    My son started at this school when he was just a little over 1 year old, and I couldn't be happier…read morewith the care and love he has received here. The teachers truly look out for the children as if they were their own. They know each child by name, interact with them throughout the day, and make an effort to greet them every morning with at least a warm "good morning." What I appreciate most is how understanding and patient the teachers are, especially when a child is having a difficult morning or throwing a tantrum. Instead of getting frustrated, they take the time to comfort them, calm them down, and interact with them until they feel better. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my son is in a place where he is cared for, loved, and treated with patience and kindness. I'm truly grateful to all of the teachers and staff for everything they do for the kids. Thank you to - MR JESSE , Ms Patty , Ms Andrea , MS Lizette , MS KIANA & MS Paytin & his first teacher when he started MS SAMMY - X

Your care, patience, and genuine love for the kids do not go unnoticed. You each created such a meaningful bond with my children, and that connection is something every parent hopes for but doesn't always find. We transferred our son from another school, and the difference has been like night and day. He became more confident, happy, and excited to learn. Seeing that transformation reassured us we made the right decision. Now both of our sons attend this school, and it has been such a blessing. Our oldest is graduating TK this year, which is such a special milestone for our family. We've been part of this school since September 2024, and we truly appreciate the positive environment and support we've experienced throughout. Thank you for pouring into our children and making this season so meaningful for them - and for us as parents.

From the very beginning, they each went above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where he could grow in confidence and curiosity. Their thoughtful balance of academics and play, along with their constant communication with parents, gave us such peace of mind. Every day, we felt connected to what our child was learning and experiencing. We especially appreciated how genuinely they cared for him--not just as a student, but as a person. Though we eventually moved our son to a preschool closer to home for convenience, Discovery Isle will always hold a special place in our hearts. The warmth, professionalism, and dedication of Ms. Tuesday, Ms. Esther, and Ms. Tonia made our experience here truly exceptional, and we'll always be grateful for the positive impact they had on our son's early education journey.

The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to support learning through play, creativity, and social development. We recently switched daycares, and the difference with drop-offs and pick-ups has been night and day! He walks in happily and is not upset when I pick him up nor is he in a rush to leave at the end of the day -- a clear sign that he feels safe, engaged, and cared for. A special thank you to Ms. Esther and Ms. Tuesday, who have been truly amazing. They are both incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. It's clear they genuinely care about each child's growth and well-being. My toddler always has a smile when he sees them, which speaks volumes about the warm and nurturing environment they've created. We feel confident and grateful knowing our little one is in such good hands. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a daycare that combines excellent education with compassionate care.

I'm not saying we are a Rancho Christian lifer, but I will say our experience in both the preschool and elementary school have been positive. After researching, talking to parents, and finally touring a couple of the Temecula schools, we enjoyed the fact that Rancho provided an environment that felt safe, enrichment classes that we felt were important (such as the arts), and also included a space for our kids to grow academically and spiritually. *PRESCHOOL REVIEW* We initially toured the preschool, since my daughter was not yet potty trained (and in order for her to proceed in her age level preschool, she would need to be fully potty trained). This wasn't entirely alarming since most preschools in the area have a "mandatory" deadline, which honestly can be stressful on parents. Both my kids "eased" into it; I've always believed that potty training should be a gentle transition and encouraged, not pushed. What set Rancho apart was the partnership that the admission team provided with us, recommending she start in the summer enrolled in the "Little Tots" program, which would provide her in a 3 month setting that eased her into the routine. Ms. Annalise was an amazing summer school teacher. She was in tune with what our daughter needed (especially since she was switching childcare). During the fall, she switched to Ms. Faith - another amazing teacher who also provided a safe potty environment. Soon enough, she was transitioned over to her grade level class with Ms. Jem and Ms. Shilpi. Three smooth transitions over the course of a year speaks volumes of the staff. She loved all of her teachers, and the app that the school uses - Brightwheel, provided a snapshot of their potty, eating and pix/videos for the day. The only thing I wish is that preschool and elementary somehow used the same platform to streamline communication and forms. Apps I had to download for the school are: -Blackbaud: for all application school forms, tuition/billing schedules, etc -Brightwheel: preschool only app for updates/communication -Band: Elementary school app for updates and communication Pros and Cons: Pros: -Rancho is an excellent communicator via Brightwheel/IG/FB/Email. It's easy to get a hold of someone via phone/Brightwheel, they are responsive which is important as a parent! -After a certain time in the morning, the entrance on the side of the school (closest to the preschool is closed), you will need to go to the front of the school and pass the guard check-in gate. I personally love this since there are measures in place to check any guest that comes in after a certain time. -Each parent/guardian is provided with a check in code. This is used to sign in and out of preschool at the front office. -Great school events and staff -Love that our daughter gets to see her brother (who attends elementary) at some of the school events! -Chapel: our daughter looks forward to chapel Wednesdays. Every preschooler has a blue chapel shirt; the service is age appropriate, while providing them with a spiritual baseline. Cons: -The exit gate isn't always closely monitored. There typically is staff around the area to keep an eye on anyone exiting (along with any kids trying to get out), but this could be better. -Summer school logistics was a little chaotic. And this comes from being a first time Rancho parent. We were unsure of where to go for early drop-off or late pickup. -Preschool feels siloed, I wish there was more cohesion between Preschool, Elementary and High School. Overall, we love the fact that our daughter has had a good experience with both the staff and her classmates. We feel that our voices are heard if there is ever an issue, and that for the most part administration is also visible and pleasant to communicate with! Will post our experience with elementary soon!

