The Importance of Educational Childcare

Today, many households are two-income homes, with both parents working to provide the best for their family. This means finding a childcare situation for your children is an important decision you have to make.

There are a variety of childcare opportunities to choose from in Gainesville, VA and the surrounding areas. However, at Haymarket Children’s Academy, we understand the importance of educational childcare. We believe each day presents educational opportunities for children no matter their age.

Our educational programs provide many benefits for any child as they help them to learn and grow. The children entrusted to our care are also given opportunities to develop crucial social skills by working with other kids their own age.

Childcare Programs Offered at HCA

At Haymarket Children’s Academy, we offer a variety of childcare programs for children of all ages, from birth through school-age:

  • Nursery: Whenever you feel your baby is ready for daycare, our nursery program is a caring environment designed to help your child begin learning and exploring the world around them.
  • Preschool: After your child graduates from the nursery program, preschool is a great introduction to a more structured classroom environment while still integrating tons of fun and playtime.
  • Pre-k: Our pre-k program is designed to transition children out of preschool and prepare them for the more in-depth concepts that will be taught in kindergarten through the use of play-based learning.
  • Private Kindergarten: The first year of elementary school is the foundation upon which all future learning is based. HCA provides a small classroom setting for our kindergartners to get personalized instruction.
  • Before and After School: This program provides a safe and caring environment where your school-age children can continue their educational opportunities and engage in fun activities both before and after school.
  • Summer Camp: Every summer for 10 weeks, school-age children come to HCA for Camp Blue Ridge. This program includes exciting field trips, fun excursions to the water park and on-campus activities that are educational, engaging and fun.
