Full Ranking Detail
childcarepreschool
Passons Academy is a CCLD-licensed Child Care Center (license #198020812) in Pico Rivera serving children ages 2–6, with convenient Monday–Friday hours (7:00 AM–5:30 PM) and a small enrollment cap of 28 children that supports low child-to-staff ratios. Located on Passons Boulevard in central Pico Rivera, the center is actively operating as of January 2026. Limited public review coverage is available beyond the center's Yelp presence, making independent verification of parent experience difficult; prospective families should inquire directly about enrollment availability and program details.
