AH-LAN DANCE

Address: 10512 San Pablo Ave, El Cerrito, CA 94530, USA

School

“We're very impressed with the quality of instruction here. Ah-lan and the other instructors care deeply about their students, and btw, I've never donated any money to Ah-lan (we joined well after the studio was opened) and my daughter has never been "in the back row". (Most Chinese dance numbers don't have "back rows" the choreography is quite dynamic, students don't stay in a row). The physical space is beautiful. Well worth checking out.”

Shining Star School House Preschool

Address: 5637 Ludwig Ave, El Cerrito, CA 94530, USA

School

“This review is for the Shining Star nursery, which is owned by the same people as the Shining Star preschool. The nursery is on Clinton Ave., a block off San Pablo. (It's a half mile from Planet Fitness at McDonald and San Pablo.) I can't imagine a nursery better than Shining Star. The teachers there are kind and calm. It's *very* clean. (Adults don't wear shoes inside.) We visited some pretty dirty nurseries in the area and we're so glad that we found Shining Star. The hours are 8:00am to 5:30pm, Monday through Friday. They're closed on public holidays. The cost is: $1755/month for 5 days per week $1485/month for 4 days per week You pay monthly regardless of how many days you go. So it comes out to be between $8.60 and 9.15 per hour. If you're late picking your child up, the fee is $1 per minute, which is standard around here. If you need to drop your child off early or pick them up late, you can prearrange this with Preeya and pay a $10 fee. We highly recommend Shining Star!”

“we're highly involved (eo was pta president for two years). our nerdy boys have enjoyed their time there. we find it is a warm and accepting neighborhood school where kids can be kids.”

Prospect Sierra

Address: 960 Avis Dr, El Cerrito, CA 94530, USA

School

“I like Prospect very much, the teachers are great and support the student's learning. The teachers try to work together to avoid having large projects overlap. Prospect has great science and math programs, and Prospect is trying to become a green school, by composting, gardening, reducing waster, and encouraging carpools/bus riding/walking or biking. It is most definitely a great school.”

Tehiyah Day School

Address: 2603 Tassajara Ave, El Cerrito, CA 94530, USA

School

“Our two children just completed their first year at Tehiyah,, and I joke to everyone that they had the best year of their lives. Though we live in Oakland (and therefore have a 20+ minute commute), we chose Tehiyah over our local elementary and other local private schools for a number of reasons: 1) A simple joy that permeates the school. One need only to visit the classrooms, walk through the halls, or attend one of the school's many celebrations (like the Purim Carnival) to see how happy the children seem. 2) Creativity and experimentation: At Tehiyah, at least in the earlier grades, the children seem to learn by doing, from hands-on projects (like designing, creating, and then parading a very large Chinese dragon for the Chinese New Year) to scientific inquiry (will a paper clip sink or float? how do plants grow? Let's find out.) I will say if your child is artistic, the art room is simply AMAZING (and there are after-school classes for the older grades that include sewing, jewelry making, etc.). 3) Community: Though as a family we've only been at Tehiyah a year, it seems as if we've known some of our new friends forever. It's a very creative, intellectual, warm, and bighearted group of families. A few things to point out: some of the classes are imbalanced gender-wise, which I guess can happen with smaller classes. A few perks to point out as well (though they cost extra): The hot lunch service is wonderful (lovely and varied meals, with different options, like gluten-free or vegetarian), and a school bus service goes through Berkeley and Oakland. Overall, a very nice school.”

Tatis Family Day Care

Address: 2011 Junction Ave, El Cerrito, CA 94530, USA

School

“I can't say enough positive things about Tati's Family Daycare (Tati Pereira's Childcare) in El Cerrito. Our son just loves it there. It is exactly the type of warm nurturing environment you could dream of for your child. Her home is clean and safe. It is a warm calm peaceful environment. In the morning they draw and paint and in the afternoon they play outside in the yard when the weather is nice. She cooks the kids amazing healthy lunches and snacks. It's a very homey environment, she has two great kids of her own. To me the most important thing is Tati genuinely LOVES the kids. Genuinely. I feel like we won the lottery when we found her.”

“I feel so lucky that our family found this preschool. It is such an amazing community of kids, teachers and parents, and has been everything we expected and more for our 4 year old twins. We had two main goals when we started our first year at ECPC this past fall. Our twins are very close to each other, but were not very social with other kids their age and we wanted them to be able to grow socially before starting kindergarten in 2018. In addition, my wife and I were looking to find our own community here in the Bay Area, since moving 3 years ago from Brooklyn, where we lived for over 13 years. Nine months later - check and check. First, I want to talk about the teachers. Our twins are in the afternoon program, and their teachers are Nga and Jenny. I don't know how these ladies do it, but they both have the unique talent of connecting personally with parents and kids in a way that makes you feel like you're family. They know each kid in the program as if they were their own, and they understand what each child needs in order to thrive at the school. No kid is pushed into doing anything that they are not ready for. They are allowed to play with others, or play independently, and explore their surroundings in whichever way is most comfortable for them. Through their gentle, caring and patient approach, Nga and Jenny helped our children to come out of their shells, start talking more and sharing their passions with the teachers and parents. Within a few months our kids were starting to make friends and not rely on each other as much in play. Now at the end of the year they have so many new friends. We all adore Nga and Jenny, and can't thank them enough for everything they do for ECPC. Second, the parents. As a cooperative, parents are the lifeblood of the school, so it requires dedication and commitment for everything to run smoothly. Between program participation, family jobs, membership meetings and community events, the co-op nature of it can feel a little overwhelming at first. But once you become involved, you realize how special this community really is, and how everyone's work contributes to the school's success -- whether it's program participation days, monthly maintenance parties, doing laundry, planning fundraising events or volunteering at a potluck or open house. Because I wasn't able to participate during school hours due to my job (my wife is our family's "parent participator"), I attended the monthly membership meetings and almost every community event to stay connected to what's happening at the school and get to know other members. But it wasn't until Messy Art Day - our annual spring community event that invites kids 4 and under from throughout the East Bay to ECPC for a day of free immersion in art activities - that I started to feel a deep love for this school. My family job this year was on the MAD planning committee, but I had never been to the event before to see it in action. Once the day came, I was able to see with my own eyes how much local families look forward to this event each year, how much fun kids have getting covered in paint, shaving cream, "clean mud" and oobleck, and how it takes participation from everyone at the school to pull off seamlessly. MAD is the epitome of everything this school stands for -- learning through imagination and play, cooperation among the ECPC membership, and connection with the wider community. Our family loves ECPC and can't wait to see what next year brings.”
