Pacific Beach Presbyterian Church

This is a great place for young adults to worship. It is a very caring staff that truly cares about the community.

Review is for the INFANT ROOM:
I cannot say how grateful I am that we found a spot available at this preschool.
When we found out they had a spot open, we rushed down to see the place. We were greeted by 5 or 6 happy and smiling babies and 2 wonderful teachers. They immediately started cooing and loving with our son. We immediately knew that this preschool was they best environment for our 6 month old son.
The teacher to child ratio is perfect here 3:1. They always have 2 teachers to be able to provide love and compassion to the children.
The children learn social queues and do many arts and crafts here. I love that the teachers really create a bond with the children and treat them as if they are part of their own family. They have an outdoor play area that is safe and protected. They have very engaging toys for the children to play with.
If they have a spot open, please be sure that this is a safe and healthy environment for your child.

It’s hard to believe my daughter has attended PB Presbyterian Preschool for almost 3 years. She started in the infant room and is now in the pre-​k room. My daughter has had a great experience in each of the classrooms. The teachers are so loving, engaging and fun and the low student to teacher ratios allow for individualized attention and feedback. Feeling loved, safe and respected, my daughter has flourished here. She loves school and sometimes doesn’t want to leave. She knows all the children, all of the staff and probably all of the parents too. The school offers fun music sessions regularly and extra curricular activities if you choose to participate. I feel strongly that the preschool has provided the care and education my daughter needs to be ready for kindergarten and longer term success. Our family has benefitted greatly as well. We have made new, wonderful friendships with other families and frequently do play dates, parties and outings. I couldn’t imagine a better preschool experience for our family!

This preschool is amazing! At first I was sad to enroll my child into full time child care, but now I pick her up and she loves preschool. She has so much fun at this school. Her teacher is so nice and helpful. The new director has made so many positive changes. I strongly recommend this this preschool!

My son just graduated pre-​K here and this preschool is absolutely wonderful. The teachers are caring and friendly and make us feel welcomed every time we walk through the doors. We were so happy with the love and support this preschool had to offer. Our son comes home with all smiles after school. The director is very sweet and hard working. The preschool has helped our family feel welcomed to the pacific beach community. It feels nice knowing I am able to drop my kids off and go to work knowing that my children are safe and exceptionally taken cared of.

I started my child here when he was two years old. I was a stay at home mom until this point and had never left my kid in any kind of child care facility yet.
They were very kind and patient with my million questions as I toured the facility. They allowed me my child to sit in a class to try it out. They were flexible with our desires and concerns. We decided they would be a good fit. That first week they encouraged me to call throughout the day as many times as I wanted, to talk to my child’s teacher so I could see how he was doing!
My child has thrived there! He is now almost four years old and he still loves going there. He is learning all about his letters, numbers, colors and all that jazz. Yes, the curriculum is not as intense as other preschools… but I am fine with that. I feel like my little man knows just as much as the kids that are going to the more expensive La Jolla preschools. Yes, the building is a little outdated and could use a little modernization… but again, I am totally okay with this. I don’t think our children need fancy cool toys and gorgeous bathrooms to get quality care and to be showered with love ever day.
I am now 8 months pregnant with child number two and I plan on enrolling my new baby there when he is three months! After talking to other parents who had their children there since they were little babies, I fell secure with putting my baby there.
I fell very confident about this preschool and I am so thankful to have a place where I completely trust that my children will be well taken care of, loved and treated with grace and respect.

As a new mom, I was extremely nervous about leaving my son at daycare when I had to return to work after three months. 15 months later, he is thriving in the toddler room at Pacific Beach Presbyterian Church and Pre School. I highly recommend the school and its approach to child care. The accommodations are modest, but clean and friendly. The teachers are loving, attentive, and there’s a great student to teacher ratio. Many of the teachers have been there for 5 – 10 years. Several are native Spanish speakers and are willing to chat with my son in both English and Spanish, which is great as I love the multi-​cultural exposure. I have tremendous confidence in their care for my son, and I am truly grateful to have found such good care so close to our home.

I was going back to work and needed to place my one year old daughter in daycare. The women in the infant center at PB Presbyterian Church were sensitive to my concerns as a first timer and attentive to my daughter’s needs. They were kind, interactive and genuinely cared about my daughter’s well being and growth. They worked around her schedule and kept a daily log of her activities, diet and diaper changes. They paid attention to the details, kept the kids entertained and often had my daughter’s hair done when I came to pick her up. The women in the center are so loving and take the time to truly get to know and care for the children that come to the daycare. They even suggested we bring in family photos to post around the room for her to look at during the day. The infant room is cozy, full of toys, and constantly cleaned. I would give anything for my daughter to still be enrolled here, but unfortunately just lost my job and no longer need/​can afford for her to go.
