Enrolled in October 2023, withdrawing in January 2024. We are withdrawing our kids because of concerns over management and mounting red flags. Instead of simply acknowledging our concerns and trying to end the relationship on a positive tone (because certainly we have had good experiences with the teachers and other families) they are threatening to withhold our deposit because it’s in the contract. Apparently and unfortunately the administrations performance isn’t covered by the contract. Be very cautious. My frustration primarily directed at Arleen and the new office manager Yvonne. Yes Yvonne, parenting is stressful; thanks for acknowledging that. It doesn’t excuse mismanagement at your center. Parents seek out childcare that puts them at ease, not elevates their concerns.
This pre-school and day care is excellent in the Marin County.
They are experienced in this field as they have been teaching kids for the past 20 years. I recommend this school as one of the best for aspiring children as they use the latest methods to teach young children and they are always at their best.
The summer time is even better with field trips, swimming and lot of other programs and activities which makes the children very active and excel in their curriculam.They call ladybugs for younger children less than 3 and sugar bears for elder ones.
