Welcome to Slippery Fish!

Slippery Fish is a vibrant and nurturing cooperative preschool in San Francisco, with play-based programs for children starting at 12 months. Our community thrives on the collective contributions of our families and staff. Together, we create an exceptionally supportive, safe, and engaging environment for learning.

Families join our school for our high quality programs and the additional benefits that a co-op affords: the opportunity to actively participate in their children’s first learning experience outside the home as well as the friendship, mutual support, and parent learning that can be found in our community of families.

Slippery Fish admits members of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to members at the school and does not discriminate on any of these bases in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
