Mr. Diaz's Owl class is the same and it seems they are always changing up the work the kids do which is great. Kudos to Sandrine and her staff, we highly endorse the school.

Both of my children attended daycare at Three Little Owls. My son was in the infant room and my…read moredaughter in the preschool. We toured numerous daycare centers in Vista, and Three Little Owls was the obvious choice for a number of reasons. First, it was by far the cleanest daycare center we toured. The teachers and owners are extremely vigilant about daily cleaning and sanitizing. It was also opened more recently so all of the toys, supplies, and furniture are very new and clean. Next, they make all meals fresh for the students, daily. My son started at six months when he began solids and I was so impressed with the food they offered him. (They make the babies homemade bone broth puree!) my daughter also loved all of the homemade meals and snacks in the preschool. Lastly, the owners and teachers all truly love the students. My husband and I both work full time and leaving our babies everyday is hard. However, I always felt so confident that they were loved and cared for by every teacher at Three Little Owls. You don't find teachers that compassionate and invested in the children at every daycare. It is truly a special place. I highly recommend Three Little Owls to anyone looking for childcare. We are so grateful for all they have done for us.

The staff are incredibly kind, nurturing, and genuinely care about each child as if they were their own. They prepare fresh, delicious meals daily, and it's clear that so much love and thought go into everything they do. I would also like to add how clean and well kept the place is! They do a fantastic job ensuring the space is not busy and clean! We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful, safe, and enriching environment for our son. Three Little Owls Academy is truly a special place!

If parenting had a cheat code, I'm fairly certain it would be called Kids town Montessori…read more We enrolled our daughter expecting the usual preschool perks: some finger painting, maybe a few new songs, and the occasional macaroni masterpiece. What we got instead was a small army of patient, brilliant humans who apparently moonlight as child-development wizards. Within two weeks, they had our daughter potty trained, a milestone that had previously seemed like it would require negotiation tactics used at international peace summits. By age two, she was confidently putting on her own clothes. By 3 1/2, Ms. Rahda had taught her to read! And by four, she was casually writing full sentences, while we were still trying to remember where we left our coffee. But the real magic of Kids town isn't just the academics. The teachers genuinely love the kids like they're their own. You can feel it the moment you walk in. They know every child, every quirk, every milestone, and they celebrate them all. Their communication with parents is fantastic, which means we never feel out of the loop and always know how our daughter is growing. Kids town Montessori somehow manages to create an environment where kids become independent, confident, curious little human and they do it while making it look effortless. If you're looking for a school where your child will be nurtured, challenged, and occasionally come home sounding suspiciously smarter than you, Kids town Montessori is it.

It has been remiss of me not to leave a review of this wonderful school after all the great years…read moreour family has spent here. My oldest son was just 18 months old when he first started in the baby room (he's 10 now). Until then, I had never trusted anyone other than family to care for him, so leaving him with new caregivers was incredibly difficult. Ms. Shirin helped make that transition so much easier. She carried him around lovingly, helped him adjust, and showed him so much kindness and patience. In truth, she treated all of the children with that same level of care. One of the things that initially made me choose KidsTown over other programs was the camera system throughout the school. Being able to see firsthand the excellent care the children were receiving gave me tremendous peace of mind. I also loved being able to check in and see my little guy enjoying his day and participating in activities. Before long, he was cleaning up toys at home while singing the "clean up" song he had learned at school! It quickly became clear that this was so much more than daycare--these children are truly learning and growing every day. As he moved into the Pre-K classroom, he began developing strong academic skills and a genuine love of learning. Every teacher he had helped nurture his strengths and encouraged his curiosity. He later moved into the kindergarten and elementary programs, where he continued to flourish with the benefit of close instruction and individualized attention. He has now successfully transitioned to public school, and I truly credit much of his academic success to the strong foundation he built at KTMS. Our second child now attends KTMS. He is autistic and has some additional needs, and the support he has received has been extraordinary. Ms. Karina and Ms. Suzie have been wonderful with him in the toddler classroom. Ms. Karina goes above and beyond every single day to support both him and our family. Before that, Ms. Mala was incredibly loving, patient, and attentive with him in the baby room. Since starting here, we have seen tremendous growth and progress. We could not ask for a more caring, attentive staff or a more positive environment. Supporting a child with extra needs truly takes a team, and at KTMS, we have found our village. While KTMS may not be the least expensive childcare option available, it has absolutely been one of the best investments we have made in our children's future. Mrs. Mahsa, along with her mother, are exceptional administrators. The school is consistently well-run, organized, and responsive. Whenever I had a question or concern, Mahsa was always accessible and proactive in finding solutions. Her years of experience with both children and running a successful school are evident in everything she does. We feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of the KTMS family for so many years, and I would wholeheartedly encourage any parent to consider it for their child.

I love the app feature, I love getting pictures and videos of how her day is going. She is now aged 2 and she walks in/runs most days. Knows a majority of the staff by name. Is a helper, a team player, has learned her colors, counts and knows her ABCs. I chat with the staff, I walk in happy every morning and literally rarely check the app now cause I am just that damn comfortable with everyone at La Petite watching my daughter. Best decision ever

We feel so lucky to have found this school when we needed the support most and we highly recommend this program for your little if you want to see them be loved, supported and grow in an environment full of care.

We've been at All Saints since 2017; my daughter went through preschool there and now I'm sending…read moremy son. My daughter LOVED her teachers in Honey Bears and Panda 2. Her experiences at All Saints were invaluable in terms of social/emotional learning--academics were a huge bonus, even though that wasn't high on my list. You'll notice a few bad reviews--a lot of people were unhappy with the changes made by the new director (or the board, really). I get that change is hard, but sometimes we have to look at the bigger picture. Personally, I didn't think it was a big deal to stop having an outside person come in to do the music program, or to have the gym bus stop coming by--that was an extra cost that I didn't think was necessary. And the biggie--the tuition changes--yup, it sucks that it happened all at once after not raising their fees for two whole years. But now All Saints' prices are comparable with other local preschools. The convenient location and loving teachers make the cost totally worth it.
