Sailors Preschool & Family Child Care

We were lucky to have found Sailor’s school when we moved to Dublin from santa Clara in July 2015. Sailaja is always very responsive when it comes to Kids development. She takes a lot of interest in their well being and development. My son (now 3.5 yrs) has been very happy and he always talks about what he did in school and he loves his teachers. That’s the most important thing for me and my husband.
Sailaja helped our son in improving his language skills, and guided us on how to work on those things. Our son is fussy when it comes to food. He likes indian food for the most part, and so getting food in the school has been very helpful. He eats well in school and I hardly ever hear complains about him not eating his lunch or snacks. Sailaja and her team provides fresh food which is a big help to parents.
Kids also learn various activities during the day and they also bring their craft work home. It’s always good to see kids at work :)
Overall, I am very impressed & happy with the school and Sailaja, their teacher.

My daughter has been going to Sailors since November ’14.
The fact that my daughter is happy at the end of the day is what matters to me.
She is in a safe environment, the teachers are caring, friendly, and communicative.
It was a great decision. Sailors Preschool is an absolutely wonderful experience.
Our daughter loves going to school every day and comes home happy.

She loves to show us the artwork she makes and sing the songs she has learned.
We are very pleased with Sailors and have nothing but a positive experience.

My wife and I are very happy with Sailors preschool and family child care. Our son has been going there regularly for an year now and he is very happy and well taken care of there. He looks forward to going there every day. Ms. Sailaja, who runs the daycare, goes out of her way to ensure each child’s unique needs are met. She is very kind and caring. Our son is a picky eater and she takes extra care to see he eats as well as possible. She created a special «potty training kit» for our son to help potty train him. She sends us updates during the day while we are at work about our son through texts and sometimes videos and is happy to talk at length with us about any concerns or questions we may have about our son. There are many fun activities that my son does everyday at the preschool through which he has learned a lot. We are very grateful to Ms. Sailaja for her exceptional care for our son. We would highly recommend this preschool and childcare facility to anyone.

Sailors Pre School is the BEST!!! We are extremely happy with Sailors. Sailaja and her team are very hands-​on, very involved and take really good care of the kids. You can clearly see that they all love being there and enjoy what they are doing. Sailaja is extremely passionate about children and you can see it :)
My 3 year old son loves going to school. He has adjusted so well and so quickly, credit definitely goes to Sailaja! She makes them feel welcome and loved :). I feel this preschool has a perfect combination of home care setting and a great curriculum. She makes they do a lot of educational and fun filled activities. I definitely feel my son is learning a lot, growing well here and is totally happy here :)
She also provides yummy home cooked food to them :) She provides a good update about his day and is also honest about how much they ate and how they slept etc. She listens very well too and is very professional and friendly.
I am happy to have chosen Sailors preschool for my sons care. I can definitely say that my son is in great hands!

My son has been going to Sailors for the past 4 months and we are very happy with the daycare. We moved to Dublin from Fremont last year and tried a well known Montessori School here as well as another daycare, but were not satisfied till we found Sailors. It is run by a very caring and knowledgeable director. She really understands children’s behavior and psychology and works with the parents for ensuring that the child’s needs are met in a loving way. She is flexible and can work around parent’s work schedules. She runs the daycare in a professional yet caring manner. The children all seem very attached to her. My son looks forward to going to the daycare. The daycare director has really helped my son overcome some behavioral issues he had. She serves nutritious home cooked meals and tries to make sure all the kids have eaten as well as possible.

We explored the day care options around Dublin & Pleasanton area and got excellent feedback from my community friends on Sailaja’s Sailors.
After initial conversations we felt that Sailors might be the best place to start and we enrolled our 3year old daughter, 6 months back.
It’s a clean, organized facility with outside play area. Sailaja is caring, passionate, love kids, understand child’s needs and regularly provide us the feedback.
Learning wise, our daughter learned reading & writing Alphabets. Singing songs like 50states, Continents and others. Learned about ocean animals, vegetables and can do fundamental math’s.
Regularly engaged in craft works and our daughter safely keep them. Apart from learning, we have seen our kid’s development in communication & social skills. With Sailaja’s guidance and help our daughter was potty trained within 2weeks of joining.
Healthy and homemade food is provided and very flexible on timings.
We are very happy to recommend Sailors.

