academic. We also provide age-appropriate after-school learning with the same
key focus points.

We provide customized learning experiences that stimulate every child’s growth
to build their Confidence, Commitment, and Character.

PARENT TESTIMONIALS

We were looking for a new daycare after a horrible small in home daycare
experience. Our child would scream without stopping at the home daycare. after
putting our kid in this daycare for three days. It was the most stressful
situation I have ever dealt with. Needless to say I will never do another home
daycare again. I found Building Kidz and took a tour. I was a little hesitant
due to covid but after hearing about their protocols I honestly feel it’s safer
than a home daycare.
The facility is new and they do deep cleanings every night as well as regular
testing of teachers for covid. This is much more stringent than a lot of daycare
protocols I’ve seen. I was also afraid because my son was 11 months he might
have issues adjusting especially because of what happened at the home daycare.
Both stefanie and elissa were AMAZING in helping my kid adjust. It took my son
Ten minutes the first day and after a week he doesn’t even cry at drop off!
Which is saying a lot considering he wouldn’t stop crying with his previous
daycare. They take tons of pictures and videos of my kid so I don’t feel like
I’m missing out and he ALWAYS looks super happy. They’ll notice small things
like a small rash or if his temperament has changed due or getting shots and
keep me informed.
If anyone is looking for a good daycare I highly recommend this one.

Our family LOVES Building Kidz School. We are so happy to find a center that’s
meets all of our expectations! We love their low teacher:student ratio and
structured day with fun activities. My child has already learned so many new
skills at the center. The school also uses The Brightwheel app which lets me
follow my child’s day. The teachers and staff have been nothing but amazing to
us and very flexible. I would recommend this center to all families!

Amazing brand new facility! Staff is super friendly, great location as well.

learning about the new school.

Our family absolutely loves Building Kidz! As a first-time mom, I had
reservations about putting our daughter in daycare. We started with a nanny but
the schedules didn’t work. We toured several centers in Roswell and were BLOWN
AWAY by Building Kidz, which we lovingly call BK in our house.
Being at BK totally changed my perception about what daycare is — and what it
isn’t. I initially wanted a nanny because I didn’t want to feel like some other
people were raising my child while I was at work. But in reality, a good daycare
isn’t just caring for your child, they are teaching them too. Even little babies
get stimulation and activities that help them learn social skills and other
development skills. Our daughter has been at BK since she was 12 weeks old and
now she is nearly 3 years old. We love the focus on performing arts and how BK
really makes each family feel like part of a community. I highly recommend
Building Kidz to any family I meet. It’s such an amazing place for children.

We have been bringing our preschool aged son to this facility for the past
couple years (first when it was Kids Camp, and through the transition to
Building Kids). It is in such a convenient location for us in the EDH business
park. We love that we can do drop in, and bring him whenever it works best for
us. Our son also really enjoys the music and dance curriculum. They do lots of
fun projects, and the facility is very well set up. Highly recommend!

Great daycare/preschool. My toddler loves this place. The student/teacher ratio
is good and the teachers seem to genuinely love children. The owner is
incredibly responsive and responds to any calls/texts in a very timely manner.
They have a routine and curriculum, while also being flexible. The interior is
super cute. The outside play area is just alright, but they take the kids for a
lot of walks and bike rides outside of the facility (in a very controlled and
safe manner).
They don’t provide meals , but they do provide a morning and an afternoon snack.
My husband and I have been very happy with Building Kidz.

We just moved to EDH and I was in need of a day care for my daughter. Cindi and
her team were able to give me a tour immediately and my daughter started just a
few days after. The sign up process was seamless, the facility is very clean and
organized. The teachers are all great and the fact that they use Brightwheel is
a huge plus. I receive notifications and pictures all day long and this makes he
feel very comfortable. The facility and the program are great!!

After visiting many, many daycares in the area… I am so happy that I found
Building Kidz!!! Ms. Amber gave me a wonderful tour without any notice and took
the time to answer all of my questions! Her personality made me feel 100%
comfortable leaving my little guy!!! The entire staff is amazing and my 3.5 year
old is learning so much!!! All of the teachers take the time to know my son and
our entire family!!! All the kiddos are great as well!

My daughter has been going here for about 3 months now. All of the staff at
Building Kidz are great. They ensure every drop off goes smoothly. My daughter
has been home since Covid started and was shy and timid and frankly behind on
her words. She has flourished since being there and they take the time to make
sure she is ok every time I drop off and pick up. I cannot say enough good
things about Building Kidz and their staff. Thank you Amber for loving my girl.

My granddaughter absolutely loves coming to school here. She talks about how
much she loves her friends and her teachers. We felt welcome and comfortable
from the very first visit. My granddaughter is only 3, so we look forward to a
couple more years for her to thrive at Building Kidz!

This place is amazing for your littles!! Mr David, Ms Joanna and all the others
have really special gifts with kids. And David is a great guy. He helped me out
a lot as a single father going through a really tough custodial fight with all
sorts of stuff. But most of all they prepared my son so so perfectly for
kindergarten that he’s just excelling beyond my wildest hopes and dreams! My son
loved his time at building kidz and in this day and age it’s really hard a
parent to trust people but David and his team also excelled at doing that for
this daddy! I don’t think I would have faired so well in my custodial battles if
I had a different day care for my son at the time. I can’t say enough good stuff
about this particular location and there are not enough words in our current
lexicon to express just how very grateful I am for our time with building kidz
or Roseville-east. Thank you so much.

We love this school, as does our son. Not only is Mr. David (the owner),kind and
compassionate, he is patient and loving. I can’t say enough about the positive
influence he has had on my son. The structure the school provides is conducive
to the development of a well adjusted child. I highly recommended it.

