" I love that my child gets to do activities in her own way. Sometimes she works on her own, sometimes with others. And even when she's playing, her teachers make it educational."

Why We Are Different Than Nursery Schools
The term nursery school can mean many things
At Kiddie Academy,® you always know you're getting the best
There are many definitions for nursery school. That can be a problem because you never know exactly what you're going to get. Some are more like day care schools; others offer more comprehensive child care education services.
At Kiddie Academy, we do not consider ourselves a nursery school. That's because we provide your child with Life EssentialsSM, which offers early child education unlike that which most traditional nursery schools can provide.
At the center of our educational philosophy is an age-appropriate curriculum, based on the individual needs of your child. We accommodate your child’s ever-changing needs, which means your child is taught based on his or her current pace and potential, as opposed to an average of every other child in the classroom.
Kiddie Academy is a national organization with academies designed to meet the highest standards in care, education and safety. Life Essentials helps us achieve exactly that. Plus, as one of the country’s most respected child care organizations, you’ll benefit from the best practices and systems shared by academy owners and teachers throughout the United States.
To learn more about Kiddie Academy and how our education-based child care programs can help make your child more school-ready than nursery school, visit our Defining Quality Child Care page or our Choose Us for Child Care Services page.
