""Such a gem of a preschool in our small town! The teachers at SPA truly feel like a second family--deeply invested in each child's well-being and committed to creating an environment that is inclusive, safe, and full of meaningful play and learning. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care our children have received at SPA. We truly believe they've had one of the most special preschool experiences a child could have.
Being a working parent is hard, but knowing my kids are being cared for and loved each day brings such peace of mind."

Parent Testimonials
"SPA was Leo's first school! It was a big step for me to watch him for his first 2 years and step away and have others take care of him, but I knew he would be in good hands. From day one he was shown kindness, love and laughter. I could always tell he had so much fun at school. He was always excited to show up and never wanted to leave. SPA has paved the way for my son in how he thinks about learning. I can only hope that he continues this journey and is surrounded by educators like those at SPA"

"Sonoma Preschool Academy has exceeded our expectations. Our daughter has accelerated her learning of social skills and increased her toddler smarts due to the excellent and caring teachers, the close interaction between her and students of varying ages, and the superb facilities at Sonoma Preschool Academy. So glad that we chose Denise and her team for our daughter's first venture into school."

"I am more than proud to recommend Sonoma Preschool Academy to any family. We have sent both our daughters to SPA for several years and they have nothing but the fondest memories. Our youngest daughter is in her last year at the preschool and our oldest finished a year ago. All teachers took an active role in enhancing her education while playing and keeping her motivated and eager to learn more. She started her kinder year bringing skills beyond the standard expectations. "

"SPA has been a second home for our two children (now 5 and 7) and we have been in love with the school ever since their first day of preschool. The teachers/staff treat their students like their own and make every child feel special. Both our children have now graduated and I can honestly say they were more than prepared for Kindergarten than I ever could have imagined. SPA helped them become confident, loving, and respectful children with a love for learning. Thank you SPA!"

"After a previous preschool experience that wasn't quite the right fit for our family, we transferred to Sonoma Preschool Academy. I can honestly say it is one of my best parenting decisions I have made. I followed my instinct to SPA and it has been such a beautiful experience for my two daughters and whole family. The teachers are so warm and welcoming to the children and their caretakers every day. The teachers and staff have created a stable, warm, and stimulating environment for all of the kids. My eldest daughter especially has gained more confidence than I ever could have imagined, and I believe her teacher taught her that the confidence was inside of her all along. My younger daughter has fun everyday with friends and teachers. Soon, my son will attend SPA as well and I know that he will be in good hands. Thank you, SPA teachers and staff for taking care of my precious babies like they are your own."

"Sonoma Preschool Academy was our daughters first school experience and this year has been more then amazing. Every teacher is hands on they fill you in on every detail of everyday. They send out pictures at the end of the week which my family looks forward to every Friday. Denise is amazing she has helped us in so many ways throughout the year. Mea has made many friends and has succeeded in everything this year to listening, making friends, potty training, cleaning up, etc. My whole family loved them so much she’s going back to Pre-K next year. Thank you SPA!!”
