Great Beginnings For Little Kids

I love this school for my pre-​schooler! They really work with the kids academically…4 years olds reading, adding and subtracting. I was blown away by what my 4 year old child can do with the instructors here. My son loves it, makes great friends and the prices are the best in the SCV!

My oldest daughter started there when she was 3 and attended through Kinder– she absolutely loved it. She is now 7 and no longer attends, but her sister and brother both go there now and are enjoying the activities, learning new skills and learning to play with others. Summer activities are wonderful! The staff has always been polite, professional and easy to talk to.

Second week of enrollment and so far so good.
Friendly staff, appears to be organized, clean, well maintained, professional, parking is plenty, keeps you inform of bad behavior/​eating habits/​or unusual behavior that our little ones do. Good security/​am director is nice/​location is easy to find. I was impressed that this preschool had quietness right before nap time. I never here crying screaming yelling or fighting from kids. All the kids appear to be well behaved. I will continue to provide an update as weeks and months go by.
At the end of the day; I have a good feeling when I leave after dropping of my child. Everyone is nice and acknowledges your child and parent. To be continue…
P. s. Prices are decent and affordable

I have head 3 kids attend here. They all love it, teachers are great.

In response to the Director — Your sick policy was the least of my worries. Propping the bottle in my daughters mouth while she was laying down asleep was never addressed appropriately, and still is not being addressed even in this review. That situation, is NOT taken out of context.

I took a chance on this daycare because of its convenient location as far as my commute to work goes. Now, its not as fancy as some other daycares and they do not go out of their way to sell themselves but the tuition is reasonable and they provide good value as far as teaching and taking care of my child is concerned.
It’s been well over year and I consider this daycare to be one of my many blessings. My infant is now a toddler. She has progressed through 4 classes and has learned a lot. What is even more important is that the principals and all the staff are caring and kind, and not to just my kid but to my whole family. When I drop my child off in the morning, I am confident that every teacher will do their best to keep her safe. Their job is not an easy one but they do it with great attitudes and love. I really couldn’t ask for more. Thank you Great Beginnings.

As every parent knows, finding the right day care for your child can be very difficult, however, the moment I walked into Great Beginnings back in 2006 I knew I had found the perfect environment for my 15 month old son. The school is very clean, the staff so friendly, warm and inviting. Everyone has a smile on their face, even the children. The school is very well rounded. There is playtime, art time, music and dance. Circle time in Spanish, amazing summertime activities, holiday programs and an exceptional emphasis on education! My oldest son graduated from Kindergarten & my 5 year old son, who started here at 3 months old, is now part of the Kindergarten class. We have thoroughly enjoyed these past 9 years at Great Beginnings. I highly recommend Great Beginnings as your child care provider.

Although it was my first daycare/​preschool, I have to say there are no complaints! Everyone here is amazing!!! My 3 yr old has only been there 8 months, but the things he’s learned with the girls is mind blowing! He has perfected potty training, learned his letters, learned how to write them, interpersonal skills and his vocabulary has sky-​rocketed! He loves being here and playing with his friends! They have song-​singing, dance time, spanish classes and 2 playgrounds that the kids love being outside on. They include lunch and snacks in their already very good price, I don’t know how it gets any better! They are very watchful and aware of the children. I can honestly go on for days… the staff is amazing and my son loves it here. We are sad to be moving away!

My daughter attended Great Beginnings for Kindergarten. She was well prepared for 1^st grade and has done very well. They offer music, dance and art which are wonderful for the children. Every time we pass the school, my daughter waves and says” I miss you Great Beginnings.” Thank you to all the teachers, especially Mrs. Lindsey and Regina the Director.

I have 2 children that attended and attend Great Beginnings (infant room to kindergarden.) The teachers are great and have been the same teachers for the past 6 years, this is not a a school of high turn over. (Something I truly value) All the teachers are kind and caring, go over and beyond what is standard care and make the kids feel welcome. Over the 8 years we have been there improvements are made constantly (new floors, toys, books) always looking for the newest ways to teach the children. Lunch is provided every day and a nap for kids through Pre-​K. They changed the schedule for kindergarden with the children only napping for an hour (our child does not need anything longer) which has worked out well.
Every year they have programs which consist of dance, singing, and music. (Halloween and Christmas), along with Easter egg hunts and graduation. The summer program is fun for kids through kindegarden, entertaining activities such as Finger painting, paper plate art, shaving cream day, bubble shows. petting zoo, and our kids favorite water slide day!
When our son graduated from kindergarden he transferred to public elementary (1^st grade) and had a wonderful transition. He missed the school but was ready and prepared.
I cannot imagine a better school, i started looking 8 years ago and have never heard of a better school. The schools Director is stellar and makes sure all your concerns and wants are met. I would highly recommend Great Beginnings for you childcare needs.
