Imagine Christian Preschool

"My 2 year old toddler goes to ICP. ICP is a Montessori, play based Christian preschool in San Jose. I am a SAHM and was not in a rush to send my child to preschool. After careful consideration of many preschools in the area, we decided to enroll my youngest child in ICP. The procedure to enroll my child in ICP was easy. We went for the initial tour and then the open house. We filled out the registration and had a consultation with a teacher, director, and a parent (me). We sat down to discuss child’s tendencies, likes / dislikes, strengths / struggles, growth we are looking forward to, and any concerns we may have had. I really appreciated that they took the extra hour to learn about my child. Everything was carefully noted and I felt relieved that we were going into the first day of school well prepared. My toddler has been with ICP from the very beginning and I am beyond satisfied with the quality of care we’ve received as child and parent. ICP uses the ProCare App. I am notified every time my child is checked in / out, when my child starts / ends a nap, every potty trip / diaper change, photos of several activities during the day, and an end of day summary. Currently it is BYOL, but to my knowledge there will be meal options available soon. Healthy AM / PM snacks are served daily. (ICP is a nut free school). I’ve seen my child make pumpkin parfaits, sing songs / dance, do craft + paint, pretend play, magnet play, build legos, sensory play, outdoor play (sand, chalk, balls, bikes, water table, etc). The teachers put on sunscreen for my child daily. I know I can’t do all of these activities with my child at home. Communication has been so easy and efficient. Any minor concerns I had were immediately addressed, whether it was an area that needed a little extra attention, request for my child to drink more water during the day, nap adjustments, or potty training needs. As mamas, we worry about the safety and development of our children. ICP is new but extremely organized and functions like a well established preschool. They have a curriculum, lesson plans, and a daily schedule. Most importantly, my child is safe and happy here. My toddler is excited for school every morning and we’ve never had a teary drop off!"
