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.

Color Me French is such a wonderful, magical place for kids to start their journey as young students of the world. Our daughter was there for three years and absolutely thrived. Karine has created an excellent, creative program for kids to learn and grow. The atmosphere is so attentive, caring, and warm, and I still appreciate how communicative and helpful the teachers are with parents about the daily goings-on, how to troubleshoot tricky toddler issues, and beyond. Our daughter graduated from CMF not only well-prepared with tangible skills to start elementary school (fine and gross motor skills, language skills in English AND French!, early reading skills etc etc), but also with confidence, creativity, social skills, an awareness of the environment and sustainability, and so so much more. With CMF, our whole family gained a community and culture that we still belong to and are so grateful for. Mille mercis!
Shahrzade EhyaApr 16, 2026As a native French speaker, we were searching for a school where our daughter could learn and speak French with other children. We found that and so much more at CMF. For us, the experience can be summed up in what we call the 3 Cs of Color Me French: Creativity Karine is deeply passionate about nurturing curiosity and creative expression through music, art, science, food, and hands-on exploration, all while fostering a genuine respect for nature and the environment. From the weekly music lessons to the insect studies and art projects, our daughter was continually inspired. Even now, at almost six years old, she is so proud to share the artwork she created during her time at CMF. Community We formed lifelong friendships at CMF. Beyond the birthday parties and playdates, it was truly special to see parents coming together to support one another, both during school events and in day-to-day life. That sense of connection and kindness is something we will always cherish. Culture With monthly field trips to city parks, museums, and cultural institutions, the children were exposed to the richness of the world around them. These outings helped them learn, explore, and appreciate the diversity of their community—both locally and globally. Merci Karine et Fabienne pour votre dédication, compassion et votre amitié
Helene RouseDec 3, 2025Karine has created an incredibly enriching learning environment here. The various learning methods, the hands on experiences and exposures, and the beautiful and above and beyond and other learning environment art work crafted here is more than I could have dreamed of. My daughter attending here was a gift to her and I wish school curriculum for all grade levels would be more in this fashion. Children would learn better and actually enjoy school. I can’t recommend CMF enough, my daughter’s French also grew a lot, even though going in she knew practically nothing. We love you CMF!
KatDec 2, 2025Our family was fortunate to be a part of the wonderful Color Me French community for six years, and it was a truly sad moment when our youngest finished preschool. CMF is more than just a preschool, it is a community where children and parents alike create meaningful friendships, setting it apart from other schools. When we first discovered CMF, the language immersion was an added bonus, but now we see how much it has benefited our entire family. Karine genuinely cares about enriching the children to become curious, emotionally regulated, conscientious human beings. She makes certain the kids engage in both fine and gross motor skill development. The children create incredible art, explore themes of nature and environmental care, frequently visit the park or play in the outdoor space so they're not cooped up inside all day. They also regularly prepare seasonal food, involving the kids throughout the process. My son even had two helpings of a veggie soup made from vegetables harvested from the CMF garden! The classroom is transformed into a new theme every few weeks, keeping the children engaged in pretend play while learning. Color Me French is one of the best experiences our children could have had, and our eldest (nearly 9 years old) still talks about her time at Color Me French. A huge thank you to Karine, Fabienne, and all the other teachers at CMF!
Oana AlupoaieNov 6, 2025Both of our children went to Color Me French, and we found it to be the most enriching and valuable experience for our children, and for us, as new parents! We don't speak French in our home, but they left school as fabulous French speakers. For us, the French was an added bonus to all of the other things they were taught/exposed to: art, outdoor exploration, writing, music, fine motor skills (cutting, writing, etc), math, science, personal autonomy, social/emotional development, the list goes on... Along with the love and kindness they received as this school, they have grown into curious humans, with a great love for learning. I think this is due in large part to the uplifting and inspiring environment that Karine, Fabienne and the other instructors provided for our kids. We will forever be grateful to the school, and for how formative it was for our children.
MacKenzie ForemanOct 18, 2024Our daughter attended CMF for one year. One of the saddest parts about moving away from SF was leaving this wonderful school! Our daughter still talks about how she misses Karine and Fabienne and that her old school was better because they went to the park. I loved the focus on art, the different learning themes, the park outings, and teaching them so early about the environment - they even had a beach clean up day! My husband (French) was very happy with the French immersion curriculum and how much our daughter’s French improved at this school. Our daughter learned so much here and is ahead on her numbers and letters at her new French school.
