Fantastic staff, good communication. The longevity of their best teachers is outstanding, and the newest teachers are also amazing. There is a great culture here!

I do not think there will ever be enough words for this center and all of the teachers! Back in 2021, my 3 year old started here as his day care provider moved and we needed somewhere to go. I LUCKED out with my first choice- Cadence! From the moment he got there to the moment he graduated pre-school and went on to kindergarten, we have been so blessed. Of course when I found out I was pregnant in 2024, I reached out to them and asked if they have any infant spaces available come summer 2025. I was lucky enough to be told that they did and my 2nd son has been there for the past 9 months and thirving. No more kids for me but if I had any more...they would go here. I appreciate every single teacher I have had the pleasure of interacting with and could not recommend them more. :)

As both a parent and the Assistant Director, I’ve had the unique opportunity to experience Cadence Academy from two very important perspectives. My daughter, who is now 4 years old, has been part of this school since infancy, and I can confidently say it has been an incredible place for her to grow and learn. From the very beginning, the teachers have created a warm, nurturing, and safe environment where children truly feel cared for. Watching my daughter build relationships, gain confidence, and develop a love for learning has been so rewarding. The curriculum is thoughtful and engaging, and it supports each child’s development at every stage. As a staff member, I also see firsthand the dedication, passion, and teamwork that goes into making this center so special. The teachers genuinely care about each child and work hard to create meaningful learning experiences every day. Cadence Academy has been more than just a school for our family—it’s been a community. I’m grateful every day that my daughter is part of such a supportive and enriching environment.

The admin team makes everything easy and we love the all teachers in the infant room. My baby gets super happy when she sees Miss Sandra in the morning!

My daughter has attended Cadence Academy for over 2 years and we truly could not have asked for better childcare. The staff is absolutely incredible, as my daughter is quick to tell me about how nice each of her teachers are after pick up. I couldn’t be happier with the social, academic, and emotional growth that is fostered within Cadence Academy. In addition to phenomenal teachers, the facility itself is top notch, providing secured doors and an incredibly clean space for my child to feel welcomed into. I cannot over-emphasize the incredible support, effort, and care Cadence has provided for my daughter and her development.
