I can't believe that I haven't reviewed this gem yet…read more Lengthy review..... My wife and I relocated to Bakersfield after I got off of active duty. We're new here and don't have family, so welcoming our newborn into childcare was already daunting. The first place had her in the Kern County heat during the summer for 2+ hrs and second place made us to believe she was chunky. Needless to say, my wife and I lost a lot of sleep stressing about if our baby was safe and loved at day care, I even started working nights to ensure she didn't have to stay at the daycare "Lil Explorer's" for a lengthy period of time. Well, backing up two years ago, my wife and I toured Cal Ivy and she fell in love, me not so much. I was scared that one of their pet lizards would get loose and attack my baby while she was sleep "nonsense because the pets aren't in the classrooms for the babies." Well, low and behold, I called them up for a second tour and decided to give them a try. Instead of the pet lizzard getting loose- the love, empathy, and sense of security came out and drowned my entire family. My baby girl was in the most safe of hands with people who genuinely cared about her. She had such a blast and we were all so sad when she had to leave because we relocated to Houston, TX in August of 2019. God always has the final say! We ended up moving back to Bakersfield in Feburrary of 2020 and they had a spot for her. Our girl ran up to all of the staff and gave them hugs and I, of course because full of tears. It's an amazing experience seeing your child runaway to school and know she is protected and educated. She litteraly ran away from me at the front desk and was playing in her new class. Cal Ivy has been so good to our family and I know they will be good to yours " someone I reffered from another yelp review enrolled their kiddo and loved it." Thank you for always loving my baby and keeping her safe. We're so glad to be back home and have her in the safest, loving, enriching school in town!

This was called the Mercy Child Development Center until they decided to get out of the child…read moredaycare business several years ago. With facing impending closure and the possibility of the community losing such a invaluable child care service, Mr. Edward R. Paine stepped up and assumed financial responsibility and now Cal Ivy Prep has become the finest daycare facility in Bakersfield. I know this from personal experience because when my daughter first moved to Bakersfield her son was less than 1 year old and now he is 4-1/2 years old. He has been going to Cal Ivy all this time while his mother was working full time and completing her degree at CSUB. Since we lived locally at the time, I was afforded the opportunity of sometimes taking my grandson to daycare in the morning and picking him up in the afternoon. While spending time at Cal Ivy I got to know many of the the teachers, aids and admin staff. My distinct impression is that they are all caring, nurturing, compassionate and supportive people with good hearts. Oh I'm sure you could find a less expensive place to take your child if that is your prime criteria. However I can assure you that you will not find a finer daycare facility in which to leave the most precious gift in your life - your child.

We recently attended a memorial for the woman who started it all, Mrs. Billiard. Our youngest is now 25 and still fondly remembers Little Red School House. Amazingly, many of the same teachers from so many years ago are still there, and they even remembered our daughter. We say this as not only was our daughter's experience excellent, any preschool that can keep the same staff for over 22 years is clearly well managed. One cannot always know the good you bring forth along the path of life, but Little Red School House helped our little girl become a strong and capable young woman. Thank you Little Red School House.

If you are looking for child care that is fun, safe, and productive, you should really look into…read moreLittle Red School House! My daughter has been here just over a year and we love it! I know my baby will be well prepared for elementary school when the time comes because the teachers at LRSH work with them on things like reading, writing, and even practice other languages like American Sign Language and Spanish! The school is also super fun! They celebrate every holiday with a party and have monthly bounce house day, popcorn day, and more. My kiddo marks up the calendar and really looks forward to everything the teachers have planned. The price of tuition is well worth the level of care and early education that the teachers provide. I 100% recommend Little Red School House for your littles!

Every staff member is kind and patient. They have such fun activities and new things happening all the time. They have great learning experiences and the kids learn new things every day! They've also done wonders helping with potty train, it's been amazing. Their prices are also so reasonable, they try to keep it low so they can serve the community and they take community connection. It's 2 years old up to elementary school because they have an after school and summer time program. I tell everyone I know who has a toddler to take them to OCC!
