DER KINDER GARDEN INFANT CENTER · MANHATTAN BEAPreschool

Licensed since 1988. No serious violations in 6 state visits.

Preschools are not tested, scored, or ranked — not by California, and not by us. What the state does keep is a licensing record: how often inspectors visited, what they cited, and whether anyone complained. That is a safety floor, and it is on this page. Everything that actually makes a preschool good — the warmth of the adults, how a hard morning is handled — you have to go and see.

State inspection record

California licenses and inspects every child care center. This is that record — a safety floor, not a measure of teaching. It cannot tell you whether the adults are warm or the day is well run.

6 citations across 6 visits, none of them serious. Most centers have at least one — 61% statewide — so a citation on its own says little. Title 22 codes: 101430(A)(1), 101439.1(f)(3), 101216(g)(1), 1597.622(a)(1), 101429(1)(2)(a)(b), 101430(A)(1)

Why there's no score here

Preschools don't participate in California's standardized testing. We can show you licensing status, capacity, and nearby elementary schools — but we can't score or rank preschools the way we do K-12 schools. For quality, visit the program, observe a session, and talk to current families.
