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.

It's for the preschoolers don't cha know
Matt BingenJul 26, 2018My child loves it at St. Matthias preschool in Redwood City. He has gone from being a "shy" kid to being a social butterfly which I attribute much to the wonderful teachers. The daily curriculum is stellar and we are amazed how much our son has learned while attending St. Matthias. He will be well prepared for Kindergarten and are very thankful to the staff and teachers at St. Matthias.
Jay AllenMar 29, 2017There are so many great things about St. Matthias Preschool. I decided to ask my daughter, who has attended the last two years, what she loves most and her response: "I like learning!" From the teachers to music day and Pal Mel (an exercise teacher), and lots of fun art projects, St. Matthias fosters a love of learning. Our daughter falls into the T-K grouping and we opted to keep her at the preschool based on the flexibility, learning environment and the nurturing teaching staff.
Alexa SevillaMar 26, 2017St Matthias preschool facilities are truly beautiful - an enormous outdoor play area set among redwood trees, a special kid-size dining room, beautiful large, bright, organized classrooms. A true gem nestled in Emerald Hills. Our daughter has struggled with attention and behavioral difficulties since infancy and St Matthias preschool really helped her bloom. The teachers genuinely care for our daughter and greet her with a hug each morning. She runs into the classroom every day excited to see her friends and teachers. Thank you St. Matthias!

What kind of child care licence does ST. MATTHIAS PRESCHOOL hold?

- California records 3 inspection visits to ST. MATTHIAS PRESCHOOL, the most recent on September 17, 2025 and the earliest on record May 24, 2023.

Has California visited ST. MATTHIAS PRESCHOOL in response to a complaint?
- California records no complaint-driven visits to ST. MATTHIAS PRESCHOOL. That means no concern prompted a visit on the public record, which is not the same as a clean inspection history: the state does not publish what its visits found.
Who holds the licence for ST. MATTHIAS PRESCHOOL?
- The licence is held by ST. MATTHIAS CATHOLIC CHURCH. California lists the licensee separately from the facility name, so the two often differ. The facility is in San Mateo County.