My daughter honestly LOVES this school. I was very sad when we were moving from
Bay Area where both of my kids attended an awesome daycare – I was sure I would
never find anything comparable to what they had but I was so wrong. My son went
to TK and my daughter had to start new preschool by herself so I was so worried…
she LOVES LOVES LOVES it at Building Kidz! She pretends she doesn’t see me when
I come to pick her up! A little embarrassing I know:)
The owner-David is very accommodating and so nice! Since I moved here just
recently I didn’t know the area and since my move I found couple other preschool
way closer to my house but I’ve decided to keep my daughter at Building Kidz
because I feel it’s a great match! Highly recommend!

This place is amazing! I am a first-time mom to a 15 month old. I was so nervous
about daycare and not being with my son. The owner David and all the teachers
are so patient and kind. They’ve been supportive with our need for flexibility
due to my irregular schedules. My son attended for 3 months and was so happy! We
got frequent updates through the Brightwheel app. I loved being sent pictures
and videos of my son enjoying his day. It made me feel like I was there with him
when I couldn’t be!

The facility is clean and safe. The adults are trustworthy and kind. Highly
recommend! I only wish we could go more, but our financial situation changed.

My daughter loves coming here. They do so much for the kids and Teacher Anna
Sheafe is great! She really makes the effort to keep her students clean and
tidy, I can tell because whenever I pick up my daughter, she is just the way I
left her. Most places let the kids get dirty and run around with their hair all
over their faces and covered in snots, they have their jackets on at a 80
degrees weather, not here! Its the little “mommy” things that matter and teacher
Anna makes sure your kids are taken care of. Its a good home, away from home for
your little preschooler. I am happy my daughter is with teacher Anna.

My daughter attended Building Kidz of South San Francisco from when she was 7
months old until just a couple of weeks ago, she’s now 2.5 years old. Our son (6
months) also started daycare there at 4 months. We had a wonderful experience
with Building Kidz of SSF. The teachers are great. All of the teachers, even the
ones that were not instructors of their classes, knew their names. It is an
incredibly friendly and warm environment. Both my husband and I work full time
so to find a daycare/preschool that we could trust our children with was a huge
win for us. We would have continued to keep them at this school, however, we
just moved to San Carlos. We actually transferred my son to the Building Kidz
San Mateo location because of our positive experience. Thank you to the entire
staff at SSF for making our daughter and son’s time there so wonderful.

Leaving your baby in the hands of anyone besides your own parents, well… we
haven’t even done that yet, but we will Mom I promise!! They have provided great
care to our 6 month old and to us by always responding to our questions through
their app and keeping us informed on when he’s sleeping/ eating/ and pooping ,
which makes us feel that we are actually there! Can’t be any happier with them
and their service! Strict COVID precautions are also nice to see. Temperature
checks, masks for all providers… I feel safe leaving my most prized possession
with them!

Our son went to Building Kidz SSF from age 11-18 months and we were super happy
with our experience. From day 1 the teachers all knew our baby by name and
seemed to really care. Our boy would go happily into day care every single day,
no tears, and in fact would excitedly say their names in happy anticipation when
getting ready in the morning.
I loved the app they use for keeping us in the loop every day on what he was up
to/ how his meals and naps went – the messaging function was a really quick and
easy way to communicate with staff.
COVID protocols have adapted over the months, and have helped us feel safe
sending our baby there.
Overall we have been so glad we chose Building Kidz SSF and highly recommend to
to anyone looking for care. We are so sad we have moved away and lost this great
local resource!

We recently started our 1yo at Building Kidz, and couldn’t have asked for a
better place to send our kid. Mrs Sundari, the director, is so caring towards
our child and accommodating to our preferences, and she really put us at ease as
first time parents sending our kid to a day care for the first time.

Similarly, the Infants’ room teachers are all very caring towards our child and
accommodating of our preferences. We are looking forward to a long relationship
with Building Kidz!

Our 22 month old daughter started her day care here and like every first time
parent, we were anxious about her transition but all thanks to Miss Iris and
Miss Ebun, for making it so smooth and easy for our daughter. Special thanks to
Miss Sundari for being so accommodative and caring. They put us at ease by
taking really good care of our kid. We really liked the brightwheel app they use
to keep us posted about our daughter’s day to day activities in school. Miss
Sundari, Miss Raji and other management staff know most of the kids by their
name and even their parents. This really shows how much interest and care they
take towards every child. We feel she is in a safe place.

Thanks to all the teachers and staff of building kidz !

We love Building Kidz MV!!
I’ve been meaning to write a review here a while ago. My daughter has started
here 1.5 years ago, since she was 6 months old. From the moment we brought her
to the infant room, we felt the love and caring from all the teachers. Each and
every teacher there were so great and my daughter was in love with them. In the
toddler class, she is really happy. Ms Iris and Ms Ebun are simply the best, and
they are doing everything they can to make the kids happy and engaged.

I want to say a big thank you to Ms. Sundary and Ms. Raji in particular – for
being always available for parents, and support then during this time.
We really appreciate everything that Building Kidz has done for us, and for
helping us shaping our daughter little personality in such a good way! Thank
you!

I have reviewed Building Kidz previously, but since COVID-19, my son stopped
going, for obvious reasons. BK recently opened up to all students, per the SC
County guidelines. Today was my son’s first day back. It was seamless. BK really
stepped up their check-in process to adhere to the CDC guidelines and safety
precautions. The health screening in the morning (temperature check and logging)
was perfect, lines to tell indicate 6ft, and staff at the ready. Hand washing
stations at conveniently located near the classrooms (these are permanent
washing stations, not temporary, so it looks great and sanitary). Everyone in
face masks, contact less check-ins through the app. It was great.

