She absolutely loves going to school every day and is learning so much. We're especially impressed that she's being exposed to both Mandarin and Spanish at such a young age. One of the biggest things we've noticed is how confident she has become. She is always talking, sharing, and expressing herself, and it truly feels like a reflection of the safe, supportive environment the school has created. That confidence has clearly been built through the incredible teachers, the nurturing culture, and the wonderful kids she's surrounded by every day. Her teachers, Ms. LiLi and Ms. Rosemary, are truly exceptional. They are so caring, loving, and attentive, and they consistently make us feel confident that our daughter is safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. As a parent, that peace of mind means everything. We also love the community at LA Sunshine Preschool. Our daughter is growing up around kind, like-minded children, and the parents are wonderful as well, which makes the experience even more special. Overall, we feel incredibly grateful every single day that this is where we get to drop her off. She is in the best care possible, and we highly recommend LA Sunshine Preschool to anyone looking for a nurturing, high-quality environment for their child.

As a parent of two girls, LA Sunshine Preschool has meant so much to our family. Our older daughter…read morespent her preschool years with Ms LiLi and Ms Rosemary and is now thriving in first grade in the Mandarin dual language program at Broadway Elementary. The strong foundation she built gave her confidence, curiosity, and a real love of learning. Seeing her succeed now makes us even more grateful for the years she spent there. Our younger daughter is currently at LA Sunshine, and it has been amazing to watch her grow. She has become such a confident little leader in her class, full of creativity and excitement about learning. The teachers really encourage the children to express their ideas, try new things, and support one another. One of the things we appreciate most about the school is the strong focus on social emotional learning and respect. The teachers guide the children in understanding their feelings, resolving conflicts kindly, and caring for each other. It creates such a thoughtful and supportive classroom environment where every child feels valued. Just this past month alone has been filled with wonderful learning experiences. The children raised butterflies from caterpillars, which became an exciting hands on project. They counted the caterpillars, observed the changes each day, wrote about what they saw, and talked about the life cycle in Mandarin and Spanish. When the butterflies finally emerged, the kids were absolutely thrilled. The teachers are so thoughtful about turning everyday moments into learning opportunities. One day the kids discovered an insect under the playground slide, and that moment turned into a whole exploration about insects. They read books, talked about bugs, and shared their observations from outside. There are so many joyful activities that make school special. The children do fun science experiments using things like food coloring, which sparks so much curiosity. They also have Happy Kitchen days where they cook lunch together. The kids love preparing food as a group and it teaches teamwork and independence. We also love the enrichment activities. The music teacher who comes in is fantastic and the kids have so much fun singing and moving together. Soccer is another highlight of the week and the children look forward to it every time. And show and tell every Wednesday is a great way to build the kids' confidence. LA Sunshine Preschool is truly a place where children feel safe, respected, and inspired to learn. The teachers care deeply about each child and create an environment where curiosity, kindness, and confidence can grow. We've also built deep and lasting friendships with other parents and feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community.

From day one, the entire Pacifica team has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and supportive. What we appreciate most is that Pacifica is a true Montessori school--rather than a school that uses Montessori materials. The teachers genuinely respect each child's individuality while encouraging independence, confidence, and a love of learning. We've watched our daughter grow so much over the past year, not only academically but also socially and emotionally. She looked forward to going to school every day, and that says a lot. Thank you to Mrs. Rosa and the entire Pacifica team for creating such a wonderful environment for children to learn and thrive. We are so grateful and can wholeheartedly recommend Pacifica to any family looking for an authentic Montessori education.

My daughter adores every aspect of FTH--from the enriching classes to the academic challenges that have helped her thrive. Now at 5, she even enjoys practicing cursive! What sets FTH apart is how the staff truly gets to know each child. When she first started, she was shy and prone to the typical meltdowns. The team nurtured her and thoughtfully paired her with peers who were a great match for her personality. This personalized care has transformed her into a confident, outgoing child who isn't afraid to try new things or speak up for herself. The blend of diverse personalities among the staff creates a welcoming, family-like atmosphere where strangers quickly become friends. I always feel at ease leaving my daughter in such a safe, supportive environment. I have no doubt she's making lifelong memories, and I highly recommend FTH to any family seeking a nurturing, enriching experience for their child.

Over the past two years, our son has learned so much, not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well.

We chose ACP for their outdoor classroom style. The outdoor area is beautiful, with shady trees, a garden the kids help care for, a playground, plus sand and grass to explore. The kids spend most of their day outside, running, playing, and building friendships. There's plenty of time later in life to sit at a desk. At this age, we wanted our child to explore, learn through play and just enjoy being a kid! The teachers are incredible and their level of care has been so appreciated! They eased our nerves in those early days with extra care, hugs, and photo updates. Now our son happily says, "I'm ready for school!" each morning and cheerfully waves us off at drop-off. Thank you ACP, for caring so deeply for our family and putting us at ease.

