About Us

Our mission is to promote a sense of community where families, community organizations, and businesses work together to provide accessible human services and to support families in their mission to raise children who are emotionally, mentally, and physically healthy.

Family Success Coach

We offer coaching for parents with children ages 0-5 to help families set goals and get on track to meet the needs of their family. We provide one-on-one consultations to families to assess their needs, and help them develop SMART goals with action plans and follow through to meet their family needs and desires.

Do you have goals but don't feel motivated?
Are you looking for job fulfillment?
Do you struggle with money and abundance?
Do you want to become more involved with your child's education?

Our Family Success Coach is here to guide you in the right direction on your journey in life.

Preschool Program

Our preschool program is for ages 3-5. Our philosophy is that children learn through play. Our goal is that each child's first school experience will be a positive one.

Our preschool promotes the development of your child's social, emotional, cognitive and physical skills. Special attention is given to individual learning and creativity.

Our preschool program is sponsored by First 5 Kern, funded by Proposition 10 and West Side Recreation and Park District. Classes run from September to May and are held Monday through Thursday in the morning and afternoon.

Space is limited!
