Peekadoodle
4228 Geary Blvd., San Francisco 94118
Peekadoodle offers a variety of educational and developmentally appropriate programs for toddlers and preschoolers. Our curriculum centers on the whole child through creating a balance of both guided exploration and learning through play. We are inspired and influenced by leading Early Childhood philosophies to create a diverse, layered, and meaningful opportunity to engage in learning across all disciplines. Pulling from the practices of Montessori, Reggio Emilia, play based learning, and the developmental continuum, our philosophy creates opportunities to stretch but not stress the young learner.
