Honoring 25 Years of Inspiring Young Minds

This year marks the 25th anniversary of our locally owned, family-operated center! Proudly woman-owned, we’ve spent decades nurturing young minds, building a strong community, and creating a legacy of quality care. As we celebrate this incredible milestone, we’ll continue to inspire and support families every day.

English, Spanish, Mandarin, or French Teach Them Diversity

In today’s world, speaking a second, third, or even fourth language is a tremendous advantage. As your child learns English, Spanish, Mandarin or French, it opens doors to opportunities later in life and is proven to help children focus, plan, and problem-solve better.

A Hands-On Curriculum With Lots of Playtime

Our balanced curriculum blends engaging activities with skill-building exercises to enhance vocabulary, knowledge, and cognitive development. While children have fun, they also expand their understanding of the world, building a solid foundation for future learning.

Over the past three years, students from Crossing Borders have shown significant improvement in Spanish retention, both orally and in reading skills, by the time they enter Mark Twain's dual language program. These children are coming in with advanced language abilities, including basic reading in Spanish, making Crossing Borders an advantageous program for developing language skills.

A Multicultural Environment Represents the World

Your child gains an experiential understanding of other people, their traditions, and their countries. This understanding facilitates language learning, and for many kids, it gives them the desire and confidence to explore other countries and study or work abroad.

Exciting Enrichments Uncover New Talents & Interests

Diverse all-inclusive enrichment activities, including music, art, yoga, language, dance, and STEAM, help your child discover new interests and talents. These engaging, hands-on experiences support creativity, cognitive growth, and social skills, fostering a well-rounded foundation for lifelong learning and development.

Hear What Parents Have To Say...

"The teachers are patient, kind, and attentive to each child unique needs..."

My son has attended crossing borders since he was a year old. The experience has always been amazing. The teachers are patient, kind, and attentive to each child unique needs. My son was able to learn a new language and meet new friends. He was also well prepared for kindergarten.
- Danielle S.

"The teachers are incredibly patient, nurturing, and truly invested in each child’s growth..."

Not only has my daughter developed strong language skills, but they’ve also gained confidence in expressing themselves. The staff goes above and beyond to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where every child feels valued and supported. We’ve noticed tremendous growth in our child’s communication and social skills, which has been amazing to witness.
- Zenaida V.

"The entire faculty and staff are always so accommodating and friendly..."

There was no transition stress at all—my daughter fell in love with the school right away! This nurturing environment not only helped her adjust to school life in the U.S. but also made learning an enjoyable experience. We deeply appreciate all the hard work and dedication of the school team. Thank you for giving my daughter such a positive and memorable start!
- Ffion

"The teachers and administrative team are the most loving, creating a very nice environment..."

I want to start of by thanking Crossing Borders Preschool, for the amazing education my daughter is receiving as well with the help of her amazing teachers . My daughter enjoys coming to school and looks forward everyday to have fun with her friends. Although she is just in the 2 year old class her speech development has improved so much. I know she has so much more to learn and explore here in CBP.
- Jacquelin R.

"The staff is caring and attentive and my son is happy there and he seems to be learning a lot..."

Our daughter was in a Spanish immersion class for two years (Pre-K 3 and Pre-K 4). When she moved on to kindergarten at a local public school, she tested fluent for Spanish and was able to enter into a dual language program. On top of her proficiency in Spanish, she learned other age appropriate skills (colors / numbers / letters / writing her name/recognizing letter sounds). I absolutely would recommend Crossing Borders to anyone!
- Farrah L.

"CB is an amazing school, teachers are loving and caring, It is a very clean , safe environment..."

He loves going into school every day - and given that we do not speak any Spanish at home - his grasp of the language has amazed us. Ms. Yessenia and Ms. Flor were just absolutely amazing as teachers. Every teacher and class assistant he has had has been so great! The admin staff has also always been so quick with responses and assistance when we need and we have met so many great friends through our years at Crossing Borders.
- Prashini M.

"They’re professional and knowledgeable, super loving and caring..."

Our four children all went to Crossing Borders. They had a fantastic time. This place goes beyond learning and they truly know you and your children and you become part of their family. We’ve always felt very at ease knowing our kids are well cared for at Crossing Borders. Additionally, it’s been exciting to watch them learn a new language and become confident utilizing it in everyday speech.
- Nathan M.

"The staff was awesome and our kiddo picked up some Spanish pretty quickly..."

Our son has attended Crossing Borders since he was almost 2 years old and he is 4 now. We have loved the teachers, administration, curriculum, and international exposure. The parents have been awesome to be around. My son has made fabulous friends that we hope he has for a long time. We highly recommend this school and could not think of a better place for our son.
- Alexandra C.

"The staff are wonderful, kind, and patient. love being able to check in during the day via the app..."

My son attended Crossing Borders for a year in the Mandarin class. In the year that he was there, he learned so much and loved it! Before coming to CB, he was on the shy side however we noticed that after a few months of being there, his confidence grew and became a lot more open! Ms. Jessica is a wonderful teacher and all the kids love her. All the teachers and staff are friendly and helpful. We will miss CB but hope to be back for the spring and summer camps!
- Teresa L.

"From administration to the staff to security, they are all friendly and impressive..."

My two sons thoroughly loved attending Crossing Borders. The school creates such a wonderful environment, very positive and loving which is key to why I feel my sons thrived there. The management is very organized and responsive. And the hours of coverage are so helpful for working parents. I highly recommend crossing borders for all parents, and not even just for the language, but for all the other support for development at this age that they provide.
- Luz V.

"The communication is highly effective, and all teachers demonstrate joy and sincere care..."

It has being an AMAZING experience all over around. The teachers, the director, the ambience, the program, communication, updates throughout the day, rules, guidelines, the activities and the most important the caring, safety and professionalism. They definitely want for your children to be successful in everything they do! It's proven. Will not choose another school if we were given the chance again.
- Alfonso Z.

"The staff and teachers have given her love and care that has surpassed our expectations..."

Staff seems very friendly! They have great cleaning and safety procedures. It's my son's first school so don't have much to compare it to but we are happy with the place. They offer for a small fee snacks and lunches everyday. Curriculum seems worth while and more than you would receive at a regular daycare. Overall quote happy with our experience thus far.
