Supporting Our Community

Welcome to Our School
Welcome to The Children’s Courtyard in Austin, TX! My name is Kimberly and I am the campus director of the beautiful Spicewood location. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in elementary education and have been an educator for more than 30 years.
Our school offers Infant Care, Preschool programs, and a wonderful School Age program. Our curriculum has been designed to meet the developmental needs of each age group and our programs allow time for skill-based learning as well as play.
Our teachers attend ongoing training courses in all areas of child development and provide quality care with enriched programs across all age groups.
We create a warm and welcoming environment and maintain an open-door policy for anyone who would like to talk. We plan monthly events for our families so they have an opportunity to meet each other and enjoy the exciting activities our teachers plan on a daily basis.
The health and safety of each child, family, and our staff are of the utmost importance to us here at Spicewood. We perform daily health checks on all of our children and staff; along with maintaining our already vigorous cleaning procedures throughout each day.
I encourage you to schedule a tour of our beautiful Children's Courtyard educational daycare at Spicewood in Austin, TX. Come see all that we have to offer your family!
