Meet Our Dedicated Team
We only employ qualified, loving, and caring individuals with a passion for children and their education. All of our team members have received their early childhood credentials. With this, they are taught the basics of how to teach children through creativity, science, communication, art, and so forth. Our staff strives to teach your children by using DAP (developmentally appropriate practice). We want each parent to feel comfortable leaving their child at our center and in our care. Thank you for choosing Creative Kidz Academy. We look forward to working with both you and your child.
Admission Requirements and Enrollment Process
On or before your child's first day, the following forms are required to begin at Creative Kidz Academy. A signed and completed application and feeding schedule (if applicable), a medical exam (signed by a physician), a current shot record (signed and dated), a discipline and behavior management form, and signed documentation of receipt of a summary of child care laws. After all paperwork is completed and signed by an administrator, the date of enrollment will be set.
After the enrollment process is completed, Creative Kidz Academy requires at least one hour of observation in the classroom by the parent to complete the enrollment process. This observation is required to ensure that both the parent and child are comfortable with the facility. This time period is also used to explain the class structure.

Creative Kids Academy Tuition Rates
Below are the tuition rates beginning January 1, 2024. One hundred percent of the increase will go towards staff salaries. Every staff member received a substantial raise last year. Over ninety percent of our staff have received their lead teacher status or degree and received a salary increase on top of their initial raise. This increase still keeps CKA below the current market rate. If you are on a DSS voucher, nothing will change with your monthly copayment. If you are receiving tuition assistance from a community college or university, please contact your counselor with the new rates. We appreciate everyone's ongoing support.
