Parent Reviews
I want to take this time to express how grateful I am for my daughter’s education. My daughter began at Harbor UCLA Children’s Center KinderCare on March 9, 2010 she was only three years old. My daughter loved going to school on a daily basis and would miss her teachers during the weekend, it means a lot to a parent who has to work everyday and feels comfortable leaving their child with these gentle, loving and educated women. The whole staff has been amazing and a special thank you to Ms. Monica in the Kindergarten class. My hat goes off to you; my family and I are extremely satisfied with the style, quality, and consistency you have in teaching young children. Today was our daughter’s first day of school, my wife and I were extremely nervous. Our princess had always been in a smaller learning environment and here she was going, to this huge new school. Luckily, today was a short day and she was going to be off from school early. When we picked her up my wife and I walked over to her teacher and introduced ourselves. The teacher then asked us, what school she came from?” my wife said from Harbor UCLA Children’s Center KinderCare. The teacher then said “your daughter is really smart, keep up the good work and do not stop doing what you have been doing.” As my wife and I are walking through the huge playground, tears began coming down her face she was saying “omg what are we going to do without Ms. Monica, and the rest of KinderCare?…look at how much they have helped us with our daughter. I could not wait to come back to work and tell someone about this incredible experience. I whole heartedly know that KinderCare is the best thing that has happened to our family, I truly recommend this school to all my friends and family.
My son has been going here since the beginning of the year. This school is very convenient for me, as it is walking distance from work. You need to be buzzed in to gain entry into the school, a nice safety measure. Overall, the school is bright and colorful, everything is nicely labeled, there are family pictures everywhere and, most importantly, the children are happy and well-mannered!!! This is a nice, clean facility, and the teachers are all really nice and easy to talk with.