Ms. Euben was very helpful today, as we transitioned back, we needed extra help
and attention. The teachers all showed they missed and cared for my son. It was
great and heartwarming. It is the level of comfort that I needed as a parent
bringing back my child to an unknown environment. They took care of all the
necessities for a proper and safe return to school. I am very fortunate to have
found Building Kidz. Their response to the pandemic is great, so much so that it
provided an avenue of normalcy for the families. The sooner that we all can get
to the “new normal” whatever that may entail, the quicker the transition will be
to some sort of normalcy.

Thank you to all the staff, each of you, you all have really made the transition
in uncertain territory great. I also want to commend Ms. Raji, the Director, for
her great communication via email. It is professional and really goes above and
beyond.

The teachers at building kids are the best. Our son joined when he was two and
our daughter when she was five. Teacher Sami is the absolute best for our
toddler. He loves her and he loves school. Director Marissa and the teacher
Aliveah have done an amazing job supporting my kindergartner through this very
challenging year (2021). She loves learning, has been able to take all her zoom
classes with the support of a teacher and has been able to play with friends her
age through this whole year. They’ve celebrated all the holidays and milestones
together. The support Building Kidz has provided has meant the world to our
family.

I have 2 kids in Building Kidz, one who just graduated and one who is still
there. This school is awesome, bottom line. It’s a little scary leaving your
small child in the care of others for the first time and it’s quite the relief
to find a place where you know your children are in good hands every single day.

When we started looking at preschools we knew we wanted to find a place where
the kids actually learned things but also had fun doing it. We toured a few
schools and when we got to Building Kidz we knew we had found the one. The
curriculum is taught with songs, art, and theater along with lots of outside
play time. My son left preschool with a great foundation for kindergarten
including counting to one hundred, strong knowledge of the alphabet, basic
addition and subtraction, and sight words. His ability to listen, focus, and
follow directions has grown leaps and bounds over the past 3 years.

We have found the school to be clean (I mean, they got our kids safely through a
pandemic), responsive, and flexible. The best review of all is probably that my
kids actually looks forward to going to school every day. Thank you Building
Kidz and all your wonderful staff and teachers for caring for my kids and
teaching them that learning can be fun!

My son has been attending building kidz since June and we can’t say enough about
the positive impact the teachers and the school had on his behavior, development
and personality. The staff and the teachers are very caring toward the kids. My
son started in Ms. Gianna’s class and then transitioned into Ms. Jamie’s class
and had a seamless transition. He loves every part of coming to school and being
with the kids. We are so grateful for the teachers, amazing staff and
management. We really like the balanced mix of preforming arts and academics.
The kids put on a really entertaining winter show and our son was singing the
songs all through out winter break. I can’t recommend this place enough for
anyone looking for child care in San Mateo.

Second review here because my daughter started Building Kidz SM not too long
ago. This review is for all parents out there who are thinking of enrolling
their BABY. Trust me, I was super hesitant (even though my son attends the
school already). Not because I didn’t trust the school but the fact that it’s my
baby that I’m sending off and it was also during the pandemic. She was only 6
months when she first started in Jan 2021. Let me tell you, as soon as I met Ms.
Daisy, she made me feel at ease right off the bat. You can tell she was
confident and knew what she was doing. Every request or concern I had, she
addressed it quickly. They use the app called Bright Wheel and I ALWAYS get
updates and pictures daily. I know when she last ate, when she last had a diaper
change, etc. Her baby room team is amazing with all the babies too. My daughter
smiles at every single teacher she sees (I think that’s a pretty solid sign she
likes the school.) We’re not allowed in the school at the moment because of
covid protocols, but they’re extremely good about taking temps for the kids
before entering and sanitizing their shoes/clothes. Ms. Jessica (director’s
assistant) is fantastic. She knows all the kids and all the kids love her. She’s
very on top of everything and is always there to update us about our kids. The
school has been great about keeping everything cleaned and making sure all their
staff is vaccinated. Like I said in my first review, just go and take a tour,
see for yourself! Hope this helps you make a decision because I know it’s tough
when it comes to trusting others with your kids. We do appreciate all the staff
there. Good luck!

My daughter loves it here. I can not praise my daughters school enough. Jay has
been attending Building Kidz for almost 3 years. We are so happy to see how
happy she becomes when we pull into the parking lot. She comes home with awesome
projects and sings songs on the ride home she learned in school. It’s even
better that that we see the same teachers everyday. We were fortunate the school
remained open during COVID. They made great changes to keep families and staff
safe. The best thing was our baby girl being sprayed with a non chemical mist on
her shoes and clothes to prevent additional germs coming in. Jay started off in
the toddler program and had moved on to preschool. I highly recommend this
school to anyone looking for a great family oriented, positive, healthy and
happy school with loving and nurturing staff. We adore all of the teachers and
love the open communication with the directors and us.

I had my twins here for almost 2.5 years. It was a great experience, the
teachers are lovely and care about the kids. They have developed great social

They are there for you when you need them, great services, lunch is included for
a reasonable monthly tuition.
Thank you Building Kidz!

My twin boys reached the grand age of 2.5 years and it was clear that they
needed more intellectual and social exposure than we could provide at home.
However, given that our elderly parents are living with us, we had to ensure
everyones safety in these trying times.

We looked at several daycares before deciding on Building Kidz in San Carlos.
Here’s what we love about it:
1) It’s a brand new facility with only 10-12 students. That meant the kids had
plenty of room to play in a safe, socially distanced manner. Even though there
are a few more students now, the school has divided them into 2 classrooms. The
student-teacher ratio is very much better than what we found in other schools.
2) The school is good about following drop off/pick up protocols, washing the
kids hands regularly and maintaining overall cleanliness in the facility.
3) The teachers are AMAZING and I’ve seen quite a few with my daughter! They are
great with the kids and my kids surprise me everyday by how much they’ve learnt.
My 2.5 year old can recognize and make letters with shapes!
4) I love that the curriculum includes music and dance. Both my boys enjoy that
and look forward to those lessons.
5) It took less than a week for my home schooled boys to get acclimated and look
forward to going to school everyday!

