When looking for a daycare, I think one needs to first figure out what theyre looking for in a facility, because this wont be a one-size-fits-all scenario. For us, weve found EHLC to be the best place that meet our needs and expectations. First of all, I want my little one to have a happy and low-stress childhood. Of all the places weve tried and stayed at, our child took the least time to adjust to EHLC initially. And its also at EHLC that oftentimes my little one doesnt want to go home at pickup time because shes having such a fun time either playing and learning. Ive read about how kids look forward to going to their daycare every day, but Ive never seen that with my child at the other places shes stayed at before. With EHLC, shes indeed eager to go there every morning. So I know shes happy at EHLC. Secondly, I want my little one to grow up healthily. In other words, eat well and sleep well. EHLC provides the most delicious and diverse menus, compared with all the other places I know in the area. While many places in this area only serve chicken as "meat", EHLCs menus contain pork and beef on a regular basis, which is similar to what we make home. This diverse menu help our little one to develop a good eating habits, unlike at one other place she grew resistant to beef and pork because it was never served to the children there at the other daycare. In addition, Ms. Tang (who owns and runs EHLC) would make special treats for the little ones from time to time, such as the steamed Chinese-style buns that the kids simply love though the buns take extra time and efforts to make. When I see my little enjoy these home-made goodies at EHLC, I know Ms. Tang cares for the children as if they were her own and Im happy that my child is nurtured well every day. Thirdly, I want my little one to develop a keen interest in learning. I care less about how many words or characters my little one has picked up, though Im constantly amazed by how much shes learned at EHLC, than growing an eagerness to learn. At the other places my little one stayed at, while they all had a great curriculum, she was never interested in reading or learning, even though she had the capability and we kept reading stories to her every evening. One of the first things I noticed after placing her at EHLC was she started asking for more stories to read to her and became very interested in learning new words and characters without us nudging her. I dont know how Ms. Tang did it, but she did it. Last but not least, Ms. Tang is always available to talk with the parents about how their child is doing, at pickup time every day. Unlike a larger facility we went to before where you had to make an appointment in order to talk to the head teacher, at EHLC, you can talk to Ms. Tang every day if you want to. And she clearly knows and understands every child very well, including their personality, little gestures/expressions, etc. If youre reading this and are looking for a daycare for your little ones, I highly recommend you do a tour at EHLC and find out yourself if EHLC will become the 2nd home to your child as it has become to mine.

My daughter has been attending the Education Hill Learning Center since 2014. She is our first child, obviously, we spent a lot of time researching on daycares and we are glad that we picked the right school. The school has about 10 – 12 children and Ms. Tang, school director, is always full of energy and really care for every child. My daughter, initially a shy kid, has really opened up a lot since then. The school is bilingual, where Ms. Tang is a native Chinese while other teachers are native English speakers. By now (age 3.5), my daughter speaks both Mandarin and Chinese and can count and do some simple additions. My daughter really likes singing and dancing, and the school offers plenty opportunities for her to express herself. The school also offers craft projects and often take children for small walks around the community. My daughter really enjoys those activities, of course, with many friends she made during the school. Also, being busy parents, we really don’t have time to cook nice food and we don’t really trust vendors’ food either. Ms. Tang is a great cooker herself and she provides organic, healthy and good-tasting food. And my daughter ranks her food higher than me and my wife ;-(.

Id highly recommend this family care to parents. Teachers take good care of kids. I was worried that my son would get sick quite often in the first few months. It turned out that he only caught a cold and recovered quickly. It only took him two weeks to adjust to the new environment and now he goes to the center happily. Most importantly, the owner Janet loves her job. She likes children and is experienced in teaching little kids. My son learned to eat with spoon several days after he went to the center. He also learned to dress himself and learned good discipline there. He learned new words in English, Mandarin, and even Spanish there. Janet cooks delicious food for the kids with organic eggs and chicken. My son has a much better appetite now and gains weight. Overall Im very pleased with this learning center and would recommend it to parents who are concerned with their kids health and happiness.

My daughter has been attending Education hill learning center since 2011. She enjoys everyday and makes good friends there. I think three things make Education hill learning center a special place for young children. First, teachers teach different and appropriate materials to kids based on their ages and abilities. For example, my daughter is good at learning new words and counting numbers. The teachers realized that and taught her a lot of words. By the age of 3, my daughter can read about 80 Chinese words, and can count 1-20 in English, Chinese and Spanish. Second, they encourage students to explore different cultures and learn different languages. Third, unlike some other daycare owners, the owner Janet doesnt treat the daycare as a "business". She cook meals and feed kids with healthy materials, like organic milk, all-nature/range-free meat, low-sugar snacks...

The learning center is a very warm and caring bilingual Chinese family care, especially good for those kids that first attend daycare IMO. My 4-year old son adjusted to his schooling pretty easily and now has grown so much just after 10 months. If he wasnt the oldest one already, we could have let him staying there for longer time. Now we feel more confident to send him to a bigger pool. I think other reviewers such as Bing Hu already provided very good and honest reviews for EHLC, which saves me repeating similar words here. In short, we feel lucky and happy to have such a pleasant experience.
