Schools in Austin, TX

“I truly consider this school a hidden gem. EHAT delivers 100% on what parents of young children are looking for—a nurturing, safe, and enriching environment.
What stands out most is how the staff genuinely care for the children as if they were their own. It’s something you can see and feel—something that can’t be faked. The bond between the teachers and students feels like family, and the trust and love the children show in return says it all.
Academically, the school offers full Spanish immersion, paired with nearly individualized attention in the classroom. The children are always engaged in fun, meaningful, and developmentally appropriate activities.
EHAT is truly a treasure in the South Austin / Dripping Springs area.”

“TLE has been a blessing! Our son has learned SO MUCH here at TLE and we are appreciative of how diverse, fun, and safe this place is. The teachers do a phenomenal job they always have an eye everywhere and have great communication with us throughout the day. We love seeing the daily pictures and activity feed updates.
In the morning teachers greet him with excitement and urgency so we can get to work. While the occasional toddler meltdown is inevitable, the staff handles these situations with professionalism and a perpetual smile.
They have provided an excellent experience for us so far!
I cannot say enough good things about TLE!”

“I've rented a paddleboard from The Expedition School twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic! The staff is always friendly and personable, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. Plus, the cost is so affordable compared to other rental spots I've been to in the past. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to have a great time on the water!”

“The Goddard School of Avery Ranch strives for the best care of all children. The owners and directors do their best to meet the needs of all the children and are easy to talk to. I love how we all get greeted as we walk into the building- this shows the school has a positive atmosphere. As a first-time mother, I was nervous to take my daughter to childcare, but the staff was very helpful and made this transition easy for us. My daughter has gained confidence, made friends and is a lot more interested in books. I trust that at The Goddard School of Avery Ranch my daughter will be provided with the care and learning skills needed as she is growing. Thank You!”

“Since my daughter has been at Goddard for about 3 months now she has loved it and I have been very comfortable leaving my daughter every day at this school knowing she’s being very well taken care of and loved. Top of the notch security literally no one could get into the school if you’re not a parent. All the staff is very kind and welcoming. I love this school so much!”

“I truly appreciate how caring and dedicated the staff and teachers are. My daughter loves going to school every day. The teachers are nurturing and genuinely care about the children. The front office staff is always warm and welcoming, creating a consistently happy and positive environment.
I highly recommend Primrose school- Shady Hollow.”

“Goddard School provided a safe, warm and nurturing environment right around our home in Circle C for the last 3 years. My kid absolutely enjoyed his time there. He has had many favorite teachers during this time. He made wonderful friends along the way in his classes. Same routine everyday kept him knowing what to expect and the days smoother. We loved Wednesdays - because it’s Soccer Shots day, right here at the school (my little one loves playing soccer).

Goddard was our little one’s home away from home last couple of years and we’re truly grateful and blessed to have been a part of Goddard community!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about this daycare! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and reassured. The teachers are incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, treating every child as if they were their own.
The environment is clean, safe, and full of engaging activities that encourage learning through play. I love that the staff communicates regularly with parents, keeping us updated on daily routines, milestones, and even the little funny moments that happen throughout the day.
Finding childcare you can truly trust is not easy, but this daycare has exceeded all our expectations. We feel so lucky to be part of this community and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive, and fun place for their child.”

“Well this year been good like the new principal appreciate you. Teachers and principles of communicating with each other which they should always very good school very clean and safe I recommend my kids continue to come here until they get to Middle School”

“we enrolled our 3 year old son here. right from tour till enrollment it was super smooth ,very friendly and kids focussed.Thanks to Jessica ,Samone and Swetha for enrollment & day1 experience.Special Note on Simone's Ownership & consumer first attitude.”

“Our daughter attended Atelier, and it was a delight to send her to a Atelier immersion preschool. Spanish is our daughter's first language so it was great to find a lace where she could become familiar with and practice English. Excellent experience!”

“We are very grateful for our time at Angel’s. The staff there work endlessly for all of our kid’s and we all can see it. My son enjoyed his time there and really loved his teachers/mentors there. One of my favorite things about Angel’s was how great it smelt from the food that was being prepared for their lunches upon drop off. The staff is also very involved in hosting theme days and make it fun for the kids to dress up and be imaginative.”

“I could go on and on about how amazing the TLE has been. My daughter has a disability and Erin has been nothing but compassionate, understanding and loving towards my daughter. Most daycares wouldn’t even accept her where here she was welcomed by every single teacher, and staff member with open arms. Her teachers Ms. Sai and Jenny are absolutely amazing and truly love my daughter like their own. Jannifer the director and Erin the owner truly make a great team and truly care about each of the kids as well and are great at communicating with me as a parent. I could go on and on about how much I love this daycare but knowing that as a single mom my child will be loved and supported and I don’t have to worry about her safety so I can work is priceless to me. Thank you for the bottom of my heart for all you do!”

“We absolutely love Primrose! My son looks forward to going to school everyday. I know that they take good care of him and he loves every staff member there. Their curriculum challenges my son, and he's learned so much with the year he has been there. Primrose involves the parents in any event or activity and establishes great communication with us. This feels like a second home to us and I truly appreciate that! ? Primrose School of Four Points is amazing!”

“Triumphant Love Lutheran Church is a beautiful, welcoming community of faith that’s truly making a difference. Their leadership is compassionate, committed, and focused on serving both their congregation and the local community with love and purpose. As their commercial insurance partner, we’ve had the pleasure of witnessing their impact firsthand. If you’re looking for a church home filled with grace, truth, and connection this is a special place to be. ??⛪?”

