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

  • The teachers are incredibly warm, patient, and truly care about each child's growth. The facility is clean, safe, and filled with engaging learning materials. Our child comes home every day with a big smile, eager to share what they learned. We’ve seen amazing progress in their social skills and confidence.

    Xiaomeng LinMay 21, 2026
  • It is a very shame that the staff are extremely incompetent and incoherent especially Jerry Yang and Sandy Mc., that must respect every child and adult. Their schooling is also extremely well behind academics compared to all other facilities by which Kai Ming fails in all aspects of school standards. The building has millions of violations including the smell and visual of mildew and mold, in addition to pest infestation. What a pathetic place and staff. An extremely horrible business.

  • We have had such a wonderful experience with Kaiming Head Start - Broadway Center on Battery Street. This school has provided my child with so many opportunities to grow, learn, and build confidence in both social and intellectual skills. Since attending, I have seen tremendous improvement in my child’s ability to communicate, interact with others, and explore new ideas with curiosity. What I love most is how much effort the teachers and staff put into creating fun and meaningful activities that keep the children engaged and excited to learn. They encourage the kids to explore the world around them through hands-on experiences, creative play, and educational activities that make learning enjoyable. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in such a caring, nurturing, and supportive environment every day. I am very grateful for the dedication of the teachers and staff, and I highly recommend Kaiming Head Start to any parent looking for a warm and enriching place for their child to learn and grow.

  • Love the school love the staff. My kids have been there since they were six months till they turned five, I really do recommend the school. They would be learning how to use utensils to how to walk to their ABCs and numbers. I have nothing bad to say about the school eve families like their kids to learn learned another language. This is the school. I would recommend they will learn sign language. They will learn Chinese in English and some schools. They have Spanish teachers as well. I give them five stars families to go check it out.
