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

  • I have been taking my daughter here since she was 3 months old. She’s almost 4 years old now and our experience has been wonderful!! Planning to take my second child here as well! I could not imagine taking my baby anywhere else. The staff is trustworthy, kind and attentive to all the children. I 100% recomment PVCC to any parent looking for a safe place to care for their children.

  • Been taking all my children here for over a decade! All four of my children! Thoughtful, kind and compassionate ladies. My children run in with smiles on and happy to stay. Their fees are reasonable too! They base it off income not a set price.
