"The Little School-Tiburon is absolutely wonderful! The play-based education, the facilities and programs all make The Little School-Tiburon the best choice for preschool. But what truly differentiates this school from every preschool in Marin, is its extraordinary teachers and the community. 

 

We could not find a better place than The Little School-Tiburon for our children for some of the most crucial years of their education.  We are currently in our third year and my kids are so excited to go to school every morning!"

"There is truly no other place I can imagine entrusting with my kiddos than The Little School-Tiburon.  With the guidance of Heather, Buffie and Sara, I have watched 2 of my children transform into empathetic, caring, loving, intelligent, thoughtful kiddos who love to learn - and I can't wait to send my 3rd through the program as well. The teachers, community, parent involvement, and the class size all lend themselves to the creation of an environment that allows children to flourish and grow.  Every day I look forward to hearing about what happened at school...from gymnastics, music and dance class to creative learning activities like building a Taj Mahal and cooking Roti for India during "I" week, the kids come home with a big smile on their face and an excitement to share with us what they have learned.  I am so excited to send my son into Kindergarten with the strong foundation and love for learning he received at TLS, but I am also so glad I have younger kiddos who are still at TLS so I can continue being a part of this wonderful community."

"At first, choosing a preschool felt a little daunting—how do you find the right place to entrust your child each day? But the moment we discovered Little School, we felt completely at ease. It truly is such a special place. The teachers aren’t just experienced; they’re warm, joyful, and genuinely love what they do. 

​

Elle comes home every day absolutely beaming, eager to share everything from the yoga poses she practiced to facts about Tiburon’s history or her latest science and math projects. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, blending play, creativity, and learning in a way that feels natural and fun. We’re so grateful for the incredible foundation TLS has given her as she heads into kindergarten with confidence and curiousity."

"It's hard to describe in words why The Little School in Tiburon is so amazing. Is it the teachers? Is it the parents? Is it the individual attention each child receives due to the class size? Or is it all the above? My son comes home from school on a daily basis with new knowledge that I am so proud of. Whether it is about the circle of life of a caterpillar or the transformation of a simple vegetable from the garden to a healthy snack such as zucchini bread, I love how the teachers are so hands on with their teaching approach. They play, they do gymnastics, they garden, they hike, they have music class, all while learning their numbers and how to write their letters. From Nursery to Pre-K, my son is learning the tools for him to excel in Kindergarten."

"We feel so fortunate to have found this wonderful preschool for our two daughters. From the very beginning, it was clear that this was more than just a school—it’s a truly special community. The teachers are incredibly nurturing, supportive, and genuinely invested in each child's growth and happiness. We've watched both of our girls thrive here—academically, socially, and emotionally.

 

What has made the experience even more meaningful is the sense of connection we've built with the other families. The friendships we've made with fellow parents have been such a gift, and there's a real sense of shared values and support throughout the community. We couldn’t have imagined a better start to our girls’ educational journey!"

 

- Hallie Adrian

"We love Little School! From day one, the teachers and community of fellow parents have been incredibly welcoming. Adrian loves going to the Nursery class - he comes home excited to share what he learned and always has stories about his friends and teachers. Upon leaving school, Adrian will pridefully show me how he rode the bikes at school that day. He also comes home singing the songs he learned that day at school. We're so grateful to have found a place that he loves so much!"

 

-Heather Arora

"We absolutely love The Little School-Tiburon! From the moment our daughter started, we knew we had made the right choice. The teachers are exceptional—caring, patient, and dedicated to helping the children grow and learn. The sense of community is also amazing, with wonderful families who support one another. The extracurricular activities are such a fantastic addition, providing enriching experiences that go beyond the classroom.

 

Our daughter has found her best friends here, and it's truly heartwarming to see her come home each day so excited about school and all the things she's learning. We can't wait to send our youngest to The Little School when she's old enough! This school has been an incredible experience for our family, and we are so grateful."

 

- Kylie Clark 

"It's hard to put into words how much we love being part of The Little School community.  Our 3 and 5 year old have grown leaps and bounds socially and emotionally because of the amazing teachers and curriculum at TLS. 

 

It's hilarious watching their disappointment when weekends come around and they realize that means there's no school.  We really couldn't ask for a better environment for our children to get introduced to school. "
