Parent Reviews
My daughter, Grace, who is 3 and a half years old, recently joined this wonderful preschool after coming from China. Being in a new environment and struggling with English, I was initially worried about her transition. However, I can't express my gratitude enough for the patient and loving teachers at this preschool, who have taken such good care of Grace. The teachers here are incredibly understanding and have been so patient with Grace as she navigates her way through the language barrier. They have created a nurturing and supportive atmosphere, making her feel at home. To my delight, Grace fit in so quickly, and her transition was completely painless, thanks to the teachers' dedication. The cozy and homely environment of the preschool has been such a comfort for us. It feels like a second home for Grace, and I couldn't be happier with the care she receives. The chef prepares fresh and healthy meals for the kids daily, ensuring they have the best nutrition during their time at the preschool. I am also impressed by the teachers' professionalism in early childhood education. Their expertise is evident in the way they engage the kids in various learning activities and foster their overall development. The joy and happiness on the children's faces show how much they love being there. In conclusion, this preschool has been an absolute blessing for my daughter, Grace, and our family. The caring and supportive environment, along with the dedicated teachers, has made her preschool experience truly memorable. I highly recommend this preschool to all parents looking for a nurturing and loving place for their little ones. Thank you to all the teachers and staff for making this preschool a truly special place for our children!
Every Child Bay used to be Every Child Berkeley and now moved to El Cerrito next to the El Cerrito plaza. We joined Every Child when my son was 20 months and now he is 3.5 years old. He made a lot of progress for his social emotion skills which was a big concern for us as well as speech and motor skills. Also, we are so glad that he is able to find true friendship at school. Every Child is a very good and unique inclusive preschool, where they combine the Reggio Emilia approach with G-ESDM approach, a very good fit for both NT kids and kids on ASD spectrum. The program director Dr. Irene Russo is from the famous MIND institute at UC Davis. Teachers are well trained with G-ESDM so that they are able to provide necessary therapy to kids on the spectrum as well as handle behavior challenges and model them in the proper ways. Kids there are able to learn new skills in a naturalistic way and make friends in the group ESDM setting which is good for both NT kids and kids on spectrum.
My son goes joined a pod at Every Child and he loves it. The teachers have a a strong background in education and know how to improve kids social skills, even with all the increased safety regulations due to minimization of virus spread. I feel this is exactly what my son needs, since he is missing school so much. Rooms are super clean, and the outside space is often used to allow children to be social distancing without masks.
