ABC Time Home Preschool

My son have been to Felicia's for 3 years, and she was AMAZING! He learned so much from potty training to reading! I am so glad I met her and I could be 100% confident to leave my son to Felicia. I totally recommend ABC Time Preschool.

Olivenhain Country Preschool

4.0

Overall great facility but the staff seemed to turnover quite a bit there in the short six months my son attended. Kids definitely get dirty there, so if you're a clean freak this is not the place for you. Carrie is amazing and truly cares about the children's well-being!