“Elsass Academy has been wonderful to our family since we joined them last year and I really am so grateful for the teachers in my son's room, he loves them. And I can tell they care for him, and even from the beginning were taking the time to get to know him. Little things, like mentioning how he's most fussy when he's hungry, and noticing that in just his first couple of weeks of attendance, show me how much attention they're paying, and that they're trying different things to figure him out. The whole staff is so pleasant and creates a great atmosphere. My son is 11 months and just merrily crawls away to play as soon as we arrive!I have been meaning to write a review but what finally reminded to do so, is the way they have been managing the current situation with the pandemic. Elsass has been communicative, flexible, and understanding. We're so happy to work with them through this crazy time, and be mutually supportive while we all work our way through this situation.”

“We have absolutely loved our time at SMS! The teachers and support staff seem to know every child's name and know how to make each baby give the biggest smile, which is genuinely heart-warming. We are moving out of state and can only hope to find a facility with such a caring and thoughtful staff.”

“I would 100% recommend Stepping Stone Anderson Mill they been amazing for my sons care. Delonna the director and her staff of teachers have been very attentive and very communicative. Coming from someone who didn’t really trusted daycares it gives me peace when my son stays in their care , he always has a smile at drop off and pick up.”

“We love Bergstrom Tech KinderCare! The staff is incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. Our child has grown so much emotionally and academically since starting here. The center is always clean, secure, and well-organized. We especially appreciate the regular updates and communication from the teachers. Most importantly, our child is happy and excited to go every day. Highly recommend to any parent looking for trustworthy, high-quality childcare!”

“My son went to Sweet Briar from 2yrs old until he went to Kindergarten this year. He truly enjoyed going and loved all of his teachers. Ms. Maria, the center Director, is wonderful. She is responsive, caring, and very supportive. While all the teachers are great, my son especially loved Ms Jeanette, the Pre-K teacher. You can definitely tell that she cares about her kids. All in all, we had a wonderful experience! It’s always tough sending your kiddos away for the day and trust them in someone else’s hands, but we always felt comfortable and knew our son was well taken care of.”

“Covenant Presbyterian Preschool has been a welcoming, warm, loving, safe place where both our children were able to begin their learning experience. We have been delighted watching our kids become curious little people who love to learn and feel enabled to do so with their teachers and classmates. Both my kids love art and find a lot of joy in creativity and I credit Covenant who encouraged this through such joyful art projects. Covenant has been our favorite place for the past few years!”

“I ordered a Princess Cake from Bake Austin for my daughter’s 13th birthday and it was super beautiful and delicious. It was my first time trying a Princess Cake. It’s a traditional Swedish layer cake! ? Thank you for making our experience memorable! ?”

“The teachers and staff are absolutely amazing at Cadence Academy! I knew my son was in good hands everyday and he had so much fun with his teachers! Ms. Tanya and Ms. LeBerta are absolutely amazing in the infant classroom!”

“My daughters have been going here for about four months now, and they honestly love it. They've settled in really well, and I think a big part of that is how friendly and caring the staff is. The teachers are great they treat the kids with respect and make them feel safe and welcome.

Ms. Mari is a great director . She's super helpful and always takes the time to answer my questions or talk through any concerns. You can tell she really cares. I'm so glad we found this place.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our decision to enroll our daughter at Little Hands. Before joining, she was reluctant to attend her previous daycare, but everything changed after we found Little Hands. She was so excited to go to school every day, and it is truly one of the best decisions we have ever made for her.

Little Hands is a wonderful place for children. It is always very clean, the teachers are incredibly caring, and the curriculum is very well-designed. They cover so many subjects, including science, arts, math, Chinese, Spanish, English, sports, and the kids are constantly encouraged to be creative. We also love how they celebrate various cultural festivals and teach the children to respect and appreciate cultural differences.

Our daughter graduated from Little Hands in the summer of 2023. Although we moved out of state after her graduation, we had the chance to visit Austin in the summer of 2024 due to my work. Ms. Terri welcomed us back and took wonderful care of our daughter for two weeks, just like before.

Ms. Terri and her team of teachers are truly the best. They are deeply committed to the development and growth of the children and work hard to prepare them for the future. Little Hands is by far our best daycare and preschool center, and we will always come back to visit when we get the chance.”

“First Foundations Preschool is truly a special place and has been such a blessing to our family. They have such a fantastic team of teachers and really take the time to invest in the kids. My son has taken leaps and bounds in his social and educational development since he's joined. Each day has something special in store for him, and I am always comforted knowing that he is deeply cared for.”

“I love this school, my daughter started here when she was 4 months she is now 18 months ,,, she loves it ,,, and we feel safe and happy...they are now my family”

“We are very happy with our experience at The Goddard School of Austin. The teachers and office staff are friendly and knowledgable. We know our child is learning and is loved and well cared for while she is at school. We would highly recommend (and have) others registering their children at this location. We started our child at this school when she was 4 months old.”

“My 6yr old son has been attending Stepping Stone aftercare this school year and we couldn't be happier with our experience! He's made great friends there and never complains about having to attend...sometimes I have trouble getting him to leave the playground lol! The facilities are clean and inviting with bright, stimulating colors. The recent update in leadership by Christina Watson has made it even better with updated programs to stimulate out littles minds and bodies. They've been extremely flexible with having us attend full day care when schools are closed and even proactively called me to see if we'd be attending full time during the summer.I've also had interactions with the Owner/Founders of Stepping Stone Rhonda and Bill Paver and their passion for the industry is second-to none.Overall I couldn't be happier with our experience and I highly recommend Stepping Stone as a great option for anyone!”
