Cuesta College maintains a licensed Children's Center on both the San Luis and North County Sites.  The San Luis Children's Center has two preschool classrooms and one toddler classroom.  The North County Children's Center has one preschool and one toddler classroom.  The Centers are used as a laboratory by students studying Early Childhood Education.  They are also used by students in other programs such as Nursing or Photography.

Enrollment  priority is given to Cuesta students, then faculty and staff and if space remains, the community at large.

Toddlers must be 18 months of age to be enrolled in the program and generally preschoolers will be 36 months of age.

There is a fee for attendance.
