We’ve been shaping, fueling and nurturing children’s natural curiosity since we opened our first Academy over 40 years ago. We’re driven—through our passion for early childhood education, community commitment and Life Essentials® philosophy—to prepare children for school and for life. We’re here to educate and encourage your child to do more and be more—not just while they’re with us, but outside the classroom.
We believe curiosity and learning generate their own momentum, and we’re dedicated to developing what’s unique in every child we care for.

In our 40 years of operation, our franchises have acquired numerous awards, earning distinction for the excellence of their curriculum, steady growth and community engagement.
Throughout our history, we’ve provided the nurturing and guidance necessary to inspire the uniquely curious energy and eagerness to learn of hundreds of thousands of children.
We continue to perfect and build on how we prepare children for school and for life. We share it with more families and communities every year, in hundreds of Kiddie Academy locations across the country.
The education experts who make up our corporate leadership use their diversity of curriculum and care experience as a vital resource for the onsite owners and children of every single Kiddie Academy.
In addition to incorporating feedback from teachers, directors, Franchisees and the Curriculum Advisory Board, each independently owned and operated Kiddie Academy is encouraged to secure accreditation from one or more nationally recognized organizations.
