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.

My son loved this school and the teachers, Ms. Aaliyah and Ms. Stacie were amazing and sweet. I also enjoyed speaking to the director Ms. Kelly. Unfortunately, the school closed down with their last day being 11/26/25, the day before Thanksgiving. It broke my heart for the kids and the teachers especially since my son started to be excited about going to school everyday and talked about all of his friends. From reading the other reviews this isn't the first time it closed down with short notice. I wish Ms. Kelly, Ms. Aaliyah, and Ms. Stacie the best of luck!
Judi SaldivarFeb 5, 2026We are absolutely thrilled with Excelsior preschool! The teachers are caring, patient, and truly invested in each child's growth and development. Our son has blossomed in their care, making new friends and developing a love for learning. The curriculum is engaging, and the activities are both fun and educational. We feel grateful to have found such a wonderful preschool community. Highly recommend!
ROM EOSep 19, 2025We love Excelsior Preschool!! The school is clean, organized, and very welcoming. Director Ms. Kelly is kind and runs everything smoothly. Our child loves going to school and has learned so much. Teachers Ms. Aaliyah and Ms. Stacie are patient, caring, and great with kids. We struggled with potty training at other schools with no progress, but at Excelsior, the teachers guided our child well and success came quickly. We were so surprised and grateful. The balance of learning and play is just right, and communication with parents is great. We're so happy we found this school and highly recommend it to any family!
Doris HuangSep 18, 2025We’ve been part of this preschool community for nearly two years, and I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience. The teachers are incredible - so warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and happiness. It’s been amazing to watch my son thrive socially, emotionally, and academically in such a nurturing environment. The staff goes above and beyond to make learning fun and meaningful, and I’ve always felt confident that my child is in loving and capable hands. We’re so grateful to have found this special place!
Jayna DonayreJul 22, 2025We love Excelsior Preschool Torrance! The quality of education our kiddo gets here is amazing, this school is so intentional about how they care for each student. The facility is always clean and maintained. We also love how inclusive and diverse their curriculum is and how involved the parents are. The staff here is beyond kind and caring, its wonderful to know that our kiddo is safe, loved and thriving while at school.
Ashley DemshkiApr 11, 2024I like excelsior preschool, the staff are very friendly and helpful, quick to respond. The teachers are skilled and communicate very well. The facility is very clean and bright. The bathroom is clean although most preschool bathrooms are not very impressive. In general I like how they manage the school. Keep on doing what you do.