We are very happy with this daycare and 100% recommend this to other families.

building Kidz, now she can understand a lot of English and starts to speak some
English too. And she seems to be very happy whenever we drop her off or pick her
up. The teachers are wonderful, they are patient and caring. I highly recommend
Building Kidz San Carlos!

My son (3.5 yo) has been at Building Kidz since April’21. The administration and
teachers are great. My son has spent time in two classes and teachers are
loving, caring and fun. Communication with parents is frequent with regular
updates, activity photos, etc., through the Brightwheel app that works well.
Teachers have always welcomed our curiosities and provided prompt and thorough
feedback. My son has definitely become more expressive and social, and has
picked up some good habits after joining Building Kidz.

Building Kidz is an excellent preschool with teachers who are very passionate
about early childhood education! My son enjoyed his time there very much and
learned so much through play. Also you can tell how dedicated the owner and the
director both are by the love and care they put into the program!

Highly impressed with the quality of this school. The curriculum is age
appropriate and enriching. My child loves his teachers, classmates, and the
environment. BK focuses on performing arts & also has a Spanish language
component. So wonderful
They offer food and are Nut free! Another bonus
I recommend this preschool wholeheartedly.

My daughter has been going to Building Kidz for 2 years. When she started 4 half
days at age 3, she was in a smaller classroom with very loving teachers, Ms
Halie and Ms Katy. She learned all her letters, and by the end of the first
year, she was confidently singing and dancing during their end of school musical
program.

Her second year has been outstanding. She moved to a bigger room with more kids,
and all the teachers have been so kind, patient, and engaged. She goes full days
and now gets Spanish and science lessons, in addition to the music and dance
classes. She spends a lot of time playing outside, and I have stacks upon stacks
of art that she has created at school. She taught ME how to count to 20 in
Spanish. She has friends. She listens better, asserts herself politely, is
starting to read words, and is SO ready to start kindergarten in the fall.

Building Kidz is a fantastic school. Go see them for a school tour and see how
well they combine an organized curriculum with music, art, and free play. We
will miss the teachers so much when we leave, and I hope they know their lessons
and love have really made an impact on our lives. Thank you, Building Kidz!!

We have 2 children at BK- 2 and 4 years old and both have been there since they
were babies.
Building Kids prepares children for making excellent transitions into elementary
school as well as providing a platform for learning and growing every day at
school. The staff is great and caring, my children learn new things daily and
are so excited about their performances they do. I am proud to have my children
there learning daily and in good hands.

I love this school, first they took care of my nieces. I always knew I wanted my
kids to go there someday as well. My son attended BK Imagination Station only
for his last year of Pre-K and happy that he did. He went from being very shy to
a talkative child and is now doing well in Kindergarten. I highly recommend this
school, teachers are very caring and great teachers that give kids a good
foundation before Kinder, also the best with quick feedback on your concerns &
questions.

My daughter attended this preschool and is going go be attending kindergarten
soon. I am amazed at how much this school has prepared her for the transition.
Not only is the educational program excellent but they are a genuinely,
wonderful and caring group of people. The School director is always positive,
organized and has a great sense of responsibility. All the teachers are so
loving and caring. They never fail to show great enthusiasm towards the children
and they have made a positive impact on our daughter’s life.

As a parent, there is nothing better than knowing your child is in good hands.
This school ensures us that we never have to worry about our child’s happiness
and safety. She is always dropped off and picked up with a smile on her face.

We are so impressed with the curriculum, from science, math, spanish, art,
dancing, music and theatre. This is exactly what my daughter needed and I know
it will help her to be successful in kindergarten. We love what this school has
done for our daughter and we wish that we could have kept her in this school
forever.

Thank you Building Kidz, Ms. Raeli, Ms. Tina, Ms. Tara, Ms. Raquel, Ms. Rita,
Ms. Rea and all of the staff!

This preschool is absolutely amazing. My daughter adore each and every teacher
she came into contact with at this school.

This preschool provided a solid foundation in academics, social skills, and
teaching them the fundamental of dreaming big using there imagination skills. My
daughter excelled in this school with the various daily activities. One of her
favorite class in the morning is Science class. One of her favorite project was
getting to grow a bean from a seed. She learned how to pot, plant, water, and
watched it grow. With the diverse culture of where we live, I am very please
that Building Kidz offer to teach basic Spanish at this level. I catch my
daughter sometimes counting in Spanish or even saying just the simple words like
thank you. There are so many other enriching activities that goes on everyday at
this preschool that sometimes it feels like 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM isn’t enough
time. Dance Class, Music Class, Art Class, Performance Recitals….I wish I got to
experience this when I was her age.

To see that my daughter enjoyed preschool this much makes my heart melt. It’s
the little things in life that counts the most. Knowing that Building Kidz made
such a huge footprint in my daughter life make me proud as a mother for finding
a preschool like this one. Entrusting your precious little ones is a huge step
of letting go as a mother. It was the best decision I made to put my daughter at
this preschool.

I am truly thankful for Ms. Raeli and her superhero teachers.

My two boys started going to Building Kidz in Daly City since 1 year old. My
oldest son is graduating this year to kindergarten. Building Kidz has been a
family to us. We are happy with the director and all the teachers. The teacher
turn over ratio is low, most of the teachers we know for more than 3-4 years.
Both kids love go to school, each morning they can’t wait to get to school.
They have learned a lot with the preschool curriculum that building kids offers.
The teachers also pay close attention to children development. My son’s teacher
suggested to have my son checked out for his speech since he was falling behind.
We started speech therapy when he was 3. He has now successfully completed his
therapy and he has been rated above 90th percentile for both math and verbal
kindergarten entrance exams with a private school.
The school kept open even during spring 2020 COVID SIP periods when other
schools and daycares were closed which was a big help to working parents. I
can’t say enough how much I appreciate the teachers and school for keeping our
children safe and happy during the difficult times.

