Our family had our daughter at KidSpring for over a year, and we couldn't have asked for a better first school experience. We originally chose KidSpring because of the Spanish immersion program, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. The school has an intimate, attentive environment. Our daughter genuinely loved going to school each morning and was always excited to see her teachers and friends. She made friendships that have continued beyond the classroom through playdates, and we've watched her grow tremendously in her independence, sharing, and Spanish language skills. The teachers truly make this place special. Paola, in the baby room, is one of those rare people who is simply meant to work with children. Our daughter immediately bonded with her, looked for her every morning at drop-off, and learned to say her name very quickly. It was so reassuring knowing your child is excited to see their caregiver each day, and Paola gave us that confidence from the very beginning. When she graduated to the toddler classroom, Miriam has been equally wonderful. She is incredibly engaged with the children, and it was obvious from the start that our daughter connected with her. We've loved watching her come home counting in Spanish and enthusiastically trying to sing the ABCs, which is something we know was nurtured through Miriam's encouragement and teaching. Communication with the staff was consistently excellent, and we always felt informed about our daughter's day. We loved our time at Kidspring, and would definitely reenroll! read more

Such a loving and warm environment! The staff are so great and truly cared for my son!

Our family had a fantastic experience with KidSpring. We entrusted them to care for both of our children, and there was never a doubt that they were in good hands with Macarena and her staff. They loved their teachers, made great friends, and learned an incredible amount as well. I would highly recommend KidSpring to anyone looking for a daycare option in South Austin. read more

We toured multiple daycare facilities and then when we met Macarena and toured Kidspring we knew we had found the best choice. We started sending our son at four months old he has been going for a year. Our son has fallen in love with their amazing team of caretaker's and you can sense their genuine love and attention to each child. If you are looking for a non-franchised daycare and an amazing family-owned business then I recommend scheduling a tour. read more

Kidspring is a gem! My daughter started attending around 15 months. All the teachers are wonderful, they're super communicative and pay a lot of attention to details! Ms. Macarena is the best and she truly loves all the kids- All the teachers as well! Kidspring is super clean, and I immediately fell in love with the place when I did my first tour. I have only wonderful things to say about this place. We are so grateful! read more

We truly enjoyed our time at KidSpring! All of the teachers are incredibly loving and caring--they treated my baby as if she were their own. I was initially nervous about sending my 4-month-old to daycare, but they made the transition so smooth and comforting. The staff is very communicative, and the environment is always clean, safe, and welcoming. We're so grateful for the care and attention our little one received during her time there. read more

Our daughter went to Kidspring Bilingual Learning Center from ages 2 to 5, and she absolutely thrived there. She was engaged every single day, always learning something new, and would come home excited to share it with us. I loved how they weave education into everything--they make learning fun, but also really build those important skills that kids need. It's hard to trust someone else to care for your child, but Kidspring truly checked all the boxes for us. Communication was always 100%--everything went through Brightwheel, and we loved getting photo updates throughout the day. Ms. Macarena and all the teachers are so caring and involved. You can tell they genuinely want the kids to succeed. She made so many friends and left feeling so prepared for kindergarten, as did we. We are forever grateful for the fantastic experience Kidspring provided and highly recommend them to any family looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child! read more

My 6month old started at KidSpring in their infant room and we all loved it. Every day we dropped him off he would always smile at his teachers and they were so good about uploading multiple pictures, nap times, and feedings in the app throughout the day. The school was very clean, had good security, was very communicative, and I felt my son was exposed to a variety of stimulating activities that kept him entertained all day. I would definitely recommend KidSpring to anyone looking for childcare. The only reason we're leaving is due to moving but otherwise we would have loved to stay there. read more

KidSpring is an amazing place with the most caring directors and teachers! When searching for childcare we were looking for a program that felt safe, secure, full of love and provided ample opportunity for development. KidSpring definitely checks all of these boxes! First and foremost, they become part of the family as they so tenderly care for your little one. It's clear that high standards are enforced from the top down. The director takes great care in finding qualified caretakers - in turn, the teachers are attentive, in tune with your child, and have positive and uplifting attitudes. Having loving, happy faces surround your child all day is such a blessing in terms of social development!! We came from a Montessori environment, so the opportunity for independence and child development were some of our top concerns. This can be hard to find, especially at the infant age; however, I was amazed to see a daily routine full of age appropriate activities. The children are constantly given opportunity to use their hands; there is daily art and sensory exposure. They are read to constantly, they have puppet shows and do so many creative activities - it's truly amazing!! My child learned so much during his time here. He's far surpassed his developmental milestones and I have so much gratitude to KidSpring for the wonderful environment they provided for him. Highly recommend this childcare facility! read more

