Big Future Preschool

Best decision we made for our little girl was to enroll her @ BIG FUTURE PRESCHOOL.
TheTeachers/​Staff are all Amazing my daughter loves them all. She has learned so much
She has grown so much from this shy little 3 year old to this confident outgoing 5 year old
If i could keep her there another year i would lol
But sadly our journey has come to an end. If you have the chance to Enroll your child here rest assure u have made the best choice for your little one.

We were so lucky to have found Big Future Preschool when we moved to Carlsbad a year ago. My daughter has really flourished in her pre-​kindergarten class. Before she started, she really had no interest in writing her letters or trying to read. Now, she loves to write notes and make cards for her family and friends and is able to read many words on her own. She has really developed an interest in learning. Her somewhat strong willed personality has meshed well with that of her teacher, Ms. Katie, who is down to earth, funny, energetic and organized. Ms. Holly and Ms. Tina have been equally amazing. I really feel welcome when I am there and that my opinion is important. Also, there are many opportunities for parents and other family members to come to the school and support and celebrate with their children. I would definitely recommend Big Future Preschool.

I am so very lucky to have found Big Future! My daughter started going there when she was 3 years old, and now going on 6. We originally went to Bright Horizons at the same location when she was 2. When it closed, we transitioned to another Bright Horizons location, by the time she was 3 Big Future was open, and because of the location, I transferred back over. That was the best decision I have made in regards to her education and care.
Big Future is a family, and that’s exactly how I felt when I walked in, like a home environment, warm and welcoming. Not only are the teachers amazing, but the rest of the staff too. I can talk to them like friends, and many of hem have become a friend. There are family oriented events during and after hours, that really let you meet and speak to the other families. This is where many play dates were set up.
My daughter is now 5 going on 6 and will start Kinder in the fall. The best thing that has happened to her is Ms. Katie. She is so down to earth and friendly. My daughter bonded with her instantly! You know you have a keeper, when even at home your child talks about their teacher constantly. «Ms. Katie is so silly!» «Ms. Katie taught us the Friday dance!» «I’m gonna show Ms. Katie my new dress!» And that’s through the eyes of a child, but what I saw was my daughter excited to start reading, writing and coming home telling me about the planets, the presidents and different countries! Her classroom is so organized and cute! So many different activities that I have never seen. Whenever I pick up my daughter she is always at a different «station», enthusiastically showing me things and often asks if she can stay a little longer to finish up. I am just as excited for her to have such a wonderful teacher, as she is. She really is a blessing.
And she isn’t the only teacher that we were blessed with, Holly, Tina, Debbie, and Sharri were, and still are wonderful teaches and mentors to her. She still greets them all with hugs and exited to see and share with them. Christine and Dirk are awesome directors/​teachers, and equally is the owner Scott, who is on site often and has lead a great science program. Being a single mom, I am on a tight budget every month, and I find this site very affordable compared to others in the area. The great thing about the tuition is that I didn’t have to pay a registration fee and my tuition never went up annually, I was locked in at the price that we registered. Not sure if that’s still the case now, but definitely ask about it.
Overall, if you’re looking for a daycare/​preschool for your child, Big Future is my recommendation. Nothing makes me happier than knowing that my daughter was loved, taken care of and adequately prepared for and excited to go to Kinder!

My family and I have been with Big Future since they opened up a few years back at their Carlsbad location. I am SO thankful that we found such an awesome preschool for my son. The environment and staff are so welcoming and my son has learned so much. Just knowing that he will be starting kindergarten next year, I feel so confident that he will do great because of the teachers at this school.
They also have family events held throughout the year where we get to meet other families as well. Overall this school is a great place for my little guy ;)

