A Personal Mission

Our Story

We started Little Global Minds with one clear belief: that children thrive when they feel understood, encouraged, and connected - to themselves, to others, and to the world.As parents and educators with roots in multilingual homes and international school systems, we noticed something missing in many early childhood settings: a space where language learning, emotional growth, and curiosity come together in a calm, nurturing environment. We wanted more than academic readiness. We wanted joy, empathy, confidence, and cultural openness to be part of each child’s daily experience.Inspired by the best of Singapore’s early years programs, German child-led learning environments, and Mandarin immersion practices, we created Little Global Minds to bring those global standards to life here in San Francisco - in a way that feels personal, playful, and rooted in everyday care.This is more than a preschool - it's a place where children build their identity, their emotional strength, and their voice in three languages.
