She could recognize every letter written in capital or lowercase and could even write her own name. Our daughter also came home with artwork she made pretty much every day. We left…

Ramya X. says "The daycare was very nice, very homey. They took care of the kids very well, provided great food, and made sure my kids got good food and kept us informed. It became more like a family rather than a daycare, and the kids were very happy. The kids still visit now, even though they went a while back. They would ensure the families come together to get to know each other to build the connection for the kids; it made us all feel more connected. "

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Los Altos, CA

The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift.

You can also check your options in Los Altos, CA for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Los Altos, CA, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances. You may also want to ask about the ratio of learning time to supervised play time so you can get a good sense of whether you believe your child's needs will be met. From there, ask about what a typical day consists of, what the safety protocols are and how discipline will be handled. Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Los Altos, CA.