Sadly, my child’s current school is closing at the end of this school year and I am thus searching for another preschool. When I read all the previous wonderful reviews, I had to check out Big Future Preschool in Carlsbad for myself. I did not have an appointment, however wanted to stop by for a quick peek at the campus and to schedule a tour. The Director was kind enough to take me on an immediate tour, and I was impressed by what I saw. BUT… there were two things that she said and did that absolutely turned me off. (1) At the very beginning of our conversation, when I stated that I was looking at preschools because my child’s school was closing, she asked me repeatedly the name of the school, where it is located, and when exactly the last day of school would be. Rather than offering any empathy to the situation (as EVERY OTHER preschool I visited had), she expressed immediate interest in purchasing items from the school whenever they were ready to sell them off. From a business perspective, I can understand where she is coming from with that inquiry… but I found it was extremely insensitive, especially for the Director. (2) At the very end of our conversation, I asked what the enrollment/​registration process is, and she point blank said, «If I don’t have money in my hand, then I can’t reserve a spot.» Wow. I absolutely understand that a registration deposit of some sort is due, that is typical. That response, to me, was offensive and her tone was downright rude.

I am so thankful for the wonderful staff at Big Future. My son has been thriving and so happy here! He went from throwing melt down tantrums every morning (on our way to a daycare place he wasn’t happy at) to telling me he can’t wait to go to school– the night before! As a working parent– it can be very stressful leaving your child somewhere. Thankfully that is now one less thing I have to worry about. He always tells me what a good day he had when I pick him up. Learning his letters, writing his name and singing songs! Ms. Christine and Dirk at the front office are always pleasant and helpful. And Ms. Debbie, Shari, Teresa and Holly are all wonderful teachers. (Those are just the ones I know best) We have nothing but great things to say about Big Future! Thanks guys

We have nothing but love for Big Future Preschool. I started bringing my first daughter (now 7) to Big Future when a previous school, Bright Horizons, was in the same building. We loved the director and teachers, so when our old school closed and our director had the opportunity to work for Big Future, we were on board. After my first graduated from Pre-​K we enrolled my three year old and Big Future for four days a week. Not only have the teachers (Miss Christina, Miss Katie, Miss Holly and Mr. Dirk) and new director, been amazing, but the owner is equally as wonderful. The school has been beautifully built since it opened and there is a real sense of family there now. We couldn’t have asked for anything better.

Our son has attended Big Future Preschool in Carlsbad for the past year and we absolutely love everything about this school! All of the teachers and school director are fantastic (he attends Ms. Holly’s class who is wonderful). The extracurricular programs are awesome too (he attends weekly Spanish and Boot Camp). While there is a strong emphasis on education and prepping kids for Kindergarten, there is an equal and healthy balance of creative time and play. You know you have found the right school when your son can’t wait to get there everyday! We are so thankful for Big Future and highly recommend it!

My two children attend Big Future Pre-​School and we absolutely love the school.
My son is attending the Pre-​K class with Ms. Katie and Ms. Holly… He is completely smitten by them both. He has grown leaps and bounds the last year with these two Amazing teachers. He will start kindergarten: reading, knowing his sounds, letters, and how to write short sentences. Our heart Broken that tomorrow is his last day… but will have a forever friendship with these amazing teachers.
My daughter is in the 2’s and 3’s class and adores both Mrs. Tina and Ms. Linda. She started a shy 18month old and now: counts in Spanish, mastered sign language and loves her art time.
We love this school!!!

Love this place! My little girl has been going there for over a year, and the teachers have been amazing. And Miss Heather is always there to answer questions and is easy to talk to. All the staff is so warm and welcoming, I will be so sad whenever we move, I wish I could take the whole school with me! But until then, I am so happy to have her there. She is always asking for her Teachers, and has done all the extra activities they have. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!

my daughter thoroughly enjoys this school. Ms. Kristina helped her transition from the toddlers class to the 4’s class with Ms. Cassie. both teachers have had a huge impact on my daughters overall progression and now she cant stop telling me how she has fun in school! everyone here is very professional and take the time to talk to the parents about their kids. couldn’t be happier recommending this school!

