A Rising Star Academy Childcare Center INC

A Rising Star Academy has been an incredible experience for our family! Leaving this daycare was not an easy decision—I cried when I realized we had to move on, and it’s only because our new location makes it possible for my husband to help with drop-offs and pick-ups. Otherwise, we would have stayed forever! Ms. Butler, Ms. Lingua, and Ms. Danyel are truly exceptional. They’re so nurturing, caring, and dedicated to every child. It’s clear they go above and beyond to make sure each child feels loved, safe, and engaged. Desiree, the owner, is a wonderful, warm-hearted person, and you can see how much she truly cares about the children and the entire community she’s built. Her dedication shows in everything the academy does. We are beyond grateful for the time our child spent here and for the amazing, supportive environment that A Rising Star Academy provides. If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be treated like family and cared for with so much love and attention, this is the place! Thank you, Desiree, and all the teachers for everything you’ve done for us. You’ll always have a special place in our hearts. ❤️

I’m a first-time mom so it goes without saying that I was nervous about sending my then 12-month old lil guy to daycare. I am so thankful that I found A Rising Star Academy. My son has flourished there and I’ve never once had to worry about him while he’s in their care. The staff members are all friendly, professional, and obviously care about each and every child. Owen and I both look forward to Ms Butler’s warm welcome every day. When I pick him up, he’s happily participating the afternoon activities. Sometimes he doesn’t even want to leave. I truly feel like I hit the jackpot with the love, care, and personal attention that my son receives at A Rising Star Academy.

Our kids loved going there. All the sitters and teachers were very friendly and loving with our kids. They still talk about how much they miss seeing them. Overall, a great place to ensure that your kids are being educated as well as are in very capable hands.

My daughter has been going to this school for a year and a half and she absolutely loves it. There are days we go to pick her up and she doesn’t want to leave because she’s having a great time. The teachers are very communicative and the app they use to give updates about her day is great. There are some weekends she asks if she can go to school and she gets sad if we tell her school is closed that day. Mrs. Elsa is amazing with our daughter and she has taken to her almost like a second mom. We were worried about her social interaction with her being born during Covid and not having much child interaction during her first couple of years, but she loves the friends she’s made here. Clean environment and she always has great stories about her day. I would recommend this program if you’re looking for a preschool/daycare in the Oceanside area.

I was nervous about leaving my son at Daycare but when I saw the level of care he received by all the staff, it quickly put my worries to rest. I have seen my son grow and learn so much since being here this last year! The smaller groups of children allow for more attention to go to each child and for their needs to be met. It's very clean as well which I appreciate because I've heard horror stories from other daycares and how their children are always sick but I have not had to deal with any of that. As a single mother, I truly appreciate the support, cleanliness, care and attentiveness my son and I have received while being here. I would highly recommend this daycare to anyone.