Thank you all!

This daycare/preschool is amazing. Our son has just graduated. He was a student
there for the year of 2020-2021. Our experience was nothing short of amazing.
The carrying and nurturing environment and teachers’ attention were superb. We
consider ourselves extremely fortunate because our son had the wonderful
experience in this preschool.
The curriculum there is a well balanced combo of play/learn time. Kids are
progressing well academically and developmentally. Great attention to the safety
protocols. Teachers there are making sure that the conditions are as safe as
possible during the pandemic. We recommend ‘Building Kidz’ wholeheartedly to all
parents out there.
P.S. It’s also priced very reasonably.

My nephews have been going to this preschool for months now and absolutely love

I absolutely love this daycare center they’re amazing with the kids, my kids
love it here. Megan the owner is great with the kids and she also has great
customer service. The app they use brightwheel is great you can communicate with
the staff by message and they send you updates on your children while there they
also send you photos of your kiddos. The staff is great as well the infant does
such a great job with my 5 month old. When I pick him up the majority of the
time someone is spending one on one time with him he couldn’t be in better
hands, the girls also did an amazing job helping my daughter learn to walk they
were supper patient with her so she could move over to the one year old room.
Same goes for the one year staff they’re always paying close attention to my
little one she loves it there especially now that she can get around. They’re
also one of the only centers that picks up at my son’s elementary they take him
and pick him which is a huge plus. He does his home work there as well as music
which they have twice a week. All I can say is that I’m truly blessed I found
this place….

I LOVE THIS DAYCARE !!!
My granddaughter has been going to Building Kidz for a couple months. I can’t
say enough about how happy we are with the care she receives. We’ve experienced
our share of daycares in the Chandler area and can say by far Building Kidz is
the best. I love the whole set up of the classrooms. Love that there is a
cafeteria that the children sit and eat together at little tables. The food
given is freshly made and healthy. The facility is always clean and kept in
order.
I am so thankful to each and everyone at Building Kidz that care for my
granddaughter. They are genuinely nice people. They never look over worked or
stressed out. I love the notifications throughout the day on an app of the food
given, diaper changes and cute pictures with her playing. I could go on and on
but Most importantly my granddaughter is happy and loves her teachers.
Thank you Building Kidz for the wonderful care.
If you are reading reviews and trying to find a daycare, look no more. You will
be very happy you found Building Kidz as I am.

I switched my son over to Building Kidz after having a not so great experience
with another preschool in the area, and I cannot say enough good things!

My son can’t wait to go to school every day and instead of crying when I drop
him off like the last school, he cries when he has to leave.

They have a great staff to student ratio and teachers really go above and beyond
with my son. He doesn’t nap well at school and he can be difficult to keep
occupied which were points of stress for teachers at his last school and they
did not hesitate to let me know- he is pretty intellectually advanced for a 2
year old (but still acts like a two year old with the occasional meltdown!) so
sometimes needs extra attention/ stimulation to stay content and engaged, which
the teachers and staff never seem inconvenienced by. Instead of asking me to do
things differently at home so it’s easier for them, the staff and teachers at
Building Kidz have come up with ways to keep him challenged and they seem happy
to do it. I’ve never seen a teacher look stressed or overwhelmed like I
regularly did at the previous school we attended.

I have seen positive changes in my son since he now is better supported, happier
and thriving in his classroom, and I’m very thankful that the caring staff has
taken extra time to work with him.

I could go on all day with more reasons why we love this school, but here are a
few-

-They have an app where you get pictures and updates on your kids through the
day. It includes their activities, what they ate, when they napped, went potty/
diapers, etc. I love checking it and seeing pics of him smiling and happy with
his friends in his class. 🙂

-They have a music class!

-They do shows and have the kids perform. Their Christmas play was the cutest
thing in the world and so well put together. No idea how they managed to get all
those little toddlers to follow directions so well! It was amazing and
absolutely adorable.

-Pricing was actually better than other places I checked out- although I would
be willing to pay more, they really are that great.

-SUPER CLEAN and SUPER ORGANIZED. The whole place is clean and just looks bright
and happy when you walk in- first thing I noticed when we did the initial tour.
We were all getting sick about once a month when he was at the last school, but
it’s been about 5 months since we’ve been at Building Kidz and he hasn’t been
sick once.

This school truly is the best and I am so glad I found them! 🙂

Both my girls have been going there for over a year. We have always had a great
experience.
They cater to my daughters diet, no meat.
I also feel comfortable leaving my 4 month baby there. Anytime I ask them to
help me with something they are receptive with a positive attitude.
I love the arts and crafts my three year old brings home. She is able to be
creative, messing, and learn about clean up.
Potty training was tough for my middle. They were super helpful!

I had considered Building Kidz in Livermore when I had visited Workday HQ onsite
in Pleasanton for a potential job opportunity. I evaluated which community to
join and was set to choose Livermore as my destination. I met with the owner and
immediately understood that Building Kidz is a different type of preschool that
is not only dedicated to building a whole child but that whole child to help
create whole families. Building Kidz in Livermore to me represented a place
where families can build families together with a well thought out curriculum
and dedicated staff who work there. At the end, the sad part is not that I
withdrew from an opportunity from Workday, but I was not able to have my
children join Building Kidz. I am looking forward to someone opening a Building
Kidz in Texas.

