About Mia Mia Llc

Reggio-Inspired Spanish Immersion Nature Campus

Mia Mia is a family-owned preschool in South Austin that blends Spanish immersion with a deep connection to the natural world. Situated on a unique 5-acre campus, the program offers children the opportunity to interact with goats and chickens, explore a community garden, and engage in creative projects at the Art & Wonder Atelier. Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, the curriculum views children as capable and curious investigators. Director Mariana Villarreal brings over 15 years of international education experience to the program. The facility includes specialized spaces like the Wonder Wood Stage for storytelling and a Sports Lawn for guided movement. With a focus on 'belonging, being, and becoming,' Mia Mia provides a warm, home-like environment where language acquisition happens naturally through play, discovery, and community-centered learning.

Mia Mia is SUCH a special place. My daughters attended Mia Mia’s summer camp, and we couldn’t have been happier here. Mariana and her staff are truly the most caring, attending and wonderful humans. The summer programming was really fun and engaging and the teachers were so loving and attentive; my girls had such an amazing summer and we are so grateful to have found this lovely school. Thank you so much Mia Mia!

We are so grateful to be part of the Mia Mia family! As a Spanish-speaking household, it was incredibly important for us to find a preschool that didn’t just “include” Spanish, but truly valued and supported full Spanish immersion. Mia Mia does just that—and so much more. We have two children enrolled (one part-time), and it has been such a joy to see them flourish. The teachers are caring, intentional, and deeply respectful of each child’s individuality. They meet our kids where they are and gently challenge them to grow—not just in language, but emotionally, socially, and creatively. Another huge bonus is the flexibility in scheduling. Whether you need part-time, full-time, early dismissal, or extended hours, Mia Mia works with families to make sure their needs are met. That flexibility has been incredibly valuable for us as a two-kid household balancing different schedules. The campus is magical. The outdoor spaces and animals provide a calm and natural environment for the kids to explore and learn through play. We’re especially thankful for the strong sense of community. From the teachers to the leadership team, to the other families—it feels warm, welcoming, and grounded in mutual respect and support. Our children’s Spanish skills have continued to deepen and evolve at Mia Mia, and we are so grateful to have found a place that supports and celebrates bilingualism as a strength. If you’re looking for a preschool that truly lives its values—with heart, community, and cultural integrity—Mia Mia is it. ¡Gracias de todo corazón!

We're so grateful to have found Mia Mia! Our daughter loves going to school everyday. The kind and dedicated teachers are a standout - they provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes every child feel valued and supported. The beautiful grounds are the perfect backdrop for outdoor exploration and play. With plenty of space to run around and discover, the kids can freely express themselves and develop essential physical skills. Overall, Mia Mia Preschool is an amazing choice for early childhood education. I highly recommend it to families seeking a nurturing, educational, and fun environment for their little ones!

I cannot recommend Mia Mia highly enough! The school has great communication and fosters a sense of community with both parents and teachers. Everyone who works there seems happy, warm and enthusiastic to be there. This all starts with the director, Mariana, who is lovely and genuinely cares and knows every kid by name. It has honestly been everything we’ve been looking for in a preschool and more. My daughter adjusted to it so quickly and is excited to go every morning. We toured numerous other preschools and were enrolled at another one previously and nothing comes anywhere close to what we’ve experienced at Mia Mia! They are always doing really fun hands on activities that are a great blend of learning and fun.

We truly could not be happier with our experience at Mia Mia. We toured 5+ daycares and were at another school prior to moving over to Mia Mia and nothing we saw or experienced came close to the quality of care and education that Mia Mia provides. The staff is absolutely incredible and truly love the kids. I have never been at peace about sending my babies to daycare until we switched over. Best daycare/preschool in Austin.

Web Report

Aggregated insights from public records & parent discussions

Safety Record

No safety concerns or legal issues were found in public records or news reports. State licensing records (Texas HHS ID 1800703) show the facility has been licensed since August 2024 with no major violations reported in parent-led research summaries. Parents who noted checking the state violation database specifically mentioned Mia Mia as a positive option without the 'red flags' they associated with other local providers.

Parent Reputation

The reputation of Mia Mia Preschool is overwhelmingly positive, with parents describing it as a 'dream school' and a 'community-oriented' environment. Reviewers on parent forums highlight the unique 5-acre campus, the presence of farm animals like goats and chickens, and the Spanish immersion curriculum. A common theme is the 'home-like' atmosphere, with parents feeling that it avoids the 'corporate-y' feel of larger chains.

Staff Insights

No formal employee reviews were found on Glassdoor or Indeed, likely due to the school's relatively recent opening and single-location status. The facility's own communications highlight a team of 'passionate and professionally-equipped teachers,' and parent reviews consistently praise the staff for providing a nurturing environment comparable to 'dropping the kids at grandma's house.'
