We couldn’t be happier with Nihao! I am so glad to found this as a first school for my daughter because of the thoughtful programs they offer here. The teachers are so caring, patient, and creative — they truly make learning fun. Our child has grown so much in confidence and curiosity since joining. The environment feels safe, nurturing, and full of joy. I especially love the updates and photos the teachers send throughout the day. We’re so grateful to be part of this wonderful community!
My daughter is so happy to go to Nihao every day! Her Chinese has improved tremendously in just two months, and she’s even learned how to interact well with other children. The teachers share photos and updates every day, allowing us to see what our child is doing at school, and they always respond to messages very quickly. The activities and lessons are meaningful and interesting, and my daughter has enjoyed them so much.
My son attends full-day classes there, and the teachers are amazing. His thinking process and behavior have greatly improved. He also has a wonderful time at school and often talks about how much fun he has. Thank you, Nihao!
Wonderful Experience at Nihao Preschool in Costa Mesa My child spent a full year here and absolutely loved it. The teachers are friendly from Taiwan who brought warmth, patience, and a genuine love for the kids every single day What gave me the most peace of mind as a how often they shared updates in their app. They posted pictures at least twice a day, which helped me see what my child was doing in school. every day was full of meaningful and joyful activities. I’m so grateful to Nihao for providing such a nurturing, fun, and Mandarin learning environment.
Our two kids have had a wonderful experience at NiHao. We originally enrolled them with no Chinese background—not because we were focused on language, but because we were looking for a warm, safe, and engaging environment. And that’s exactly what we found. The teachers and staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and we always feel our kids are in good hands. The school is very well-run, and the parent app keeps us updated with daily photos, nap times, potty info, and any incidents. It gives us great peace of mind to know what’s going on throughout the day. The indoor and outdoor play spaces give the kids plenty of room to explore, and the environment is full of joy and creativity. We’re especially impressed with the fun, thoughtful curriculum. The kids practice drawing and writing in playful ways and get to be little scientists with hands-on, imaginative activities. They’ve brought home the most creative projects, and the school goes above and beyond with family events like art and dance shows, and celebrations for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and other holidays. While some staff turnover happens due to 1-year contracts, our kids have adjusted well, and there are always multiple teachers in the classroom to provide continuity and support. Though learning Chinese wasn’t our top priority, it’s been a neat bonus to see our kids pick up songs and understand basic directions in Mandarin. More than anything, we’re grateful for the kindness, safety, and joy NiHao brings into their lives.
