This school is simply the best ! warm, welcoming, and filled with truly excellent teachers and staff. We love every single person there. they treat us like family and genuinely care about each child. Theyre so helpful, so kind ,I’m so incredibly thankful for everything they’ve done. They’ve done an amazing job helping my son grow socially, emotionally, and in his learning – he’s thriving because of them. He loves this school and so am I. If you’re looking for a nurturing, top-quality place for your toddler, this is it. you cant find better place for your child. Highly recommend!
We’ve had a wonderful experience at this preschool. The teachers are caring, attentive, and truly invested in each child’s growth. The environment is warm and engaging, and my child is excited to go to school every day. We’re very grateful for this community and highly recommend it. I wish I had known about it sooner.
Do NOT TRUST this school. Both Nancy, the (secretary) and Inclan, the (principal) are very argumentative, insulting, arrogant and rude to parents. The first time I spoke with both over the phone and in person I was overwhelmed with how they speak and treat parents. I have a little one that I constantly get compliments about their personality and behavior and I do not know if I would trust to send my child to a school with the secretary and principal being so vicious and aggressive. And many complaints from other parents. We are planing to file a formal complaint with the District for their inappropriate approach to parents. In my opinion they are very unprofessional, dishonest and disrespectful. These other good reviews must be definitely FAKE. It is coming from the school stuff, secretary or principal using a fake account. There is no way that given the number of negative behaviors, including rudeness, and insult approach during the process of simply requesting for an application and going through the application process, which didn’t only occur once or twice, but the entire beginning to end of pure rudeness and unprofessionalism from these both that these two can receive positive reviews.
I was extremely disappointed with Ms. Nancy. She was unprofessional and disrespectful, shouted at me in front of my child, and even threatened to call the police. When I asked about my child’s excused absence, she threw termination papers at me and forced me to sign them rudely. What should have been a simple request became unnecessarily stressful. I hope the school addresses this behavior and ensures future interactions are professional and respectful.
Our child has been attending this preschool for almost two years, and we truly couldn’t be happier. The entire staff is warm, caring, and incredibly professional — you can tell they love what they do. The teachers always come up with creative activities, and the classroom feels like such a joyful, safe space. Our little one absolutely loves going every day — and that means the world to us as parents. We’re so grateful to be part of this wonderful community!
