Hey K.,
My 3 1/2 year old has been going to La Petite Academy since she was 18 months old. It was a struggle to get my husband agree to enroll her, he though she was too young. But I needed to get back to work full time and she needed the structure. (My sister in law was babysitting for about 4 months prior to enrolling her.) Since her start at what we refer to as "school', I notice that she is a lot more advanced than other children her age. I'm not just saying this because she is my little princess, either. She can count to 50, she knew her ABC's before she turned 3 and she even knows what a trapezoid is. These are just a few of the things she has surprised me with. Not to mention, she is generally well behaved and has good manners. All in all, I believe that this type of structured environment has helped her and will continue to help her until she has to graduate to 1st grade. There are 2 locations that I am aware of. We chose the Riverside location on Collette. There is also a Corona location off of Magolia and Rimpau. Call them and they will offer you a free tour.
K.,
in the Corona Parks and community Rec catalog that just came out, there are classes that your daughter can attend a couple times a week for a few hours each time. It is also "wallet friendly."
My little boy was in the "Stepping Stones" class last fall and loved it. There is also "Hooray for Pre-K."
These classes are great for learning time away from home.

I hope it helps you.
We love Crossroads Christian Pre-school on Ontario and Fullerton! That's my recommendation.
