Kara Diaz, a parent from our 2014-2015 Pre-K Class says . . . "Love of Learning Preschool has been a true blessing to our family. I had looked at a handful of preschools, and none of them felt "right" for what I was hoping to find for my then 3 year old son. From the moment I walked into LOL I knew we had found the perfect fit. My son has a late birthday, and all of my worries about him being the youngest immediately disappeared after just spending a few moments with Dreanne and LoriLea. My son not only looked forward to school each day, but missed it during breaks and summer. I watched as his personality flourished, and he gained more confidence within the nurturing and loving environment provided at LOL. The smaller classroom size allowed the teachers to attend to each student's needs and learning abilities. My son can recognize and write all of his letters numbers, and is more than prepared for starting TK in the fall. We could not have asked for a better preschool or more caring teachers for our son than what we found at Love of Learning." 

Holly Snyder, a parent from our 2012-2013 Pre-K Class, our 2013-2014 3 Yr. Old Class, and TK teacher at Rock Creek Elementary School says . . . "I can honestly not say enough good things about Miss Dreanne, Miss LoriLea and their LOL preschool program.  As a parent, I have watched my children grow into young learners, filled with confidence, enthusiasm, and joy under the care of these two amazing women.  The classroom environment is a perfect balance between social, emotional, developmental, and academic practice tailored perfectly for these little learners.  As a teacher of several LOL alumni, I can testify that these children have come to me with a toolbox full of skills needed for the rigorous TK/K standards here in Rocklin.  Most of all, what I have seen in my own children, and in my students is that their start at LOL preschool has been the beginning of a true Love of Learning."  April 2014


Diana Watkins, a parent from our 2013-2014 Pre-K Class says . . .  "I can't say enough good things about Love of Learning Preschool and its amazing teachers—Dreanne Broadway and LoriLea Dahl.  We found LOL through the recommendation of a friend when my husband and I were looking for a program with a smaller class size for our youngest son.  The one-on-one attention has been amazing for both his social skills and his academics.  The smaller student to teacher ratio allows the teachers to give a lot of attention to each child, and really attend to each child's unique social needs.    Plus, they're able to tailor the academics to each student—giving more material when a student is ready for it, and slowing down when necessary.  Our son is already recognizing sight words, and, using his "word families" is able to sound out simple words.  We are very grateful to have found such a wonderful program with two incredibly loving and talented teachers."  March 2014

Beth Maeyama, a parent from our 2011-2012 Pre-K Class says . . .  "I am so happy to have found Lol Preschool!!  I can't say enough good things about it.  Dreanne and Lorilea are the perfect balance of academics and a loving and nurturing environment. My daughter is more prepared for kindergarten than my other two children were by milestones. The best part is that it's all exposed to them in a fun way. My daughter comes home singing all the songs they learn and loves her school.  Amazingly, she has a dozen or so words she can read on her sight words, can count by 5s, knows coin value, and I love that they say the pledge every morning!  What I love the most about the program is how whatever they are learning all ties in together, and I feel that builds a better foundation.  The letter of the week goes with the story and that goes with the craft and that ties in with the gross motor skill, and so on. This school has far exceeded my expectations.  Your child will thrive and be so ready for kindergarten!!"  April 2012

Lindsay Culver, a parent from our 2011-2012 Pre-K Class says . . . "I would love to give a testimonial because I couldn't be happier with LOL!! 
I was specifically looking for a nurturing environment that would prepare my son for kindergarten and LOL has far exceeded my expectations!  Christian LOVES going to school and LOVES his teachers!  I am shocked that he is already sounding out words, can write his name, count well beyond 30, recognize numbers beyond 100 and letters of the alphabet (upper and lower case) and listen to instruction from teachers.  This is my son's first experience with school or any organized activity. Dreanne and Lorilea run a VERY loving, organized, safe and fun school, which is the perfect environment for children to absorb academics.  I am completely confident that my son will easily transition to kindergarten and excel thanks to Love of Learning Preschool!"  April 2012

Diana Costello, a parent from our 2011-2012 Pre-K Class says . . . "My daughter loves attending LOL Preschool!  She has fun and always comes home singing the songs she learned.  I love how much fun she has, but I also love how much she is learning!  She is already learning things my other two kids did not learn until Kindergarten.  I know she will be very prepared for Kindergarten and, in some areas, ahead.  Thank you!"  March 2012

Winter Hungerford, a Kindergarten Teacher at Breen Elementary School says . . . "I have had children who have come to me after going to Dreanne’s and Lorilea’s in home preschool ready to be in Kindergarten. They were ready to learn and  they were ready to interact with other children. Dreanne has a teaching credential. Both Dreanne and Lorilea are attuned to the needs of their children and they are committed to providing a sound program that will prepare their children to enter kindergarten."   - March 2011

Stacey Jackson, a 3rd Grade Teacher at Breen Elementary School says . . .  "Dreanne and LoriLea have both served as parent volunteers in my classroom.  I worked closely with them as they helped struggling students, taught art docent lessons, and basically did whatever needed to be done in my room.  Their manner with children is calm, nuturing and always positive.  You can see the pure joy in their faces as they work with kids.  These women are MEANT to work with, nuture, and teach children.  Their own children are perfectly behaved, well-adjusted kids who will benefit our society someday.  I'm certain they will have the same effect on kids who are fortunate enough to attend their preschool.  Dreanne and LoriLea have a gift.  They will create an environment where children are loved, respected, and always learning.  I am sure of it."  - March 2011

Ashley Eckenburg, a 1st Grade Teacher at Breen Elementary School says . . .  "I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with Dreanne Broadway and LoriLea Dahl.  I have known Dreanne for the past 12 years and LoriLea for the past 2 years.  They have both worked in my classroom and with my own students and are both caring and loving individuals.  They are kind, creative, professional, and organized.  They have a way with students that makes each child feel loved and successful in whatever the task is they are working on.  I wish I had a child that I could place in their preschool program.  Any child that is lucky enough to be enrolled in Love of Learning Preschool is going to have a positive and wonderful first exposure to school." - March 2011
