Welcome to our preschool, nestled at the corner of Louisiana Street and Francis Street. Conveniently located just five minutes from Downtown Houston and 10 minutes from the Medical Center, our purpose-built 11,500-square-foot facility features a spacious, fully covered outdoor playground, an all-weather age-specific play area, and dedicated rooms for Infants and toddlers.
Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, we are excited to announce that enrollment for children aged six weeks to five years will begin soon.
At Kido Midtown, we offer our unique and highly regarded Spanish immersion program, which combines the best of dual language proficiency, while achieving our aspirational goals for emotional, social, and academic growth in preschoolers.
At Kido, our early childhood philosophy is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, which views children as capable, curious learners. Our Reggio-inspired classrooms reflect this belief through a calming, neutral color palette, a clean aesthetic, and natural elements woven throughout our furniture and decor.
What qualifications do Kido teachers have?
Our early childhood educators bring a range of qualifications to the classroom, from Child Development Associate (CDA) credentials to bachelor's and graduate degrees in Early Childhood Education and related fields. Every Kido teacher meets state preschool teacher qualifications and each one is dedicated to supporting your child's whole development, from emotional wellbeing to academic readiness.
What makes a good preschool teacher?
We believe a good preschool teacher is defined by genuine passion, formal qualifications, ongoing training and the ability to nurture each child's unique development. Every Kido educator is chosen for these qualities, and our robust internal training program gives our team members the support they need to keep growing, both in their education and their careers.
Does Kido have a parent app?
Yes! Kido provides a daycare parent communication app (available on iOS & Android) that keeps you connected to your child's day. Through the app, you'll receive real-time photos, milestones, and direct messages from your child's teacher. And of course, our team always makes time to connect with you in person at drop-off and pickup.
What kind of daily updates will I receive?
Throughout the day, you'll receive regular updates including photos of activities, meal and nap times, learning moments, and any notes from your child's teacher, so you never miss a moment of your child's development.

What is Kido's curriculum?
Our pre-k curriculum, the Kido Early Years Program, is an internationally-designed early childhood curriculum that integrates Montessori preschool curriculum principles, Reggio Emilia, and Multiple Intelligences theory. At Kido, your child develops academically, emotionally, and socially through a play based preschool curriculum tailored to their age.
Does Kido follow Montessori?
Kido incorporates elements of Montessori philosophy alongside Reggio Emilia practices and Multiple Intelligences theory. Rather than following a single approach, our team has blended the best of each into the Kido Early Years Program.
