We love Downtown Preschool! I am an early elementary school teacher and I love the curriculum they provide and the creative playtime. There are no computers or tv, which I appreciate but a lot of choices for the children to learn through playing. The meals and snack are always healthy and low in sugar and made with love often by Mr. Steve! Ms. Donna and Mr. Steve (the owners) along with Ms. Gloria and Ms.Ana have given both of my children firm and loving guidance for the past 2 1/2 years. They have taught them so much and helped them both to be prepared for Kindergarten! I have recommended Downtown Preschool to every person I can because I really believe in the way that they educate and care for children!

Downtown preschool is an amazing school! I took my 2 year old son there and he was having trouble putting words together but after a month he was speaking full sentences! At about 2 and a half he was potty trained too. Downtown preschool isn't like normal child care, it is an actual 5 star school. They have a curriculum and a set schedule every day of the year so that the kids experience and learn new things every single day. Another thing you won't find in regular child care is structure which is extremely important for young developing minds. My son learned so much from a structured environment such as manners, respect and following rules. So much so that he is great in every environment. Terrible twos does not exist as my son never had the terrible twos thanks to downtown preschool. The one lesson that kids need to understand is mindfulness and my son has successful achieved that because of this school. I know it sounds like a lot to teach kids at a young age but this school does it successfully. The teachers have taught for years and years that their wisdom truly shows through the kids. I can't thank them enough for everything they've taught my son! I will definitely be recommending this school to all my friends with kids!

This is an amazing pre-school/daycare. I couldn’t tell you how much my daughter learned from all of the staff here at Downtown Preschool. I’m not the type of person that writes reviews but I couldn’t not write one for them. I am so thankful for Mr. Steve, Mrs. Donna, Ms. Gloria & Ms. Anna – the love they have for the children is unbelievable – there’s discipline, consequences, a curriculum the kids follow and so much learning going on in this place. My daughter attended this school for 3 years, left knowing how to write her full name, knows all the letters of the alphabet, learned how to add & learned a little of subtraction – the things kids don’t learn until kindergarten! - She was definitely ahead starting Kindergarten. She previously went to another daycare where they were suggesting my daughter needed therapy because she couldn’t run & jump properly (at the age of two!) I put her here & suddenly my kid was able to run & jump properly – all she needed was help, which is what this school provided. They guide the kids & help them in the areas where they struggle. It was a bittersweet moment when my daughter moved on to Kindergarten. This daycare is more than a daycare – it’s a school /learning center where they actually want your kids to succeed in life. Mr. Steve, Mrs. Donna, Ms. Gloria & Ms. Anna, thank you to all of you for all that you did for my family & my sweet girl. The Trujillo Family

We love this place! I had a horrible experience before finding this amazing group of people! I feel so blessed to have them in our lives! Mr. Steve and Ms. Donna are always with a smile welcoming us every morning. I can not come close to explain how much we LOVE Ms. Gloria, and how sweet Ms. Anna has been to us. My son's behavior has changed immensely and his vocabulary has grown in leaps. At two years old he can now decipher between colors. I am so grateful for the time they spend with him, it makes having to be a working mom so much easier.