My very attached-to-mommy daughter loves this place. I was reluctant to start
her in day care because I wasn’t sure how she was going to do. She would cry
anytime I dropped her off at daycare at the gym. So the thought of actually
leaving her scared me. After touring the school and meeting with Angelina, my
husband and I decided to move forward. Angelina and her staff are very caring
and my daughter LOVES THEM! She gets excited to go to school. I definitely

Building kidz is an amazing preschool. I love that the director, Miss Felicia

when I leave my son here he is in good hands and will have a day full of fun and

on your child about naps, snacks, and they post pictures of what they are
learning through out the day! Also I like that Miss Felicia can write messages
to keep parents updated with important information and things going on. They do
accept child action as well which is great for low income families like myself!

Hi just started my son here last week. This was my son’s first day care at 20

pick him up I notice the teachers cuddling with him,holding him so he can feel
comforted. My son is super stubborn so I am sure it will take him time to get
acclimated but I am glad that he has familiarized himself with the staff and

They also have clean and well-decorated indoor classrooms with a theater and a

More importantly, the teachers there are all very caring and friendly. Ms Cindy

We wanted our child in a pre-school/day care that we trust and can be confident
that our child is safe, happy, learning, and well cared for. Building Kidz of
West Hayward is all that and more. Sundari, the program director, and all the
teachers are great. Everyone is very caring, patient, and responsive.

Since starting at BKH a month ago, our daughter is singing and talking nonstop.
She surprises us every day with a new song she learned at school or a new piece
of art she made. She is happy to go to school and happy when we pick her up.

What’s great about BKH:

– The program is very accommodating to our work schedule from 8-5.
– Daily update through Brightwheel so we know how our girl is doing (nap, snack,
potty, lunch update)
– Photos and videos so we see the fun our girl is having during play time, craft
time, and performing arts time. We feel connected to her throughout the day.
– Brightwheel messaging allows parents to be in constant communication with
teachers and they are quick to respond.
– Sundari is always available and very responsive via email or a quick phone
call.
– Potty training
– Monthly newsletter and snack schedule so parents know what to expect
– Clean and safe facility, everyone adheres to Covid protocol to keep the
children safe (temperature check, hand sanitizer, encourage children to wear
their mask)

We were very very nervous to start our daughter in school taking her away from
the comfort of home and family, Sundari made the transition very smooth and easy
for her and us. We look forward to seeing her grow and learn with BKH.

We were referred to Building Kidz by a neighbor. Our 4 year old has been
attending preschool at this facility for a little over a month now and our
experience has been nothing short of positive so far.

The Center Director, Sundari, is cordial, genuine, and compassionate. It’s
apparent that she genuinely cares about the wellbeing of the children. The staff
are great as well, as they all seem to be warm, patient, and nurturing.

Building Kidz offers an extensive performing arts-integrated educational
program. Research indicates exposing children to performing arts has positive
effects on a child’s development and academic performance. Hence, we were
thrilled to discover this school specializes in performing arts for ages 2-6. I
love that the new facility is secure, safe, clean, and inviting. Tuition is
reasonable. I also appreciate how parents are updated throughout the day, with
daily activity notes, pictures, and videos, through the brightwheel app.

If you’re looking for a school where your children can develop foundational
skills and grow to love learning, be sure to consider Building Kidz. I
enthusiastically recommend this school.

It’s only been day two and already we feel so confident about Building Kidz
being such a good fit for our two year old. He’s spent all of his life at home
with us because of the pandemic and while having support from my family for
childcare while we worked from home was convenient, we knew it was time for him
to get some more enrichment and socialization with other kids. We heard about BK
from our next door neighbors whose kids attend here and felt even better knowing
they would be in the same class.

Ms Brisa was wonderful to communicate with right before we enrolled him and we
absolutely love the Brightwheel app to get updates throughout the day, photos
and videos to soothe my heart!! You can tell all the teachers truly care about
the kids and do everything they can to make them feel comfortable. The assistant
director even greeted us today and knew what toys our little one likes and
helped made drop off feel more comfortable. While he still has his first week of
school jitters, I can tell he’s going to learn so much and feel very supported
here. Thank you especially to Ms Latrell for making our little guy feel
comfortable his first day!

Both of my littles have been at BK since the moment they were old enough and I
can’t say enough great things. My older one now graduated to kindergarten and he
is thriving, in part because of the experience he had at BK. I truly consider
the teachers and staff to be like family. Not to mention that we have met some
of our closest friends through BK and truly feel like the luckiest people in the
world to have the school.

The school is small, which for some parents can be a negative. We love it
because our kids form lasting friendships with their classmates. We also get
constant communication throughout the day to let us know that our little guy is
thriving and cared for, which is all we could ask.

In pre-pandemic times it was also incredibly convenient for my commute, but even
now it is a neighborhood place for us and we are so lucky to have it.

Building Kidz took us in after our beloved former daycare closed their business
permanently 7 months ago, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found a home
for our kiddo there. The teachers are truly exceptional and kind. Our kiddo
actually counts them as some of her best friends along with the other children
there. We hear things like, “Teacher Lora is a good runner and she’s lots of fun
to chase. Teacher Becca braided my hair like Elsa after nap time. Teacher Isabel
gave me a hug when I fell down outside. Teacher Donna helped me take a nap.” She
often comes home and pretends to be a teacher now. At almost 3, she knows the
letters in her name, and she can identify several letters of the alphabet. Her
art skills are through the roof, and our usually very picky eater has blossomed
into an almost hearty eater! We are truly thrilled with her progress, not just
academically, but emotionally and socially as well. She will often come home
with stories about how Teacher Lora helped her say, “No, I need space,” when she
felt overwhelmed or how she and a friend had to sit on a bench and calm down
when they couldn’t decide who got to play with a ball. I often worried that our
only child wouldn’t get to learn these empathy and sharing skills, but the
teachers do a spectacular job of guiding them gently and communicating with us
frequently, so we can reinforce the behavior at home. We get monthly lesson
plans, so we can preview what they’ll be learning about. We get almost daily
photos on Brightwheel, and at the end of every day, we get a short report of the
day’s highlights when we pick our kiddo up. The responsiveness and collaborative
spirit we feel from the teachers and directors is phenomenal. Best of all is the
performance focus at the school. I love hearing my daughter sing new songs
(sometimes even in Spanish!), I love her blossoming interest in dance and yoga,
and the spring show that they put on was truly one of the most darling things
I’ve ever seen. I’m thrilled that our daughter is getting such great care and
heaps of love at Building Kidz.

