About Us
Kids Advancing Academy is a childcare center located in Lakewood, Ohio. We are open Monday- Friday
6:30 a.m.-6:00 p.m. We serve children 6 weeks- 11 years of age. In addition to our Infant and Toddler Programs, we offer a Preschool and Pre - K Program, Before and After Care, and a Summer Camp Program. We are pleased to serve as extended family members and believe that a child's time away from home should be a positive experience.
Our center's motto is "Where Learning and Fun Are One!" Children who are enrolled at our school have many opportunities to engage in fun activities such as, field trips, classroom parties, and family events!! In addition, children are given the opportunity to play on our playground or in our gym twice a day. Children also participate in activities that will enhance their social, emotional, cognitive, physical, and language development. Here at Kids Advancing Academy we incorporate biblical principles into the curriculum in order to promote character building and for the development of your child's values.
The teachers assess the children several times a year using the Creative Curriculum Assessment and the Ages and Stages Questionnaire. This allows the teachers to work with the families in order to develop a plan to help each child meet their full potential.

Testimonials
" I searched many local daycares in my area for my two little ones. Even the well known ones with good reviews were a huge disappointment to me. As soon as I walked in the doors I knew this was the school for my kids. Its the cleanest among all the schools I've seen. The classrooms are bright, colorful and not overcrowded . They get the one on one attention they deserve. They come home singing new songs all the time, and do art work everyday. They are learning and having fun at the same time. My children are better people for having gone to this school and I am completely at ease when they are there. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone."

" Our son is almost 2 years old and absolutely loves Kids Advancing Academy! He is excited to go to school in the morning and is always happy when I pick him up in the afternoon. We have had our son in other daycares and this is the best by far!
