For the Family that Values Family
At Sprouts Early Learning Academy, we dedicate ourselves to nurturing family bonds through shared values and experiences. Our mission is to empower every family to thrive in unity, respect, and love, fostering a legacy of strength and integrity for generations to come.
At Sprouts Early Learning Academy, our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can explore the world with empathy and confidence. We believe children learn best through play, intentional interactions, exploration, and meaningful relationships with their teachers and peers. Through developmentally appropriate, hands-on learning and responsive teaching, we create spaces where children feel secure, valued, and inspired to grow in independence, curiosity, and resilience.
We are committed to strengthening children and families by building a supportive community rooted in connection and belonging. Sprouts emphasizes emotionally supportive spaces that incorporate mindfulness, calming routines, and sensory engagement through nature—helping children develop emotional regulation and social skills while learning to be present and grounded.
Children prepare healthy snacks using fresh produce from our garden. We embrace cultural food education, exploring diverse cuisines and fostering appreciation for diversity.

"This is a fabulous school. I have both of my children attending at the same time and they LOVE going to school at Sprouts. The teachers are dedicated, the facility is clean, and it is just SO obvious that the administration and teachers put a great deal of energy into making this a wonderful place for our children to learn and grow.

"Just recently moved to the area and my lo got a spot at Sprouts Early Learning Academy. As a parent, choosing the right childcare center is a huge decision, and I'm incredibly grateful to have found them. From the very first visit, the staff were warm, welcoming, and professional. My child instantly felt at ease, which gave me a lot of confidence in their ability to provide a safe and nurturing environment. Cannot recommend them enough!"
"My two children have been going to Sprouts Early Learning Academy since August 2023. Every teacher there that I have encountered has been so helpful in my children's learning experience and helping them grow! I'm grateful for the strong communication the teachers have with me as well as McKenzie O'Conner and Jeannie Aiken. Also, with the Brightschool app I'm able to see my children's activities throughout the day which is also a great way of communication. My children are always happy and look forward to going to school which tells me how well they are taken care of and how much the staff care about the well-being of the kids. 5 STARS!"
