Paradise Valley Community School (PVCS)

"We are thrilled to have found PVCS after moving to AZ! We send our 2 year old and 5 year old here and only have fantastic things to say about the staff, teachers, curriculum, and (recently updated and shaded) play areas. Even better, the school has a true community feel and goes above and beyond to accommodate the needs of their students and families. We know - due to my work schedule ramping up over the past few months, we’ve had to increase the kids’ school hours on several occasions, and Ms. Debbie, the school’s director, is always understanding and flexible. We are grateful to have found a school that the kids are incredibly excited to attend, where respect, kindness and curiosity are taught and encouraged each and every day. Given the school’s play-based model, they make school both educational and fun - all that we could ask for as parents!"

"Absolutely stellar experience at this family-owned daycare. Not only Director Debbie is a shining example of professionalism, kindness, and genuine care for all the children, but the entire family that owns this establishment is present and engaged every single day. Their dedication is evident in the loving atmosphere they've cultivated. Each teacher radiates love and dedication, making every child feel special and valued. This is our second year here, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the nurturing environment our almost 4-year-old daughter receives. Highly recommend this daycare to any parent seeking a safe, loving, and enriching place for their child to grow!"

"Our 4 Year old has been at PVCS for 3 years now and we couldn't be happier. This is very much a family run business and we feel like part of the family. The teachers are wonderful and it's such a positive atmosphere. Prior to PVCS, we had another child at a different daycare center and the turnover in staff was constant. The staff here are all long-term and are absolutely amazing and the communication on all levels is outstanding. Happy to see our little one grow up and move on to kindergarten next year, but we'll be so sad to leave PVCS. We can't recommend it enough!"

"My daughter went to PVCS and now my son and we couldn’t be more happy. From the amazing owners and manager Debbie to each and every teacher and staff member, they make you and your family feel welcome, comfortable, important and part of the family. They have undergone renovations to update the school which was seamless for the families and turned out amazing. They have engaging activities that are developmentally appropriate and the teachers truly care about each child and their progress. You know your child loves their school when they wake up on weekends asking to go and don’t want to leave when you pick them up!"

"My son went here from 2018-2020 and loved it. My daughter has now been there for almost 2 years (since 2022), starting with the change in owners, and it's been fantastic! The staff is stable and wonderful. They have done massive renovations and clean up, so the space is really nice. Lastly they implemented Brightwheel app, which manages everything, and staff is great at posting pictures daily. They really come up with engaging activities and my daughter is always happy to go there. They don't provide lunch, but do cover all snacks."
