Montessori is a child-centered educational approach that encourages independence, hands-on learning,
concentration, and respect for each child’s natural development.

We do not provide lunch meals. We ask families to pack their child’s snack/lunch for the midday meal between 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM.

We do provide one morning snack, and we also provide an afternoon snack for our after-school program.

We follow each infant’s individual feeding and nap schedule to provide personalized care and comfort throughout the day.

What makes our school special is that we are a Spanish immersion school, giving children the opportunity to learn in a bilingual environment.
We are also a small school, which allows us to give each child more personal attention compared to larger corporate centers.
Most importantly, we are an authentic Montessori school focused on education and child development—not just daycare. We prioritize helping children learn, grow, and succeed. If a child needs extra support, we communicate with families so each child receives the best experience possible.

If we currently have space available, your child may be able to start as soon as possible once you complete our enrollment process. This includes submitting the required paperwork, enrollment forms, and any additional documents needed. Our team will guide you through each step and let you know the earliest available start date based on classroom availability.

You can schedule a tour by emailing Admin@micasitaaustin.com or by calling us directly at (512) 614-0021. Once you reach out, we will provide you with the next available tour dates and times.

We prefer to schedule tours in the morning between 8:30 AM – 10:30 AM, as this is during the children’s work cycle. This gives families the opportunity to see how focused the children are, observe the classroom environment, and experience everything they are learning.

If those times do not work for you, we are happy to accommodate other scheduling needs whenever possible. Just reach out, and we will work with you to find a time that fits your schedule.
