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
Our 2-year-old (now 3-year-old) has been going to Gan Israel for preschool for eight months now -- since our family moved to Petaluma -- and both we absolutely love it. He's excited to be there every morning, happy when we pick him up at the end of the day, the teachers are fantastic and warm and it's a very safe, friendly, play-based environment. Each day it's like we're dropping him off into a warm hug. Our family loves the community at Gan Israel and we will be sending our newborn baby there for preschool as soon as he's old enough.

What kind of child care licence does GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL hold?

How many children can GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL care for?

How often has California inspected GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL?
- California records 2 inspection visits to GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL, the most recent on October 1, 2024 and the earliest on record July 31, 2023.

Has California visited GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL in response to a complaint?
- California records no complaint-driven visits to GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL. That means no concern prompted a visit on the public record, which is not the same as a clean inspection history: the state does not publish what its visits found.
Who holds the licence for GAN ISRAEL PRESCHOOL?
- The licence is held by CONGREGATION B'NAI ISRAEL. California lists the licensee separately from the facility name, so the two often differ. The facility is in Sonoma County.
