Pasadena Preschool Academy

My son was in this school and was the best school for toddlers kids . Wonderful teachers and we miss them. Unfortunately The fire in Pasadena born it down. But I just wanted to take some time and thanks the owners for a wonderful job and to continue . My son will love to be back with you .

Both our kids went to Pasadena Preschool Academy, and we couldn't be happier! Ms. Lisa and Ms. Arlene are fantastic, caring & loving, and extremely devoted to the kids. The facilities, playgrounds, and classrooms are clean, updated, and well stocked. The teachers and caregivers there are devoted to keep your kids safe, happy, entertained, and engaged, ensuring that they learn and develop to become their best selves. I wish I could give them 10 stars!!! If you are on the fence, do not hesitate to ring their door and talk to them; we did just that, and did not hesitate to enroll our kids right there and then.

The preschool has great facilities and professional teachers. My daughter had a wonderful two years here and has now moved on to kindergarten, but she often talks about how much she wants to come back to play with her teachers and friends.

We absolutely LOVE PPA and are so happy with the learning and care our daughter received there! She started in the toddler class with she was 2.5. She had a hard time at first (as most kids do) but as soon as Ms. Teresa would take her she would stop crying and let us leave. About 6 months later, Covid hit and the school closed down for about 5 months. When they reopened, with many Covid protocols in place (smaller, separated classes, individual supplies so there was no sharing, a check in and out system which included symptom checking, etc.), I thought she'd have a hard time going back, especially because she was going to be in a different class with a different teacher but she thrived. She is very intelligent to begin with (knew all her shapes, colors, numbers to 10, and could sight read the alphabet and some words by age 2) and they were able to continue to advance her skills. She would come home reciting her numbers and colors in Spanish, plus they have a dance teacher come in twice a week (which she loved) and a music teacher once a week. They also have a soccer coach come in and my daughter is very competitive and loves playing soccer so that was another positive for us. She made so many amazing friends at that school that I hope will always be in her life. The teachers are lovely, caring and fun. The staff is positive and easy with whom to communicate. They serve nutritional food for breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack and all this at an extremely reasonable tuition. We can't say enough great things about this school and we are so lucky that we found it. She has now started Kindergarten and though she is learning French at her new school, she will occasional still speak Spanish at home. We continue to have play dates with her friends from PPA because they are all so close and the families are just as lovely. We definitely loved our time at PPA and recommend it wholeheartedly!

We have been coming here since the pre-pandemic days and so far it has been great. My older son went through PPA until kindergarten and my younger one now is in PPA in the toddler class. The teachers seem like they really care and both my sons love it there. Even my older one goes back and shows the teachers his toys since he remembers all of them. My younger one continually talks about Ms. Ashley and Ms. Flora. He loves them. Today one of the teachers called my son the heart of the class and just the other day one teacher gave my son a Spiderman toy for his birthday. Man... they care. I love it. I can't praise them enough.
