Wee Care Early Learning Center 3580 Mount Acadia Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92111

"Our family LOVES Wee Care! Our oldest daughter attended Wee Care from 1.5 to almost 5yo, including through the pandemic. We absolutely have loved and trusted all of the staff and Diane, the owner. So much so, that we previously did not live very close to Wee Care, but then chose to buy our house nearby so that our older could keep attending and so that our younger could start. Our youngest started as soon as she turned 2, is almost 3.5 and will be there until TK next fall. She often comes home saying how much she loves school, and which teacher is her favorite, etc. etc. Our older daughter is still friends with kids from there, even though they are now at different schools, and she loves dropping off her sister as she can give her old teachers hugs. Our oldest daughter was much more prepared than her peers when entering TK (although I am sure some were never in a preschool setting), so alongside the 'play' based learning that they all love, they are also getting prepared for school. They are great about sending home report cards the first weeks you start, and during potty training, as well as texting photos especially when they get a boo-boo at school. Oh and did I mention they practically potty train your kids for you?!?! Both of our daughters were potty trained at school first and then had super easy single weekend potty training at home bc they already had so much practice at school. Another reason we have always loved Wee Care are the unbeatable hours, making it great for parents with early or later working hours, as many are only open 9-5. Also, I am not a 'pack a lunch mom' so it is great you only need to send them in with diapers and wipes!!"

"After 6 years (2 kids) at Wee Care we say with high certainty that this is a solid childcare/preschool. Things we like: 1. Staff is great. We've had a number of teachers as our kids have progressed through the age groups and we haven't had one that we haven't liked. 2. Director (Diane) is a great communicator and generally runs a tight ship. 3. Lunch is included. Thank goodness; one less worry in the crazy morning. 4. Excellent hours and schedule. Something like 6:30AM to 6:00PM daily with only a handful of holidays unlike many other preschools where the hours are unfriendly to working parents and preschool is out for extended periods during the holidays. 5. Reasonable prices (although some increases lately but i don't mind the staff getting raises and cost of living adjustments). Still a pretty good deal. Things that could improve: Not gonna sugar coat it, but the location behind a strip mall was a little off-putting at first until "we got over ourselves". It's about the kids, not how fancy the facilities look. Our kids liked it there and never complained; both fully prepared for kinder socially and academically. They are fully accredited and certified, staff is great, turnover is low; these are what's really important."

"With two kids and both me and my wife working full time - I have a lot of experience with Preschools and Daycares, and WeeCare consistently has provided top tier education and service at an incredible price point. I am consistently amazed by the things my son learns and brings back each day: he loves the alphabet, learning, and will know the proper names of animals that even I have trouble remembering. My daughter was in a different WeeCare years ago, but I was likewise always impressed by the things she was learning and the skills she gained here - it certainly gave her a huge leg up when she joined Elementary. WeeCare in Rancho Bernardo (now a different company) was my first preschool, so I didn't realize what I had until they left, and I went through several other schools trying to find the quality that I originally had. The biggest factor (in my opinion) is that both had the excellent guidance of Preschool Director Diane Martine. She has always been responsive, helpful, and I think she does a great job picking the best teachers for the kids. She was also very helpful and understanding during the time when my son was lagging a bit on potty training, and helped to catch him up with the wonderful teachers she has employed. Big shout out to all the incredible teachers who are patient, always on top of informing us if there is owies, or things to help our kids grow and learn, and are always available and responsive to our questions. Thank you WeeCare - it's tough being a parent right now, and it's a HUGE worry off of our shoulders to know our kids are being taken care of."

"It is more affordable than other day cares in San Diego. They also have more availability than other day cares. My daughter loved going to Wee Care! She had so much fun and made so many friends. She enjoyed going to Wee Care and loved her teachers and teachers assistants. Whenever an issue was raised, the staff was quick to resolve it. My daughter is in Kindergarten now, but she always remembers this school and talks about wanting to come back for a visit. Thank you Wee Care for nurturing growing minds."

"Our daughter has been going there since April. We absolutely love this place. They are so engaging with the children and they actually TEACH the children during classroom time. When I picked my daughter up a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving she was telling me all about cornucopias...I was blown away because she completely knew what it was and she is only 4!! Because of Wee Care she enjoys learning and doing crafts. They also offer Spanish class, dance class, as well as other programs for a really good price. My daughter is actually taking Spanish right now and is on the wait list for the dance class. I am really really happy we found this place and I know that she will be beyond ready for kindergarten."
