Absolutely the best preschool in the entire valley! As a working mom it's stressful to entrust anyone to take care of your child. When looking for childcare options in the valley I wasn't impressed with any, that is until I found First School of the Desert. The school is clean, friendly, and inviting. The front staff answered all my concerns and provided a tour. The children and teachers in the classes were happy, singing songs, and reading. They also have an open door policy which means you can visit anytime. (Although, I would suggest in the morning hours before lunch, the kids are involved in circle time/learning activities.)

What really impressed me even before my first visit, was that the owners Mark and Dorothy answer your call. Over three decades in the valley and the owners make time for every parent (current & potential). This shows that it is not just a school or business, but rather an experienced parent answering the call of new parent, providing comfort & support as you start your child's educational journey. This is family. I dare you to find any other childcare in the valley with that kind of service! First School has become part of my family. The teachers welcome my son and me ever morning. The communication is fabulous, a note every day keeps me updated on his day. If there is a playground injury, the front office staff call me right away. The staff help get my son potty trained and celebrated with us as we said goodbye to diapers! The family fun nights and holiday celebrations help to bring together a new social network of parents, we have made almost as many friends as my son! I am so blessed to have found First School. I will be sad when my little guy graduates this school year, luckily his sister turns two next November! 

Enroll your child today! It's one of the best gifts you can give your child (as well as yourself). We adore our First School Family!!!

My son had trouble speaking and going to First School has helped him in so many ways. I appreciate First School in Cathedral City. The staff so kind and always saying hi to my son, helping as much as they can. I'm so glad my son enjoyed each day and would ask me on the ride to First school, " can I go to school". Thanks so much!!

I love First School of the Desert!  Both of my children attended First School and if I had another, I'd send him/her there too!  I love their yearly graduation ceremony, where all the children perform a dance/singing routine.  They also have yearly picnic's, family pizza night and a Christmas performance.  We signed my son up for extra curricular gymnastics classes - he LOVES Miss Gabby.  They also have dance classes as well.  
The staff and teachers are both professional and loving.  Andy loves his teacher Miss Jessica and everyone loves Miss Brianna!  First School is run by a family and it shows.   Miss Theresa and Miss Heather are always on hand should you have any concerns.
I give First School 5 stars!

My sons first day was today, at the cathedral city location. I decided to stop by on my lunch at 11:20 am which is about the time the kids eat lunch.Anyway I stood outside the door of his classroom (room 4) and o could hear him crying (I understand it was his first day ) but whAt got me upset was that a teacher (miss Jessica) was yelling at him, "stop crying ,stop crying!! Like really? I'm trusting you with my child,if you don't know how to deal or treat kids, then maybe it's time to change professions! I was so upset I left with my son in tears, thankfully the owner called me and tried to make it right. I'm sorry that my son had to go through that :(
