Schools in Bakersfield, CA

“This school has such a great curriculum. I have two kids that I have and had enrolled here. My oldest graduated this June and absolutely loved this school. She had enjoyed their summer program which included water days, had a wonderful monthly calendar of fun days, had a visit from the snow cone guy. The school had a fun PE. She loved all the characters especially having to receive a bubbles birthday Party that she had won at the car show. The graduation was a little hot but the kids enjoyed receiving the attention. Currently my daughter goes to kindergarten and is the only child that is able to write her name all because of the TLE preschool 2 teaching them to write.

My youngest daughter started June of last year. She started with Twaddler but had a wonderful group of teachers that helped potty train her and moved her up to the next class. She also has learned so much from the curriculum and has had wonderful teachers. She loves most of her teachers and loves the steam program and learning both Spanish and English. I would definitely recommend this program and the teachers, and admins that work at this school.”

“It's been a very inviting, calming, loving, safe environment to work in. The owners make each of us staff members feel special on our birthdays. The classrooms are beautiful and the outdoor area has sun coverage. Large windows let natural light into each classroom. Indoor plants are in each corner waiting for children to water and care for them. The garden is a perfect place for children to learn about what they eat. The children have so many hands on experiences. Mindfulness yoga is practiced weekly. Music time is a joy. Heathy eating is a learned skill here. Fresh fruit is daily prepped and eaten by the children. Vegetables from the school garden are eaten and cooked with excitement. Fresh herbs provide the children new experiences using all their senses in the garden. Beautiful art is created and sent home so parents can enjoy their children's work daily. Life cycles are displayed to invite children to learn. I am thankful to be a part of this kind unified team.”

“A must try spot!

The kids are fantastic and the food was very good. The portion size blew me away, no leaving hungry from here. They are open for breakfast from 8:30-10am Tuesday-Thursday.”

“My baby girl started at Cal Ivy in November of 2021 at 3 months. She is now almost 4 years old and still attends and is thriving. My son started at Cal Ivy as well in July 2023 also at 3 months and he is now 2 years old and also thriving. The staff, teachers and management are outstanding. They always keep you in the know. They update you daily on the app used to communicate and check in- procare. My kids are so happy to go to daycare everyday. The teachers are so knowledgeable, educated in their field and have treated my babies like their own. I am forever grateful to Cal Ivy for helping me raise my children into respectable, intelligent, and caring individuals. It is well worth the money in knowing your children are well taken care of and loved. I would highly recommend Cal Ivy Prep.”

“As the first person in my family to graduate a university. I understand the importance of a solid education. I currently have my boys enrolled in this outstanding school.”

“My son is moving on to kindergarten next year and we are so sad to leave Wonder Window. My daughter attended Wonder Window as a preschooler and my son has been attending since he was 2 years old. They both loved it. We loved it for them. The staff are so kind and patient towards the kids. My children were delicately and lovingly taught bible stories and lessons. Both grew to have a love for God that was nourished outside of church and home. In addition, they were academically educated and completely prepared for kindergarten. I cannot recommend Wonder Window enough as a solution to your daycare/preschool needs.”

“After moving from the East Coast, we spent months searching for the right childcare center for our two active toddler boys. We visited several places but nothing felt quite right until we discovered Lil Explorers.

From day one, the staff understood our boys' energy levels and embraced their adventurous spirits rather than trying to contain them. The teachers are warm, patient, caring, and genuinely invested in each child's development. Our sons come home excited to tell us about their day, which speaks volumes about the positive environment they've created.

The facility is clean, well-organized, and designed with active toddlers in mind. There's plenty of space for running around, engaging activities that keep busy minds occupied, and a structured routine that works perfectly for our family's needs.

TLDR: Highly recommend for families with energetic toddlers who need a nurturing yet dynamic environment.”

“I was very impressed at how well they took care of my daughter and made her feel like family. This preschool is very helpful in my daughters schooling and I like that they let the kids be kids and also learn before going to School. I recommend the preschool every chance I get!”

“I barely registered my 18month old son today and I love the staff already I spoke to Jennifer for the past couple weeks and she has been so patient with all of my new mom questions and concerns she has treated me so kind and welcoming I can not wait for my son to begin and start socializing and learning new things Jennifer made it an easy decision and really took the time to help me she called me back in a timely manner. I was their for a tour and a child had a fever and she was really concerned and made sure the teacher checked it multiple times before calling the guardian I already feel at ease with this new transition coming soon.”

“The Toddler room is amazing! The teachers are always making sure each child's needs are met. I haven't ever worried about safety of My child. This team ROCKS!!! Such a warming place to send your child and know they are in good hands!”
