Centers in Austin & Buda
providing licensed childhood education programs
Our Austin location at 1901 National Park Blvd is open all year from 6:30 am – 6:00 pm for infants and children up through five years of age.
Our Buda location at 1215 Old Black Colony Road is open from 6:30 am – 6:00 pm for infants and children up through five years of age.
Each week we focus on a specific fun topic that is implemented in all areas of the center. Schedules are posted on the bulletin board and sent home so families know what we are working toward each week and can help reinforce or expand on the topic.
We strive to meet the needs of each and every child, and begin each day with devotion to excellence in an age appropriate manner.
Our approach
First Class CDC is a licensed child care center that is locally owned and operated in south Austin and Buda, Texas. Our philosophy is achieved through a warm and caring atmosphere which promotes creativity and growth. We provide social, physical, and educational activities that lead to problem solving and skill building.
We encourage happiness and provide challenging opportunities: opportunities to be creative and opportunities to develop skills to prepare children for daily growth.
We believe early childhood education is critical to child development. Experiences gained in early childhood education set the stage for a child's future. Our teachers have extensive experience with children and actively participate in early childhood education programs.
