Full Ranking Detail
Ages 6wk–5yrInfant CenterFull-Day Care
Kids Discovery World is a CCLD-licensed Day Care and Infant Center at 15858 Bear Valley Road in western Victorville, serving children from 6 weeks through 5 years under license #364819494—nearly 20 years of continuous operation. The center provides full-day care from 6:00 AM to 6:30 PM and accepts multiple subsidy programs (CCR, TAD, Crystal Stairs), making it accessible to working families across the income spectrum; it also offers hot meals and emphasizes warm, individualized relationships with families. Curriculum includes Abeka programming with structured phonics and math progression; children engage in music, movement, outdoor play with standard equipment, and computer-based learning. Yelp reviews (3.5 stars, 10 ratings) reflect attentive staff, though the center's very small licensed capacity of 12 children means enrollment is tight and availability changes quickly. A 2023 CCLD inspection yielded 1 Type A and 4 Type B citations, and an August 2025 complaint investigation was filed—prospective families should review the full CCLD inspection record at ccld.dss.ca.gov before enrollment.
