Raising Stars Preschool — Daycare & Preschool in Vernon, British Columbia

What parents say

• Jesylin Rae

  My son has attended Raising Stars for two years and I wish he could remain there for the duration of his academic years. The moment you walk inside, you're welcomed by a friendly atmosphere and greeted by a clean, organized, fun environment filled with singing, laughter, and the occasional dinosaur sounds. All of Ms. Sewell's staff members make you feel as if you are part of a big family, and they sincerely care for all the children in attendance, even siblings who come for drop-off or pick-up. They really go above in beyond in keeping our children safe through safety measures such as; a strict sign in/out program, secure door access, and regular fire drills. They share fire drill times through a secure APP which only family and staff have access to and also includes pictures and event updates.During the course of his preschool experience, Ms. Ziola has had a positive influence on my son's social delevopment, his confidence, and his potty training skills. Because of the staff's support, he has really come out of his shell and is fully prepared for kindergarten. Thank you so much Raising Stars team! You are all so amazing! I appreciate the impact you have made not only on my son but on our family as a whole!

  Our son is completing his second year at Raising Stars and he absolutely loves it there! We had a hesitant start in the first year with my son being on the shy side but Sam and her team were welcoming and accommodating with my son and now he loves going! I really enjoy how they structure the days in the school and the different activities they do within the community too. They have preschool and daycare options so its great for working families. I always feel secure leaving my son there and we will miss them when he goes to kindergarten. If you're looking for an clean, safe, inclusive space, especially if your child needs accommodations, then I highly recommend Raising Stars!

  Best preschool ever !! Raising stars has far exceeded any and all of my expectations throughout the 3 years my child has been enrolled here. They go above and beyond in all aspects of the care, education and adventure they provide. The environment is warm and welcoming and my child has cultivated lasting relationships with the educators and fellow students. My child’s confidence has grown exponentially since being there and it has been a joy to witness all the milestones she’s met, and I know raising stars has been a huge contribution to her growth. We will be so sad when our time with raising stars is done but will be sure to visit because we just love them all so very much !

  The environment Raising Stars Preschool provides is truly a home away from home. I am continually impressed with their attention to detail when it comes to each child’s individual needs as well as encouraging them to complete independent tasks within their ability. My daughter has been in attendance since September and absolutely loves it. She is quite shy, but I have seen her confidence grow immensely and has quickly made friends with all of her classmates (and teachers too!). Every day she looks forward to the different activities the teachers plan and comes home excited to tell me about her day. I can’t say enough amazing things about Raising Stars! Thank you Samantha for all of your hard work :)

  My oldest son, who was diagnosed with autism, attended Raising Stars Preschool for two years before starting kindergarten. Now, his younger brother Ethan currently attends Raising Stars while we await an autism assessment for him as well. Throughout the years, Samantha and her team have gone above and beyond to support both of my children with unwavering patience, compassion, and understanding. They’ve created a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment where my boys have been able to learn, grow, and feel genuinely accepted. I feel grateful to have found such a great preschool with a wonderful team that eases my anxious mind!
