Creative Mind Preschool

My son started here during the pandemic.  Not only did I feel safe sending him but he loved every minute of it. His teacher Ms. Pamela was amazing.  It is clear how supported and cared for he was, the staff and administrators were always generous with their time and energy.

Heart-centered and play-based preschool on the east side of L.A. with an emphasis on social-emotional learning, diversity, creativity and building confidence and awareness in little ones as they discover the world and themselves outside the bubble of home. Our son attended from ages 2 to 5, and benefited greatly from his connection to Creative Mind's wonderful community of children and teachers. We are so grateful to have found this childcare resource, and would happily recommend it to any family beginning the preschool search.

Wonderful preschool centrally located to the east side of LA. Worked great for us as I commuted to my office in Hollywood and it was nice to have our daughter close by. Great hours for working parents. The school has an intentional focus on diversity & inclusion and social & emotional learning. Fantastic teachers and supportive environment overall. Really felt like the school was an extension of our home. Our daughter went on to receive admissions to one of the most competitive private schools in Pasadena and we can't help but attribute some of that to Creative Mind!

What a wonderful preschool. Our son started at Creative Mind when he was 2.5. He was always excited to go to school. The longer he attended, the more I saw the wonderful influences of the school's philosphy take hold in him. He started to spontaneously say he wanted to be gentle and kind. He would say "I'm a scientist," and then, "Do you know how to become a scientist? You ask questions." He hadn't shown an interest in painting at home, but at Creative Mind, he made lots of paintings and crafts that now hang on our fridge. He grew to love his teachers and formed friendships with other children. I was also impressed with the way the COVID-19 transition was handled. While the school was closed, the teachers quickly began to provide excellent virtual classes that kept my preschooler engaged for up to an hour and a half each time he chose to join. The school communicated frequently with parents about reopening, and when it was time to reopen, they did so with every possible precaution in place. Brigitte, Sasha, and Mr. Genaro were always incredibly kind and loving toward our family. You cannot go wrong with this school.
