childcarepreschoolhead-start

CAPE — Jackson Center is a NAEYC-accredited, CCLD-licensed Day Care Center at 560 Jackson Ave in Livermore, part of CAPE's eight-site Head Start network serving Tri-Valley families since 1965. Licensed for 36 children with current compliance documentation from a May 2026 inspection, the center offers income-eligible families subsidized Head Start services alongside regular childcare Monday through Friday. A single Type B citation appears in inspection records, and the absence of public parent reviews means prospective families should conduct independent due diligence before enrollment.
