Learn While You Play — A Bilingual Preschool Rooted in Leander, TX

A nature-loving, Spanish-immersion preschool for children 18 months to 5 years old, where every child is known by name — not just enrolled.

Ages 18 Months to 5 Years — A Classroom for Every Stage

Every classroom at Colibrí is built around how children actually grow at that age — not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.

Motor skills, music, and first friendships.

Group play, color, and growing independence.

Pre-Kindergarten

Salón Rojos

Values, imagination, and kindergarten readiness.

Room to Run, Play, and Explore

Most preschools this size squeeze outdoor time into a small fenced corner. At Colibrí, our grounds are genuinely large — a shaded, tree-covered campus with multiple play areas, soft turf surfaces, and space for kids to actually run. Add in our on-site garden and greenhouse, and outdoor learning becomes part of the daily rhythm, not an afterthought.

A Day Full of Learning, Play, and Two Languages

From morning circle songs in Spanish and English to outdoor garden time, art, music, and quiet rest, every day at Colibrí is designed to be full — without ever feeling rushed.

Real Bilingual Fluency, Built Every Day

At Colibrí, Spanish isn’t a subject — it’s the language of the classroom. Children hear it in morning greetings, songs, stories, and everyday instructions, alongside English, from age 18 months. This natural, immersive exposure is how young children build real conversational fluency, not memorized vocabulary.

Led by Educators, Not a Corporation

Colibrí was co-founded by Ms. Shirley and Ms. Salma — two educators who built the school they wanted for their own children. Both are still hands-on at the school today.

What Colibrí Families Are Saying

I cannot even begin to express how much I adore and am grateful for Ms Salma, Ms Shirley and all of the teachers at Colibrí. The teachers are very kind, loving, and pa-tient. My daughter has learned so much including speaking and understanding basic conversational Spanish.

— Michelle M.

Love, love, love this school! From the instant we did our tour and met Ms. Salma and Ms. Shirley we knew this school was different. All the staff is exceptional and caring!

— Larissa Felan

We are so happy to have found Colibrí for my son's preschool year. The teachers are kind, the director is attentive and responsive, and my son is learning so much while enjoying school. Plus, we're paying much less than our previous daycare without any drop in the quality of care.