Mrs. Maccarena is a wonderful positive caregiver. She demonstrates a strong maternal, family-oriented approach to nurturing all of the kids in her care. I feel confidant in sending my daughter to daycare knowing she's safe and cared for while I'm at work. Mrs. Maccarena provides a valuable structured curriculum that includes both English and Spanish language arts, math, social skills, art, and physical play. She has left a positive impact on my daughter. My daughter looks forward to seeing her teacher each day and can't stop talking about what she's learned at "my school". There is no better feeling than leaving your child under the care of a daycare you can trust just like family. I'm happy to consider Mrs. Macarena family. Linda Chapa read more

Ms. Macarena was my son's teacher from the time he was a small baby until she opened her new facility (he is 3 now) and he absolutely loves her. He always happily went to her every morning and chatted about her every night. His Spanish is amazing, too, and we do not speak Spanish. His English is exceptional, too - he is truly bilingual. I am so grateful to her for teaching him. He loves speaking both English and Spanish. I can't say enough great things about Ms. Macarena as a teacher and as a person. She is a rare gift and we miss her a lot. I absolutely would recommend her to anyone. read more

This was our son's first daycare. From the first interaction Macarena was a dream! So accommodating for the visits to the center and a great communicator! When my son started he immediately connected with her and we didn't have any trouble transitioning! I felt that she truly cared about my kid as she certainly does for any other in her care. The center was always clean and so well organized no matter what time of day I got to pick up my son. The Brightweel photos we got throughout the day in real time made the transition so much easier for me! :D Additional benefit was that my already bilingual kid started learning Spanish as his third language and understood all the instruments from his teachers in just a few months. We had to move him to a different center but we'll always be grateful for the time we spent here. read more

KidSpring Bilingual Learning Center - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - Austin, Texas

Our family has loved KidSpring! The staff is always very kind and professional. The facility is so inviting and clean. Our daughter has made so many sweet friendships and learned so much in her time there. I love that there is structure to the day with lessons, art, free play, etc. It feels good knowing that she's not just being babysat, but actually learning through lessons and activities she wouldn't normally do at home. We feel like the staff has provided a safe environment for the kids which is so important to us. Lastly, I really appreciate their communication with parents. They keep us updated and informed and are quick to respond if we have questions or concerns. read more

Enrolling our child at KidSpring has been one of the best decisions we have ever made as parents. We enrolled our son as a baby and he stayed there until most recently when it was time to enroll him in a pre-K4 program. Macarena and Troy Poole, Co-Founders and Co-Directors feel a lot more like family members than business owners. Both have extensive experience in early childhood education and it shows. What I absolutely love about KidSpring: - The educators are all well-trained and highly experienced. Their love and passion for childcare shines. - The curriculum is exceptionally enriching. At most child care centers, the kids may stare at screens and play with old toys for most of the day. Not here. They are constantly engaged and always learning. - The teacher to child ratio is healthy. Kids are always closely monitored and receive continuous individual attention. - KidSpring is remarkably bright and clean. You can tell that Maracena and her staff obsess over cleanliness. The place is spotless. - Play items are diverse and the inventory of play options is continuously refreshed with new items. Our son loved the play items at KidSpring so much that I ended up buying many of the items for our own home. - Maracena is, in one word, amazing! She became an extended family member. This much is true: she loves the children like they are her own. Her passion, devotion, commitment and love for the children at KidSpring is so strong and so special. Our son is now attending a pre-K4 program at a Catholic school and the teacher was amazed at how well prepared our son was when he was enrolled. He's smart, polite, curious, kind, generous and endearing, and I have no doubt that KidSpring played an instrumental role in helping to mold our son into a high-performing student and a wonderful human. I'm proud to say that when I dropped off my son for his last day at KidSpring, I cried my eyes out. It was a bittersweet moment. I cherish Macarena and Troy and they will always be family. - Keith read more

KidSpring has been our son's first daycare. We were worried how he might fit in given that he was never away from us for that long. Macarena, Troy and their staff went an extra mile assuring us timely updates and posting images into daycare app. This was a huge help to us parent's plus our son loves Mrs. Macarena and Mr. Troy. Our son went there for 9 months and I must say we had a great experience and would highly recommend. The staff is dependable and approachable. Thank you for helping taking care of our son and allowing him to learn and grow within your program. read more

