About

Kiddie Academy provides children with a solid academic foundation by implementing a multi-sensory integrated approach to education. Our days are filled with learning and fun, the key ingredients of our Life Essentials® educational philosophy. Our goal is to prepare the global citizens of tomorrow by exposing children to vast forms of education supported by our AdvancEd accredited curriculum and incorporating music program, foreign language, science, technology, and even health & fitness program. See the smiles on your child’s face every day! The words from our children’s parents will impress you. Some of the best learning happens without your child knowing it, as our skilled teachers teach children to be independent learners and thinkers while engaging them in fun play-based activities. It takes more than love and passion to do this; this is why our lead teachers hold advanced degrees. Learning a second language at a young age provides children with a firm foundation for greater educational success. We offer Spanish lessons in our infant to 2 year old classrooms. Our full-day Spanish Bilingual Program is available for children in the Pre K classes. Research has shown that it is never too early to begin exposing children to a second language. We have developed this unique preschool program with a coordinated approach to the English curriculum and to everyday, meaningful conversation. We realize the tremendous level of trust you place in a childcare provider. From hot meals to our indoor gym, Kiddie Academy is more than daycare. You want your child to thrive in an environment that's as clean, safe and nurturing as your home. Kiddie Academy sets the standards for safety, education and trust.

We were the first family to use Kiddie Academy in West End so we watched the facilities being built and have seen as they expanded from just our one child to full classrooms. We are absolutely thrilled with the care our daughter receives and are so happy we found this center. A few of our favorite things: 1. The teachers have iPad minis and use them to record meals, naps and diaper changes. We get an email every day with the details of her day. This also connects to an app that we can check on our phone. 2. They also use this app to send out important center reminders as well as the weekly menu. We also get updates of what we need to bring in for the next day (more wipes, more snacks). 3. The iPads and app allow them to send us videos and photos during the day if something is going on. For example, she was walking for them before she did at home so they sent us a video. Also, when I was traveling for work they sent extra photos. 4. Even at a young age there is a curriculum and they do a lot of play that enhances motor skills, coordination and sharing. Nothing rigid, but I like that they have an overall guide for even the infant rooms. 5. They adapt to different children and their needs. When our daughter was still in the infant room, but walking, they would let her spend part of the day in the toddler room where there was more movement than with the younger infants. Overall we cannot say enough wonderful things about this center and think any child would thrive in their care.
