Sierra Preschool & After School follows a Montessori-inspired approach in a modern facility with bright classrooms, spacious grounds, and wide open outdoor spaces for exploration, movement, and outdoor learning adventures. The program offers home-cooked meals during the school day, with hot breakfast, lunch, and snacks included for full-time children, and the kitchen operates under USDA Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) guidelines with USDA-aligned nutritious meals cooked on-site daily. Teacher-to-child ratios exceed California state requirements at every age group, and subsidized care is accepted through the California Childcare Assistance Program (CCAP/Alternative Payment Program). The program is licensed by the State of California (License No. 304371707) and has been licensed since 2004, and it is part of the Sunland Group family of trusted preschools serving Southern California. The stated mission is to provide the best care and education possible in the most nurturing and positive environment the program can offer.

The leadership team includes Nicole as School Director. The program serves families in Riverside, Corona, and La Sierra. Families describe teachers as warm and pleasant, mention a clean and well-maintained facility, and note features such as a “peek a boo window” for observing children, as shared in testimonials from parents including Misha H., Karin S., Kim D., and Melissa H.
