Licensing visits on record
California records 0 routine inspection visits and no visits prompted by a complaint to LITTLE SUNFLOWERS.
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.

Great loving atmosphere
Max DzitsiukMay 12, 2026It's hard to explain how much we love Johnny and Catrina. Their daycare feels like an extension of our home, with a wonderful culture that promotes the kids' explorations, imagination, and learning. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for local childcare.
Vignesh RamApr 13, 2026We have loved Little Sunflowers! It is clear that this family has a special talent for raising up happy, well-adjusted, responsible, and creative people. Our son has been attending this year and I’m continually impressed by the amount of enrichment activities that Catrina, Johnny, and Deltrina have for the kids - from art projects, to neighborhood walks, to special restaurant visits, to playing with educational toys, and interacting with the bunny Boba! We feel so safe dropping our son off every day. The team is communicative and shares updates every day in person or through brightwheel - notes on how our son are/slept, what he has been learning, how he is interacting with the other kiddos. They are clearly having fun and learning along the way. The family has also given us advice for how to tackle some of our parenting questions at home. Finally, Deltrina (the founder of the Litrle People’s Academies) plans regular meet ups for parents and kids to help foster community. Couldn’t recommend Little Sunflowers more!
Claire ParisaNov 19, 2025What a great place for the little ones! Johnny and Catrina have created the most happy and secure environment in a home setting; plus they work at engaging the children in stimulating and learning activities. Johnny's 10 years of experience as a preschool administrator prepared him to execute his vision, when he and Catrina created their own preschool; Catrina's training as a school learning specialist and aide in the public schools brings breadth and creativity to their program. As the grandma of one of the students, who has attended since February, I can see the kind of learning that happens during play and experiences. Field trips are several times per week to the public library, the local beautiful Diamond Park, a treat to go to a restaurant, and visits to interesting places around the area. The children are exposed to a wide variety of foods and they are often prepared by the children with adult supervision. All learning doesn't take place within 4 walls and these lovely people have made the walls moveable and inclusive. It is a joy to see these children developing in this setting.
sherrill laszloJul 31, 2025We sent our 4-year-old to Johnny and Catrina’s winter camp in December 2024, and he had such a great time! Johnny and Catrina are amazing with kids—they’re parents themselves, so they really get it. The house is super clean, there’s a big outdoor space for the kids to run around, and the activities were perfect for his age. Oh! And they provide great food!! Highly recommend their preschool to anyone!
Gulnoza BobokalonovaJan 22, 2025Johnny & Catrina are a delight to work with! We are so excited for their program opening in 2025. They did an amazing job managing the well-known Boulevard Little People Academy for over 10+ years, and we are so happy that families in the Dimond district will have an incredible new place for their little ones to learn and thrive at Little Sunflowers Academy!
