The Moments Our Families Remember

"Since enrolling him at Alma Flor Ada, I have never had concerns when dropping him off each day. He began attending at age two, and by age four he was proudly reading full sentences in Spanish. Although English is the primary language in our home, he has adapted exceptionally well and continues to thrive in both languages."

"Our three-year-old started attending AFA after our in-home daycare closed, and we are all in love. I toured 7 other centers and knew right away when I walked into AFA that it was the one. The staff is amazing, and our daughter is thriving!"

"Our son went from being nervous the first week to excitedly sprinting into school every morning. Both kids come home singing in Spanish. Our daughter picked up Spanish incredibly quickly, speaking in full sentences within about six months, and is now fully prepared to continue to her Spanish immersion kindergarten."

"We've had positive experiences with other daycares in Woodbury, but our son needed a more personal approach. The Spanish immersion model has been very effective. It's not just vocabulary here and there, we're now able to have full conversations in Spanish at home with our toddler. I feel confident he'll enter Kindergarten a total rockstar."

"As a non-Spanish-speaking family, we are amazed at how confident and prepared our daughter now feels to enter Spanish Immersion Kindergarten with the skills to thrive. It's a nurturing, supportive, and inspiring place for children to grow."

"As a teacher, I recommend Alma Flor Ada with zero regrets. I've been in elementary (K-8) for 27 years, and I can tell you this is the BEST curriculum and community to help you raise, educate, and develop your child as a bilingual young person. The care the AFA staff give is unique, special, and magical."

"My son, who has ADHD and is very hyperactive, THRIVES at AFA! They follow his IEP plan to a T. There are so many activities to keep the kids engaged and excited to learn. They have done more at AFA in a month than any other center did over a year. If you are considering this center, look no further!"

"Such a fantastic year of our lives! My daughter made amazing friends and made leaps and bounds in her Spanish fluency. She just completed her FAST test and scored in the 92nd percentile in Spanish reading. We cannot recommend this program enough!"

"We have been at AFA for 3+ years and it is by far the best childcare and preschool center my children have attended or toured. My son just entered Spanish immersion kindergarten totally prepared. He is conversational in Spanish and has an outstanding vocabulary in both English and Spanish."

"AFA is a world-class early childhood Spanish immersion program, and we feel so lucky our kids attend. Their 90/10 bilingual immersion model is so rich for our little ones' brain development and cultural awareness. They were also wonderful with my son's peanut allergy, a careful, concerned, and aware community."

"Best preschool ever, with the most loving and caring staff. My son started when he was 2, and the way his Spanish has improved is unbelievable. I'm always amazed when we're out in public and he comfortably speaks Spanish to strangers. AFA is amazing!"

"When I think of Alma Flor Ada, the first word that comes to mind is family. From day one, I felt nothing but love, support, and genuine care. My son absolutely loves going. He is challenged, encouraged, and understood, and I can see how much he thrives in their care."
