CHRIST CHURCH BY THE SEA CHILDREN'S CENTER

1400 W BALBOA BLVD NEWPORT BEACH, CA

4 mi

Serving our community since 1972. CCCC philosophy focuses on foundational skills that support learning at every stage of life, including: social skill development, thinking skills (inquiry, critical, creative, and problem solving), language skills (listening and speaking), creative self-expression, and learning by doing. Rich learning takes place both indoors and out. As children discover and explore, we facilitate experiences through open-ended questioning, guidance and encouragement. We provide a safe and loving environment for each child’s curiosity and imagination to grow and thrive. Understanding there will be challenges, victories, mistakes, growth, stepping out of their comfort zone, even though they may be afraid at first, and pride when they conquer something they thought they might not be able to do. Children learn to be good friends, to express empathy an compassion, to include everyone, and are able to talk about their feelings, when conflict does arise. Hours Operation Monday- Friday; Preschool 8:30am -12:30 or 8:30-3:30. Our after school programs is from 2:30pm-5:30pm , only picking up from Newport Elementary School.

Parentz View Child Care

3202 Montana Avenue Costa Mesa, CA

Parentz View Child Care is a Large Licensed In Home Family Day Care located in Costa Mesa, in the Mesa Verde housing track. I've been in business for 11 years now. I originally started my daycare after having a bad experience with a Licensed provider where my daughter attended. After that ordeal I quit my job to be able to stay home with her. I felt like there was no way I would trust anyone watching her. Knowing that she wasn't the only child not getting their needs met by a loving "2nd Mom", I knew I'd be making a difference if I started my own. One less child being neglected...that's how I looked at it. Since then, it's grown into a daycare that I am completely proud of, of which Yelp nominated #1 in Orange County out of all Daycare Facilities AND Centers. At Parentz View Child Care we provide all healthy meals which includes Breakfast, Lunch and Afternoon Snack. Not only do I provide nurturing and loving care for their daily needs, but I also provide a preschool curriculum that is fun and has challenging activities that promote all aspects of their development. Unlike a Preschool Center or Montessori, where your child could get lost or unnoticed in the crowded, over filled classrooms, we have maximum 12 children with 2 Child Care Providers. My home has comfortable furniture, cozy nooks and an enriching play room that creates a warm environment for your little ones. When your child comes to my house, they won't just feel like they are going to school or day care, they will feel like they are visiting with family, that just so happens to teach them fun new things throughout the day! Please view many more of my Testimonials on my website at www.parentzview.com

Edgewood Academy – Where there is a Love for Learning! Preschool – Pre-Kindergarten – Kindergarten Edgewood PrePrimary Academy has a 65 year history of local teaching. We proudly offer education for children, aged 2½ through kindergarten. Each child comes to us with a natural curiosity and love for learning. We believe it is our responsibility to nurture this curiosity and help this love grow. Children will realize their greatest potential after they have experienced frequent success in a warm loving and positive environment. In our classrooms and outdoor spaces, children can achieve optimal growth in all areas of the curriculum with one teacher and no more than 12 students in a completely separate classroom designed to enhance each child’s opportunities for growth. The individual teacher remains the single most important factor. Our teachers are full-time professionals. They are trained, experienced and credentialed in early childhood education. Edgewood teachers are always available to their parents and use many recourses to communicate with their students’ parents. Classroom teacher conferences with parents are held three times throughout the year to ensure that all areas of social, emotional and academic development are progressing and continued to be challenged.

