My son went to this daycare for 6 months. We saw significant progress on his communication, social and learning skills. I would highly recommend this place.Unfortunately, we had to move to Bothell and we are struggling to find a place similar to this daycare.

My daughter has been at Rainbow Learning Academy for 6 months now and we are very happy with the developmental progress hes made since. At 2.5 years old, she had a bit of a hard time adjusting to the environment since he had been taken care of my grandma, but the teachers really took their time to make him feel comfortable to the point that he doesnt want to leave some days! The facility is clean and has a great play area for outside time. The curriculum is perfect for he age and she is learning to trace letter already. We especially like the seasonal activities for holidays and spirit weeks where kids get to dress up. The director is very attentive and easy to talk to. We highly recommend.

We love the little preschool. Our daughter (age 3) was at another private preschool and was doing well but struggled because she is highly spirited and also very dyslexic. She started the year off a little worried about how it was going to go, but the staff and kids made her feel right at home. I continue to believe that this was the best possible move for her. We love the little school and are so glad to be part of this loving community

Great school with outstanding teachers! The curriculum has a great balance of play and learning. The classrooms are bright, clean and large and the outdoor area is a wonderful area for kids to run and play with each other. Its a safe, nurturing school that really does care about each child and their development. Our son loves going to Rainbow Learning Academy Academy!

Throughout my 2 years of experience, I have always been happy with Rainbow Learning and have virtually no complaints. In my experience, they have well-qualified, competent, conscientious, and kind staff; low staff turnover; good safety and health procedures; excellent communication with parents; pleasant facilities; and a fun, age-appropriate, and educational curriculum. The food at RLA is very good... healthful, varied, and tasty. The outdoor play space is merely satisfactory (IMO). In all other respects, Rainbow exceeds my expectations. I believe Im a better parent, thanks to Rainbow, in that Ive adopted some of heir ways for my own parenting toolbox.

As a parent, choosing the right childcare center can make such a difference in my overall peace of mind and happiness. I spent a good deal of time and a lot of stress considering my options and what would be best for me and my little girl. Choosing this center felt so good immediately! It is not the cheapest option ($1.500) you can find but not the most costly either. So even though the cost matters, my child matters more. The people working there are happy and engaging with all kids and my daughter. They really run a great center and you can tell by the overall vibe there and with each of the teachers. Mrs Lily is really one of a kind and the whole experience has really meant so much to me already! We are looking forward to a great year!

I switched my daughter to this school after experiencing some frustration with the Kinder Care down the street. I have so far been very happy with this Rainbow Learning Academy.The director, Lily, is very friendly and fun, and greets us by name (he remembered my name right away). The staff is friendly and helpful, and very willing to talk to you about any concerns. They are very flexible as to switching days (with notice) - for example, my daughter usually goes M, W, F, but there was a doctor appointment on a Tuesday, so they said it would be no problem for her to go M, Tu, W that week instead.I am very happy with this school, and with Lily, and would recommend it to anyone. I wish I would have started my daughter here sooner!

We moved our son to Rainbow Learning a year ago from another child care center in Bellevue. In this past year we have seen him develop his speech and social skills tremendously, plus his love for books and art has been able to blossom because of the dedication and attention from his teachers in the toddler room. The daily routine is structured well to keep the children engaged and enjoy learning at the same time. He never wants to go home!Classes there is very organized and we rest easy knowing that this facility is a clean, safe and secure environment for our child for many years to come!

The Rainbow Learning has been such a blessing to my girl! We changed 2 schools before we found RLA! Need to say that my little one has speech delay and we`ve been working with a therapist for more than a year but being at Rainbow more than 6 month gave my girl more vocabulary than she had before! I really impressed by the program what they use to improve communication skills for kids and their system works!The facility itself is a great space; very bright, very well organized and super clean! The teachers are kind, patient and engaged, as is the Director, Lilian. Its clear that she has a passion for education and that shows in her enthusiasm for instruction and education, as well as her open lines of communication with parents. Overall, Im impressed with the level of communication and engagement among both the parents and the teaching staff, and their focus on cultivating a nurturing learning environment is clear.Keep up the good work!

Can I get a sixth star, please? This is by far the best daycare our family has ever utilized they have true compassion for the children and are very communicative with the parents.My son loves all the teachers. They go the extra mile for the kids, and one can truly tell they give their heart and soul to all the kids. There is such a peace of mind knowing you can leave your child somewhere and not have to worry about their safety while you are at work.

After having an absolutely awful experience with ABC Learning Center, I was afraid to leave my son in anyone elses care. Rainbow Learning is such a nurturing environment, it makes me feel good about entrusting my son to their care!I love that Rainbow does not believe in restraining children, that is why you will not see any excersaucers or bouncers there. As a result, my son get plenty of time to play and properly socialize. Also, they actually have a legitimate curriculum where even the younger kids are learning and doing arts & crafts. He gets to fingerpaint and a lot of activities for finr motor skills which is very important.Most of all, we love the staff. The caretakers at RLA genuinely take an interest in my sons well-being. They love him and he loves them.Thank you Rainbow for taking such good care of my son.

Cant say enough about how great Rainbow Learning is!!!We have had our daughters at RLA since the fall of 2018. Over the years we have been in every class from Tiny 2s to Pre K (which was a fabulous choice to ease the transition into the public school system/schedule) and every step of the way our kiddos were adored, taught well, guided through teachable moments and as a result, they really loved going to school.RLA is an intimate environment that is big enough to offer state of the art early-education programs. The classrooms are colorful and vibrant, the facility is impeccable and the staff is second to none. Every teacher we have had over the years has been patient, kind, communicative and helpful. My daughters were able to make a special connection to each of their teachers.RLA really has been like an extended family for our girl and we feel so lucky to have had their early school years filled with so much support and caring.As a bonus, you cannot beat their amazing curriculum and very individual program what they use to teach kids!If you can get your kiddos into RLA (pro-tip: show up early for registration!) you will not regret the choice.

Absolutely love this place !!! My daughter has never been happier too! actually found the place by chance when my old daycare had a terrible fire a few years ago totally by chance. the instructors are all multilingual and super friendly. different teachers come in to actually teach the kids instead of just playing all day which I love. Also the diet is excellent, all organic and natural foods and drinks and they often cook meals. Such a relief to not have to pack a lunch any more ! And a big plus its like next door to the fire station so dont have to worry about an emergency situation as the response time would be in seconds. would definitely recommend to a friend !
