About Growing Place Family Preschool

Growing Place Family Preschool (GPFP) is a nonprofit, licensed preschool in San Francisco that was founded in 2015 by early childhood educators, parents, and community members to create a nurturing, collaborative space for young children and their families. GPFP serves children ages 2–5 in age-based classrooms (2s, 3s, and Pre-K), offers full- and part-time schedules plus early care, and uses a Reggio Emilia–inspired, play-based curriculum focused on inquiry, relationships, and developmental growth.
