What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
Miss Ana, Miss Armida, and Miss Alia are wonderful. They are caring and attentive to what each child needs. They are always smiling and ready to show affection to the children. They bring joy to the environment, help the children develop their abilities with gentleness, and spark their curiosity to learn even more. I am very grateful for each one of them and so happy for the opportunity my son has to learn and be cared for by such amazing teachers. Thank you so much for everything ❤️
I really love The Prep School. They have an incredible staff always caring and professional. The facilities are spotless and very well maintained. The kids truly learn and have fun; you can tell they’re growing in a happy environment. They also have such a lovely sense of community, and I absolutely love the events they organize.
I have my 14‑month‑old daughter enrolled at The Prep, and she is always excited to see Ms. Alia and Ms. Armida! My little one has very sensitive skin, and the staff has been so accommodating with her frequent diaper changes, which gives me great peace of mind. I’ve also noticed incredible progress in her sign language and basic communication skills since starting here. In addition, I use the “drop off” option for my 5‑year‑old when her school is closed and I need to work. She always has a wonderful time, and we especially love Ms. Sanchez! The Prep has been such a supportive, nurturing environment for both of my children, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention they receive. Highly recommend!
YOU FOUND IT! Moms and dads, look no further. After trying so so many daycares across San Antonio, this is the ONE. It is clean (sparkling even), with perfect classrooms, curriculum and play areas tailored to each child and their needs. It’s affordable, serves delicious fresh foods, and the teachers are so incredible. My 18mo old is thriving! I’ve never had a single complaint or issue unlike so many other daycares. The mom guilt is AWFUL having to leave her for so long every day. She used to scream all day and be overwhelmed and exhausted by the time we got home. But when I drop her off at The Prep, she immediately runs up to her teachers and sits down, ready for the day! When I pick her up, I always ask her how her day was. She yells “happy happy happy” all the way home.. which makes mama’s heart so very happy happy happy 🥹. We love Mrs. Alia, Mrs. Ana and Mrs. Armida ❤️❤️❤️
We LOVE The Prep! Both of my kiddos started here at just one year old, and it has been an incredible experience. The teachers are truly the best! My daughter is currently in 5K (Private Kinder) with Mrs. Sanchez, and she is simply amazing. Thanks to her dedication, my daughter is learning both English and Spanish, and she's thriving beautifully. The nurturing environment and engaging curriculum have made a world of difference for our family. We couldn't be happier with The Prep and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic early education!
