After touring several preschools in the area, we ultimately chose MHPA, and have never regretted…read morethe decision. If you are looking for a reliable, clean, and caring preschool, I highly recommend MHPA. Here's what stands out: Seamless Communication: Right from the start, the communication with the owner was fast and professional. It made the entire registration process stress-free and straightforward. Facility & Environment: The school is consistently clean and well-organized. A huge plus, because they also have a large, shaded outdoor play area. The Team: The staff is friendly and caring towards each child, creating an environment where my child feels comfortable and supported. Convenient Scheduling: For working parents, their hours are a lifesaver. They are very accommodating for those of us who need to be at work early in the morning.

My elementary school psychologist wife toured almost all of Morgan Hill's preschools, and she chose…read morethis one to be above the rest. MHPA is privately owned versus the many corporate ones in town that will, so the staff is more committed and loving. I live next to a couple of corporate pre-schools and they constantly yell at the kids and play Katy Perry during play time. MHPA is like comparing ACE Hardware with Home Depot (corporate daycare). MHPA is more affordable and higher quality, don't be fooled by the pamphlets and websites of the corporate ones. The play area of MHA has big beautiful trees, and MHPD often uses their parking lot scout for speeders on Monterey. And then they give the kids stickers through the fence. My son is leaving MHPA knowing all the planets (including dwarf), 50 states of America, countries of the world with flags, body organs. counting by 9, 11, and 10s, AND much, much more. Out of all of his cousins his age, at family parties my son is always the one who always gets the "OH WOW!, HE's SO SMART & AMAZING!" Thank you MHPA, thank you Ms. Jamie & team. Your positive impact on our community does not go unnoticed.

As a first‑time mom, leaving my baby with someone else was one of the hardest things I've ever had…read moreto do. The team made me feel completely at ease through their transparency, openness, and consistent communication. My child started there as a baby and has grown into an intelligent little boy who is now ready for kindergarten, all thanks to the way they supported his learning and development. They even made potty training feel effortless by continuing the work at the center. I am beyond grateful for the directors and teachers who have cared for my child with so much dedication, care and love.

We have loved every moment with the teachers and staff. Everyone is incredibly friendly and attentive. It can be so nerve wracking sending your first baby to school for the first time, but everyone made it comfortable and easy. Even transitioning from the toddler room to the next was an easy and seamless transition. We are sad to say goodbye (we moved) but will always look back fondly on our memories here. Thank you for everything!

We absolutely love the Infant Care team at Action Day! We started at Children's Courtyard, but our…read more5 month old baby seemed so stressed and overwhelmed at the end of each day. As first time parents we were scared all Day Cares would ruin our happy baby, but after switching him to Action Day, we are back to nothing but smiles! He lights up when he sees the teachers, who all welcome him with huge hugs and they actually seem to love what they do (very different from CC) and they have so many toys and activities to keep him engaged. Action Day has introduced him to so much, from toys, to painting (I would never be brave enough to let a 5 month old to paint!) and they have helped us sleep train + introduce him to solids. We're so grateful we made the switch and are excited for our baby to grow up in such a positive environment!

Being that it was our first experience of having our daughter in preschool, the entire staff at…read moreCatalyst made it such an easy and enjoyable process. Whenever we had questions or concerns, we always received a timely response. We were always updated on our daughter's progress, whether it was through parent-teacher conferences, pictures posted on their app with dialogue and associated learning tools, or every day conversation. Our daughter loved the many fun and creative activities, daily storybooks, song and dance, and outside play. She especially loved her teachers. And by the end of the school year, we certainly were more than satisfied with our daughter's evolvement. Our daughter is more than prepared for Kindergarten this year. We can't thank the teachers and staff at Catalyst enough, and our plan is to have our son join the Catalyst preschool program once he's of age. Thank you so much Catalyst!

They have made so many friends and love all their teachers. All of the teachers and staff have been so wonderful and accommodating. We truly feel that our children are loved , safe, and cared for. As a teacher myself, I have been more than impressed with the amount of curriculum my children have been exposed to and learned this school year. They have learned their numbers, letters, phonics, and so many lifelong learning skills all before age four. I have also noticed so many new wonderful behaviors my twins have picked up from attending LSS such as praying or thanking me for the food before they eat, using manners, sharing, and just deeply caring for others around them. We have made so many great friends here as well. Without any doubt, I highly recommend Little Sonshine for anyone looking for a Preschool, PK, TK, or Kindergarten for their little ones and desire a school that not only educates the whole child, but teaches them to be compassionate to others too. You will enjoy the annual Christmas Program, Fall and Spring Photos, Bike-a-thon, Mother's Day Tea, and Father's Day Donuts, Graduation, and many other events. As parents we also receive weekly feedback from the teachers and monthly newsletters. The teachers are ver approachable and respond to your needs and questions immediately. I feel like I gained a community of friends and family from LSS. Little Sonshine Schoolhouse will always hold a special place in my family's hearts forever.

She would rather go to school then stay home and play all day. We were so lucky to find this gem, and I will recommend to everyone.

