We help every child feel special, valued and successful. We are big enough to provide all of the resources necessary for an outstanding education, but small enough to give each child and parent individual attention. Our academy was established by two school teachers 1981. They recognized the growing need for childcare as more parents entered the workforce. They used their teaching experience to organize a warm, loving place for children to learn & make new friends.

Exceptional Staff

Searching for a "good" daycare can be very stressful and from my personal experience, the quality of teachers (staff members) is always at the top of my list.

DCA not only has the finest staff who literally cares for each child but also has an excellent chief of staff who is endlessly involved with each class!!!!

My daughter attended DCA until her Kindergarden year and my son is currently attending DCA. I'm always reassured when I pick them up and hear them cry NOT wanting to come home just yet!!! This is a good thing.

I respect each and every staff member of DCA as I watch them teach from the heart and really attend to each child and their individual needs.

Among the numerous childcare centers around this area, I highly recommend DCA to ALL parents who have young children.

My son has attended Discovery ...

My son has attended Discovery Corner for over two years and I have not had any problems with the director/teacher(s). The director has been outstanding. She is well rounded a very versatile, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. My son is now in the kindergarten class and his teacher, Ms. Richelle is too a fabulous teacher. I'm kept informed of my son's progess on a daily/weekly basis.



I am proud of Discovery Corner and would recommend them to anyone interested.

Educational Excellence!

Our daughter started at 2 1/2 yrs old. Her vocabulary skills are above average and loves to learn new things daily. Every instructor knows every childs name. The interaction, education and attention that the children receive is excellent and loving. We are so very lucky to find such a fabulous place for our daughter to GROW. We interviewed many schools prior to making our decision. We want our daughter to explore her own individuality, which she is able to do at Discovery Corner Academy.

Highly recommended!

I am the parent of two boys, 5 and 3. My 5 year old started at DCA when he was 2 and he is now in finishing Kindergarten. My 3 year old also started at DCA when he was 2 and he is now finishing "pre-pre" kindergarten. My experience with DCA as a parent has been outstanding! I could not have hoped for a better place to start my children’s education. The staff at DCA are excellent and have created a nurturing environment which is reflected in my children’s positive socials skills and interest in art, music and academics.

Personal and Loving Care

I strongly recommend Discovery Corner to all my friends who are looking for childcare. They have an exceptional staff that provides a loving environment and attention that is truly personal, which has been very positive for my children. My children are 5 and 3 years old, and both of them look forward to school everyday.



Discovery Corner has a great academic curriculum. My 5 year old has a strong foundation before moving into kindergarten later this year. He is already reading short stories with simple sentences.



Flexible schedule is a plus and they are open year round.

Disccovry Corner is wonderful!

I enrolled my son at Discovery Corner because I was referred by a friend. Turns out was a wonderful choice. My son is so happy and learning so much and he is in the pre-k program. He is doing math and counts to 100. He is writing and does worksheets constantly. The feedback you get from the teachers and the director is great. They have worked with my son on a few behavior issues and he is learning how to make good choices. He gets plenty of hugs and smiles from the teachers and director. You can tell they truely enjoy the kids and their work. I cannot say enough good things. He will be staying for their Kindergarden Program as that teacher is pretty great too and the class size is small. He will get individual attention and guidance, should he need it. My son loves his school and so do I.
