My 6 month old daughter was with Didáctica for 6 months. We absolutely loved this daycare. The staff are all super friendly and nice and the director Gabby is very kind and super responsive. I love how for the infant class there were cameras so we could watch her at anytime! I also love the brightwheel app they used to share with us her schedule, multiple pictures throughout the day, and we could communicate with them on there. The only reason we left was because we moved out of state and this was the hardest part of the move was pulling her out of this amazing daycare. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

At first, the decision to put my son in daycare was so hard. I knew he would love the social interaction, but I felt guilty not being the one with my son the majority of the time. I’m sure many parents feel this way when picking a new day care. But let me ease your mind. Every single teacher and staff member here genuinely cares. I had no clue they would pay such close attention to detail, and be so responsive with any questions I have or changes I make to my son’s routine. I don’t know how Gaby the director does it, but she’s got the most amazing memory and always has time to spend with me when I need to speak with her. I feel like I’m leaving my son with family every morning when I drop him off with Miss Gladys and Miss Nelly. That right there is enough to love this place, but on top of that, my son is learning Spanish at an incredible rate. Something that I would never have been able to provide for him at this time. I’m truly so grateful for everyone here.

Didáctica has been a great preschool for our kids. We got our first enrolled since she was 9 months old and seeing how great she did we knew that’s where we wanted to enroll our second even earlier. We are in love with the curriculum. Having them learn a second language since they were babies has really helped them develop and it’s been fun trying to practice with them. The whole staff is caring, lovely and is always on the lookout for our needs. The director, Miss Gaby, always answers our concerns and reassures us about how our kids are doing. Her costumer service is always personal and she makes sure to answer everything herself, which we’ve never seen before and makes this the best experience we have had. We highly recommend Didactica for your kids. We kept looking for a while around the whole south after moving to Austin and we are sure we found the best. Thank you Didactica Preschool and Miss Gaby for everything!

We have been very happy here! The director Gabby is very responsive, unlike some schools that we interviewed. We received lots of communication from the school on the upcoming curriculum, what our kids are doing, and extracurricular opportunities like soccer or tennis. Most importantly our son has been very happy and is thriving! He knows his school, hugs his teachers, and is speaking both English and Spanish consistently, as well as mastering the basic curriculum that is right for his age.
