What a capacity of 178 means

Capacity is the most children the license allows at one time, not current enrollment or openings.

California Title 22 (§101216.3 and §101416.5) requires one teacher for every 12 preschool-age children, or one teacher plus one aide for up to 15, and one teacher for every 4 infants.

On a tour, ask how many children are in each room and how many adults stay with them at nap time.
