The Katmint Learning Initiative

Where do I begin? The Katmint Learning Initiative has been a blessing to my family. All 3 of my kids have started their academic journey there and it has made a world of a difference. Each one of my kids left Katmint reading above their grade level. They are all honor roll students and I owe it all to the program at KLI. The staff is so pleasant and helpful. I would recommend all parents to send their kids to this amazing institution.

As a community leader, parent, and advocate for youth empowerment, I can confidently say that the KatMint Learning Institute is a gem in Brooklyn. Their commitment to professionalism and excellence is felt the moment you walk through the doors. The environment is consistently clean, welcoming, and—most importantly—safe for children to learn, explore, and thrive. What sets katMint apart is their dual focus: not only do they nurture the growth of our children, but they also offer valuable wellness support for adults. As a parent, having access to a space that prioritizes both child development and adult well-being is a rare and powerful gift. Thank you, KatMint, for being a trusted, intentional space where children feel seen and families feel supported.

My cousins attended Katmit ages 2 and 18 months. The activities were developmentally appropriate for their age group, the spaces were clean, welcoming, organized, and appropriate for their age. The teachers were attentive, attuned to the students, and engaging. They really enjoyed their time with Katmit.

Andre and the Katmint team are incredibly skilled, caring, and nurturing in their efforts to build children in a holistic manner. They are wonderful members of the Brooklyn community that are working for a brighter future for all.

My girls have been attending The Katmint for i think almost two years and boy this place is like their second home. From the staff to the parents, such an amazing community. The stuff takes good care and is very attentive to the kids. The directors really care for the family and provide excellent service. My girls love going to school everyday. 😊 thank you Katmint for everything you do!

The Katmint team consistently goes above and beyond for their students, truly embodying what it means to support and uplift a community.

I brought my two sons here and they had a blast, the teachers were warming and they loved every minute of it.

We were among the 1st families welcomed to the Katmint family. Our daughter spent 3 amazing years there. The intimate care given to her by each and every staff member can not be quantified. While there were a few growing pains we always had a platform to discuss concerns and our goals for our daughter which were well met. The programs and offerings are extremely well thought out and diverse, the children are exposed to a plethora of activities ranging from crafts, field trips, yoga, and even Dj-ing to name a few. The Katmint is not a daycare or school its a community oriented family filled with amazing children and a staff that has left a tremendously positive impact on our daughter. Thank You Katmint!

My now 7 year old attended Katmint and my 2 year old goes there. I love this preschool so much! The vision of the school, the programs offered and (especially) the teachers are so amazing!! I wouldn’t want to send my kids anywhere else in Brooklyn!

Our son attended Katmint from age 22 months to 3.5 years. He loved it and so did we!! I never had a doubt that my son wasn't being cared for exceptionally well. He was always seen as an individual, not a number. He was potty-trained there, he learned to express himself and his feelings there, he learned to identify all the letters of the alphabet there, he learned to write his name there, he learned to read site words there, he learned to share and to take responsibility for his behavior there. I wish I could say that I taught him these things myself, but I give the Katmint staff all the credit. From yoga, to gardening, to music, to capoeira, to science, to drama and dance... He had the most well-rounded learning experience. Our family loves and misses the Katmint dearly. Now that our son has started pre-k, I fear that nothing will live up to our high expectations of what early childhood education should be. The Katmint is a small business, and has its glitches like any other. But my son was loved and a part of a diverse, genuine community, and that's what matters most. I would reccomended the Katmint to anyone!
