The Ivy Academy & Early Learning

KinderCare creates an environment where children are safe, nurtured, loved and encouraged to learn.
Our education department uses current research to create an exclusive, proven curriculum for our teachers so you know that your child is getting the advantage of a large network of educational resources and the best care available.
KinderCare's exclusive educational programs provide unlimited opportunities for the development of the whole child.
There's a unique curriculum for every age level, centered around developmentally appropriate and fun activities that help children develop physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.
In the classroom and on the playground, age-appropriate concepts are integrated into all aspects of play.
Sometimes it's through a game. Another time it's through a song.
Other times it's through exploration in our Discovery Areas. By providing children with activities that match their developmental needs and abilities, learning occurs easily and naturally.
