Why this rating

This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Process quality reflects NAEYC accreditation. Structural quality reflects a license that's pending or provisional. The structural rating also includes California's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. California caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:6, and preschool ratios at 1:12. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. Annual training isn't required by the state.
