About SF Tikes Academy
We offer full-day, year-round early childhood learning in San Francisco for children ages 18 months–5 years. Families can choose our Spanish immersion or English program. Both use playful, thematic STEAM activities covering science, technology, engineering, arts and math through exploration rather than formal academics.
Our preschool includes outdoor garden beds where children plant and care for herbs, vegetables and flowers. We also have a transitional kindergarten/kindergarten class for children who need another year before moving on. Our preschool teacher-to-child ratio is 1:6–8; the TK ratio is 1:10.
