Creative Years Infant Center & Preschool
A 47-year Santa Clarita school with its land, and 112 open licensed seats.
Creative Years has served Santa Clarita Valley families since 1979. The school is offered as a going concern together with its fee simple real estate: a 13,359 SF licensed childcare campus on 2.03 acres with four outdoor play yards, 27 parking spaces and a dedicated parent drop-off. A buyer takes the business, the building and the land in one transaction, with no landlord, no rent escalations and no lease term to manage.
The same two owners have run the school since 2002, and the director has been with it for 28 years. Licensed capacity is 205 children across two California licenses: 187 preschool-age and a separate 18-child infant-toddler license. Enrollment stood at 93 in March 2026, about 45% of license, which leaves 112 open seats inside the existing building. That gap is the central opportunity for new ownership.
The seller will also consider a business acquisition paired with a long-term lease and an option to purchase the real estate. Terms are available from the broker on request.
