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.

  • Absolutely love this preschool! The teachers are wonderful, the facility is clean and inviting, and my child is always excited to go. Great communication with parents and a curriculum that truly engages the kids.

  • I’m happy with my son’s preschool. The teachers are very patient and caring. The school communicates well with parents, and I can tell they truly care about each child. Highly recommend for families looking for a trustworthy and loving preschool!

  • My daughter (Ellie) graduated from and son (Evan) is still attending UCEC. We chosen this preschool because of their Christian foundation and how organized the program is. Our tour with the director and teachers were pleasant and welcoming. The doors are only open from the inside and a security outside so no strangers are welcome. Both my kids love the school, the curriculum and made ever lasting friends. I would recommend this school to my friends. Ms. Wong

  • We enrolled our son about three years ago, during the pandemic, and even though we couldn't tour the facility or meet the staff in person, the school quickly proved itself to be everything we hoped for—and more. The teachers and staff are incredibly warm, welcoming, and professional. The facility is always clean, safe, and thoughtfully set up, creating a nurturing space where kids are excited to learn and grow. They do an outstanding job of keeping parents informed, not only about upcoming events and school activities but also about each child’s progress and milestones. We’ve been so impressed by how much they’ve helped our son grow—both academically and personally. He’s become more responsible, independent, and confident thanks to the guidance and support he receives every day. Most importantly, they make school and learning genuinely fun for the kids, which is something we deeply value. UCEC’s curriculum is truly impressive. Our son transitioned into TK last year, and everything he was expected to know by the end of that year, he had already learned in preschool at UCEC. We love that the school not only focuses on your child’s progress but helps them get ahead academically while still making learning fun. Overall, we’re so grateful for the strong foundation UCEC has given our son—academically, socially, and emotionally. We highly recommend this school to any family looking for exceptional early childhood education. We'll be returning again soon for our next child!

  • I know this preschool quite well; not only did my children attend it, but I was also closely involved in school activities. The school has a vision of sharing God’s love and emphasizes its priorities of loving children, their families, and the community. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed and integrates biblical teachings with activities that promote both academic and spiritual development. Our children (adults now) have shown wonderful growth in their cognitive abilities and social skills from this school while learning important Christian values such as kindness, respect, honesty, patience, forgiveness and sharing. We feel very blessed to be a part of this preschool and highly recommend it to any family seeking a nurturing, faith-based environment. It’s a place where children not only learn but also develop a strong foundation in their faith.

  • I love UCEC! We’ve had such a great experience with the teachers and admin! The school is always clean and well cared for, and the teachers are so warm and welcoming. They really take the time to get to know each child and work with them individually. The curriculum is modern and engaging, my toddler is learning so much and loves going every day. Highly recommend!
