La Costa Valley Preschool & Kindergarten

Our daughter has been going to La Costa Valley Preschool since she was just 2 years old, she is now 5 years old, so advanced and ready move to elementary school. She loved it there! The teachers are all so caring and creative, it help any parent feel at ease leaving their child in preschool. Our daughter always had so many news to tell us about her "busy" day: who was her friend today, what they learn at circle time, showed her artwork and crafts. And, of course, Field trips, community helpers visits gived her moments that she will remember for a long time. I would recommend La Costa Valley Preschool & Kindergarten to any parent looking for a safe and friendly Preschool!

Both of my boys (3 years old and 5 ½ years old) attend La Costa Valley Preschool and Kindergarten. My youngest is enrolled in the Caterpillar 2 class (this is his first year) and my oldest is enrolled in Kindergarten (this is his third year). Words cannot express the impact that La Costa Valley has had on my children. Both of my sons have grown so much both academically and emotionally. The social emotional learning environment that La Costa fosters emphasizing the importance of learning through play is like no other. My youngest looks forward to going to school and sings and tells me all about the fascinating things he is learning in Ms. Cindy's class. His speech has gotten clearer and he loves sharing and interacting with his friends. My oldest is in Kindergarten and has Ms. Joan. Ms. Joan is one of the most amazing teachers I have ever met. The small class size, her creativity and time she is able to dedicate to each child has helped my son flourish. His reading and writing surprise me each and every day. I feel confident that he will be more than ready for the 1st grade! I recommend this school to everyone I meet! It is truly a gem!

Me and my girlfriend both have kids here and we love it. Everyone is so nice and our kids are so happy here. Honestly I can't think of anything that needs to be improved except maybe communication but I'm not really complaining.

"Choosing LCVPK for our daughter is one of the best decisions we ever made for her. Our daughter is flourishing beyond our expectations. She is in a small class environment and getting individualized instruction. The class is such a happy, positive, kind, compassionate environment. Our daughter is a happy, confident learner fully ready for academic success. This is all due to the magic of Ms. Joan!! The kids absolutely adore her, and she helps them grow and develop beyond measure. She celebrates every students' successes and this helps them to become confident, eager learners. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Ms. Joan!!!!"

As a child development expert and a grandma, whose three out of four grandchildren attend the school at the present, I would like to take the time and tell everyone about this amazing program. For me the measure to a quality early childhood education program starts with the happiness and eagerness of the young children to come to school, see their teachers and friends, and be excited to learn. No doubt! Children are happy at the La Costa Valley Preschool and kindergarten programs. My grandchildren have remarkable teachers who provide them with the excitement to explore, ask questions, wonder, ponder and PLAY! La Costa Valley’s teachers and staff are highly trained to address the whole child and follow the child’s lead when planning their lessons. They value relationship-building and understand the importance of social-emotional foundation. The teachers help children learn and problem solve, understand their own emotions, be kind, develop empathy, read, write, recognize and manipulate numbers and shapes, inquire and investigate, draw, paint and create, dance and move. I love the school and I am very happy to see my grandchildren grow and flourish! Dr. Shulamit Ritblatt
