Preschool

Explore. Create. Connect.

We strive to create an atmosphere in which each child can develop socially, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and intellectually. We offer an educational experience through a flexible, well-planned program. The basis of the program is that play is learning. We offer far more than a daycare; children explore, create and connect at FUMP. 

FUMP is located in the heart of downtown Austin and offers your family a unique experience with the amenities of our location. We enjoy visits from the Austin Public Library, the Austin Nature Center, the Austin Fire Department, the DPS Mounted Patrol, and more!

Our Preschool Curriculum

Our Preschool Curriculum

What is the key ingredient for high-quality education? Low teacher-to-child ratios and low group sizes. Why is that important? 

  • The teachers are able to know each child on an individual level.
  • Teachers track their children’s development in each domain of growth: cognitive, language, physical, social, and emotional.
  • Teachers create individualized curricula and classroom experiences accordingly to stretch their knowledge and learning.
  • Teachers can provide individual social and emotional support during conflict resolution (acknowledging feelings, sharing, taking turns, and more.)
  • Our classrooms are cheerful, calm, and full of enthusiastically exploring children, with ample room and materials.

Our tuition rates may be slightly higher than other programs due to our low ratios, and the benefits are tangible. FUMP is a high-quality program based on the preschool-aged child’s unique interests, needs, and abilities. At FUMP, we place children’s needs first, especially the need for connection with their teachers and peers in an optimal learning setting.
