In the first two weeks of attending A New Day, my granddaughter transformed from hesitation to excitement and wants to go to "school" even on her off days!! There are COVID health and safety precautions in place which has provided me with peace of mind. We couldn't be happier and are so pleased to have found A New Day. Highly recommend!!

We love A New Day! My two boys started in July 2022 at 2 and 4 years old and have thrived at the…read moreschool. They are excited every day to tell me about what they've learned, friends, teachers, art projects, and outside time. My older son has blossomed socially. Where he was once hesitant, through his experience at A New Day, he now has the confidence to approach friends, new and old. My younger son is so proud of his work that he often takes it out of his bag at pick-up time to show me. The school has fun events and learning activities throughout the year. Big hits with my kids included water play days in the summer, growing a garden, planting flowers, new playground equipment, crafts, solar system lessons, and special events for Mother's and Father's Day. The teachers and the owner, Irma, are fantastic. You could not ask for better teacher communication, and Irma even responds on nights and weekends. They send parents lesson plan information and suggest related at-home activities. I love that they use an app to share daily updates and pictures. They've captured some beautiful images of my sons, sometimes together. I don't know how they do it, but the staff has never lost one item sent to school. Finally, the hours for A New Day are better than most schools for working parents.

I could not praise Goddard enough, in particular this location by the BSW hospital more. Raul, the owner and Malorie have been so flexible and reasonable. We work odd hours and it has helped to have a daycare be understanding of that. They employ their teachers with high expectations and are completely transparent which is reassuring to parents leaving children in their care. We will miss them as our time at daycare is almost up!

Goddard Lakeway gets our vote for the best preschool/daycare in the area.

The owner Raul and director Malorie are wonderfully awesome and as accommodating as they could possibly be. I love seeing the walls and windows that are decorated with pictures that the children drew or themes that the children are learning about. All of the teachers are seriously wonderful and amazing. They communicate with parents via the Tadpole app with daily reports, announcements, and pictures. I have total peace in mind when I drop my kids off every weekday. I know that they both love their school and are very comfortable with all their teachers.

We love the small school feel of it, with community and teachers who know the children well. The school is an establishment in the community, and I meet many people with grown kids who attended there. My kids love the shady playground, and my older kid who is no longer there still maintains that it has the best swings in Austin. There is also a nice open indoor hall for rainy or hot days, as well as activities like Soccer Shots they offer. There is a healthy breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack cooked each day by the school chef. The school is play based and focused on learning through play, which I think is perfect for this age. Thank you First English.

The staff provides a caring, safe, supportive and educational environment for the children, with a bonus of prioritizing social-emotional learning and Montessori-esque methods.

Highly recommend.

The admin staff work extremely hard to provide the best in childcare, Hannah herself is dedicated to fundraising to add staff and amenities so that each child can enjoy their time at daycare even more. Their communication is top notch, especially throughout the coronovirus pandemic, I've always felt informed about what was going on with the school and how they're making changes to keep everyone safe. I could go on and on, but if you're wanting a daycare who will love your children as much as you do then look no further than Hannah's World.
