Parent reviews and testimonials
“Talia is an amazing teacher and leader. My son has been with her for several years and not only adores Talia, but has had huge leaps and bounds in his social, emotional and cognitive development. In addition,she's a strong communicator and listener. As a parent, I always know what’s going on with my kid and feel comfortable talking to Talia about my concerns.”

“We initially met Talia through our daughter's preschool, and she came to work with our family during the pandemic as we decided to keep our children at home. Talia was so creative in using what we had at home to create learning moments for our kids. From showing them how to explore fun things on walks or in our backyard, to executing activities like having our daughter create her own books, I was so impressed by the thoughtful balance of learning with fun. Our children thrived with Ms. Talia. Our daughter's kindergarten teacher remarked at how well prepared our daughter was for kindergarten (and she hadn't been in a formal classroom type setting for 18 months). All the credit goes to Ms. Talia for being an engaging teacher and someone our children really resonated with. We are thankful for Ms. Talia's role in our children's lives every day!”

“When my son transitioned to The Julin School, we noticed an exponential learning curve in his language acquisition and emotional skills. Talia does an amazing job with toddlers (my son was 2.5 when he started with her) and is so patient with the kiddos. We love that she incorporates books, art, and outside time into her curriculum. She's also reliable and open for longer hours and more days than the larger daycare facilities - as a dual working-parent household, we definitely appreciate that! The daily reports with what my son ate, how long he slept, and what he learned, along with pictures throughout the day, are reassuring to know how much fun our son is having in her care. Reliable, punctual, patient, and communicative - Talia and her school is everything we look for in a daycare facility and teacher."

"Talia is a superstar educator in our eyes. Her abilities to balance play and education are remarkable. I cannot express how grateful we are for her commitment to nature-based play, prioritizing kind behavior in group play and positively managing conflicts amongst kids. Whether it's regular walks to new parks and open fields, nature-inspired crafts, sand play, reading or a 'learning circle' for learning new things, our kid comes home happy with lots of experiences to share. As a parent, it is important for us to ensure that my child receives a well-rounded education and experiences a nurturing environment. She focuses on joyful experiences, active engagement, and personally designs activities around fine motor skills and large motor skills that stimulate their cognitive abilities, social skills and physical dexterity. We have seen our child thrive since he started going to Talia's daycare. He also very eagerly looks forward to going there every day.
By combining the best of educational theories with her own expertise, Talia fosters a rich learning environment that nurtures curiosity and critical thinking for our child. She has been able to recognize our child's strengths and has been our diligent partner in his growth and development journey. We are happy that our child goes to this nurturing, engaging, and intellectually stimulating environment that has contributed immensely to his growth.
