I can’t say enough about how much we’ve enjoyed our time at Kalinka Preschool and Child Care. We enrolled our son when he was 14 months old, and now at 3 years old he is truly thriving under Ms. Julia’s care. We appreciate that Kalinka focuses on letting children be children rather than pushing academics too early. Ms. Julia incorporates Montessori principles and child-led activities, supporting each child in growing their confidence, independence, and curiosity both physically and mentally. Our son has learned far more this year than we ever expected. He’s explored planets, animals, letters, music, reading, sensory play, and so much more. As a very energetic and hyperactive 3-year-old, he really benefits from guidance and structure, and we’re grateful that Ms. Julia has thoughtfully tailored routines to support him. Another thing we love is how the school celebrates every accomplishment and holiday together. It truly feels like one big family where every child is supported and included. We’ve also loved seeing the other children grow and develop alongside our son , it’s been such a heartwarming part of our experience. Although the schedule is flexible, we’ve learned that consistency is important so each child can get the most out of Kalinka’s daily rhythm. We highly recommend Kalinka Preschool and Child Care and are incredibly thankful for the impact it has had on our son.
