La Petite Academy of Dougherty Valley

"We're really happy our kids go to this school. Everyone is nice, and Thirumala and Swarnali are really awesome teachers."

"Really love the school, my kid has a great time here."

"We recently moved countries from Switzerland and my son started mid season at a Jr Kindergarten with Ms. Tanibet at Acorn. Coming from Switzerland, he didn't even know how to write and considering he was already behind other kids, we were so nervous whether he will be able to cope up with the change. But, we can't thank Ms. Tanibet enough, she has been a tremendous teacher. She worked so hard with him. There were initial days where he would not like to come home and do homework and now he not only loves writing and reading, he looks forward to going to school and loves doing his homework. The kind of confidence we have seen him in 4 months is simply amazing. We want to thank Ms. Tanibet for helping him at every step and Thank you all the teachers and facility at Acorn! We love the school, teachers and the facility."

"I switched to Acorn after we had some serious issues with a different facility in the Tri-Valley. From the beginning, Dawn and Shelly were a breath of fresh air. They truly cared for my son and the lifestyle of most two income families. Over the two years my son attended Acorn, his growth was exponential. He went from needing speech therapy to being fluent and having friends. Acorn worked with our schedule to ensure that it accommodated the many challenges of a three child family and two working parents. Our son loved attending and would look forward to going to class. He learned his entire alphabet, counting to 100s, some Spanish, and would come home singing everyday from school. I truly believe Acorn is one of the best preschools in the East Bay and would recommend it to anyone."

"Best for kids with a good routine"
