Bear Valley Academy - Preschool & Kindergarten

I toured 4 or 5 programs in the area, and after leaving BVA, there was no comparison among them all. It was the easiest decision to make! I had just stepped away from teaching for 8 years, and felt like this was hands down the best environment for my daughter to have the engaging experiences she needs. Organization, communication, cleanliness, and compassion are all stellar strengths of this school and staff.

Every contact with the teachers and management has been outstanding. I have both my kids enrolled with one child being there over 2 years now. Everyone is upbeat, positive and supportive. The comfort of having your kids go to such a helpful, engaging, confidence building classroom for four days a week is impossible to put a value on. I actually don't mind paying this bill every month!

What a welcoming, warm, caring, and fun place for children. Our daughter attended preschool in the infant/toddler class - Ms. Paula and Ms. Jackie are very nurturing, patient, kind and helpful. They truly care for the kids and take an active role in teaching through fun and creative activities. The facility is safe and clean, and you are greeted every morning by the Director, Ms. Chelsea, who stands by the door to say hello to everyone (by name!) and answer any questions. Our daughter came home every day so excited to show us the projects she had worked on while in their care. We are really going to miss our friends at the Children's Center (only leaving due to a need for full-time care).

There are so many childcare options in the area but The Children's Center Preschool is hands down the best quality program and has the most caring team! My oldest attended from age 2 through pre-k and my youngest started in the baby blue class. I am constantly amazed at the things they learn, the comments the teachers make about their progress and daily interactions, and the time each staff member takes to ensure each child is loved, nurtured and prayed for. I strongly recommend this program for your child's preschool education! -Lauren Duke

My child began attending The Children's Center in June of 2013. All of her teachers have been invested in making learning fun in a safe and loving environment. She looks forward to going to school and talks about her teachers and friends when she is not there! She participated in the Reading Buddies program and Exploring Arts program and really enjoyed both. As a former teacher, I appreciate the learning opportunities each of these programs present. Overall, we have had a great experience here.