I can only try to write this review without crying bittersweet tears. My youngest child just…read moregraduated from YMLA, and I miss this place so much already. I feel so grateful that we found this preschool that gave us a home away from home. Where teachers quickly became family. Where my children's most formative years were filled with so much love and thoughtful guidance on how to grow and develop as little humans. The teachers and directors here are beyond exceptional. I really don't know how to describe their instructional approach in any other way than "love." The staff love what they do and they love the kids entrusted in their care. They treat each child as an individual with individual needs. They respect the kids' emotions and help guide the children to understand these emotions as they engage with their daily learning activities. From an operational standpoint, this place is everything I could have asked for. There's a wonderful balance of indoor and outdoor time (the kids get A LOT of outdoor play!). Every month you'll be sent a full calendar with all the different "special days", events, and enrichments. There's a weekly newsletter with group pictures, highlights, reminders, and the week's educational focus. Also weekly, you'll get a full, custom summary of YOUR child--highlighting how their week went, what they learned, what areas of growth they worked on and the best part. . . pictures! I truly felt like it was easy to communicate with staff whenever I needed to. The staff make every event so special, as well. From Friendsgiving, to the winter show performances, to "snow day" (they bring a snow machine to the school playground for a day!), to their epic annual "Art Show" (when my kids were 4-years-old, they painted BOB ROSS LANDSCAPES. . .and they look amazing!), to their leprechaun traps and pot of gold hunts, and . . . well, I could go on and on. Suffice to say, they go to lengths to make these special years for your child feel truly magical. As I watched my youngest child perform during her graduation ceremony, I realized. . . we've been going here for four years, and I've never had a single complaint. Not one. Every issue was handled with tact and grace. With superhuman patience and incredible communication. This school was our village. Our tribe. Our special place to laugh, play, smile, cry, and grow. I'm so grateful to have landed on this doorstep, and I will miss it dearly.

The teachers are incredibly loving and care about every child. Our son built such special relationships with each of them, and it meant SO MUCH to us knowing he felt so loved while he was there. We also really appreciated the weekly updates- they made us feel connected to what he was learning and gave us such a great glimpse into his days. Another thing that really stood out was how the teachers handled conflict. They approached every situation with so much patience, kindness, and respect, helping the kiddos learn how to work through challenges in a positive way. This is such a special school, and it's easy to see why they have a waitlist. If you're thinking about enrolling, try to make your decision early- you'll be so glad you did.

It is a small home based Spanish preschool with a max of 14 kids with 3-4 teachers spaced out during the day. If Spanish is important to your family, this is an amazing school for your child. This will help your child get a head start in learning the language. My children ended up going to the local language immersion school and they tested in as a native Spanish speaker thanks to Niños preschool. They have music and yoga teachers come 3 times per week as well, instruction all in Spanish! Teacher Vero, Teacher Jackie, and Teacher Annie have helped us raise our children and we are so grateful to them! The hours of this school are 7:30am-5:30pm which is great for working parents. Breakfast, lunch, and 2 snacks are provided in the tuition and they are always home cooked meals, mostly plant-based cooked that morning! The community of parents are great and the school always hosts lovely holiday events for the families. They go above and beyond to make this a family oriented environment even getting each student presents for holidays and their birthdays! We loved this school and can't recommend it enough!

On the recommendation of a friend we visited Growstrong Preschool and 7 years later we are about to…read morehave 2 proud Growstrong graduates! I cannot speak highly enough of Growstrong. It is a small, in-home preschool, that has a maximum of 10 students (~6 more recently), and the teacher, Ms. Yvette, pours into these kids so that they are proud and excited learners and are able to do so much more than you ever imagined a 4 year old could do! When looking for a preschool we wanted a place where we felt our child would be safe, with attentive teachers, not sat in front of a screen all day, he was treated well, and he would learn important socialization skills and basics to ensure that they were ready for kindergarten. Growstrong EASILY checks those boxes and goes far beyond. Our 2nd child will graduate from Growstrong in the fall. Between the two of them we have kids who were reading at a 2nd grade level or higher, adding, subtracting, multiplying, doing word problems, playing chess, reciting the "I Have A Dream" speech and excerpts from King's other works as well as poems by authors like Robert Frost, and doing so much more by the time they leave preschool. And through their entire time there they were treated like family by Ms Yvette--a woman who I have never seen even raise her voice at any of these children despite how crazy they may have been acting--given healthy home cooked meals daily, and respected like real little humans with feelings and independent thoughts. It says a lot that out of my son's class of 5 students, 4 of them are siblings to children who graduated or currently go there. I have also grown to be friends with many of the parents of the children who have attended because we are all similarly invested in our kids and their future and value what Growstrong provides. And all of the kids have always been incredibly sweet. With so many difficult decisions as a parent, selecting Growstrong was easily one of the best ones we have ever made.
