City Of Mountain View Learning Links

We recently explored daycare options for our toddler after our current daycare closure. While learning links Mountain View boasted positive reviews and a low teacher-to-child ratio, our trial class experience left us deeply concerned. The primary teacher in the "Yosemite" room seemed disengaged, spending most of the time taking pictures instead of interacting with the children. In stark contrast to other daycares, there was an absence of playful activities and a focus on fun. During the trial class, our toddler, excited by the toys on a table, pulled a chair to reach a truck. Instead of understanding his age-appropriate behavior, the teacher reacted harshly, suggesting a special education evaluation for not asking permission. This incident exemplifies the daycare's inability to handle typical toddler behavior and their concerning practice of labeling such actions as requiring special needs. Both teacher's lack of engagement and the enrollment coordinator's apparent disconnect with toddler development raised serious questions. Their approach seemed more suited to a high school environment than a nurturing daycare for young children. I don't think the enrollment coordinator has spent any time with a toddler or they are too afraid to ask questions from their own staff. If you're considering daycare options for a toddler (especially between 2.5 and 3.5 years old), I recommend looking elsewhere and encourage you to consult Facebook groups and other reviews for a more complete picture.

Loves it. My daughter went here for more than 2 years and she loved it. She went there at 2 when she just started to talk and we can see big difference in her after she started learning links.