Kindness, love and patience.  Isabel, Becca and Lora are wonderful teachers and
care givers.  Our daughter started at Building Kidz on Clement Street when she
was 2 years and 3 months old.  She was not potty trained, and I could not image
she would ever sit and color like the kids on the tour we took.  Fast forward 5
months and she is now nearly potty trained and her ability to focus on art
project (while sitting still!) is amazing.

The structure, consistency, and daily routine is wonderful.  The focus on arts,
singing, dancing and general “feel good” kindness is really all we were looking
forward in early child education. I feel like she is growing as a good person in
addition to fine motor and verbal skills.

The focus on arts, singing and outside dance teachers are exactly what I would
do for my daughter if I were to stay at home.  She is getting art class, dance
class, reading, story telling, play time and learning value life lessons about
sharing, caring and expressing themselves.  Isabell organized a Halloween party
on Clement st. A holiday party with a kids show, and the winter pageant, just to
name a few.

Every day she brings home new art work – crafts I would probably never organize
myself at home. The teachers recap each days success and struggle at pick up.
 They are professional in communication, billing and oversight.  The hours are
great – ability to start before 8am was a big part of the draw at first.  Highly
recommend.

Building Kidz SF has truly blown me away.  Our son started in January 2021, and
has absolutely blossomed.  We decided to transfer from our previous outdoor/play
based preschool to Building Kidz where there is a bit more academic focus. My
kiddo went from not showing any interest in drawing or attempting to write his
letters and numbers, to loving it. He comes home everyday excited to share what
he has learned, and it is wild to see how much he has grown in just a few short
months. Isabel and the teachers genuinely care about my son, teach kindness and
empathy, and clearly communicate when there are issues.

I recommend Building Kidz without reservation, and kudos to Isabel, Becca,
Donna, and the rest of the teachers for creating such a lovely, caring, and
curious learning environment.

I have been bringing my son here for over a year now and I am so impressed. I
have used Kindercare for my youngest and they were fine but spent more time
doing paperwork than actually interacting with the kids. My older son has been
to 2 places he’s 14 now. All were very expensive and specialized in art,
languages, music and dance etc. this place is affordable and includes the same
activities as the private art school offered. I also can’t say enough good
things about the staff. They are incredibly patient and kind. They genuinely
care about each of the kids and helping them through developmental challenges
and behavioral challenges. Try them out you won’t regret it.

Best decision to send child here. The teachers care for and love the kids. The
place is spacious and clean. There is a nice dancing program and also park right
next to it.

I’ve had my two boys at Building Kidz MP since they were just over two. I
selected this location based on the warmth and kindness of Sylvia Xuereb. She
looks after each of the kids with the care and concern I would wish for in my
absence. Each of my boys loved their time there and my youngest is still there
and thriving…

Great little school hidden among the trees, very welcoming and stimulating
environment, awesome teachers.

Great experience for our 2-3 year old son, who since we arrived in the US had a
hard time with English and was not used to classrooms and schools. He was in a
small daycare before, so we were a bit apprehensive towards a big leap into a
classroom, but Mrs Darcy, Jacquie, Mariana and Jordan, along with Sylvia
provided a great environment and had all the patience in the world to care for
him day to day. He opened up little by little, showed more and more confidence,
and seemed to enjoy and learn from all the art activities in the school. We
could really see the difference, and marvel at the progress he made along the
way. Warmly recommended.

Both of my littles have been at BK since the moment they were old enough and I
can’t say enough great things. My older one now graduated to kindergarten and he
is thriving, in part because of the experience he had at BK. I truly consider
the teachers and staff to be like family. Not to mention that we have met some
of our closest friends through BK and truly feel like the luckiest people in the
world to have the school.

The school is small, which for some parents can be a negative. We love it
because our kids form lasting friendships with their classmates. We also get
constant communication throughout the day to let us know that our little guy is
thriving and cared for, which is all we could ask.

In pre-pandemic times it was also incredibly convenient for my commute, but even
now it is a neighborhood place for us and we are so lucky to have it.

We love Building Kidz! Both our kids have been at BK since they were 2. The
oldest is now a kindergartener and thriving, thanks to the social and academic
foundation provided by BK. The younger one started his second year at BK this
fall, following the re-opening after a brief closure due to the pandemic.

There are a million things I love about BK, but the most important to me is that
my kids love it. The teachers make my children feel special. Their genuine love
for children is so obvious, and I’ve never doubted that they care deeply about
each of the students in their care.

Both our kids are on the shy side and the teachers at BK have been amazing at
patiently supporting them through the social challenges of group activities,
always making them feel comfortable about their own reactions to those
activities and never pushing them past their comfort level. Both kids struggled
to engage with the performing arts activities (dance, music, theater classes),
but their teachers went above and beyond to make sure neither boy felt ashamed
or inadequate about it. Eventually both kids came to love the group enrichment
activities and learned to communicate more openly about feeling shy at times in
other social settings. In the end, the performing arts activities at BK were
really impactful because of the way the teachers helped my boys accept their own
limitations and encouraged them to ease into participation as their comfort
levels increased. I think that in other settings or with other teachers, the
outcome may have been completely opposite.

