Los Angeles Education Guide

Southern California parents face a serious question: Where will I send my kids to school? There are hundreds of schools in Los Angeles to choose from, whether you’d like your kids to attend Public School, a Charter School, a Private or Parochial School, or even if you’re interested in Home Schooling.

Even before looking for an elementary school, parents need to find a Daycare or Preschool, and you may need to find Flexible Childcare, or a Nanny or Babysitter. 

Once kids are in school, you’ll also be looking for choices in the many After School Enrichment programs, and maybe even Tutoring services.

MomsLA has got you covered with Guides and lists for all of these categories and more.
