What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

  • Really upset from the outcome of this day/care head start program , kids will be kids some kids are better than others , but one thing is for sure if you’re working here you must have patience for the kids , one thing that I strongly feel the staff here does not have I had to leave work numerous times to come and pick my son up because he did not want to nap , like you can’t take him outside ? In the playground waste his energy there ? Like really my 2 year old that bad ? You can’t make an adult stay in once place what makes you think you’ll be able to with a 2-5 year old . Staff not the friendliest , some more friendly than others . The pettiness of this is insane they told us we couldn’t not bring in our 2 year old tomorrow for the Valentine’s Day party they’re having . Whatever super upset hope things change

  • Awesome Day care- Pre school for kids . My granddaughter loved it . Every time we pass by she wants to go say hi to Miss Yvette & Miss Angie . They definitely prepared her for kindergarten. Most important the time she attended she never once said anything negative about the staff , she felt at home with them . My granddaughter still keeps in touch with the other kids that moved on to kinder & they all feel the same . They miss Around The World . Highly recommend.

  • Dear Moms of Downey, I would like to share an unacceptable experience from my son's daycare. On Tuesday the 8th, as usual after work I went to pick up my 7 year old special needs son at Around the world (lakewood/Cherokee). When I went there at 4.11pn, not only they didn't have my son but also they didn't know where my son was. The agreement between them and me was, when my son gets dropped off from the school bus, they walk him to the daycare. The bus drops him off right in front of the entrance of the daycare. As a mom, the.moment, I realized my son is not there, i blacked out!! I regained my strength and called the school, obviously the school was closed by 4.20 when I made the call. Then i called the school bus company and they said that, since the day care wouldn't open the gates for them to enter nor pick up their calls my son was stuck in the school bus for the past 2 hours. While speaking to them, the school bus came and my son was dropped off safe!! Thanks to God. The teachers were apologizing and hugging me at the reunion, because I broke down when I saw my son. No one was able to give me an answer of why this happened. All they could say was sorry. So, I demanded an explanation. As there was noone in charge available, the next day the owner or in charge, I know her name is Susy!! Her explanation was, neither her or her staff was responsible for what happened, it was my "unfortunate situation ". I questioned her if this situation was expe5in future and her answer was "MAYBE".I asked her why was i not informed immediately when my son was not there..her reply was NO STAFF TO CALL ME, why was the gates not opened, NO STAFF, why didn't you pick up the calls from the school bus company..NO STAFF!! Also she said that their responsibility on my son is ONLY WHEN HE ENTERS THEIR BUILDING !! So basically, they decided not to provide service for my son out of the blue without me knowing!! Moms, would you send your kid here? I have moved my son to another place. THIS IS FOR YOUR INFORMATION!! I DON'T WANT ANY MOM TO GO THROUGH WHAT I HAD TO FACE THAT DAY, NOT KNOWING WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR BABY!! THANKYOU .

  • My grandson went to this amazing school.The enviroment is great ! He came here from the time he was 2years old to 5.He was already blending sounds into words. His social skills are very will developed. The teachers ,staff and administration are very professional.My granson still recalls all the wonderful things he learned and all the fun activities.And the school provides extra curriculums.I highly recommend this school it is worth it.
