Mana's Montessori Preschool and Child Care - Walnut Creek, California

I can’t say enough good things about our time with Mrs. Mana. Our daughter stared right before she turned 1 and she is almost 4 now, my daughter loves going to Mrs. Mana, she is very hands on with her students. She puts so much love into everything she does for her students.

Mrs. Mana goes above and beyond every day to ensure that her students always have a great learning experience, feel safe and know that they are loved, special and important! Every day is something new, fun and engaging! The days consist of reading books, singing songs, playing outside, helping students with art learning there Abc and 123, and even teaching them some Spanish and so much more! There is never a dull moment at Mrs. Manas.

Mrs. Mana has the biggest heart and is truly gifted at what she does! If you are a parent reading this, I can imagine that leaving your child with another person can be very scary, but after seeing how she runs things, I would absolutely recommend going to Mrs. Mana to all of my family and friends. You can trust that she will take such good care of your children!

Thank you Mana for all that you do! You are truly amazing! ❤️

My son has been going to Mana’s since he was 6 months old. He’s now 2 1/2 years old. I’ve been blown away with the care, love, and education he has experienced since being there. My son can count, knows his abcs, and is fully potty trained. Everyday they have different lesson plans for improving the child’s growth in education; from hand eye coordination to sensory play to abcs and numbers. My son loves it there and is thriving. I also love the photos and videos she sends my husband and I throughout the day. Feels like we can still be apart of his life while he’s at school. We could not ask for a better place for my child to grow at.

Mana's Montessori Preschool and Child Care is an absolute gem! Our 2.5 year old son has been attending since he was just 6 months old, and we couldn't be happier with the incredible care and education he has received. Thanks to Mana's nurturing and devoted approach, Owen has flourished and is way ahead of other children his age.

Mana herself is an extraordinary caregiver and educator. Her sweet and kind nature shines through in every interaction with the children. It's evident that she genuinely loves her students and treats them as if they were her own. This level of care and attention is what sets Mana's Montessori apart from the rest.

The environment at the daycare is warm, welcoming, and stimulating. Owen is always excited to go to school, and we attribute that to the amazing atmosphere created by Mana and her team. The Montessori approach is evident in every aspect, fostering independence and curiosity in the children.

As parents, we feel incredibly blessed to have found Mana's Montessori Preschool and Child Care. Our son's growth and development have been exceptional, and we owe it all to Mana and her outstanding staff. We wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any parents looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their little ones. Trust us; you won't be disappointed!

Very welcoming, warm-hearted, and the best caregiver that I have ever seen. From our very first meeting, I knew Mana has a big heart for kids and, given her advanced education, she would provide the best level of care and education to the kids. I've found that she is very passionate about what she does and, more importantly, teaches in a very clean, safe, pleasant, and home-like environment.

As a first time mom, I did extensive research into various daycares in and around Walnut Creek. I toured a handful of places but never felt 100% confident in any of them. I didn’t get the sense that my son would be given the individualized attention I wanted or the supervision I felt comfortable with. I was feeling hopeless until I met Mana, who was so warm and welcoming. She took the time to explain her Montessori-style approach and answer any questions I had. I knew right away she was the one for us. I was a wreck the first day but she helped me through everything, calming my anxieties and updating me throughout the day. From then on, it was a seamless transition. She has daily activities for the children, plays with them, cooks for them, throws parties, does arts and crafts. She does it all. She is selfless, kind, understanding, and best of all, my son adores her. He’s learned so much and has developed amazing social skills because of her. She is a part of our family and I will be forever grateful to her. I can’t say enough good things about Mana. She is the best of the best.
