Frequently Asked Questions
Are there cameras at Bufi Preschool?
Yes, we do have security cameras on-site. They are used strictly for safety, internal and external monitoring.
Parents do not have access to live camera feeds in order to protect the privacy and safety of all children and staff. Privacy matters.
How will we know how our child is doing during the day?
From the moment of enrollment, an individual and private communication group is created exclusively between the child's parents and the school. Through this channel, we share relevant information about the child's day, important updates, and any necessary communications.
Communication is constant and direct, while always respecting classroom schedules and the educational focus of the day.
If parents would like to speak directly with the teachers, they may request a meeting at any time. Meetings are scheduled in advance to ensure a calm and appropriate setting, without interrupting the classroom routine.
What language is spoken at Bufi Preschool?
Bufi Preschool is a bilingual school where English and Spanish are spoken naturally throughout the day.
When children speak other languages, our staff makes an effort to learn key words and phrases to help each child feel safe, understood, and supported during their transition.
By 3 and 4 years of age, children begin to communicate comfortably in both English and Spanish. Children who graduate from our 4 and 5-year-old (VPK) program leave fully prepared in English, with the skills and confidence needed to successfully transition into more advanced schools.
What is your child-to-teacher ratio?
We maintain low child-to-teacher ratios to ensure individualized attention, safety, and meaningful teacher–child interactions. Our ratios are always below Florida state mandates, allowing teachers to focus on quality learning, guidance, and support for each child.
What ages does Bufi Preschool accept?
Children from 3 months to 5 years, in three programs: Infants (3–11 months), Toddlers (12 months–3 years) and Pre-Kindergarten (3–5 years).
Is Bufi a VPK provider? What is VPK?
Yes. VPK (Voluntary Prekindergarten) is Florida's state-funded pre-K program for children who turn 4 by September 1. Bufi Preschool is a VPK provider: the state covers the VPK instructional hours, and extended-day care outside those hours is optional and paid for by the families who choose it. Ask us about the current year's schedule and how to get the VPK certificate from the Miami-Dade Early Learning Coalition.

There's no better place in Doral for our children. Bufi is our home; my daughter loved every year there until she moved on to kindergarten. The love, dedication and commitment make Bufi everything that's right for a daycare and even VPK.

Offers Pre-K to VPK programs! Every teacher is so passionate — Teacher Dubraska in VPK and Teacher Omaira in the 3-year-olds are very dedicated. The staff care about the growth and learning of the children.

After trying two different preschools, we finally found a place that excels in every way. The quality of education is excellent, and the teachers are incredibly attentive and involved in the children's development.

My daughter attended Bufi from 1½ until she graduated VPK at 5. She was already reading before starting VPK! I especially loved receiving daily photos of the activities they were doing.
