The Muse Academy consistently delivers high quality care and education. The staff is organized, communicative, and genuinely invested in the well being of the children they serve. My family will always appreciate the wonderful experience and the meaningful growth in our sons confidence, independence, and social skills. It is an excellent program that I highly recommend to other families.

The Muse Academy offers high quality, affordable child care. The staff members are professional, affectionate, and knowledgeable. For the first time, my three year old finally loves coming to school. The curriculum is fun, engaging, and intentional. The school communication is great and I would recommend this center a thousand times over to anyone seeking child care in the Long Beach area.

I had both my kids at Muse Academy. The teachers are kind and friendly and the environment is fun for the kids with lots of activities and special celebrations for families.

Our son has been going to Muse Academy for 1 year now and we are so happy with his growth, development and the care he receives. All of the teachers are wonderful and genuinely enjoy engaging with the children. There is regular communication through the Brightwheel App of what they are doing during the day, photos, snacks, meals, naps, and potty/diaper changes. Also, there is always an open line of communication with Ms. Maile (director), the staff and parents which I really appreciate. If there is an issue (which my child is not perfect!), we are notified and work together to find a solution. Most importantly, when we pick up my son in the afternoons he is always happy which makes us feel much better as working parents.

We started here in August 2023 and my daughter loves it. The teachers all care a lot and take good care of all the kids. They make and provide all the food there and my daughter eats almost everything! It makes it very easy not to worry about prepping food. It’s also the only daycare we could find that opens at 7am so we can actually drop her off and get to work on time! It works great for our family! They also post lots of photos and are very play based.

My daughter has been attending Muse Academy for 1 year now and started at 6 months old. She absolutely loves it! The staff is very kind and I love seeing her light up when she arrives each morning! Thank you!

I was on a long extensive journey trying to find a daycare/preschool for my child until I found The Muse Academy. When I toured or checked out other facilities, there was always one or few red flags that made my confidence in these places fall. It was either seeing no kids at all during the tour, or also teachers or staff not interacting or trying to with my child during the tour or also as a busy parent already, some expected for me to provide all meals for my child. When I toured The Muse Academy, I loved everything about it. The classrooms, the environment and although my child was not yet enrolled, I saw interaction from the teachers or staff with him and that made me love this place more. On another plus side, they use the Brightwheel app as well! Daily updates on your child with potty breaks/diapers changes, naps, meals etc is a plus. As a parent we already have a slight anxiety on how our kids are doing wherever they may be and this app Brightwheel helps us to know how our child is doing. One thing I’ll also add, is you can tell the staff and teachers love working here as well, plus if you happen to catch a glimpse of the children during the tour you will see that they are happy and playing and that is very important. They also work with Crystal Stairs and I believe also Children’s Home Society as well. I hope to keep my child here as long as I am able to 🙏🏼

We are so grateful for The Muse Academy and their incredible staff. They have always been accommodating of our son’s developmental delays, and we have seen great improvements in his abilities throughout our time here. The teachers and staff are so caring and engaged, and we love getting to see all of the updates throughout the day on their Brightwheel app. We highly recommend The Muse Academy for any family who is looking for a safe and nurturing place for their kiddo.

2024-03-20T14:46:25.107Z

My tour of The Muse Academy was truly delightful. The teachers' genuine connections with the children are evident, showcasing their eagerness to contribute to their development. Speaking with another parent during pickup only affirmed my positive impressions; they spoke highly of the teachers' effective communication and noted visible progress in their child's development. It's remarkable that many children have been part of the school since infancy. Additionally, I appreciate the variety of events hosted throughout the year and the school's nature-based playground adds another layer of charm to the experience. I'm excited to enroll my child here and I eagerly anticipate updating this review as time unfolds.

2024-03-09T00:59:57.940Z

Every time I visit Muse I have a great experience. Teacher are friendly and very interactive with children. Im always greeted with a smile and asked if I need anything. I love to see the kids happy and in action.

2024-03-08T18:58:41.011Z

With so many crazy things happening in this world, it’s hard to find a good place to put your babies. This school makes me feel so safe and that my kids are in good hands. They keep me updated about everything going on with them and I feel so much better when they send me pics and I know they’re alright.

2024-03-08T18:46:42.591Z

Great school! You can tell the teachers are passionate about what they do and they really care about the kids. I love that they send pictures and updates, and they include the family in events too! I always tell people about this awesome center.

2024-03-05T06:39:40.300Z

The Muse Academy is an absolute gem. Teachers and Director are always kind and gracious!

2023-11-17T17:19:08.251Z

Both of my children have attended Muse. The staff is friendly and attentive. They have outdoor space and do a lot of family events (open house, parent night, special family activities for holidays). I really appreciate how much they love and care for my babies!

2023-11-17T15:44:44.739Z

Our son has been here since he was just over one, and he has flourished. His teachers are so kind, attentive, and patient, and his curriculum and activities are fun and engaging. He’s almost three now and loves going to school. The daycare is always clean and organized. We were truly fortunate to get into Muse!

2023-11-16T23:17:19.257Z

Our son has significant developmental delays and Muse academy does a great job meeting our child’s needs and understanding our family’s situation. Many of the staff members have become close partners in our child’s on going growth and development. We love Muse Academy and our grateful everyday for their teachers and staff.