I can’t say enough good things about Big Future! I wish I had found it earlier (my son goes to kindergarten next year). Big Future is truly a preschool not a daycare. Every teacher is a professional and you can tell that they chose early childhood education not as a job, but as a profession. The rooms are spacious, well stocked, and incredibly clean. The teaching is creative and fun. The kids want to go to school! The director, Heather, is phenomenal. And the owner is incredibly invested in the program and very present at the school. With all that I have said above, I would be incredibly happy, but it gets even better. This school is very science focused. They do amazing, interactive, experiments weekly. We are not talking about simple what happens to water when it boils? They explode things, they build bridges, they get messy. The science is incredibly engaging. This school was established, clearly, to teach children that education is fun. Isn’t that what we all want-​our children to want to go to school? I am a very picky Mom. Visit here. You will fall in love!

I cannot say enough great things about Big Future. My two boys (2 and 4) attend here and have been here for almost a year. Any time there have been any concerns with one of my kids they have been more than responsive. When my oldest was having difficulty acclimating to a new classroom and new peer relationships Heather (director) took lots of time out to hear from me on how he was struggling and assisted the teachers with making changes in the classroom to provide him with additional support. For both boys all the teachers have demonstrated a caring, nurturing approach with a commitment to the kids being successful. I am so glad we found Big Future!

Love this preschool! We were lucky to have found it! The teachers are amazing, the facility is beautiful. Our son has gone there for 2 yrs and about to graduate from Pre-​K. The tuition is very affordable compared to other preschools in the area.

I honestly could not be happier with Big Future Preschool. The staff is INCREDIBLE! My daughter has gone from the 18month class, to the 2 – 3 class, now to the 4s class and each and every one of the teachers that has worked with her has been dedicated, enthusiastic and caring. The staff genuinely appears to love working with the kids and their enthusiasm is infectious! The programs are well organized and supported by Ms. Heather (love her!) and Mr. Scott. The classrooms are clean and well managed. The work samples my daughter brings home are academic based, but always fun and developmentally appropriate. She LOVES learning and her school has had a lot to do with that. They even have a garden and chickens outside :) I am an elementary school teacher by profession and needless to say, I’m a tough sell… but Big Future has sold me BIG time! Their prices are also so reasonable for the area! This place is the best of all worlds. Check them out!

My daughter has been going to this school for about 2 years now and we absolutely love it. We came from the San Marcos location then switched as it was closer for us. Both school is great! All of the teachers at this school are all very helpful, attentive and cares so much for your child. My daughter’s teacher Ms. Katie is amazing, we absolutely love her. She’s very sweet, her room is always well organized and a great teacher. Ms. Heather the head director always has a smile in her face and always so helpful and a sweetheart. The owner Scott has a big heart and you can just tell how much growing and learning is very important to him and how this school is a priority. I’m so glad that my daughter goes here. Thank you so much Big Future Pre-​school and I highly recommend this school!!!

So my daughter will be leaving Big Futures to start kindergarten in a few weeks and I am both sad and excited. Miss Katie, the teacher that helps prepare the kids for school is amazing. She has been instrumental in bring my daughter out of her shell and believing in herself that she can attempt things she is unsure of. My daughter has a possible learning disability and because of Miss Katies different styles of learning, my daughter is learning to connect the dots in a way that isn’t traditionally taught, which will help as she enters into school. I wish we could keep her there!

We love love this school. My niece was in another school prior to coming here and we noticed her attitude was horrible. She was so bossy and learning new mean words. We took her out and started her here, she has been so much happier and learning cute new songs! Heather, the director is a true GODSEND, she is so patient and always cheerful and holds down that school like a pro (haha, because she is one). I recommend this school to anyone I encounter and my son will be there in December!

My kid has been with Big Future in San Marcos and now in Carlsbad location for about 2 years. The play area is huge, they have upgraded many things at this school classroom, play areas, teachers etc. The staff are very friendly and they rates are reasonable. Mr. Scott is very dedicated and hands on owner! Highly recommend!

Our kids just started going here last week and we could not be happier. We visited a number of preschools and Big Future was the best by far. The teachers are very caring and extremely interactive with the kids. This is not a daycare — they actually teach them. I would highly recommend them.
