Individualized Learning
Equals Growth
At Early Spark Academy, children thrive through hands-on exploration, art, nature, and problem-solving. Our Reggio-inspired approach, small class sizes, and caring teachers provide personalized learning that honors each child’s multiple intelligences and unique learning style, building confidence, independence, and joy.
Small Class Sizes,
Big Possibilities
The small groups help children build secure relationships, stay engaged, and receive personalized guidance that supports growth and development. With caring teachers and hands-on, Reggio-inspired learning, children develop social, emotional, and academic skills that prepare them to thrive in every next step.
At Early Spark Academy, we understand the importance of a daily rhythm that nurtures the whole child—emotionally, socially, cognitively, and physically. Our rhythm provides a natural flow to the day, balancing structure with room for creativity, exploration, and discovery.
Guided by the Reggio Emilia philosophy and multiple intelligences approach, children learn through the ‘three teachers’—their family, their environment, and their teachers—building confidence and skills that empower them for learning throughout life. With predictable rhythms, intentional play, and caring guidance, children bloom from the inside out and thrive in our environment.
Partnerships that Go Beyond Drop-Off
We know that families are a child’s first and most important teachers. We provide constant communication, photos, and updates throughout your child’s day. Families are also invited to volunteer and join our family events. Together, we will create a supportive environment where children reach their full potential.
Outdoor Play is Treasured
Every child enjoys a minimum of one hour outdoors each day. Our vibrant, natural playground is filled with open-ended materials that we rotate to match children’s evolving interests, encouraging creativity, imagination, and problem-solving. This outdoor play extends indoor learning, allowing children to dig, build, climb, and explore while transforming and repurposing materials in new ways.
Tasty Breakfast and Snacks Included
We provide a nutritious breakfast and afternoon snacks, offering a variety of healthy options to explore new flavors in a fun, social setting. Sometimes, we even prepare our own snacks! Children take an active role by serving themselves and helping clean up, building independence and responsibility while enjoying meals together. Families are asked to pack a lunch each day so mealtime feels familiar and comforting.

Your child’s safety is our priority. Our doors stay locked at all times, and a team member greets every visitor. In addition to our bright windows, our outdoor cameras give us a clear view of who is approaching the center. Inside, security cameras and CPR- and First Aid–trained team members provide an added layer of care. With these safeguards in place, you can feel at ease knowing your child is safe each day.
