“Wonderful forest school with caring teachers who really connect with the kids. After a bad experience at my son's first preschool, I was so relieved to find Exploration Academy.

Teachers Paula and Nathan deliver a varied curriculum that finds clever ways for students to learn and have fun. Not many preschools offer the opportunity to experience the best of San Francisco in a safe and enriching way.”

“Our daughter started at Exploration Academy this summer and has been loving it! The kids spend a ton of time outside exploring (which is very important to us, they cook, conduct experiments, and visit local museums and playgrounds.

We have known Teachers Nathan and Paula for a couple of years — they are both caring and engaged and put a lot into the curriculum. We know our kids are safe and well looked after.”

“I had the pleasure of hanging out with Exploration Academy while visiting my nephew last month. I was very impressed with how well planned the curriculum was and how engaged the teachers were with all the kids.

From museum visits to science projects and outdoor play, everything felt intentional and fun. I would highly recommend it to anyone that wants their kids to be happy, safe, and have a fantastic adventure!”
