Little Scholars Child Care Learning Center - Yorba Linda, California

I would like to start this review out by saying how much our children enjoy Little Scholars. With all the events they host (see images), filed trips and engaging activities, it is truly a delight to see our children not only grow but develop in a nurturing environment. When our 3 year old comes home all excited ready to practice writing (her name, learning colors and tracing), my wife and I are excited she's excited. Our baby daughter is actually our second child to attend Little Scholars and it's the same great people and clean facility.

The schools directors, Aracely, Taryn and Alyssa are just so polite and hospitable. I have even had great conversations with the owner that made me feel comfortable and welcoming. The staff are always on top of updates of our children. I get notifications to my phone with naps, food times, and potty breaks.

I am not one post or write reviews, but when I have a good experience I feel it is warranted. If I have a bad experience somewhere, I don't post, tweet or complain, I just never go there again.

I have been fully satisfied with the quality of learning experience Little Scholars has provided and still do for our most precious little people in the world, our children.

Keep up the great work! It's good to still know people care about our children, because they are our future!

Our grandson has been going to Little Scholars in Yorba Linda since preschool and he is now in second grade.

It is a wonderful place for young children. It is clean and bright and well equipped to keep the kiddos engaged. The staff are warm, caring and communicate well with parents and grandparents.

They provide snacks and meals, and have a wonderful summer program with lots of fun activities and field trips.

We’re so glad that our two younger grandchildren have recently become part of the Little Scholars family too!

We’ve been using little scholars for quite a few years now, and they are absolute life savers. Not only is the staff super nice, they make sure my child is fed, happy, and educated as they provide homework time during after school care. I specifically chose this facility for their early hours, as sometimes my work calls for early start times. They get my child to school on time, and pick him up after if needed! They’re great at communicating and will answer any questions within a reasonable time window (usually within the same hour). Needless to say, we’ve been very happy & blessed with the wonderful staff!

For generations, our family has trusted this preschool, and it continues to exceed our expectations. Deborah, the owner, is truly the heart and soul of the school, supported by a team of amazing teachers and directors. The environment is warm and welcoming, with plenty of fun activities for the kids. There’s no question that future generations of our family will continue to send their children here.

There really aren't enough words to fully encapsulate the amazingness that is Little Scholars. Both of my children started at 5 months old, and continue to grow and excel there.

I will admit, with my first child, I dreaded the thought of having to go back to work and leave her at a daycare. For the whole week prior, I was on the verge of tears, and contemplated my return from maternity leave. The day I dropped her off, I had a knot in my stomach as I drove away. And then, a couple hours later, I received a picture on their App of my little baby with the biggest smile I had ever seen. All of my worries just melted away, and the smiles haven't stopped.

With each passing day, my fondness for the school, it's Admin Team, and the teachers grew. Just as my daughter's did. It got to the point where she would happily reach for them as I handed her over for the day. And now, my son does the same exact thing.

I feel so lucky to have found somewhere I trust wholeheartedly. A place where I can say for certain, that they love my kids just as much as my kids love them. A place that I have also grown to love so much, that I will admit, I get teary eyed any time I think of the day my children will grow older and need to move on to the next step in schooling.

As a parent, you question a lot of what you do. You wonder if you're doing the right thing. You wonder if you made the best decisions and choices for your child. Choosing Little Scholars for our family is definitely a decision I've never questioned.

If you're looking for a great place for your child, your search should end here.

My daughter has been attending Little Scholars for almost a year now and we absolutely LOVE this school. She currently has Miss Toni & Miss Natalie and she adores them. Their app makes it easy to know what's going on with her all day, we get photos and updates throughout the day, and her teachers even reach out to check on her when she's out sick. I know they have a ton of kids, and what they do is HARD work, but they truly make it feel like my daughter is a top priority to them and there is nothing better as a Mom, than knowing that your kids are with people who truly care. Thank you to the entire staff, for being so communicative, friendly, and loving all the time.

TERRIBLE place ! UNACCEPTABLE ❗ I would give this place zero Stars or actually a negative amount of stars but you have to put at least one star in order to place a review the absolutely had to place this review because I don't want any other parents to go through what we've gone through here. A couple of days ago when my stepson was picked up from school his mom noticed a large fist-size bruise on his face Not only was it a giant bruise but it also had a scar in the middle of it which meant that it had to be done by something hard. When she asked the teacher on duty what happened he said he had no idea no incident report was sent to us no incident report was even made I myself I'm an elementary school teacher so I know that this is against all of the rules all teachers and daycare assistance are mandated reporters and have to report these incidents not just to the school but to the parents! The very next day I went with his mother to the school and we talked to the director she said there was a kid they're named Zachary who had been harassing other kids pushing them around and saying words like kill and die we asked what had been done about it and the lady said she talked to the parent numerous times but the parent was not doing anything about it that is literally what she said to us then she said that the teacher that was there did not let her know anything had happened which is also completely unacceptable the bruise was so big if you were standing across the street you could still see it on our child's face this is absolutely insane I can't actually believe that this really happened but it did and it did to us. I went back to talk to my stepson and before we could even leave the building the director of the program was overlapping and ordering herself a bagel even though she had never provided us with any answers and never helped us in any way shape or form just laughed it off this is absolutely Ludacris and if you care about your child which most people do I would suggest you never take your child to this place. Like I said I'm an elementary school teacher I've been a music teacher for 10 years and I know what we are required to do. When is school sees a large bruise on a child's face they don't know if it was the parents they don't know if it was another child they don't know if the kid did it to themselves they have no idea and that is why they are required to report it they're definitely supposed to report it to us being the parents how could they just see something this big and not say anything even if it was a little bruise they should have said something but this was a gigantic bruise that took up half of his face I absolutely had to write this review because I don't want anyone else to go through what we went through we immediately pulled our child out of this place he is attending a new daycare center after school we took him out the very next day!

Terrible experience, and absolute worst out of the five preschools visited in the area.

The director giving the tour was very condescending throughout the visit and was defensive from the start from basic questions. Not only that, she said was visibly sick and only confirm after shaking my hand and touching my child. She did not wear a mask and didn't care that she could get the children sick. It was truly unbelievable and inconsiderate coming from a program director and a role model for staff members.

Also, the teachers there are very young and appear to be inexperienced. And the layout is terrible (check out where they have their trash).

I ended the tour immediately within the first two questions based on the unprofessional responses. It's hard enough to select a school for your loved ones and people can be good hiding who they really are during a first impression. I guess I can be thankful that she didn't hide her true self.
