Prodigy Learning Center
Preschool in New Braunfels, TX 78130
The moment you enter the doorway at Prodigy Learning Center and Child Care L.L.C. you will know why most people in the area consider us the top child care facility in New Braunfels. Many of our children have been with us since they were old enough to be here. This is truly an environment that cares about kids – and puts them first in everything we do!
We have been proudly serving the New Braunfels area since 1996 and are locally owned and operated. We are active members of the New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce.
Prodigy Learning Center and Child Care L.L.C. is nestled on two tree-filled acres of what was once a beautiful thriving pecan orchard Prodigy Learning Center and Child Care’s mission is to “provide a nurturing and risk-free environment where children are allowed to think explore create and perform.”
Our classrooms are full of happy kids led and taught by well trained and motivated caregivers. We employ a full time kitchen supervisor who prepares and serves hot meals – family style – in each child’s classroom each day.
We invite you to browse through our web-site and see what Prodigy Learning Center and Child Care L.L.C is all about. We also invite you to tour our campus between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. We feel it is important to tour during these hours because it will allow you to truly see the interaction between our teachers and the children. Just call or drop by.
We are only two blocks from several elementary schools and provide before and after-school care to many of the schools in both the NBISD and CISD School Districts – including shuttle service.

We Believe
Children learn best when teachers are:
- well trained and educated
- well informed about the specific children being taught
- knowledgeable about child development and how children learn
- well prepared and organized
- responsive to children’s educational/social needs
Children learn best when teachers use (or do)
- developmentally appropriate materials and teaching approaches

Children learn best when the environment is:

For optimum healthy development children need:

- to be recognized acknowledged and encouraged for their strengths and efforts
- to be unconditionally loved

Goals for children taught:
- to make progress in all areas of a child’s development (social-emotional physical intellectual)
