Schools in El Sobrante, CA

“I went here when I was a kid for a few years and I still remember how amazing it was 20 years later. I remember the play ground, the teachers, the castle, picture day, the snack times, painting, and more. I am so happy I attended this pre school and from a first hand perspective would highly recommend it. Thank you to everyone that taught me as a little!!! Now graduating from UC Berkeley '23!”

“My son has been going to Little Bloom Academy for over a year now and I absolutely love it! When he first started (at 1.5 years old), he had extreme attachment issues, non verbal, and not really meeting developmental milestones. After a few weeks with Ms. Emy, my son was able to cope with me leaving. We were able to go to parties or family outings without him being attached to my hip. Not to mention his verbal communication improved dramatically!! My son was able to say what he wanted in English AND Spanish using simple words. He met all of his developmental milestones as well within just a few months! Now a year later, my son is fully potty trained (thanks to Ms. Emy and Mr. Jay for having him in undies since he turned 2), having amazing socialization skills, speaks full sentences in 2 languages, knows how to spell his name and can even count to 15 in 2 languages. My son loves learning and loves all his friends! It's clear that Ms. Emy and Mr. Jay truly love their jobs. They are open communicators and make suggestions based on a students individual progress/needs. Yes, they can be blunt at times however, I would rather have someone advocating for my son based on what they observe instead of someone just blindly agreeing with my decisions because I'm the mom. Little Bloom Academy is the PERFECT place if you value conversational feedback, structure, and Montessori ideology. I truly recommend coming here to literally everyone I know. We will forever appreciate you Ms. Emy and Mr. Jay!!!”

“This school is absolutely amazing. The teachers are incredible. The owner is kind and accommodating. Was surprised that they even have a bad review, but then saw that the person who gave that bad review only gives bad reviews. Figures. They really prepared my son for elementary school. I really cannot thank them enough.”

“This school was the best educational start we chose for our daughter, I just have to thank everyone for the love and dedication they gave to our daughter!! Thank you so much for everything from the heart”
