What Our Families Say

My son has been at BIA since he was 4 months old and in these two years it has been an incredible experience! The teachers are really good, concerned about each child and his evolution. The development of my son has been impressive, and I love that he can speak in Spanish and English and in both languages he understands everything perfectly. Excellent experience, highly recommended for any dad who wants to feel not only the peace of mind that they are taking care of their child but also that they are focused on his development.

The School Leadership team is amazing, My 4 years old teachers go above and beyond every single day. All my kids have gone through BIA, and we absolutely love it. Perfect mix of Love, Care and Intellectual Challenge. A true Home away from Home 🙂

We've had a wonderful experience the past 3 years. Such a nuturing and safe environment. You feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The teachers and administrators really care about the students and it shows. I also like the feedback throughout the year. We're really going to miss BIA! Highly recommend!

Since my son started at the school he was progressed significantly! He is more attentive and engaging. I really like that there is a curriculum and he learns something new everyday. And the best part is that he is genuinely happy with his classmates and teachers.

Great teachers, good setup for toddlers and other kids, excellent communication with parents.

My son started at BIA at 15 months and we’ve had an incredible experience so far. The teachers are amazing and show genuine interest in the kids development. They provide constant updates, pics and videos through ClassDojo so you always have an idea of how the day is going!

We have been attending this preschool for the past 6 years with all of our children. We couldn’t be happier with the education and love shown to them through all of the programs and stages. I would recommend this school to anyone in the Brickell area.

VESS is carefully crafted to utilize research-based strategies during play to go beyond targeting developmental stages and into nurturing important Mind Habits and thinking skills: Critical thinking, innovation, grit, a scientific mindset, music and art appreciation, bilingualism, and emotional intelligence.
