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

  • As a working parent sending my 18 month old off to preschool was difficult but Good Shepherd eased my nerves by the way they took the best care of my son. The director and teachers my son had were amazing! They are attentive, kind, fun, and creative. My son came home each day with stories to tell about his friends and fun activities. We even opted out of TK to keep him at GS where we knew he was safe and learning a ton while having a blast! Now that my son is now off to kinder we are excited to send our other son as soon as he turns 18 months! Can’t wait to be back and see him thrive just like his big bro!

  • Good Shepherd has been such a wonderful place for our family. The staff genuinely care about every child — you can feel it the moment you walk in. Between the thoughtful activities and the warm environment they've created, our kid has grown into someone who truly loves learning and shows real empathy toward others. We couldn't be more grateful for the impact this school has had. Highly recommend to any family looking for a daycare that provides a safe and welcoming environment.

  • My 2 year old son really enjoyed going here for daycare. The outdoor play area is one of the best around and very safe. The teachers are kind and nurturing.

  • I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Good Shepard. Our son started there at just 1.5 years old and stayed until we started public TK. Throughout his time there, the teachers poured so much into him. It’s obvious how much they care about each child and how hard they work to ensure their success and safety. I 100% credit them for potty training our son! He grew so much in his time there, not just academically, but socially and emotionally. We love Good Shepherd!

  • We spent a year and a half at the school. It was clean, well organized and the teachers were all so loving, fun and creative. My child had a wonderful experience and still talks about her Good Shepherd friends and teachers. Daily lesson plans included age appropriate academia, art, free and structured play, special theme days, and foundational Christian briefs. The school hours were helpful for working families. 100% recommend.

  • I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Good Shepherd Early Childhood Center. Our son has been there for nearly three years and our daughter has been there for the last several months. Good Shepherd truly feels like a community. All of the teachers know all of the kids, parents, and other adults in their lives. The teachers are all approachable and kind and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure all of the unique needs of each child are met in the best way. They are all collaborative with the parents on difficult days and always try and understand the "why" behind big emotions that little ones experience before jumping to time away from the group. The tenure of the teachers is also impressive, with very little turnover in the teachers. You can tell that Miss Jasmin and the team truly care about each other and the success of the school. The class sizes are small and well-staffed, which did not seem to be the case in several other pre-schools we had toured prior to GS, especially at the very reasonable monthly tuition rate and hours of operation. The activities and lessons are endless and always in a rotation to keep little minds from getting bored or overwhelmed. From trunk-or-treating, to in school farmers markets, endless crafts, sensory activities, water days, and more... Both of our kids are always thrilled to tell us about their days during pick up from school. The school feels secure and the staff are diligent in making sure the gate is locked at all times. I love that they regularly practice their safety drills, and our kids talk about how safe they feel at school with confidence. Our four-year-old is wise beyond his years, and we contribute so much of this to GSECC. Our two-year-old has had some delayed development, but she has grown leaps and bounds since starting her preschool journey here. We are so thankful for all that Good Shepherd has done for our family over the years. You will absolutely be making the correct decision in sending your child here.