25291 Barents Street Laguna Hills, CA

Happy Angels Haven, located in Laguna Hills, is just three blocks from 5 & 405 freeway, and just two easy turns to reach me on Alicia Parkway. Parents like a quick pick-up and drop-off, and so we work tirelessly to make everything as convenient as possible. We offer an inviting, fun-loving, caring, warm, home-like environment for children of all ages. We cover, Laguna Hills, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, Laguna Niguel, and more. We have openings for infant/toddlers at this time and also offer after-school care. For after school care, the child has to be at least 5 years of age in accordance with the licensing capacity. I am a licensed and certified CPR, serving for the last 23 years. I am affiliated with the Children Home Society of America, and Nurses Zone. For my excellent service and cleanliness, I have been complimented for keeping the facility super clean and in compliance of the State and Social Services rules and regulations. There is a very large play area, a separate nursery for newborns, as we can't mingle them with toddlers. We have the largest backyard within the neighborhood with beautiful panoramic view, swings, long tricycle pathway, and unlimited fresh cooked meals every day and all-day long. I don't believe in two snacks and a lunch only, children are growing and constantly need nourishment. We have structured program with variety of activities for our kids like coloring, recognition of alphabets, numbers, colors, shapes, circle time (games and basic general knowledge), dancing hour, bubble party and creative story time which is lots of fun. Kids learn social skills and learn sharing, caring and good manners which parents see in their behavior as they grow. I have excellent references, open days, evenings, and nights for nurses and other graveyard shift parents. I do give daycare presentation after 6:30 p.m. or Saturday morning and share a lot with the parents, so that they get to know what I have to offer. We have also helped many single moms expand their horizons, and take their careers to the next level, giving them better financial opportunity, support and a future. The key is flexibility, as we always urge parents to visit different day care facilities and compare. In childcare, price is always secondary, as the happiness of parents and children comes first. You will not see any kids in the pictures because of our strict privacy policy.

Columbus Grove Daycare is a licensed large in-home family daycare in the heart of Irvine, CA that offers an inviting, nurturing, and warm space for children to grow and develop. Our priorities in preparation for Kindergarten are: academic enrichment, developing fine and gross motor skills through various activities, social and emotional development, and creativity through arts and crafts and music. The in-home daycare facility fosters a safe space through a designated classroom / learning area, custom beds and fitted sheets for nap time, and a spacious outdoor playtime area. Chi (Daycare Owner), who holds an International Montessori Teaching Diploma through the North American Montessori Center, has over 10 years of in-home family daycare experience beginning in 2012. She is licensed to care for 14 children (12 toddler / pre-school aged children + 2 school aged children) with a teaching assistant. All teacher's assistants at Columbus Grove Daycare are current students or recent graduates from UCI / nearby universities and have education and childcare experience or aspirations to become teacher's in the future. Most notably through the years from Columbus Grove Daycare graduates is Chi’s cooking. She provides freshly prepared meals daily and skillfully caters towards the taste buds of young ones. Most children who attend Columbus Grove Daycare come when they are young and stay until Kindergarten. We have the privilege of building trustworthy longitudinal relationships with the children we care for and they become just like family members. All children leave from Columbus Grove Daycare amply prepared academically for Kindergarten and more importantly always have fond memories of their time at Columbus Grove Daycare with Chi and friends.

At LePort, we help our students acquire the essential knowledge, thinking skills, and strength of character required to flourish as joyous children today, and as successful adults tomorrow. Our unique program emphasizes the relationship between the academically challenging material presented in the classroom, and the breadth of experiences children have in their lives outside of the classroom. At LePort School Westpark, we offer more than a high-quality, authentic, Montessori program, we also offer convenient extended care hours (great for working parents!), enriching after-school programs, and even a daily hot lunch option. Our beautiful classrooms boast high-quality furniture and Montessori materials, are full of natural light, and some even offer direct access to the outdoors, giving children the opportunity to enjoy both indoor and outdoor classroom space. Our teachers take great pride in making each room a unique, welcoming environment. As our authentic Montessori school has been open for over five years, children benefit from stable, mixed-age classroom communities. In addition, as more than half of our preschool students stay with us for the Kindergarten year, our Primary classrooms have outstanding role models for younger students, and a great peer group for older ones. All of our head teachers have completed the most rigorous, year-long AMI Montessori certification. We are proud that all of our head teachers and nearly all of our assistants have stayed with us year-over-year: quite an achievement in a preschool setting where staff turnover can be very high. If you are a dual-working family, and are looking for a place where your child will be nurtured and stimulated for an extended day, our campus provides it all!
