Welcome to Our School
Welcome to The Children's Courtyard private preschool in Austin, TX! My name is Monique Mokobia and I am the campus director of the Metric location. I have over 60 credit hours in child development coursework from the University of New Orleans and Austin Community College. I have worked in early education for 14 years, and all of those years have been at The Children's Courtyard. I also hold a Texas Director's Certification.
At our center, we offer Infant Care, Preschool programs, and a fun 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 through play and hands-on exploration.
Our teachers attend ongoing training courses in all areas of child development and provide quality care with enriched programs across all age groups. Our teachers are committed to helping your child master all of those very important milestones. They provide nurture and care while helping children build knowledge and confidence.
Since our school opened in 2002, we have provided a safe and welcoming learning environment that involves families in their child’s learning. We maintain an open-door policy for anyone who would like to talk. We are also AdvancEd accredited.

Ashly Avery , Associate Director
Certifications: Child Development Associate in Infants and Toddlers
I have been in this field for eight years and attended The Ohio State University and Wright State University to study early childhood education. My favorite part about working with kids is watching how they learn and seeing them reach their milestones. Fun Fact: I absolutely love all things Disney and am truly a child at heart.

Alexis Smith, Assistant Director
Education: Bachelor of Science in Biology
I have been in early education for over seven years. Before becoming an assistant director, I was a lead pre-k teacher. It is the greatest feeling to be involved in a child's learning process. I think the best gift is that I have the opportunity to be the adult that gets the chance to know them, hear them, comfort them, and appreciate them.