I can not say enough wonderful things about KidSpring and its staff. Mrs. Macarena and her husband Troy are as good as family taking care of my son. This is my only experience with daycare and it has far exceeded any expectations I ever had. My son Jaxson gets excited to go to school every day and has learned so much since going there. He can now count to 1-10 in english and spanish and isn't even 2 years old. I highly recommend any parent to enroll their child or children in KidSpring. The entire staff is so patient and loving to my child. As a first time parent it's such a comfort knowing my son is being cared for Monday through Friday. read more

Look no further than Kid Spring Bilingual Learning Center!! We started our son, like any other parent hoping it would be a good fit, he would get the care and attention he needed and ideally learn. In the short amount we have been at Kid Spring with Mrs. Macarena, We have received so much more than that! Our son is loved and cared for beyond my expectations! The bright-wheel app keeps us updated on all of his activities and his day, but beyond that Mrs. Macarena makes it a point to reach out separately if she sees a change in our son. She personally takes the time to let us know he is safe and how he's doing if we have any worries. She truly cares and follows up when he's out sick or away for whatever reason. KidSpring is a family affair owned and operated by Mrs.Macarena and Mr. Troy her husband, and they bring in only the best to care for our children which makes us feel so comfortable. It was scary taking our son back to school during Covid times but the school smelled of cleanliness when we first walked in and continues to do so every time!! They take all the precautions to keep our kids safe. They are transparent with anything regarding the school, staff and kids! The toys are updated, clean and kept together as the whole school is. Your child won't be playing with old crusty blocks or dolls. The toys serve a learning purpose while still allowing the kids to "play". Our son does all kinds of activities that stimulate his mind and allow him to explore grow and learn! He brings home a learning activity or art project every day!! You'll never wonder if your child is learning something because they will tell and show you! The whole staff is knowledgeable loving and caring beyond words. Mrs.Macarena is a teacher who is in it for the kids their growth and wellbeing and shows it to us everyday! We love KidSpring and the family feel of it and don't see us going anywhere else that's not them! Go check them out!! You won't be disappointed. The Gonzales' read more

Our family can't express how wonderful KidSpring is! Our son has been going to KidSpring for 8 months and after a terrible experience at another facility, I wasn't sure we could trust anyone again, until we met Macarena and Troy. They are highly experienced in child care and treat and love our son and family like their own. My child loves attending everyday and has learned so much Spanish we are shocked everyday with the new words and songs he has learned. We get tons a photos and updates and they are always doing hands on learning. Within a few months of KidSpring our two year old was counting in Spanish and learned his ABC's with ease. They check on us outside of daycare hours to make sure we are always happy and healthy. They are very clean and always communicate when children are sick or if a virus is going around. They sanitize daily, and our child has hardly gotten sick there. We can't say enough about KidSpring and highly recommend it. read more

Macarena, Mr. Troy, and all the staff at KidSpring are amazing. As a first-time parent, I was nervous about daycare, but from day one, KidSpring has been excellent in communicating with us. Any concerns we have are immediately addressed. KidSpring sends us multiple photos DAILY to show us how our kiddo's day is going. Everything (meals, diaper changes, etc.) are tracked in a convenient app. More importantly, our kid is thriving in a safe and fun environment. It is obvious that Macarena and the KidSpring team truly care about the children entrusted to them. read more

We absolutely LOVE kidspring! My son started there when they opened and we have never had a single issue. He is 3 now and still looks forward to going to school and even asks to see the owners regularly on the weekends. He will tell you Mr. Troy is his best friend, lol. I have worked in childcare for nearly 20 years and I feel so lucky we found such an amazing place for our busy rambunctious little boy!! read more

If you are looking for childcare in South Austin, KidSpring is open and accepting new families. Ms. Macarena was Robert's teacher and he just LOVED her. Robert is moving on to kindergarten but I highly recommend this local family owned business. Ms. Macarena is a wonderful teacher and caregiver. read more

We were not the right fit for the place. I felt like teachers were constantly on their phone sending pics on the Brightwheel app (like a dozen a day) instead of actually playing and interacting with the children. We moved to another school and have seen a huge difference in our child's behavior, which I think is due to loving/caring teachers who are thoroughly trained. read more