2023-11-16T23:12:46.461Z

Great Facility!! My son has been going since he was 2 and he’s 4 now. My daughter was 11 months and she’s just over 2 now. They communicate with an app which I love! Many events for the parents to come and enjoy everyone’s company. The staff is just amazing with all the kids and very attentive I couldn’t have chosen a better school for my kids🫶🏻

2023-11-16T22:54:17.800Z

Both of my toddlers attend Muse Academy. We love how the school is conducted, our kids are happy at drop off and pick up!!!! teachers are lovely and will support you and your child through any transition, my kids had to change Day Cares as their previous DC closed down. We were so lucky to have found this place, Teachers helped my kids fit right in, Ms Ana has been extremely supportive of my 2 year olds potty training transition. She also supported us help my 2 year old navigate out of rough playing with his classmates. I particularly love how much they encourage kids to be one with nature, they have a huge backyard and kids get a great share of time outdoors, they also have a wonderful gardening program, helping kids be part of growing plants, caring for them, observing all insects that visit these plants, and plucking fruits and having a meal out of them. We live in an apartment so this in particular is truly priceless for me. My 2 year old always comes home with shoes full of sand =D I love their flexibility towards kids bringing in home cooked meals as well, some of the DC I visited didn't allow any food from home which I thought was too extreme. Overall I love the balanced care Muse has given my kids, its a safe environment, with lot of experience based learning for kids and learning with fun and play!

Being a first time mom I’ve searched and read reviews after reviews to find the right school for my son. I’m very big with energy and I know every parent that has a child that goes to this school can agree that their kids are very happy here. I’m not going to lie I couldn’t drop off my son the first week he started because I was super anxious. But as I was able to pick him up after school, I noticed how comfortable and relaxed my son after school. & honestly that’s all I need. I love their staff, Ms Maile is amaaaaazing😍 the best part about this school ? They focus on PLAY before giving kids an actual lesson plan to learn which I think is top tier! They allow kids to be kids, that is super important to us.We are so glad to find The Muse Academy 🤩 thank you 🙏🏽

2023-11-16T22:41:50.586Z

I love the nursery!....the staff & director are wonderful ...i would recommend the Muse Academy to anyone who wants there child to have the experience of there life*. Go Muse Academy...Go!

2023-11-16T22:30:40.226Z

Daughter has been attending The Muse Academy for 3 years. The level of patience and attention to my kid makes me happy. I love the Brightwheel app they use where updates of meal, potty breaks and any other activities throughout day is updated along with pictures. Throughout the year there are family events and fundraisers that are pretty neat. My kid starts TK next year and Muse Academy has definitely prepared her for school environment.

2023-11-16T22:28:45.178Z

The Muse Academy is an amazing learning academy and a great head start for toddlers. My son had started just a few weeks ago and there’s already a change in his behavior and him being around other kids. This Academy prioritizes letting parents know anything that happens there through their app and i think that’s wonderful since it’s logged perfectly. It’s definitely not like any other I highly recommend

2023-11-16T22:26:20.833Z

Muse Academy is AWESOME! My two year old is excited for school everyday and can't wait to see his teachers. He practically runs in every morning 😂. The staff is kind and caring and always provides updates throughout the day. It's clear they love kids and provide them with fun and engaging activities.

2023-11-16T22:25:49.464Z

My child has been going here for 3 years. She has been in each class. All of the teachers here are so great, caring, and attentive. Lots of family events and opportunities to interact with the center. Good hours of operation to work with my schedule. Staff are communicative and work with child and family for growth and success of the children. Plan on sending my future children here.

2023-11-16T04:04:12.346Z

Since January of 2023 we have been thrilled with our experience at Muse Academy. As parents, finding a safe and nurturing environment for our child was our top priority, and we couldn't be happier with our choice.The dedicated teachers and Principal (Ms. Kim, Ms. Nikki and Ms. Maile) truly go above and beyond to ensure every child feels loved, valued, and engaged. The facility itself is impeccable. It's bright, colorful, and filled with age-appropriate toys, books, and learning materials. Our daughter has thrived under their guidance and has developed both socially and academically. The daily activities are well-planned, stimulating, and tailored to each child's individual needs and interests. Communication with the staff and management is outstanding. We receive regular updates on our child's progress, including photos and videos, which really puts our minds at ease throughout the day. The open-door policy allows us to drop in at any time, and we appreciate the transparency and accessibility of the staff. In summary, we wholeheartedly recommend Muse Academy to any parent seeking a top-notch daycare. It's a place where our child feels loved, valued, and excited to learn. Thank you, Muse Academy, for providing such a wonderful experience for our little one! 🙏

2023-11-16T00:12:25.101Z

Our daughter has been attending here since January 2023 and she/we absolutely love it! The staff are all very friendly, professional and enthusiastic, our daughter is able to socialize, learn and develop across a number of different areas, as well as participate in fun activities. We get regular updates everyday to report on what she's doing, eating, photos, videos etc which are amazing. Appreciate all of the teachers and the hard-work that is put in everyday to make sure our daughter is safe and developing!

2023-11-14T01:45:20.211Z

We have been sending our kiddo to Muse since he was just under 2 and he’s now 4. The staff is fantastic, very communicative through the Brightwheel app which is an amazing way to see what they’re doing all day. There are special events for most holidays that give the families a chance to meet each other and the kiddos to show off their work and their classrooms. It’s big enough that we know our kid is being exposed to a diverse group of kids, but small enough that we know he is being cared for and not lost in the crowd.

2023-11-09T16:45:16.709Z

The Muse Academy is a wonderful preschool for my son. The school does so much for the parents and has special events for holidays! We love the Muse Academy and will be sad when it is time to go to the elementary school.
