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.

Marley's Preschool has been such a perfect fit for our daughter. She genuinely loves going, so much that she actually gets upset on the mornings she doesn't have school. What sets Marley's apart is the balance of play and academics. A lot of the preschools we toured beforehand felt more like daycare with free play all day, but Marley's manages to make learning genuinely fun instead of feeling like "school." Her progress this first year has blown us away. She comes home singing songs and rattling off letters and numbers we didn't even realize she'd learned. The teachers are attentive, warm, and clearly love what they do. Getting photo updates throughout the day is also such a small thing that makes a huge difference. It's so reassuring as a parent to see her happy and engaged while we're at work. The fun extras (beach days, pool days, bubble day, popsicle day!) make it even better. We're planning to keep her at Marley's through TK. Couldn't be happier with our choice.
Monique ZakyAug 6, 2026Both of our kids attended Marley’s Preschool from ages 2 to 5, and it became such a special place for our family. They both have so many happy memories there and especially loved the beach days, pool days, and shave ice days. As parents, we really appreciated getting pictures and updates throughout the day. It always made us feel connected and reassured knowing they were having fun and being well cared for. What stood out most was how much the teachers cared about the kids. They knew each child, were genuinely invested in them, and also took the time to know all of the parents. Marley’s always felt warm, personal, and welcoming, and we’re very grateful both of our children got to spend those years there.
Paul 31883abdelsayedAug 5, 2026I can not say enough good things about Marley’s! Both of my children are Marley’s graduates, most recently my 5 year old son and both have had amazing experiences. We were not only impressed by the attentive and kind staff but the attention to detail and the focus on academics. Both of my children attended Marley’s through TK and entered Kindergarten beyond prepared. Love every single thing about this school
Sasha PrattAug 3, 2026Marley’s was amazing for our daughter. We highly recommend.
Lauren VeceAug 1, 2026Both of my children love going to school here. They are always happy and properly cared for and the all of the staff truly love what they do.
Jake RubinoJul 17, 2026We had an amazing experience at Marley’s Preschool! Both of our daughters attended, and they absolutely loved going every day. The teachers and staff are caring, patient, and truly invested in each child’s growth and happiness. One thing we really appreciated was the communication. We were always kept up to date on how our daughters were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind as parents. The summer program was also fantastic. Our girls looked forward to the special activities, especially the beach and pool days, and came home excited to tell us all about their adventures. Choosing a preschool is a big decision, and we’re so thankful we chose Marley’s. We highly recommend it to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and make lasting memories. ★★★★★
