Nursery at Little School Tiburon is designed for two-year-olds and is often a child’s first experience away from home, with a play-based curriculum that focuses on social emotional development by teaching children how to share, take turns, learn routines, and participate in group and individual activities. Preschool for ages 3–4 balances play-based exploration and age-appropriate structure, with projects, free play, circle time, games, and manipulative materials that introduce academic and life skills. Pre-K for ages 4–5 is described as the grand finale of the Little School experience, emphasizing oral expression, reading, math, science, confidence building, problem solving, and cultural awareness through exposure to different traditions, perspectives, and experiences from around the world.
Little School Tiburon is a private non-profit preschool with 501(c)3 status. The Nursery adult-to-child ratio is 1:6 with a class size of 12, the Preschool ratio is 1:6 with a class size of 12, and the Pre-K ratio is 1:7 with a class size of 14.

Enrollment for the next two school years is open, and the program is currently accepting applications for the 2027–2028 and 2028–2029 school years.
