What California does not publish here
The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

Our son spent a year at BLS while we were in Berkeley and had a fantastic experience. The staff are all incredible, and helped make our transition to a new city so much easier. Our son loved his time at BLS and learned a ton during his year there. I definitely would recommend BLS!
Erik JohnsonAug 11, 2026Love the community love the educators there! A great place for toddlers to grow and thrive!
Yue ShaoJul 7, 2026Wonderful teachers and facility. We have two kids here and they love it.
Brian CampbellJul 12, 2025If you are looking for a great preschool for your child this is the school. My experience working with the owner and staff has been wonderful.
Patrick RocheFeb 14, 2025Berkeley Little School is a bright open space with happy children and happy teachers!
Cindy BarretoJan 30, 2025Berkeley Little School has become a second home to my family. My son started out in the toddler room and is now thriving in the preschool class. He loves being outdoors, and Berkeley Little School provides ample time for students to explore in and outside of the classroom. The focus of the Reggio Emilia philosophy in projects really allows my child to explore with the materials in meaningful ways. I also really enjoy seeing him build friendships with children from 2-5 years old. He looks up to the older students as his role models and helps guide the young toddlers. The teachers are amazing and provide a safe and nurturing environment for the children.