We are extremely happy with Sailors Preschool. I was amazed how quickly he adjusted to the new preschool. I really think he learns a lot with the activities. I am amazed at how quickly his vocabulary is improving as well.
I am very impressed with the lunch options and super happy that my son likes different foods and become more adventurous. My son loves broccoli and other veges now :-)
Sailaja is very honest with us and never gives standard responses and say everything is fine. Ever since the first day she would tell us if he did not have food properly that day and or if he had any accidents with his potty training etc.
I would gladly recommend Sailors to anyone!

I had been searching long for a home daycare/​Pre-​school around Dublin for my then 21 month old son. I walked into Sailor’s daycare which was the last one on my list, and was so impressed with how passionate Sailaja was about her job and the kids that I made an instant connection and enrolled my son. Turns out it was one of the best decisions I have taken as we are very satisfied with how our son is progressing. Sailors is a very loving and nurturing home facility for kids to learn and grow. My son had separation anxiety when he first started. Sailaja gave him a lot of attention and showered such love and care that my son felt very secure and comfortable on the second day itself. It was miraculous for us, as we had put him in two daycares much earlier and had to pull him out as it was very traumatic for him to adjust.
Sailaja is also a very knowledgeable care giver who has a very good understanding of children’s psychology. She is very good at dealing with tantrums. She is very keen about moulding a child’s personality than just focus on curriculum. I have personally seen many instances where she is excellent at teaching kids patience, sharing, helping each other, encouraging leadership among kids and instilling responsibility in them. She has the ability to recognize and appreciate the special trait of each child and focus on improving it. At the same time, she is very straight forward and honest with parents about any issues the child might be having. To me, the ability to identify these nuances of each child is very important.
Some quick points about Sailors:
* Very clean facility.
* They have nice play structures in the side yard where kids can have some outdoor play.
* Lots of developmental toys for toddlers.
* Craft day once a week.
* Sailaja gives an update about how the day went, mentions any new things my son did or learnt that day.
* Sailaja’s amazing patience :)
* Their very friendly and well behaved dog Kiara!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this preschool/​daycare. From the minute I walked in, I felt the connection Sailaja has with the children. She provides the love and understanding they need in order to feel secure enough to explore and engage. I specifically love how intune Sailaja is with the needs of each child. Because of the age range of the children who attend, it can often be difficult to plan a comprehensive curriculum, but Sailaja is able to adapt each activity to meet the developmental goals each individual child is working towards. It is obvious the children love Sailaja just by witnessing how much respect they have for her. I truly feel Sailaja’s experience plays a huge part in her ability to connect with each child both on a personal level and through education. She is always interested in furthering her own education and stays up to date with licensing regulations. I am shocked each week to see how much progress these kiddos are making. In addition, this preschool/​daycare is great for helping children build both speech and language skills as well as social emotional skills. The children are encouraged to use their words and given tools to communicate effectively with each other. They are able to build their own confidence and identity, allowing them to take pride in their achievements. Finally, it is a fun place to be and I look forward to my weekly visits! Sailaja is energetic and truly loves the work she does, which is apparent in the children’s excitement to learn and engage in each days activities.
On a side note, the preschool/​daycare is clean, YAY! There are child sized tables and chairs, bookshelves and independent activity bins within the children’s reach. Each child has their own mat for nap time and access to toilets and a sink (although she does change diapers too). Outside there is a nice side yard full of jungle gyms, dramatic play houses and sensory activities.
All in all this is an amazing preschool/​daycare that any child would be lucky to attend!

My son went to Sailor’s preschool for a year.
He loved it there. There were so many fun activities.
He learnt all the 50 states, 7 continents, math and also reading.
Oh…by the way he is 4yrs old when he left Sailor’s :)
