First for our daughters.
Then for families
like yours.
Hungry Caterpillars was founded by Bianca and Bryan Haberek, a San Francisco family whose lives have long been connected to early childhood education.
Bryan grew up watching his mother care for children in the city for decades, building a daycare known for its warmth, steadiness, and trust with families. Bianca later worked in that same program, where they met and where both saw firsthand what thoughtful, consistent care means in the daily life of a child.
Hungry Caterpillars continues that work as a new generation carrying forward the same responsibility to the children and families of San Francisco.
When they began preparing to welcome their first daughter, Bianca and Bryan searched for childcare the way many parents do: hopeful, cautious, and deeply aware of how much those early years matter. What they found often felt incomplete. Some programs were structured but impersonal. Others were warm but inconsistent. Very few felt like a true extension of home, a place where a child would be deeply known, carefully guided, and genuinely valued. So they built Hungry Caterpillars, first for their daughters and then for families like yours. What began as something deeply personal has grown into a community of families who now share in that same trust.
From the beginning, every decision has been filtered through one question: Would this be good enough for our own children? If the answer is ever no, they do not move forward.
