My daughter has attended here for a little over two years. The staff are lovely. The kids are happy. They provide fresh cooked lunch and snacks everyday - which is a real time saver for our family and encourages our daughter to try new foods. They have optional extra curricular activities like yoga, cooking, science, and soccer. I have seen very little staff turnover, and one staff member has been there so long that she taught one of the parents! I also appreciate all the evening events and additional information for the parents - for example, they organized an information night on transition to TK, including inviting some local TK and K teachers to speak. It feels like a warm community. Candace and Linda are responsive, friendly, and caring. Highly recommended.

Mustard seed preschool is a true gem! Our 3 year old has been attending for over a year now and he is thriving. His vocabulary exploded when he started at 2.5 years old. He was coming home singing new songs and sharing tid-bits he learned at school. The teachers are so warm and loving, it was an easy transition from a small daycare. I choose Mustard seed for its play based approach, focus on social emotional development, and generous lunch program. However my son is also learning letters and numbers as he is ready for them. It’s just the right amount of structure. The teachers and staff are very communicative and thorough. They also endeavor to build community for parents as well, which I really appreciate. They really think of everything! I highly recommend Mustard Seed to all my friends!

We love this preschool!! My youngest daughter still attends and I cannot say enough good things about it. My two children absolutely thrived in the calm, happy, and stimulating environment that is provided here. The teachers are so thoughtful and intentional about how they structure the day for the children in each age group. The teachers are attentive and engaged with the children. They encourage kindness, good manners, and an awareness of others. It is particularly noticeable how content all the children are at the preschool. Children of all ages are happy, energetic without being frantic, engaged and enthusiastic about the variety of learning and play opportunities which are available to them. The families at the preschool are involved and are all so nice.

Our oldest son attended school here a few years ago and we loved how the teachers cared for him and made him feel like family. He was a nervous kid and each year there was a teacher that took him under their wings. We moved across town and when it was time for our younger child to attend preschool, we looked at many local places but were never able to feel comfortable with any of these places and decided to make the trek back here. We couldn’t be happier. He is thriving in his first group setting and excited to go to school each and every day. We would strongly recommend this school for your loved ones.

My son is at Mustard Seed Preschool in the Kangas class for the 2014-15 school year. We love everything about the school. It is very well-run and the teachers make learning fun and interesting. Everyday they do something different that keeps the kids excited to go back. We are so lucky to have found the school.
