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
My daughter started going to Free To Be when she’s 3. It’s been one year. She has learned a lot and been happy everyday. The principal and the teachers are great. I’m very glad that I found this school. They don’t have too many days off which is good for the working parents. I also really appreciate that they pick up the phone every time I called. They have preschool and kindergarten program. The tuition is very affordable. A lot of space for the children indoor and outdoor. Small class size which I love it! During summer, they have the special summer program that there’s fun activity almost everyday. Highly recommended! We plan to send my second kid to this school when she’s potty trained.
Sammi ChenMay 26, 2023My 5 year old daughter attended Free To Be since she was 3 and she loved it. The teachers are great and patient.
