Bright Beginnings Preschool of La Verne, La Verne | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

This school was formally KinderCare Learning Center. It now has a new owner (Bright Beginnings Preschool) and the inside has been completely revamped and provides developmentally appropriate centers and activities for each age group. It is a fun, clean, creative and peaceful environment that is warm and welcoming. I visited this school when it was still KinderCare, and now Bright Beginnings Preschool has done a great job with making the school child friendly! The school has only been open one month so there are not many children yet, but it seems like it is going to grow into an outstanding, fun place for children to learn and grow!!!

When you walk in you will be welcomed with background fun children’s music and happy, caring and smiling staff. I was worried about the transition but the Executive Director Jenni really made me feel at home on my visit and made sure all of my questions and concerns were addressed. They provide well organized lesson plans, meal menus, and schedules. You can really notice that the teacher’s genuinely care about their job and the children. The teachers are trained in Early Childhood Education and some are continuing their education to be teachers.

They have many fun and developmentally appropriate indoor and outdoor activities planned for the children throughout the day, so you know your child will be playing and learning while you are at work. They also provide nutritious meals and snacks and even have the children help with light clean up of lunch to teach them to be helpful and responsible.

I highly recommend this growing new preschool! You will feel at home with them!

Con: staff for 2 year old class is not inviting and doesn’t speak to my child. Does not say hello even after a whole weekend. My child is starting to feel the negative energy which is tough for a parent. The staff may need a course on customer service because that’s just strange! We have to entrust our children for 8 hours or more to teachers and that’s not a good feeling I have when I walk out the door and have met and seen 5 teachers pass by without any acknowledgment that we are there.
Pro: I’m still trying to hope that this post will help because I love a good second chance. I’ve spoken to other parents and everyone says similar things. Want a better friendly experience for my child and I!
Beside the bad, there is a lot of good I have witnessed from the afternoon crew. Way more friendly and willing to say hello and have a great day etc. children aren’t always a joy sometimes it’s tough but a little smile and positivity between parents and preschool teachers and aides go a long way!

Edit update: The teacher that was awful left a few months ago and it looks like there have been new staff added which has given the whole place a more positive experience for my child.

Response to Kyara’s review…
I am a parent at bright beginnings preschool and yesterday at drop off I witnessed this mom curse out, threaten and use homophobic slurs towards our director Ms Kobi, my child has gone through the potty training program with Ms Monique who successfully potty trained my child,and in order to be potty trained at this center your child does need to only be in underwear. Ms Kobi was relaying this information to this woman and the woman began to get more aggressive as the conversation went on. From my point of view the wrong doing here is referring to a human being the way you did, bright beginnings was simply following their procedures. You enroll your child as a potty trainer they’re going to treat them as such.
