    at first I was living for this preschool. The environment is amazing, the staff is good too. My issue is the time they have on the billboard 6:30AM-6:30PM. This is the 2nd time it happens to me. They are late which makes me late for work. Literally waiting outside passed 10 mins.. There has been accidents where my boyfriend drops my kids and the owner has the audacity to ask what time we are picking up. Or to let them know WHEN we will be dropping them off early . I'm starting to believe this place is only interested in the money.

We're able to go to work with the peace of mind that they are taken care of. My husband and I toured a good amount of schools before deciding to have them go here since we know that we would like to keep them at the same school until they go to kindergarten. Teachers and administration really care about the well being of all the students. My 4 year old that started when he was 2.5 and my 1.5 year old have grown so much since being there. They have their daily routines and activities keeping them busy and helping them learn (something that would be really hard to do at home). During summer they even have summer activities like foam parties, swim day and a day where they bring wild life to the school for the kids to see. It seems like it was recently renovated so it's pretty modern and clean. All the rooms have windows so they get a good amount of natural light and they are so spacious! Parents are able to stop by anytime to check on our little ones as long as it doesn't interfere with their naps. We could always message through the app Lillio if we have any questions or concerns. Teachers keep us posted through out the day with pictures what they ate and their nap times. For the younger ones we even get their diaper updates. Highly recommend taking a tour so you could see how it would be a good fit for your family.

He made so many great friends here and always looked forward to going. One of the highlights was the fresh, home-cooked meals every day--it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was eating well and enjoying it too. I'm so grateful to have found a preschool I could trust, with teachers who genuinely cared about my son's growth and happiness. Highly recommend Smart Tree to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and fun environment!

The environment is so warm and nurturing, and the staff genuinely cares about every child. They're flexible, attentive, and just wonderful people. The curriculum is amazing -- it goes beyond academics and really teaches kids manners, confidence, and how to be kind and respectful. Our son also learned Spanish & Mandarin, and picked up Korean from the extra curricular karate class they offer. He also loved soccer. The fact that they offered extra curricular classes made it easy for us working parents. The in-house kitchen is another huge plus -- fresh, healthy meals every day. Kids Klub is pricier than other daycares, but 100% worth it. What you get is unmatched. Now that he's in Kindergarten at a different school, we can really see how well Kids Klub prepared him -- socially, emotionally, and academically. We can't recommend Kids Klub enough!

A huge shout-out to Ms. Jasmine, Ms. Liza, and Ms. Nancy--they're fantastic! They also have a flexible schedule that works for every family. We started with half-day programs, and I have to say, every time I pick her up at noon, the kitchen smells incredible! I found out they mainly use organic food from Costco! The facility is clean, organized, and just a lovely place. Plus, they offer Spanish and Chinese classes, along with fun activities like ballet in late afternoons. Honestly, I think it's the perfect spot for busy parents to send their kids!

He would come home with worksheets and drawings daily. REC always have updates on my son's growth and things he was learning at the time. My son enjoyed the playground a lot, said his classroom was fun, and at the end didn't want to leave REC. He would ask to be picked up later so he can stay with his class.

In the beginning, our son (18-month old) had challenges being with a group of friends and Mr. Dave, Ms. Ranum, and teachers had so much patience and positive attitude working with my son to overcome it. They assisted with the potty train process which helped us so much. The school also handled Covid situation well, and we never had to worry about it. Our son enjoys his time here. He makes good friends and he loves all the teachers from three different age classes. This place makes our parenting life to have one less thing to worry about. I recommend this school to all our friends and families. We have signed up our second son to be here and we will suggest you to take a tour to see it yourself!

    This is a wonderful place and we are so glad our daughter could go here for her first school…read moreexperience. The owners and staff are attentive, accommodating, and easy to talk to. Our child began with major separation anxiety, but thanks to the teachers who stuck by her side, she began dancing and having fun in as little as four days and the crying at drop-off stopped after 2 weeks, at which point she began to run inside to be with her teachers and friends. The facility is very clean, safe, and built with growing kids in mind. They have a really good curriculum and great activities in each classroom. In the toddler class (ages 18-36mo & where our child was) they have a 6-to-1 child/teacher ratio. If I had to complain about one thing, it's that I wish we could get more photos/videos and updates throughout the day, but since I also don't want the teachers on cell-phones all day long, it's an okay trade off knowing that our kid will come home happy everyday and sometimes with cool art projects in hand! The staff also does a great job notifying us of any incidents (booboos, bites, runny noses) that need our immediate attention or knowledge. They have a good, effective covid policy in place too and if I'm not mistaken only one child tested positive for covid since the pandemic began, but the child stayed home and quarantined. The entire school/staff was then dismissed to get tested and the results were all negative. To protect everyone, they check everyone's temps upon arrival and they won't hesitate to send children home for high temps or any covid-like symptoms. I would highly recommend anyone to come here, especially if it's their child's first school. They do a wonderful job.

However, the teachers and the principal were incredibly patient, supportive, and caring. They gave her so much love and help during the transition. Soon she began to enjoy going to school every day. She often tells me how much she loves her teachers, especially Susie and Francine, and how happy she is playing with her classmates. As a parent, I feel very grateful that my child's first school experience was with such kind and wonderful teachers who truly care about the children and help them grow with confidence. The meals at the school are also great. The food is freshly prepared by the chef every day, and my daughter always enjoys it. She eats very well there and has even grown taller since attending the school! We truly appreciate everything the teachers and staff at TopKids have done for our child.

