My daughter attended the South Austin location for 3 years. We absolutely loved her teachers the whole time. However, it became increasingly clear to us that way the business side is run is very dysfunctional, to say the least. We had to leave INIC in August 2022 after 3 years of close bonds with friends, teachers, and parents, after the final straw in leadership decisions that I wholeheartedly disagreed with. I always believed that the teachers did their very best, but it was clear that much was beyond their control. If I was rating the teachers, I would give 5 stars. But by the way it’s run as a business, I would not recommend INIC to other parents.

Our son has almost finished his first year at INIC and I have nothing but amazing things to say. Having our little one during the pandemic made it extra hard for us to decide which daycare to enroll him in. Any anxiety I had was alleviated by his amazing teachers, Ms. Neldy and Ms. Laura. Not only are the attentive, they truly love the kids in their care. They not only make sure they are taken care of, they make learning fun. The new center director, Helena, is amazing. We always feel communicated with and appreciate how she has jumped in. We are so thankful for INIC and can't recommend it enough.

INIC sets such a high bar for quality, it was very difficult to transition to a new school once we left the Austin area. Our two-year-old only attended INIC for a few months in early 2022 and was in Toddler C. When we were just getting to know the school, Andrea (the director) was very helpful in answering all of our questions, provided us with a tour, and helped ease our concerns, this being the first time our son had been away from us for extended periods. During the first month, our son cried everyday, picked up different bugs, and struggled to adjust to the new environment. But everyone at INIC was so patient and understanding, working with us to get our son slowly acclimated to school. After about a month, our toddler started to look forward to school, especially to the special celebratory days. One day at home, he even started counting in Spanish. :-) Throughout this time, we got daily updates from his teachers, Ms. Karla and Ms. Estela, on how he was doing. When he finally started having good days, they were just as excited as we were, and it really felt like a partnership! Can't thank the teachers and staff at INIC enough for giving us the peace of mind when it came to the care of our son. We really miss them!

I literally love them. The teachers are so kind. The director Paola helped me SO MUCH when I first started my son and she kept it all together during COVID. It's a daycare so accidents and sickness will happen but they communicate and love your child as you do. Definitely come here if you want a place to keep your child safe AND have them learn and have fun!

My son has been going for over a year and I can't believe how much Spanish he can comprehend! The teachers, the director and the front office are wonderful people. I love having access through the camera system but the teachers do a wonderful job sending plenty of photos and videos throughout the day. They also have an app that lets you know what activity your child is doing each day. Love this preschool! Will send my second son once he's a year old!

Not sure where to even begin.. We started at INIC after moving to South Austin for a brief stint, we had loved our last school so when we started a bit apprehensive that we wouldn't love it as much as our previous school, and boy we were wrong. My two children have loved it so much, they love their teachers and Miss Pao, and Miss Karla. INIC is an incredible preschool. Your children will LEARN so much, my 4 and 2 year old are speaking so much Spanish at home. We love the communication that is sent daily from the teachers, we've continuously felt safe as they have adapted measures with COVID. The school and classes are spacious, clean and my children LOVE the constant activities and events throughout the year. The director Paola and her staff are so open with communication lines, easy to reach and always a smile on their face. If you are looking for a community, you will find that here at INIC. They even have a very active PTA for parents who would like to be involved.

Our daughter attended INIC from the time she was about 1 year old til she started Pre-K at AISD this fall. As a first time mom, I was extremely nervous leaving her anywhere! Paola and her team were very nurturing, caring, and treated our daughter like family - all while providing her with great education and play time. The level of care and attention to detail provided by INIC allowed me to feel relaxed day-to-day so that I could focus on other tasks (working full time, home, etc.) while my daughter was in school. The community there is also very wonderful - we still are friends and keep in touch with her former classmates and their families. Definitely recommend INIC to anyone!

We only had a short stay at INIC, but cannot praise the staff enough for the care they provided our son. He attended INIC from 3 months of age until 13 months old. This was also during part of the COVID pandemic and we felt safe having our son attend during this time. The staff took it very seriously with strict protocols in place. The only reason we left was because INIC was out of the way from my Husband's commute to work, therefore we switched to a daycare closer to us. This was indeed a difficult decision for us. We highly recommend INIC for your little ones.

We loved our time at INIC and our daughter attended since she was 4 months old until 2 years old. The school is clean, organized and truly cares for the safety of the staff and children. We felt that our daughter truly excelled at INIC everyday and it was amazing to see her trust and happiness with all of the teachers.

Both of my kids attended INIC. I cannot say enough great things about the school, the staff, the teachers, or the other families. Thank you INIC for being a part of our lives for the past three years!

Our daughter attended this daycare for nearly 2 years and I can't express how much I love this place. The teachers and staff were wonderful. They treated my daughter so well and put my mind at ease when my husband and I first dropped her off at 3 months old. She was always so excited in the mornings when we would drop her off. The learning activities are great and really helped my daughter become bilingual. I was so sad that we had to change daycare due to us moving to another city. But I would definitely recommend this daycare for anyone.

We LOVE INIC! As a new mom I was so hesitant to leave my baby anywhere, but I felt so much love and support at INIC. Both of my children started at 5 months and we have loved every year that has followed . I feel so lucky that we found a school that cares for and loves their students! My son speaks Spanish beautifully and my daughter that is two years younger is following in his bilingual footsteps. I highly recommend INIC.
