“Finding Little Bee feels like discovering a hidden gem. Our child gets to be in the outdoors for a good portion of the day, in the Presidio, with the Golden Gate Bridge as a backdrop. On top of that, her Mandarin AND English skills seem far advanced among her peers that are not in Little Bee. The parent community is one-of-a-kind and we have made some lifelong friends here. The only downside is knowing that our child will have to leave for kindergarten one day. Little Bee is a special place that our family will always treasure.”

“We love Little Bee! The teachers are caring, the atmosphere is warm, and our daughter always came home happy and full of stories. A wonderful place where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn.”

“One of the best preschools in the city to develop happy and healthy little humans. They have a very kind and caring staff who have a very good understanding of child safety and development. They have plenty of outdoor activities … I have never seen my son more happy than he was at Little Bee. You will not regret it, and it will be the best decision for your young child.”

“We love Little Bee. The kids are happy, well adventured on their daily outings & kept safe; the director Sarra is easy to work with, and the parent community is welcoming. On top of a Mandarin curriculum with creative activities daily, the lucky kids take outings every morning to various beautiful Presidio locations, including the ocean & beach, forest, and the new Presidio Tunnel tops.

We also appreciate the weekly show & tells, daily photo updates, and music classes. The kids enjoy singing Mandarin & English songs learned without speaking Mandarin at home. Highly recommend.”

“Little Bee is an amazing preschool with a loving and supportive environment. The teachers truly care about each child, and our daughter thrived here both socially and academically.”

“Everyday (for the past two years) we would commute 30 minutes one way to drop him off school. Was it worth it? Absolutely! LB is a wonderful place for kids to thrive and explore. My speech delayed child was able to thrive with the help of his nurturing and attentive teachers (especially Ying). He would happily tell us about his daily adventure walks around the neighborhood, who he was playing with and what he did during circle time.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ken H. | Cow Hollow | Aug 23, 2025

“Little Bee is an incredible preschool, and I could not recommend it enough to prospective parents. Our son has attended the Funston (Presidio) location since he was 2 years old. Each class has 3 main teachers + floating teachers, who all care for the kids with kindness and empathy.

The campus' location creates an idyllic and beautiful environment for the kids - they go outside to explore nature every morning, and we get sent daily pictures and videos of their adventures. We love the Mandarin immersion aspect, and our son is fully bilingual thanks to the teachers' efforts.

Beyond just a preschool, this is also a supportive, caring, welcoming community of families and we have met many wonderful friends through Little Bee.”

“Excellent preschool. Warm and skilled teachers and low staff turnover which gives great continuity for little ones going to outside care for the first time. Also a wonderful director who is pragmatic, patient and a pleasure to deal with.”
