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

  • Amazing Co-op. Love everything about it. Its been going for nearly 50 years. Great environment for learning and playing. Good rates and the ability to be ability to interact with my children in a teaching role is priceless in their formative years!

  • Discovering Playmates was one of the best things to happen to my family in San Francisco. It's a wonderful community of parents and teachers. The space is great too — you really should visit to see it for yourself. Because it's a co-op school, parents are expected to do some volunteer hours each semester. Rather than a burden, this has actually been a lot of fun — it's a chance to get to know other families and become more involved in your child's schooling as well. It's been a great experience overall.

Has California visited PLAYMATES COOPERATIVE NURSERY SCHOOL in response to a complaint?
