Above & Beyond Preschool is a CCLD-licensed day care center at 126 Peabody Rd in Vacaville, serving children through its small licensed capacity of 27. As an independent, locally operated provider in the 95687 zip, it operates Monday through Friday and maintains a modest enrollment size that typically allows for lower child-to-staff ratios. The center does not participate in subsidized child care programs, and recent CCLD inspection records note Type B citations that warrant direct review before enrolling.
