The Growing Child Academy

"We love Ms Mary! She is wonderful with my son who loves her and calls her mommy. She has supported his love of dance and he’s talking a ton since he started here. I can tell they’re working on the alphabet and counting and he’s not even 2 yet!"

"Mrs. Flores has provided and continue to provide the BEST services to my twins since she has opened her state licensed daycare. Since my children have begun with the daycare, not only have my twins grown more advance than other children their age, they were taught sign language and Spanish daily and can now sign to other kids and comprehend/respond to Spanish speakers. I love the daycare because the children are able to learn at their own pace, receive individual attention (for example - my son was delayed in speech, everyday she worked with him and now this little guy talks like theres no tomorrow, she will comfort your child when they are missing their parent, she will cheer you on and brag to the moon and back when your child reaches a goal, and if they dont she enourages to keep at it and tomorrow is a new day, she cooks 2 home cooked authentic meals, she has 3 baby proof/safe play spaces for the children to play depending on the weather (it can be inside, on the patio that's 100% enclosed, and an outside gated play area with toys available regardless of age), and baby gates out to enclose the daycare from the exits and remainder of home. There's a camera on site, the daycare is flexible and understanding when life happens, and the daycare follows COVID-19 protocols per CDCA guidelines. I have NEVER ever seen or heard of Mrs. Flores discriminating against any parent or child. She has been in the education industry not just as a director of a daycare but as a fellow teacher and special needs teacher for over 20+ years (and if it makes a difference, this is her second daycare to be a director of, her 1st one was in a different state prior to moving years ago). You will not find another daycare that provides the same affordable services, the same love for your child as if they were her own, or any of the learning experiences anywhere else. Trust me. I've looked in AND surrounding Austin. Thank you so much to The Growing Child Academy for making it easy to go to work and know my babies are loved, safe, and having fun! They absolutely love all their new friends they have gotten to make since starting and have come a LONG way in such a short amount of time. ❤"

"I can't say enough good things about this daycare. I did a lot of research and tried several daycares prior to this one. Ms. Mary is a wonderful teacher and has prior school background! You can tell she truly cares about and loves the kids. I never feel like just a paycheck to them. My daughter loved being there, She was also taught in Spanish and I thought that was great. Ms. Mary is very accommodating with any questions or concerns. She also doesn't charge an arm and a leg with a bunch of hidden fees like most of the other daycares in the area do. Also they have locks on the entrance door and the playground area which I love for safety. Not to mention they have an awesome playground for the kids. I am so grateful for her giving me peace of mind while I'm working, I know my daughter was safe and loved. I would highly recommend her."

"Ms. Mary has been one of the best daycare teachers I have encountered. She is responsible and cares for her students as if they were her own. My daughter has been at her care for a few months and she loves her and the daycare. It is a very clean and organized daycare. I would 100% recommend this daycare to anyone looking for a dependable and caring daycare for their kids."

"Mary is a wonderful preschool teacher! My boys love going to preschool at The Growing Child Academy, they are learning so much! She sends pictures and updates throughout the day and plans fun and educational activities. Highly recommend to any family looking for a safe, reliable, quality childcare option during these stressful times!"