He's in the Rosemary Room, and his teachers, Bree and April have been absolutely incredible--so patient, loving, and supportive as he adjusted to this new environment. His old teachers were such a blessing as well. Since he's only 2.5, it's hard being away from him for so long but it's great knowing he is in the best hands. It's coming up on a year soon since he's been there and I know he will be here for the long run. It took him a little while to warm up, but now he talks about his friends and teachers all the time, and I can see just how much he enjoys being there. I'm excited for everything else he will learn and explore. The Montessori and Reggio Emilia approach here is truly special, fostering independence, confidence, and a love for learning in such a kinesthetic and nurturing way. The classrooms are beautifully designed to encourage hands-on exploration, and the teachers take the time to understand and support each child individually. Seeing my son thrive under their care has given me so much peace of mind. He comes home and teaches me something new he has learned every day. He has been all smiles, his manners and practical life skills like cleaning up after himself around the house has been such a plus too. He enjoys it. There's also a hot lunches you can pay for that is filled with nutrition and they have pizza Fridays! How fun! One of the best parts is that he's now in the Wild Olympian sports program and music class soon, which has been amazing for his development and energy. He's having a blast learning to play and share with his classmates and I love that he's getting to build his strength, muscle memory and coordination in such an engaging way. The back yard areas are built for the most amazing outdoor imaginative play. They use mostly wood and natural materials and not a bunch of plastic wear. This makes me so happy. If you're looking for a different kind of Montessori school where your child will feel safe, supported, and truly thrive in his or her own element, I can't recommend WR enough. It's a wonderful community, and we feel so lucky to be part of it!

Be aware- THEY DO NOT HAVE WEEKEND OR AFTER HOURS CARE LIKE THEY ADVERTISE. On your tour, note the green snot dripping out of every child's nose. Caretakers do not wipe noses, sanitize hands or sanitize the toys and surfaces in the room. Hand foot and mouth, lice, and respiratory infections are running rampant at this center due to poor sanitation standards. The building has been next to a lake for over twenty years and is likely riddled with mold. However, the holiday decorations seem to be of the most importance. You will often see your child's teacher scraping paint off the windows, rather than engaging with your child. Try and see past the glitz and glamour and watch for signs of neglect. Request without notice to watch your child's potential classroom, or current room, on the video cameras available to the staff only. They charge for Christmas and New Years weeks when they are closed. They close an average two days per month and charge you for them leaving you without care for your child. Other additional charges: Late payment fee, missed punch fee, late pickup fee, staff development days (tuition collected, school closed), activity fees, "donations" that are charged to your account for their tax deductions. Teachers arrive late, do not show up at all, or are called off to condense rooms together to save on payroll. Children are often not with "their" teacher and ratios exceed the legal limits. Employee cards and parent punches are later adjusted by staff to appear within the law. I was late to work a dozen times to work because there was not adequate care at drop off in the mornings. Just an empty room. I requested a credit on my child's account and was screamed at on speaker phone in the office at drop off by the owner Angelina Anton, far from an Angel, "no, and your family is no longer a fit for our center, you need to leave now". That's how they handled opportunities to improve, they remove them. If you're looking for a Christ centered Daycare, this is not it. They play Christian music and lie to your face. These folks are doing dark work. ..they advertise a ratio of 1:4 for toddlers and most days the ratio is 1:12 or more! Twelve toddlers for one person to feed, change diapers, supervise on a playground, and give individual attention to. Most teachers are there because they receive free or discounted care for their own children, who are prioritized whilst paying children are neglected. At both locations my child was neglected for an entire eight hour day, as an infant, and a toddler. No diaper change, no food, no water. The staff, including both Directors and assistant directors take zero accountability for their mistakes, because they don't want to be sued. The first week my infant was at this center, he was not strapped into his high chair and fell down three feet on to his head. I was not called, he was not taken to urgent care for possible brain bleed. Pediatrician confirmed he was injured, school changed their story multiple times to avoid accountability. This place is great if you don't care about your child's well-being. The adults who attended this center as a child twenty years ago, refuse to enroll their own children here. That speaks volumes.
