About Us

With a commitment to young children and the drive to guide the next generation of learners, owners Tracey, Charity, and Leonard brought 20 years of early educational experience to launch Teaching Children Learning Academy (TCLA) in 2021.

Having grown up in The Cathedral of Love Christian Academy (COLCA) in Willingboro, New Jersey, the trio benefited from academic excellence in a culture of love and spiritual values. They’ve combined the principles and teachings passed down to them with innovative ideas to accelerate your child’s early development and help them solidify an unbreakable cognitive, social, physical, and academic foundation.

The Teaching Children Learning Academy views children as not just children but as younger members of society, ready to express themselves through the use of their divine gifts and attributes. It is our pleasure to help expose them to the worlds around them and help develop their drive to reach their highest potential as members of their community.

We Believe That “Every Child Is A Genius”

And we tirelessly strive to create an environment where your little one will develop:

Our mission is to guide the healthy growth and development of your child and nurture the next generation of bright, intelligent, well-rounded children.

Your Child’s Education, Shaped By Our Core Values

RESPECT

We promote parent involvement and interaction with children to ensure your child receives the care, love, and attention they deserve.

RESPONSIBILITY

We uphold classrooms where every child can begin learning through exploration, achieve excellence, and continually nourish their minds.

COMMUNITY

We strive to provide encouraging spaces where your child develops strong values, social connections, and a love for their community.

SELF-DISCOVERY

Your child learns best in a rich, loving environment that considers their total development, individual needs, and unique differences.

State-Of-The Art Learning Materials For A Headstart

Your child’s classrooms include top-tier interactive learning materials and equipment, including iPads and computers, to help them get the most out of their daily learning so they launch into kindergarten, ready to shine.

A Blended & Research-Backed Curriculum For Deep Learning

Teachers intertwine activities from the research-backed Creative Curriculum® and a child-led Montessori-inspired approach to deliver the deep learning your child needs to build the cognitive, practical, and school skills to succeed in their next steps.

A Delicious, Diverse, & State-Approved Food Program To Nourish Your Child

At Teaching Children Learning Academy our Food Program is an extension of our love and care for your little ones. Balancing nutrition with variety we aim to not only nourish but to inspire and introduce the children to different tastes and food options. Our chef handcrafts the menu weekly with general dietary and allergenic needs in mind, producing a balanced cuisine rich in taste, texture, and food groups.

For lunch, chicken-alfredo over pasta, with mixed vegetables, orange slices, and milk is just one example of our colorful plates. While snack remains healthy and fun with options like fruit cups & apple sauce, popcorn, vegan-based sweets, and multigrain crackers. We understand that what comes out within a child’s development is based on what goes into a child’s development and for us food is very much a part of that process.

Our facility is pork and nut FREE, focusing on alternative approaches to fan favorites like spaghetti and “chicken” meatballs, or Turkey frank’s n beans. While we do our best to serve the needs of a diverse group of children we understand if parents have special dietary needs, in which case we encourage them to provide their child with their specific lunch. We’ve curated our program in alignment with the New Jersey Food Program for Schools and Families, making sure that taste meets nutritional value in every balanced meal.

Parent Partnerships Are Our Top Priority

No one wants to leave their child with a stranger and we work with you to make sure you feel safe and confident about your child’s care. Your child thrives when you’re part of their learning journey, and we have lots of ways to get you involved, including
