MAOF Child Care Center Preschool is a CCLD-licensed center-based preschool provider at 711 South C Street in Oxnard, California, operated by the Mexican American Opportunity Foundation—a 27-center nonprofit serving Los Angeles and Ventura County families for decades. With a clean regulatory record across all CCLD inspections (2021, 2024) and a capacity of 23 children, the center emphasizes developmental growth, parent partnership, and accessibility through subsidized programming and income-qualifying support for working families. Its developmental curriculum is designed to enhance physical, mental, social, and cultural awareness. A March 2026 complaint investigation warrants follow-up with CCLD for current status, and the very small capacity means spots are likely limited to subsidy-eligible families and possible waitlists.
