A PLACE TO SHINE

With our progressive and holistic early childhood education philosophy, we understand that each child has unique needs and interests. We provide the environment and tools your child needs to thrive to the best of their abilities. 

When we expose children to different environments and various learning experiences, we allow them to explore their self-awareness and gain a sense of the world around them. Once they leave Empowering Kids Academy, they’re fully prepared for the next stage of their young lives.​

From language and literacy development to social skills and creative expression, the children at Empowering Kids Academy are constantly being exposed to new activities and environments in which to thrive. We build on the strengths and interests of each child to help build a solid foundation where they can develop their futures. More than anything, we LOVE our kids and provide them A PLACE TO SHINE!
