Discovery Isle Preschool

"We took our daughter to Discovery Isle when she was 6 months old and left right before kindergarten. My wife and I were more than pleased. The staff treated our daughter so well and taught her so many things to prepare her for kindergarten. Melinda was always willing to work with our schedule. I highly recommend this Discovery Isle to anyone looking for child care."

"As a mom who always had enough family around to help out, I never imagined I would need to use day care, but alas, the day came. This was a very overwhelming and scary decision for my husband and I, but Discovery Isle made us feel very comfortable. Throughout the day we receive photo updates and my son loved it! Now our daughter attends and it is one less worry in life because I know that she is well cared for and is learning in a healthy, positive atmosphere. Thank you Discovery Isle for giving us piece of mind and caring for our children just as we would!"

"Our child attends DI in Ted Williams in Poway and I don’t think we could have found a better place that hits all items in our parent list. Cleanliness Safety Genuine Care Engaged Teachers and Staff Warm Environment Learning through play and project type activities Support for parents A drop offs can be tough and in my time here the teachers understand when you need help and will take your child off your hands to ease them into class. You do have to take the time to communicate with them and let them know what your concerns are and they will do their best to help your child adjust. We have Miss Leang and Miss Emily currently and they are wonderful people that I trust my child with. Their principal is also highly engaged and was all over a concern my husband had when he and I switched our roles in morning drop off. She took care in the concern and the whole team contacted me to understand what was going on with his fussiness with drop offs and paid closer attention to him to see what we all could do to help him transition from mom and dad to class. This is his second preschool since we moved here and he enjoys DI much more as do I. Take a tour to really get a feel for yourself. Lastly the most important thing is that when you walk in to pick up your child there is always someone there at the front office or walking around. They take the time to get to know parents and greet them. That makes us feel our child will be safe."

"Mr. Mulder is an amazing kindergarten teacher. My son attended a very prestigious school for kindergarten last year for one month and was in total fear afterwards. When we switched to Discovery Isle the principle and vice principle took the time to listen and to understand what my son had been through. My son was placed with Mr. Mulder. Mr. Mulder gave my son his confidence back. He is now a fluent reader and he is happy at school. Mr. Mulder has helped many kids reach their full potential, many who have had bad experiences at other programs, and my son is now one of them. We were blessed to find him. I recommend his kindergarten class to everyone."

"As opposed to a prior review, my family has had a very good experience at DI. We moved to Poway from Central San Diego and were looking for a new day care/preschool for our then 4 yr old daughter and 2 yr old son. The teachers interacted with the kids very easily and our children love them, the facilities are clean and safe. Since then our daughter has moved onto kindergarten where she's really been comfortable from a social as well as academic standpoint. Our son continues at DI and we've enrolled our youngest as well. They both continue to do very well there. I highly recommend DI."
