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.

Dj ilin 13Oct 20, 2025Our son started at Nese Kids Care when he was just 10 weeks old--the youngest of all my children to ever begin daycare. I was nervous about leaving him so young, but from day one Ms. Jazz and Ms. Diana made both of us feel at ease. They welcomed my baby with such warmth, and they comforted me through my own tears with kindness and reassurance. The constant updates through the daycare's app (complete with tons of pictures--including my infant "doing art") gave me such peace of mind. From the beginning, I was struck by how much the teachers at Nese truly care. They provide such a rich environment, even for the youngest babies. I could visit throughout the day to nurse him and never once felt like I was intruding. Over the months, my son developed genuine, sweet bonds with every teacher--especially Ms. Jazz, Ms. Diana, Ms. Taylor, and Ms. Jessica. But the truth is, ALL the teachers at Nese are incredibly special. When we moved him to another daycare strictly out of location convenience, it quickly became clear what we had lost. On his last day at Nese, the teachers gifted us a homemade photo book full of photo memories and thoughtful, handwritten notes--a gesture that spoke volumes about the depth of their care. Within just one week at the new daycare, my husband and I knew we had made a mistake. While some transition struggles are normal, what we saw was different--our once happy, thriving baby came home withdrawn and exhausted, and with no photos shared in the app or thoughtful update at pick-up, we could only assume it was because he was crying all day. That's when we truly understood how much the thoughtful, above-and-beyond little things at Nese matter--the details you don't always notice until you experience a place without them: - The genuine love and connection the teachers build. - The thoughtful daily recaps. - The way his bag was always organized and ready at pick-up so I could simply scoop him up and focus on him. - The gentle laughter and distraction at drop-off that made separations easy--so easy, in fact, that he would wiggle OUT of my arms to get to his teachers, excited to start his day. After just one week away, I called Ms. Soshia in tears asking if we could come back. That Friday, we brought him for a visit--my baby desperately needed the comfort of familiar faces--and the moment we pulled in, a teacher ran out joyfully calling his name: 'We heard he's coming back!' Our son lit up with giggles and reached for his beloved Ms. Jazz. My heart was overwhelmed knowing just how much he was loved and missed. Thankfully, a space is opening soon, and we cannot wait to be back at Nese Kids Care. Teachers matter. How people care for and love your children matters. Nese Kids Care is clean, secure, well-structured, enriching, and conveniently located in Mission Valley with easy freeway access--but above all, it is filled with teachers who make children feel safe, happy, and truly cared for. We are beyond grateful for them; and will forever recommend Nese Kids Care.
Lindsey KeithSep 18, 2025The staff is amazing! They treat the children like their own. If you have the opportunity to send your child(ren) here you won’t regret it.
Rachel PackerJul 31, 2024We have loved all the teachers here, it is a great school !
