"Hugged First, Then Taught"
We strive to provide a clean, safe, and educational environment for young children and their families. Within our school, children develop skills that promote physical, emotional, social, and intellectual growth.
We believe in being supportive of our parents, and we welcome their positive involvement and presence at our school at all times. We further believe that within our environment, children can thrive and have the opportunity to blossom into responsible, considerate, and contributing members of our society.

WELCOME TO OUR PRIVATE SCHOOL
Children take in more information during their first six years than they do the remainder of their lives. Kids R Kids - The Academy at Blakeney wants to be part of that development. We offer programs for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and older children. Our Pre-K and T-K programs prepare those children who are about to enter Kindergarten. We also offer a private Kindergarten for those who prefer a smaller and more controlled learning environment for their Kindergartner. There are even afterschool and summer camp programs for children in Kindergarten through sixth grade. Click the Curriculum button above to learn more about these programs.
We believe that learning should be a happy and rewarding experience. Our learning process is designed with your child's physical, emotional, social and intellectual needs in mind. We have arranged our classrooms to give each child the opportunity to explore language arts, science, math, reading and writing. In addition, our environment provides the tools to develop their social and physical skills, all while nurturing their emotional growth.
Our goals are focused on providing your child with the highest quality care in the best possible learning environment. When you first enter the doors of our school, it is obvious that great care has been taken to create a loving and safe "home away from home." Our 2,500 square foot activity room gives our after-school students an area to relax or to do homework. We have nearly an acre of outside play area which is divided into six age-appropriate playgrounds, with direct access from the classrooms to each respective playground. Tempered glass walls allow easy viewing between classrooms, and a computerized monitoring system allows parents to watch their children over a secure Internet connection from work, home, or anywhere they please. In addition, parents must use their personal access code to enter the building and to check their children in and out for the day. All these features are important, but it is the true commitment from the director, teachers, staff and owners that makes our school exceptional.
Kids R Kids - The Academy at Blakeney is owned and operated by Jason Szempruch, who is always available to address any questions you may have. With over 150 schools in twelve states, and a history of more than forty years in child care and early educational development, Kids 'R' Kids is the right choice for you and for your child's future.
