Schools near Cotati, CA

“My daughter has absolutely loved her time at CRPCNS so far. Being a part of a co-op has given us a much needed sense of community after the last few years. Parents of "covid babies" can probably all relate to the desperate need for community, not just for their children, but for themselves too.

As far as the school goes, it has far exceeded my expectations. My daughter has so much fun at school every day. Her teachers are so gentle and engaging. They do food tastings, so many sensory projects, music, and more. The students go on monthly field trips to a local farm, as well as multiple other field trips all throughout the year. They also have class parties through the year and monthly playgroups outside of class.

One of the joys of being in a co-op is building relationships with the teachers and other parents. I trust who my child is with everyday and I have the opportunity to check in on her progress. I love getting to work in her class one day a week and be actively involved in her first education experience. She and I are both building memories and friendships that I expect to last a lifetime.”

“Enrolled during the blast from the past promotion late last year and am happy with the place. Ample parking, nice front desk staff and relatively long operating hours.”

“We had such a wonderful experience at The Learning Experience. After a tough time at a previous daycare, we came here looking for support and we truly found it. From the very beginning, the teachers and staff made us feel welcome and cared for. Our son was so well taken care of and genuinely happy to go every day, which as a parent, brought me such peace of mind.
He moved through three different classrooms during his time there, and every teacher he had was amazing, caring, attentive, and nurturing. The communication from the centre was excellent, and we always felt informed and included. Most importantly, we knew our child was safe, happy, and thriving.
We only left because we moved, and it was genuinely heartbreaking to say goodbye. The entire team felt like family to us. We’re so grateful for everything and would highly recommend The Learning Experience.”

“Fantastic area! We came for dock diving while voiding Santa Rosa. Michael was very kind. They were very accommodating with their schedulingThe pool was very clean and the set up flowed really well for jumping dogs. 10/10 would go again. I forgot my phone in the car so no photos D:”

“Tiny Treasures is the best preschool to send your children! We’ve been a Montecito TTP family for 3 going on 4 years. Sara, Beth and all the teachers have been wonderful. TTP has a great, structured learning environment with a good balance of free, creative play. My kids attend full time and usually don’t want to leave at pick up :)”

“The school is a wonderful place. Rhio and her staff have taught generations of my family. I wouldn’t bring my children anywhere else. The best Montessori in the county!!”

“Mt Taylor is a well considered preschool they go beyond the limits to care of your child. My daughter has developed and grown through her years ready for her next chapter in TK. Im so thankful for Slivia Maria, Martha, and Maya for there never ending support.”

“Very friendly teachers. The children do lots of activities and I can tell the kids are learning and building social skills, and getting outdoor exercise. Love this place!”

“We love Achievers so much. I do not have a worry while my son is at there child care facility. They are so communicative through there procare app. I have access to message staff at anytime and they always respond so quickly. Always sending me pictures of my 2.5 yr old through out his day. Achievers is so flexible, accommodating, understanding of different family types and different childrens need for that matter. My son is thriving at Achievers daycare and school happy at drop off, always happy and willing to share about his day at pickup. I could not be happier with our choice of 1st day care environment for my son. I did not have to settle for me needs and wants for my child at Achievers.❤️”

“My son enjoyed his time here so much! The teachers and team were amazing, and the facilities were clean and well kept. The Big Kids Club program there is a lot of fun and the activities in the summer were always a highlight!”

“When we moved out of the city it was hard for us to find placement for our youngest in a preschool, so we went with the pretty and shiny local preschool that all the kids in the neighborhood went to. It was rough.
Every morning I had to pep talk our son to get him to go to school.
He was miserable. I was miserable. Our family was miserable.
And then gratefully there was an opening at Children's Corner and we finally got in.
It has been an absolute game changer.
The school is wonderful.
The teachers are wonderful.
The administration is wonderful.
The environment is wonderful.
I should have reviewed the school sooner but kept forgetting until this morning when our 3-year-old was super upset that he wasn't going to school today. He loves it there.
We had reduced his school days at the old school to 4 days per week to minimize the stress of being there and my husband and I have been coordinating our work schedules to make this work.
And now our son is genuinely disappointed on Mondays when he doesn't go to school.
Children's Corner is exactly what a preschool should be an we're incredibly grateful to be a part of it.”

“After looking at plenty of options and having a horrible experience with a different in home provider, we decided on KinderCare RP and our 1.5 yr old has been going there since Jan 2023 (at just shy of 6 months) and routinely 4-5 days a week since September and I cannot say enough good things about the center, the Administration and all the Teachers! They are truly phenomenal and getting real time updates eases this mamas anxiety. They are attentive to all the children and communicate quickly and effectively to parents. Alex has done a great job ensuring the Center runs smoothly and is a great experience no only for the little ones but for the families as well. Our son loves going "to school" and he is so much fun. His development has also exploded since he started going routinely. The variety of food has also opened up our little guys food options and choices and he is willing to try anything we give him at home. My family is too far to watch him and I now consider the staff at KinderCare RP part of our extended family.Thanks Team!”

“We absolutely recommend La Petite Academy in Santa Rosa for anyone who’s looking for the best care for their little ones. My son was in their infant room from 4 months - 12 months. The only reason we left was due to moving across the country (I cried at pick up on his last day bc I was so sad we were leaving here). We absolutely LOVED all of the teachers there, Ms Janet and Ms Katarene were his main teachers and they were phenomenal. My son loved spending his early mornings with Ms Melissa and Ms Amita. He also loved learning lots of pickleball skills from Ms Kathy. I couldn’t have asked for a better daycare staff to take care of my son.”

“Wonderful. Really great staff. Very nice, very helpful, very accomedationg and patient. Didnt feel rushed and wi was informed clearly.of everything.i appreciate there compasión very much .”

“I recently had the opportunity to enroll my child in this exceptional infant daycare, and I am thrilled to share my positive experience. The caregivers at this daycare are truly exceptional. They possess a wealth of knowledge in early childhood development, and it is evident in the way they interact with the infants. Their nurturing and attentive approach create a safe and loving environment for the little ones to thrive.The facilities are top-notch, providing a clean and stimulating space for the infants to explore and learn. The age-appropriate toys and activities are thoughtfully chosen to promote their development. Communication is key, and the staff at this daycare excels in keeping parents informed about their child's daily activities, milestones, and any concerns that may arise. The dedication of the caregivers, the exceptional facilities, and the overall positive atmosphere make it a standout choice. I am grateful to have found such a wonderful place for my child's early years.”
