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.

Recent parent reviews

  • Both my boys attend this school. It is the most affordable and best fit my work schedule. I feel confident dropping them off knowing that they are in safe hands. You have the option to be a volunteer “working parent” which gives me peace of mind that there is no shady business. You hear in the news of kids being mistreated and i feel like that would be hard to do where there is always a volunteer parent around watching the teacher and the aide. I love that they send you a schedule of what is planned for the day. They make sure to always have play time and arts and crafts. I highly recommend bringing your little ones here.

  • If anyone asks me for recommendation, I wouldn't think twice. CMNS is a great place with wonderful loving teachers that care so much about every single little ones. They have great programs/agenda for each age group, have large shaded safe playgrounds, and fun events throughout the year.

  • Great educational experience for young children. We had both of our children attend CMNS and the foundation that CMNS provided was a solid one. The staff of teachers were nurturing and caring to each individual student. Loved the family atmosphere and would encourage anyone interested in CMNS to check it out.

  • Central Methodist Nursery School holds a special place in our hearts. My now 2nd grader cherished his time there, thanks to the amazing teachers who made learning a joy. The genuine excitement he displayed running into one of his former teachers recently speaks volumes about the lasting connections formed. It's a testament to the school's warm and supportive atmosphere that lingers even as he progresses through grade school. Highly recommended for a positive early learning experience!

    Dawn MeadersDec 12, 2023

  • My daughter went to Central Methodist and we LOVED IT! All the teachers were so nice, patient, and thoughtful. They take great care in creating a fun, safe, and educational environment. Parents are encouraged to volunteer and be active in your children’s experience. The staff makes each day creative and entertaining. As a mother I cried the first day after dropping my daughter off- it’s so hard letting go of your babies. But this school makes it easy to let your littles grow up because you know they are in good hands. My daughter is in the 4th grade and she still talks about her teachers at Central Methodist. If you are looking for a preschool- this one is it. You and your children will love it!

  • The best experience for our son! He started as a 2 year old last year and this year is in the 3 and 4 year old class. He loves it and even when he was hesitant about started the class as a 2 year old the teachers were so supportive and helped him through those first few weeks.
