to see?? Kinda of hash stance to take for a school who only has a 3 star rating. Any case, first impressions are everything to me whether it be on the phone or in person. Needless to say this was not a good one. With so many choices for preschools in the Santa Rosa area I'll be moving on ...

That being said, this form of early childhood education really helps prepare your child for the real world. It allows them to grow socially and emotionally through play and helps create a very solid foundation for them to thrive not just survive their future endeavors.

That being said, the very best form of early childhood education is that where the parents participate. Parents get to know the other parents and students. Parents receive parenting education. Parents ensure that the quality is there. Parents are aware of health and safety quality. Parents get new friends that can last a lifetime. I'm friends with three mothers that I met in coop preschool over 42 years ago. You're lucky if you get to spend this time with your children.

If you're in a pinch and need childcare ASAP, and have no other options, then this place is fine…read morefor a few weeks maybe a month. Otherwise if you have the time, look elsewhere. Our children were given sugar almost everyday. We followed them on Facebook and saw that they were getting donuts, cookies, and sweets several times a week. We never signed a photo release waiver (even though they sent one home to us several times) and our kids were repeatedly posted on their Facebook page. Not okay, and so disrespectful. The kids were rewarded with otter pops if they napped. More sugar. We raise our kids to listen and respect their teachers, not do things because they will be rewarded with sugar. Our kids are potty trained. They were both sent home in their pull ups from nap on more occasions than I can count. Nap time starts at 12:30, and I would pick them up at 4/430. That's way too long to be in a pull up! One of my kids had a pull up so soiled it went through her pants. As if that's not enough, both our kids were sent home with dirty underwear. Fecal matter in their underwear several times. Our kids weren't being wiped thoroughly after having a bowel movement. I'll spare posting those photos, but I have several photos of all these events as I was starting to get very frustrated. There was one occasion where I picked my children up and one of them had peed their pants and the teacher had no idea. Lastly, I strongly felt one of my kids was mistreated and her self esteem was compromised due to the way she was treated behind closed doors. Over the weekends she's said things like " I don't want to go to yellow preschool. It's closed today" (yellow preschool being little angels). One time we were reading together and she stopped the book and said, "sorry is not enough". When I asked where she heard that she said yellow preschool. Who tells a 3 year old sorry is not enough, when they are trying to apologize? Nauseating. One of my kids said that miss Jessie yelled at her sister. Teachers are never suppose to yell at their students, ever. What does that teach the children? It makes me sick to think my kids were in that environment. I'm not one to leave negative Yelp reviews. Check my profile, I've literally only left 5 stars. My concern for children attending this school is what has lead to this post. I give it two stars. One for convenience as they got them in quick and they are located 3 minutes from our home. The other star is for Mrs. Jennifer who my children enjoyed most. They looked forward to attending her class on Fridays.

They make great efforts to provide fun, seasonally appropriate activities for the kids and they also host events. They were extremely accommodating to my son's speech therapist when he was receiving these services. The staff treat my kids like their own and my kids adore the staff too.

The kids play outside often which I believe helped my child not catch colds as easily and run around a lot. What I appreciate most about the school is that my child learned many songs, alphabets all while having great playtime with new friends and getting creative with seasonal crafts. She gets very excited to share with me what she learned and teaches me as well! There are plenty of kind teachers to watch and care for the kids, and they all know my child by name. Also what was very important for me was nutrition: the snacks they make and provide are healthy: yogurt and blueberries, nut or seed butter with crackers, fruits, veggies...

Before enrolling here, he was in an in-home daycare, and the positive change we saw in his confidence, growth, and overall happiness was almost immediate.

He is a very energetic and curious boy, and the teachers have always met him with patience, understanding, and encouragement. They take the time to truly know each child, helping them grow not only academically but emotionally and socially as well. Watching him build friendships, learn new skills, and come home proud of what he has accomplished has been incredibly special for us as parents. The current staff are truly amazing. Their kindness, communication, and dedication create a warm environment that feels more like a community than just a preschool. We feel deeply grateful to have found Little Ones, and it has become such an important extension of our family.
