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.

  • The hours are great i had my daughter in hearts and hands Christian preschool from the age of 2 years old all the way up until she was 5 right before she went to kindergarten and i loved that their building is secure they give you key cards and they dont let just anyone take your child they the teachers are great and i really enjoyed their everyday routine its a little pricey then the neighboring daycares but its well worth it you definitely get the quality for what you pay i love that you can leave your kids few days a week, do drop offs, or all day every day care. The front desk is always do politely i would definitely recommend bringing your child here you wont regret it thank you to the staff for respecting and taking care of our children like if they were your own my daughter never showed signs of not want to be there like our previous daycare she would want to go to school and attend and didnt want to leave when it was pick up time love this preschool well worth the money

  • Great school. They help prep your child to exceed academically and in life. My oldest started the day he turned 2 and it really paid off. Our youngest is now 2 and is slowly coming out of his shell with help from his teachers and classmates! Thank you Hearts and Hands!

  • My 3year old daughter has been at Hearts & Hands for the passed 8 months and I can't express how beyond happy I am with them. I'm at complete ease every time I drop her off cause she's always super excited to go. Before I was always worried about her cause she was at a home based daycare. I'm so happy with so much progress that I've seen in her since she's been there. I'd highly recommend Hearts & Hands to anyone looking for great, dependable child care!

  • Hearts and hands is an amazing center!! My son has been going to this school since he was 2 years old and is now 4 1/2. The staff is amazing, the teachers are awesome, my son has learned so much since being enrolled at the center. They are very organized and super clean as oppose to other centers I have seen! I am looking forward to enrolling my daughter once she turns two!

  • My 3 year old twins have been going to Hearts and Hands preschool for 8 months now. We are so thankful and happy with the care that they are getting. They love everything about school. Their teacher, miss Lucy is wonderful, she is so patient and caring. All the teachers are great. Miss Regina, the director was very understanding of all our needs. They are learning so much at school, their communication and speech have excelled since starting school. If your looking for a preschool that will not only enrich your child in education but also be cared for the way you would care for your loved ones then I would recommend Hearts and Hands preschool.

  • My 4 year old son has been going to H&H for over nine months. Before that he was going to a home based day care. I was absolutely terrified of the unknown, but his teacher Ms Ana and the rest of the staff and students made the transition easy. I'm very impressed with the care, compassion and dedication of everyone involved at the daycare. As a full time working parent with very little work flexibility, this daycare comes as a dream with an outstanding schedule at an affordable price. If you are looking for a safe, compassionate and good education with values, this is the place to have your child.
