About Bilingual Child Academy Stone Oak
Bilingual Spanish Immersion at Stone Oak
Bilingual Child Academy is a family-operated center led by Dr. Natalia De La Vega, a veteran educator with a Doctorate in Education. Our program provides a complete Spanish language immersion experience through a play-based, rigorous curriculum. We utilize Frog Street Press for all age groups and the Estrellita Accelerated Reading program for our preschool and Pre-K students. Our holistic approach ensures that every child develops cognitive, social-emotional, and physical skills in a nurturing, learner-centered environment. The academy follows the Conscious Discipline model for classroom management, focusing on self-regulation and constructive problem-solving. Located in a bright, modern facility, we offer a safe haven where children are exposed to cultural diversity and linguistic richness. From our "Pequeos Tesoros" infants to our elementary enrichment campers, we are dedicated to building a community of lifelong bilingual learners.
What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
We love BCA. It’s been some wonderful years for our kids full of love and happiness. They have truly made our kids early childhood magical. Staff and teachers are amazing and we can truly feel warmth and love. It has helped our kids grow emotionally, in knowledge and confidence so they are prepared for their next chapter.
We are so honored to have our girls at BCA. The Leadership and teachers show compassion and heart for the littles. The two things I appreciate the most that BCA offers is the constant updates on how our kids are doing with pictures through the app Copilot and they are fed with homemade food provided by BCA made at BCA. Our girls love attending school everyday and have gained so much knowledge with the Spanish learning. Our girls started not knowing a word of Spanish and in just under a year they can speak sentences at a time expressing exactly how they feel or asking for certain foods at home and even manners. We made a really good decision choosing BCA. You won’t be disappointed. We love all the ladies there.
The teachers and staff at BCA will always be part of our village and in our hearts. My son was there for four years, from the baby classroom up until the day he went to Kindergarten. The care, love, dedication is unparalleled. I truly felt like they cared about him as much as we did. The staff went above and beyond teaching him not only academics (including Spanish!), but also how to be a good citizen and friend. There is no better place for your child than with the loving teachers of BCA Stone Oak.
We are incredibly grateful for the years of love, care, and support our child received at Bilingual Child Academy. From day one, the staff created a nurturing, bilingual environment that helped our little one grow socially, emotionally, and academically. The teachers are warm, attentive, and truly invested in each child’s development. It’s bittersweet to say goodbye as our child moves on to the next chapter, but we leave with nothing but appreciation and wonderful memories. Thank you, BCA, for being such a special part of our child’s early years—we couldn’t have asked for a better place!
Such a great school! So much more than just a daycare… they teach the kiddos so much! And having your children learn Spanish is such a gift for them and an investment into their future! My daughter had such an amazing experience here! The staff is so caring and considerate. It’s not just a job for them because they genuinely care about the children… it really shows! I wish I would have known about them sooner! I would highly recommend to anyone!! We are really going to miss it here!!!