I felt like an in-home childcare was more our style. The attention my son was getting at the center was not very warm or individualized. My son can be very testy, defiant and difficult at times. When he was first starting, I remember being worried and thinking to myself, "Are they ready for this kid? Can they handle him at his worst?" I'm so grateful we found this school because I know without a doubt that this is the safest and healthiest environment for him to learn, grow and thrive. They have become his second family and he loves going to school. I love how hands on and how communicative they are. Lori has gone above and beyond to demonstrate support however she can, not only with my son but also to me during difficult parenting moments. The app they use makes it convenient to receive updates, photos, and messages. I also love that they provide healthy meals and that I don't have to worry about packing a lunch in the mornings. I'm going to be devastated the day my son graduates from her program! I can't wait to get my younger child in there this fall. Like others have said, I don't trust anyone more than Lori.

My husband and I were looking for a daycare for our daughter after having had her in Prestige from…read more1-2years old. We would have kept her there but she would have had to change classrooms and teachers every year and my daughter is too shy for that to be a successful program for us. After touring a few daycares (facility and homes based), we came upon The Sandlot. I called and spoke with the owner Lori who explained her care is actually a home based preschool program. We were invited to visit and observe, to see if it was the right program for us and to see if my daughter was a good fit for her program. We had a great feeling about it and decided to try it out. SO HAPPY WE DID! Our daughter has been with Lori for over a year now and she has really blossomed! The small (12 children), tight knit learning environment that Lori has established is really incredible! My daughter has been able to make close friends, build her social skills, learn things (like her letters and sounds by 3 1/2yo!), experiment, play, and grow! Lori implements rules that encourage respect, good morals and values, and a general safe and fun place to learn and play. We appreciate the constant communication, and respect Loris suggestions for helping the kids overcome any behavioral issues. My daughter works on art projects all the time, and they are always doing some sort of unique and creative learning activity. Lori has 2-3 assistants who are equally amazing with the kids! When we visit for parties and see the interaction between all teachers and the children, it further solidifies our trust in Lori and her program! Thank you Lori for caring so much about our kids!

Glossed over an empty…read moreapology, took zero accountability or acknowledged any of the concerns, denied the "many unfounded allegations" listed on the DSS website even though many of them were the results of surprise inspections where they were cited for multiple code violations, saying every school recommends Genius Kids (blatant lie, their favorite kind), accusing me of taking every possible avenue to say negative things about them? I wrote a review and added it to Yelp/Google. Way to make it sound like it's my life's mission to take them down by any means necessary. Thanks for the laughable attempt to gaslight me yet again. And how interesting that hours after I post my review, 2 people who list their location as SJ and Fremont, with only reviews for those areas, post reviews raving not just about GK, but specifically the owners? BLATANT LIARS. The trend you will see from the owners here is that they will deny issues, lie about what happened, lie about rectifying issues, but ultimately do absolutely nothing to address any problems. Screen-time: I have never heard of a daycare that utilizes screen time. That should have been the first red flag. I see another review here that calls them out on it and someone from Genius Kids lies (they do that a lot) and denies it flat-out. The Genius Kids Brochure lists that screen time is used (Picture attached), but it says that only Little Einstein Videos are shown, and that screen-time does not start until 5 pm, which we didn't think would matter since we pick-up before then, but I picked my son up at 4:30 one day and found the children sitting and watching Baby Shark on a tv. I emailed the owner and explained that my son has extremely limited screen-time, and when he does get screen-time he only gets educational and low-stimulating shows like Daniel Tiger, Peppa Pig, or Miss Rachel. I pointed out that screen time was not supposed to start until 5 pm and she assured me she would talk to staff, but it continued to happen consistently and her response was simply "Tell me if it happens again," and nothing would change. My son came home singing Cocomelon songs and talking about cartoons we have never even heard of and absolutely would not approve of. The children were watching YouTube videos when we picked him up between the hours of 4:00 and 4:30 pm more times than I can count. Please talk to other parents whose kids have gone here and they can confirm the children watching mindless youtube videos before 5 pm. Daycare costs way too much to have them just plop our children down in front of a screen and rot their brain. Toileting: One day we picked our son up and noticed he had been left in the pull-up he wears at nap-time (it had been several hours since nap and no one had noticed it or taken it off). We let it slide, but another day we were told our son had an accident. I sent a message asking for more information because it was concerning to have an accident after so long without one, and I got a message that it happened before nap-time. However, mixed in with his wet clothes was a wet school bedsheet, which lead me to understand that he didn't have an accident before nap, the staff forgot to put him in a pull-up for nap-time and he peed while sleeping, resulting in a wet sheet and clothes and then LIED ABOUT IT. Sunblock: One day my son came home clearly sunburned. Genius Kids requires all children to be sent to daycare with sunblock because they claim to put sunblock on children before outdoor time every day. The next day at drop-off, my husband talked to the owner and pointed out that our son was sunburned. The owner told him that we should put sunblock on him before we drop him off. Sunblock does not last all day! It needs to be reapplied every 2 hours AND immediately before being outside, which is why we assume they require children to provide their own sunblock in the first place. Refusing to take accountability and trying to shift blame onto us was appalling. Any one of these issues would be cause for serious concern, but shockingly, this isn't even close to all of the troubling incidents we experienced at Genius Kids (consistently spelling his name wrong on all of his work, when they were supposed to be teaching him to recognize and spell his super common and easy to spell name). The site is clearly understaffed and the staff they have seriously lack proper training. I refuse to allow Genius Kids to hinder my son's development, neglect, or mistreat him and I would encourage any parent to steer clear of this place. Also, please check out their insane list of violations on the department of social services website. I wish I had seen all these before sending my son there: https://www.ccld.dss.ca.gov/carefacilitysearch/FacDetail/434413902 Facility Number: 434413902