    This review has been long overdue. This will probably be my only review I ever post on yelp as this…read moreis how strongly I feel about Top Kids in Rosemead. My son attended Top Kids Aug.2021-2022 and daughter Aug.2023-2024. My nephew is now attending. If you are considering Top Kids, please ask to tour the grounds with Mrs. Francine. She relieved my fears, ensured child safety, explained how the leaning environment worked, and so much more. She is top notch compared to the other preschool tours I attended in the local area. Overall, every teacher, aide, chef, administrator is wonderful. They truly care and do their best. What I appreciate the most is their honesty when asking about my child's performance and behaviors. (Parents: learn how to accept and use constructive criticism to your child's benefit) Here's the long version: When potty training started at my home (kids age: 2.5), it was quite difficult (as needed vs. structured), however in the Top Kids toddler class, my kids caught on somewhere between 6-8 weeks due to the structured environment. The benefit of your child being potty trained was a reduction in monthly tuition and transferring into Mrs. Francine's class. Mrs. Francine and her aides are excellent. I only have praises all around for what they do. In terms of education, she teaches letters, number, days of the week, months of the year, etc. through various techniques: writing, reading, singing, whatever her creative mind thinks of to help each individual student excel. There are also special projects such as raising caterpillars and letting the butterflies fly away, planting seeds in a cup to grow, holiday related themes. I'll stop there not to give away Mrs. Francine's surprises. Everytime I picked up my kids, Mrs. Francine would give me a synopsis of the day, if my kid behaved, ate, slept, etc. If I asked for parenting advice, she was happy to share her experiences and knowledge. Lastly, there's Mrs. Silvia's class. My son had her class for maybe 2 months before starting public school. Her class is very focused on 1st grade preparation. It's advanced compared to public school TK/K/1st grade. My one regret is that I should have kept both my kids at Top Kids for Ms. Silvia to teach them. My kids are bored in public school to this day. A personal note to Mrs. Francine: I am eternally grateful to you for the way you have shaped my children's character, Grey (1st grade) and Ally (TK). They have retained their thirst for knowledge through curiosity. They are confident, outspoken, and top in their class in public school. I hope Cat in the Hat has time to make an appearance in 2025.

When I went…read moreto check out the school with my very shy daughter, on the very first moment, Ms. Janice was able to overcome her shyness and got her to start immediately playing with the children in the playground, and then fall in line to use the restroom and attend class. It's a Christian school, and you can feel it in the air. It feels warm, kind, loving, the kids are happy, laughing, having fun, engaged, interacting with each other and the teacher. Everything about this school is amazing, staff, spirit, layout, decoration, loadout. The director is very considerate, the playground is well shaded, to prevent kids from burning themselves in the sun, the ground is a form of rubber mulch, I think. There's plenty of little kitchen houses, a slide, and a couple of titter-totters. The dense playground also allows a single staff member to effectively watch ALL the kids, and I saw it happen, Ms. Nancy called out 3 kids, within moments of each other, the layout, combined with Ms. Nancy's eagle eyes was definitely impressive. Ms. Anna, saw that my daughter was having trouble communicating, and switched between 3 different languages to engage her. The class room is loaded with toys, and while they teach, they aren't harsh on the kids, each teacher I saw, had a very gentle touch, and the kids effectively can choose what they do, and how they learn. They also had cots for the kids, so kids can nap with a pillow and blankets lying down, instead of sitting up on a study list, or on a table. The pillows, blankets, and bedsheets are returned to parents Friday, so they may wash it over the weekend and bring it in Monday. Also, of all the schools, this school was the most proactive and concerned about health, to this day, the children are still required to wear masks. The minute they walk into the building, their temperature is checked, and their shoes are sanitized, then, the children have to wash their hands. They plan make masks optional in July, but, for them to have had those policies for this long is a good thing. Personally, given how often and quickly viruses spread in school, I'm not opposed to this policy being permanent, but, to a certain degree, I understand. This school is perfectly aligned with my focus of child-rearing for my child at her age, which is a combination of fun, socialization, curiosity, basic education, health, safety. I couldn't ask for anything more. My child goes into school happy, comes home happy, and that makes me VERY happy. I toured this school first, and this school has set a bar that no other school can meet. Every other school had soulless, sad, dejected kids, studying for college at the age of 5, but this school, laughs, smiles, little monkeys running around, doing their thing, not a care in the world, screaming along as teachers ask them to recite their ABCs. I'm a single dad, I don't really know much about girl stuff, I do the best I can binding my daughter's hair so it's not in her face, and I send it off. Ms Janice would re-do her hair, with all sorts of accessories I didn't even provide, and she'd come home like a princess. She went in depressed because my ex thought it was a great idea to butcher her hair with a bad haircut during a visit, and Ms. Janice's re-styling of her hair erased the pain my ex caused her. Also, my daughter keeps showing up with snacks and toys on a weekly basis. Like... WOW? I wished I had that growing up, I don't think any other school would do this, and I cannot imagine this place turning a profit. Also, other parents tell me that this school's meals has spoiled their children for public school. They whine about how the new school's food isn't as good. At this point, you're like... "For real?", yeah, for real. One of the best decisions I've ever made. This school was a blessing, and I hope it stays around for a long time, so more people may benefit from it.
