Why this rating

This daycare earned 2 out of 5 stars overall. Heads-up: this facility's license is currently under sanction or carries an open enforcement action. Structural quality reflects a 55% violation rate and a license currently under sanction (probation or restriction). 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. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.
