El Cajon Wesleyan Infant Care-Preschool

My son has been at this school from the age of 11 months to 5 ½ years. I am so sad that we will be leaving in two months to move on to Kindergarten at another school.
This is a play-​based Christian preschool. Your child’s development as a God loving human being is central but it is not shoved on you as a parent. The kids learn to pray before meals, sing Sunday school songs and go to chapel every Friday for a Bible lesson. Most important they are learning the social skills kids need to learn so badly before going to elementary school.
The teachers and administrators are caring and kind, gentle yet firm and just plain loving towards the children. They are always willing to work through any problems and offer advice.
Breakfast and lunch are included in the price and they are wholesome meals. My son and his friends eat vegetables every day and through positive peer pressure have learned to like things they may have never tried before. Any special dietary requests are taken seriously.
They will also use your cloth diapers if requested. That was a huge selling point for me as the other daycares in the area would not touch them.
Another plus is the fun activities they do for parents on Mother’s and Father’s Day. The church itself puts on a Mother’s Day luncheon that is fabulous. There is always a speaker and a lovely lunch with the children. For Father’s Day they hold a barbecue/​game day on the field. They also have a Christmas program and an End of the Year Program/​Graduation. They’re all wonderful and a lot of fun.
Thank you El Cajon Wesleyan for such an amazing experience!

We enrolled my grandson at El Cajon Wesleyan preschool at 3 yrs old, he is now 4 yrs old. He loves it so much and is always happy to go to school. Their approach to the children they have under their care is wonderful, they have an awesome staff of teachers, and are very caring, and loving. They provide many hands on experiences to the kids as part of their teaching, and many creative, and fun activities. The staff is very responsive and caring towards family members as well as the kids. I take my grandson to either pick him up, or drop him off frequently and not only is he smiling, I can see that all the other children are smiling and happy as well. Something we did not always experience when we toured other preschools prior to enrolling him at El Cajon Wesleyan. I also see the teachers and other staff members very involved and playing with the kids. I can not say enough about how wonderful this preschool is, we knew it was right the moment we first toured and the director sat right down on the floor and took time talking with my grandson about his favorite topic ‘dinosaurs”, before he even started the tour and information session with us. This preschool is a true gem, and a blessing to our grandson, and our family. It was his first time going to preschool, and it is so wonderful knowing he is being cared for with love, and happy, when he is there.
