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.

Janay StarlingJun 14, 2025love love love Bakersfield play center, my son has been apart of the school since he turned 2 years old! Such amazing staff family oriented, I know my baby boy is in good hands! Don’t be discouraged by the location it is a hidden gem <3
Karena ManrriquezgJul 27, 2024I went there as a child and now I have grown children who went there.
amy haltermanDec 17, 2023Both of my daughters attended and one still attends BPC. Without a doubt it is one of the best decisions my wife and I have made for our children’s education. With an excellent staff and a great learning atmosphere BPC is an excellent choice.
marcos austinOct 25, 2019My daughter attended this preschool for two years. We all absolutely loved it. I love how hands on it lets parents be and all the amazingly cool things kids get to do! Fieldtrips every month. Holidays are super fun. Kids have a vegetable garden in the back and pets in the classroom. The teachers are so warm and loving and attentive. We put her in this school because she was what I felt delayed on speech. Her doctor didn't say that but I felt that way and she has learned so much and just grown a lot. It's also super affordable ❤️❤️ love all the BPC staff❤️
