We understand that choosing your child’s first educational setting is a decision full of stress and complexity. Early childhood is a critical developmental time in the life of every child. A child’s first school setting impacts how they view school, education, and themselves as learners for the rest of their lives.
Our mission is to support, educate, and connect your family with East Bay Area schools* (or alternative educational settings) that match your individual values, needs, and uniquenesses. We strive to support all families in finding a “best fit” to promote your child’s immediate success within their first—and most important—educational setting.
Educational consulting isn't for every family—but our first meeting together is free, so please contact us if we can be of any help to you in your search.
No matter what your direction, we wish you the best on your journey to finding an educational setting that meets the special needs of your family and your child.
*(We focus on serving families in Oakland, Berkeley, WCCUSD, Lafayette (and neighboring districts) and the city of Alameda.)
