O2B Kids Midtown

I’ve struggled to write this because it’s hard to find the words to describe how wonderful Mrs. Myrtis is. So I asked my son “what do you like about Mrs. Myrtis?” He said “sometimes I go to school crying and she makes me feel better. She sits with me on the big playground. Sometimes I’m on the rug by myself all alone and I want people to sit with me and she calls them over to sit with me.” I love his answer because he is describing inclusion and that’s what I love most about Mrs. Myrtis. I met her last year when she peeked over and said “oh it’s going to rain” I said huh? She said Andrew has shoes on today, it rains when he wears shoes. I thought about it, and she was right. On sunny days he would leave the house with no shoes and put them on in the classroom, he didn’t like his feet getting wet so if it had rained or was raining he’d let me get his shoes on in the house. They became great friends and he wanted to move up to her class and needing to be potty trained to do that was one of the biggest motivators for him to potty train. He hates getting dressed and would fight putting pants on. I said “do you want to wear a dress?” one day in frustration. And he said yeah, and then said he wanted to wear a dress every day after that, so I bought him a dress. He wore it to school and she asked for an explanation and I explained the fighting about getting dressed, and that I wear dresses, his sister wears dresses, his cousin and best friend wears dresses, there’s nothing wrong with wearing dresses. She nodded and said supporting our kids in little ways now shows them you’ll support them in big ways when they’re older. I get it. She gets him in ways that a lot of other people don’t and I will always love her for that.

Ms.Brenda is AMAZING! My granddaughter was her student and LOVED her class! Every morning she was SO excited to go to Ms.Brenda’s class and have fun. She taught my granddaughter so much that she would come home and tell me everything she could.

I cannot begin to express how much gratitude I have for this facility. My daughter began attending O2B kids midtown since 10 months old and she will soon be graduating VPK this year! Her teachers have taught her so much and she loves being their student. Thank you Ms. Brenda, Ms. Elizabeth, and Ms. River for your patience and guidance with her each day. She has learned so much and I know that she will be well prepared for Kindergarten!

02B has some awesome teachers and curriculum. One of the most talented teachers working at this location is Ms. Brenda Del Valle. She has belonged to the organization for many years and has touched so many families in that time, her dedication and time is so valuable. She is an amazing teacher and leader. To know her/worked with her/or had a child in her class is to love her.

It has truly been a pleasure having Brenda as my daughter’s teacher. She consistently goes above and beyond for her students and is incredibly driven and motivated. You can genuinely see how much she loves what she does, and it shows in the amazing job she does every day. This has been my first O2B experience, and because of Brenda, I am confidently referring all of my staff to enroll their children in VPK. She has made a lasting impression on our family!
