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.

We love Lakewood Little Minds. The minute I took a tour here I knew I wanted my kid to attend. They are so welcoming and the picture updates melt me. Super kind staff and you can depend on them to provide great care for your children while they are teaching.
AlexandraMay 26, 2026From the moment we enrolled, we felt welcomed and supported. The teachers create such a warm, safe, and engaging environment where children can thrive. My daughter has grown so much in her confidence, language, and independence. She’s always excited to go to school, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing she’s in such good hands.
Ionica TisteaOct 2, 2025A rare preschool with a mix of everything. Language, play, academic, outdoor fun and community. We were so nervous starting our little one but the staff welcomed us and supported us along the way- she loves going to her school and always looking forward to seeing her friends every time. Highly recommend.
Eva ChanMay 12, 2025Seaside Preschool is a wonderful school! My 2-year-old daughter loves it and always comes home excited to share her drawings and art projects. She’s also learned songs and dances taught in class, and I’ve seen her grow so much since she started attending. The teachers are incredibly patient and even help soothe her to sleep during nap time—something that’s not easy! The school also puts a lot of effort into organizing fun and meaningful activities, which makes us as parents feel more connected, reassured, and involved in her learning journey. Highly recommend!
Sabrina YangMay 10, 2025We have had a wonderful experience at Seaside Costa Mesa for our 2-year-old daughter. The teachers are so caring, kind, and attentive, and it’s clear that every child is well cared for. We use both the before- and after-care programs, and it has been such a comfort knowing she is in a nurturing environment all day. Our daughter is constantly stimulated and learning through art, music, and play — and we love hearing the songs she brings home! The school also incorporates Chinese, Spanish, and English, which we think is an amazing foundation at this age. The community is warm and welcoming; while we mostly see other parents at pickup and drop-off, everyone has been very nice. We are so happy with our decision to choose Seaside and would absolutely recommend it to other families looking for a caring and enriching preschool experience.
Andrew SchreyerApr 30, 2025Seaside Preschool has been such a wonderful experience for my 3 year old. Before enrolling her at Seaside I spent a lot of time interviewing and visiting different programs in Costa Mesa, and opted to enroll her here for various reasons: the trilingual studies, nature time, playground time, and all the fun activities they put on to make a great time for the kiddos. Mr Gonzales and the teachers have been so amazing. Always enthusiastic to see my girl and help her grow. I truly feel at ease dropping her off, and see how she is flourishing both academically and socially. I can't recommend this program enough!
