About these numbers
Every number on this page is a count from California's license file, read on November 3, 2026.
A center program is the active center licenses one licensee holds at one address. A day care center and its infant center count as one program.
Openings and closures cover November 2025 to October 2026. An opening is a program first licensed then, at an address with no earlier center license. A closing is an address whose last center license closed in that time.
This page is a summary of public records. It is not legal advice, and licenses change every week.
