Good Samaritan Preschool is a warm, nurturing, and caring community with a family feel, operating since 1985 as an outreach of the Good Samaritan UMC. Located across from Apple HQ and next to 99 Ranch, it is a play-based, developmental program where children learn best through play, exploration, and some academics to ensure they are school-ready. The school offers a wide variety of schedules, enrichment classes, and after-school and summer programs for school-agers, with many children attending from infancy through PreK. The teachers are described as amazing, extraordinary, patient, kind, passionate, and genuinely caring. They go above and beyond, educating children in creative and fun ways and meeting each child where they are. The environment is stimulating, interactive, supportive, safe, inclusive, and intentional. Classrooms are bright and welcoming, with individual classrooms and outdoor spaces, and the facility is clean and well-maintained. The program includes regular gym activities, music and dance classes, Chinese and Spanish lessons, and special summer activities like foam parties, bounce houses, bike days, and water play. Detailed daily reports and frequent photos and updates via an app provide excellent communication. Families feel fortunate and grateful, trusting the community whole-heartedly as a home away from home. The broader network of parents is close-knit and mutually supportive. The preschool provides a strong academic, social, and emotional foundation, with children thriving, growing in confidence, and being excited to attend. It is highly recommended as a phenomenal, loving, and nourishing gem for early childhood.
This is a response to Jenny M. We have been bringing in our girls to this daycare for the last 3 years and the staff all do a great job. Our girls learn a lot and love going to class. We feel like the staff is part of our family and anyone reading this should know you can trust bringing in your child to this daycare.
