    My son attended here from age 1 to 2.8yrs old. It took some time getting use to as he was used to being at home with my family. But in the end he really opened up and loved his teachers and friends. Speaking happily about them daily, and sometimes taking his time to leave as he'd like to keep playing. He really cherished Ms.Alo, Mr.Gio, and Ms.Diana. I only switched him to a preschool near me due to the proximity and so he could have some friends going to the same elementary school. However, whenever I drive by Discovery Isle he tells me he wants to go there ("I want to go to daycare now!"). I also am enrolling my second baby to attend here soon, knowing he will be in good hands.

    My son attended Discovery Isle Poway for 1 year and 8 months. We are very happy generally with the daycare center. Pros: - High level of education in shapes, phonics, basic math, etc. - High level of organization and care. - Convenient hours. Open till 6 PM. - Large playground. - Many toys inside. - No LGBT/DEI agenda. At least none that I saw. - High safety standards. Cons: - High tuition price. Even at age 4 you pay more than $20K a year (Jan 2025). Backup daycare cost is $120/day. - I dislike their "citizen of the world" emphasis. Many countries in the world hate us. I don't think learning Spanish at age 4 is helpful. I rarely saw US flag there. I'd much rather they taught loving US and being good citizens. Overall, we were very happy with them and our son is in school now.

    We have been so impressed with Discovery Isle as a preschool since starting with them at the beginning of the year. Our daughter has been very spirited since birth, and can be quite high maintenance at times. Her teachers (Miss Alo and Miss Kali) are loving, patient, kind, and are exceptional at giving parents updates and pictures of their kiddo throughout the day and week. The school itself have so many fun theme days and events that they put on. I was worried about my babe's transition from a home daycare with 3 kiddos to a facility daycare, but because of how wonderful Discovery Isle has been, it's been a dream!

    Our Son going to Discovery Isle, Crek Rd Location from last 2.5 Year. We are very happy with the school. 1st level Ms Monika and in second level Ms Denis, Ms Adi and Ms. Sharelyn are rock start teachers. During morning drop off our son is very excited to go to school, which tells how much he enjoys. Front Desk staff is also very helpful, organized and run the operations smoothly.

    We are so grateful for the incredible teachers and curriculum at Discovery Isle Preschool and Daycare in Poway. The educators are truly dedicated and go above and beyond to create a stimulating and supportive atmosphere. Our child comes home excited to share what they've learned each day, from early literacy and math concepts to science and art. The activities are thoughtfully planned and age-appropriate, fostering a love of learning. We've seen significant positive growth in our child's development since enrolling. Thank you, Discovery Isle team!