I also really appreciate the drama-free nature of this place. Issues are managed
swiftly and professionally. Teachers offer helpful advice and input when you ask
for it, but you don’t get a detailed play-by-play each day. Some parents are
more involved than others but there is no pressure and there are no favorites.

Building Kidz is the best of the best. I can say that my son has thrived in the
environment. He enjoys doing his classwork, and he is very motivated to do so.
Math, language and even science are thought and each are taken with great care.
This school is simply perfect.

The curriculum is very age appropriate and it challenges my son. He looks
forward to doing his homework and the work seems to provide just about the right
amount of work and challenge. The teachers are extremely engaged and supportive
in all regards. Ultimately, the school provides a very warm and supportive
environment.

The teachers and administration at Building Kidz are very caring. Since day one
of Building Kidz opening its doors, my son received individualized attention in
his classwork and growth. The school focuses not only academic but also
character development. Further, it has a wonderful and engaging support from its
community and this is seen in fun events and celebrations. To also add, during
the challenging times, the school went above and beyond to provide its students
and community with its resources while never missing a beat on its warmth and
welcome.

Overall, Building Kidz is fantastic – with its dedicated staff, it provides its
students with a good foundation for in character building as well as educational
fundamentals.

Thank you very much for all that you do, Building Kidz!

I absolutely love this center! The staff is great. You are always greeted with a
smile, its easy to communicate with the teachers and office staff and they
always have fun, educational activities for the kids. During this crisis, they
truly have gone above and beyond!! I have 2 kids at this center and they
absolutely loves it. I am so grateful to be part of such a loving community.
Thank you so much for your hard work!

Our kid has been attending the infant program at Building Kidz for about 2
months now. As expected the first few days was a bit tough both for us as
parents and our kid. But the teachers at Building Kidz were very accommodating
and explained to us very patiently that it might take a few weeks for things to
get to normal and what they would be doing to help. I like the Brightwheel app
being used so that I can keep track of what my kid is doing w.r.t feeding and
sleeping. It also makes it really easy for us to communicate with the teachers
during the day. The wonderful pictures and videos posted sometimes on the app is
a sweet bonus 🙂

Coming to the classroom, I am extremely satisfied with the care provided by the
teachers. They are very easy to work with and our kid (and us) have formed a
special bond and trust with a few teachers in the classroom. They take very good
care and make every effort to feed and put our baby to sleep even during fussy
days. Circle time, book reading sessions and outdoor times are somethings that
we really like. The conversations at the end of the day with the teachers show
the genuine care and warmth for the kids in the classroom.

Overall we are very satisfied with the daycare so far. We are confident that it
will continue to stay the same and would highly recommend the daycare.

So my son started kindergarten this year. And I must say he is BEYOND prepared.
The Building Kidz’ program is accelerated, independent, and disciplined while
still fostering creativity, social skills and empathy. Building kidz’ taught my
son how to write all his letters, numbers, and read basic words. This is a
wonderful program and WILL prepare your child for kindergarten.

They understand that each child develops at their own time and their own pace
and adapt their teaching methods to each individual child.

Our daughter (just under 3yrs old) has been going here over a year now and she
seems to love it. Her dad and I also love this school and it’s staff. They’ve
been in the trenches with us through all the tough stages… separation anxiety,
potty training, and even a broken leg. Being able to see our daughter throughout
the day via their secure webcam system is definitely an added bonus. Dad and I
feel blessed to have found this school with its wonderful teachers and programs.

So we left our last childcare because I witnessed an incident (another child)
but leaving was coming because our son was crying at drop off in the old place
and we could not figure out why…but he LOVES this place, after our tour he could
not stop talking about it, I was happy after our trial day and on his start day
he reassured me in the car, “mom, there is a school bus and a firetruck and a
train, so many things mom, it’s going to be fine!” He is 2.5yrs and reassuring
mom. He went from bawling his eyes out at drop off at old childcare to going
happily to gramma’s house (which was a vacation of love and being spoiled) to
this and from what I have witnessed with my own eyes he is well cared for and so
are the rest of the students, teachers here do their best, and management is
responsive to feedback and attentive to individualizing care as much as
possible! And cameras!!!! Watching him nap or play or interact is wonderful,
communication with caregivers has been awesome so far, only 3 wks in but still…I
feel very comfortable here and our son says bye without issue after months of
tantrums elsewhere (no tantrums saying goodbye at gramma’s either, all about
comfort!)

Our son loves it here and routinely asks to go to day care during the weekends
:). The teachers are great, the many activities are fun and educational (he
learns so much here) and we appreciate that he has the chance to learn to play
with so many kids. We’re very happy to have him enrolled here.

My son is finally thriving and begs me to go to school! He had a traumatic
experience at another local daycare and I didn’t think he would ever want to try
to go school (daycare) again. But from day one, at Building Kidz, my son felt
comfortable and instantly loved all the teachers. He asks me to go to school,
it’s so cute, and I’m so happy he’s finally happy. On top of that, he’s learning
so much at Building Kidz and they are performance arts based, which is great for
building self esteem. Thanks for helping my son thrive!

Our classroom provides an ideal environment to foster individual development and
self-help skills. We use a scaffolded approach to learning through
systematically building on students’ experiences and knowledge as they are
acquiring new skills in order to enhance learning and aid in the mastery of
tasks. Their curious minds are exposed to an enriched curriculum focusing on
language development by using pictures, books and basic academics in their
environment. Following simple instructions is implemented through circle time,
story time, art, and curriculum projects. Besides the social, emotional
development, we also focus on developing fine motor skills through fun and
sensory activities. Our Little Explorers are ready to put to practice their
newfound independence by exploring their surroundings as they come with a
Brighter understanding of their world around them.
