I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Sunshine Learning Academy, in my opinion, is absolutely incredible in EVERY way. Accepting children from infant to Pre-K age, my daughter has attended this center for the last 4 yrs ending her time here with a wonderful Pre-K graduation celebration. I already plan to enroll her in their summer program designed for school aged children at their second facility close by!

My daughter has learned soo much over the last 4 years. She has absolutely LOVED all of her teachers as well which makes her experience there that much more rewarding. At the young age of 3 not long after beginning her journey at this location and her initial journey at an actual childcare facility in general she was having a blast and learning to LOVE school and increasing her levels of education along with her social skills. She quickly came out of her shell making friends and growing into a fun and personable young girl. She was quickly counting to 10 in both English AND Spanish, singing the alphabet and learning songs and lessons that amazed me for such a young girl. Everyday there were set plans and lessons along with daily classroom updates for the parents. We were involved in her educational experience from day one.

The center runs class trips and hosts school picture opportunities as well as parent teacher conferences. I truly couldn't be happier with my decision to choose this center. She is now completing her final summer before heading off to Kindergarten and it is such a great feeling as a parent to know that she is socially and educationally prepared for the new journey she is about to have. She received a spot at a top charter school and I was sooo proud to learn her admission exam results stated that our daughter excelled in every area they tested on and she met all of the requirements for not only the things she is expected to know by the start of the new school year but the things that they expect them to know by the middle of their kindergarten year! The teachers are so nice and inform you of EVERYTHING. You know when you drop your child off here that they are in great hands and well taken care of at all times. Their communication with the parents is outstanding and the activities and events that they do to include the parents and families is equally? outstanding. If your child misses mommy and daddy no need to worry, there is at least 3-4 pictures in his/her classroom of their family and pets from the very beginning.

Sunshine Learning Academy exceeded my expectations after the first month of attendance and still continues to do so each week as my daughter still comes home every day telling me all about the new things she has learned that day. I am truly going to miss this place and the amazing and caring staff that employees it. The teachers here are incredibly inspirational and have taught my daughter educational skills as well as life skills she can carry with her throughout her future. The teachers there aren't just there for a paycheck you can definitely tell that they are there because of their love for our young children and their passion to want to give them a great education and prepare them for their next educational journey. We will definitely be back to visit, my daughter is already planning her future visits even though she is still attending the center part time until she is ready to begin Kindergarten this September. The smart, personable and respectful young girl my daughter has grown to be has A LOT to do with her educational journey at Sunshine Learning Academy over the last 4 years. She has broken out of her shell and comfort zone and has made friends and built relationships and memories with both children and adults that will definitely last a lifetime.

If you live or work in the Mayfair/Northeast Philadelphia area and are looking for child care or after school care then I HIGHLY recommend that you set up a tour of Sunshine Learning Academy as soon as possible. Their classes do fill up quickly (the best schools always do) but I am confident that any parent will be extremely happy with their child's experience here.
