About Us

A neighborhood academy built on tender, loving care.

Keziah's Early Learning Academy has been a steady, loving presence for Rosedale families since 1993. What began as one woman's promise to care for children like her own has grown into a full early-learning program — without ever losing that personal touch.

We partner with parents every step of the way, building a daily rhythm of play, learning, rest, and encouragement that helps children feel secure, curious, and ready for whatever comes next — including their first day of grade school.

Our days are built on the High/Scope curriculum — an accredited, play-based approach where children learn through hands-on exploration, caring adults, and child-led discovery. It's how everyday play becomes real independence and school readiness.

Nurturing, not just supervised

Low ratios and consistent caregivers your child grows to trust.

Play-based learning

Hands-on activities that build reading, math & motor skills.

True parent partnership

Daily updates and open communication, always.

Hours that fit your day

Open 7:00am–5:30pm, Monday through Friday.
