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.

I have 2 kids enrolled there. Great safe and learning environment. Staff are caring and enjoy being around the kids. The best part is that they help with potty training which can be stressful for first time parents. So kids don’t have to be potty trained when enrolled and will start when the kid is ready and the parents are ready. They prepare the kids for kindergarten. My son knew how to write and spell his first name.
Mariam AbdelmissehFeb 5, 2026Laura is extremely rude and unprofessional. I was interested in enrolling my child into their daycare. But she constantly cut me off and interrupted. Made herself seem busy and important when if fact she is not the customer. I understand having an appointment but as a parent I like to drop in because I don’t want to see you on your best behavior pretending. I want to get an accurate feel of how the school is ran. Seems to me Laura is unhappy in her job and should step down as there are plenty of jobs hiring in this community. Or she should join her Sunday service and genuinely find God. Because God doesn’t like ugly and your heart comes off as extreme ugly and unkind. Aggressive and arrogant. First impression are everything and you made an awful one for yourself and the business you represent. Shame on you. Do better. But thank you for showing your true colors. I prefer my child in a happy and positive environment.
Mrs. SMar 9, 2022Great preschool with amazing staff. I have 2 kids enrolled for over a year and they love coming here. The staff communicates well and I can tell they truly care about my kids.
Ciara BanksSep 26, 2020This preschool is amazing! I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a caring educational environment for their 2 to 5year old.
