Choosing child care isn’t just about finding an available spot – it’s about finding a place that feels like the right fit for your family. Whether you’re a new parent searching for child care for the first time or you’re considering a change from your current arrangement, the process can feel overwhelming.
Between online searches, tours, recommendations, and waitlists, the amount of time and energy required to make the “right” choice can add up quickly. In fact, Care.com states that parents report seeking multiple caregiving solutions in a single year, often spending months researching options across several apps and websites before deciding.
Kiddie Academy was founded more than 40 years ago and from the beginning, we have focused on creating child care that goes well beyond just supervision to support families and prepare children for life. Here are some of the Kiddie Academy offerings that reflect that commitment:
A Curriculum Designed for Your Child’s Development
As a parent, you want your child to feel confident, curious, and supported as they grow. That’s why Kiddie Academy developed Life Essentials®, our proprietary curriculum built around improving six key outcomes in your child: Character, Confidence, Curiosity, Connection, Critical Thinking, and Creative Expression.
These outcomes guide everything that happens in the classroom – from how educators interact with children to how activities are structured throughout the day. The result is a whole‑child approach that supports academic learning while also nurturing emotional and social development.
Reliable, Flexible Hours
We know your schedule doesn’t stop when the school day ends. Each Kiddie Academy location sets predictable, extended hours designed to support working families and real‑life routines. With consistent weekly schedules and year‑round programs, parents can count on dependable care that fits into their day.
Thoughtfully Planned Meals
Mornings are hectic enough without adding meal prep to the list. That’s why Kiddie Academy provides balanced meals and snacks to support healthy growth. Menus are thoughtfully planned to fuel both bodies and brains, giving parents peace of mind knowing their child is getting the nourishment they need throughout the day.
A Dedicated App That Keeps You Connected, Even When You’re Apart
Being away from your child doesn’t mean being out of the loop. Parents at Kiddie Academy have access to Academy Link®, our exclusive family communication app designed to keep you informed and involved through photos and videos, real-time updates, direct messaging, and more. Not only does this keep you connected from afar, but seeing what your child experienced during the day can inspire meaningful conversations and extended learning with them at home.
Intentional Social Experiences That Help Children Thrive
Children don’t just learn from lessons – they learn from each other. Social interaction is thoughtfully woven into every part of the day at Kiddie Academy, from small‑group activities and collaborative learning to family‑style meals that encourage conversation and independence.
Learning Spaces Designed with Your Child in Mind
The environment your child learns in matters. Each Kiddie Academy classroom is intentionally designed to support curiosity, focus, and comfort at every developmental stage. Spaces feature calming colors, child‑sized furniture that encourages independence, and hands‑on materials that invite exploration across subjects like literacy, math, science, and more. As your child grows, they move into the next developmentally appropriate classroom, to ensure they keep learning and are continuously challenged.
An Investment in More Than Child Care
When you choose child care, you’re choosing more than a place – you’re choosing an experience. At Kiddie Academy, we prioritize your child’s confidence, curiosity, safety, joy, and future. Just take a look at our Parent Testimonials to see the difference. We’re committed to supporting your family every step of the way.
