Child care learning company opens in Asheville

Press release from Kiddie Academy:

Asheville, NC – Kiddie Academy, a nationally recognized provider of comprehensive education-based child care programs, has just opened its newest location in Asheville. For more than 30 years the company has been successful with combining learning with child care, said Vladimira Lorenz, owner of Kiddie Academy of Asheville, located at 22 Walden Ridge Drive.

“Our well-trained, attentive staff assists children in developing the confidence and self-esteem necessary to meet the challenges of tomorrow. Our philosophy at Kiddie Academy is that care and learning go hand in hand,” Mrs. Lorenz said. “We also believe that it’s extremely important to foster bonds between not only our educators and children, but also between educators and parents, academies and the local community.”

According to the National Childcare Accreditation Council, children’s learning and development is enhanced when they make choices and guide their own experiences through their individual interests, personalities and skills. Children’s learning occurs through planned and spontaneous experiences, during their participation in daily routines and through their experience of positive modeling by adults and peers.

Mrs. Lorenz says that’s exactly Kiddie Academy’s focus. “The assortment of activities we have available for the children is endless, which encourages them to learn, play and explore. When children attend Kiddie Academy of Asheville, they will acquire the skills and strength of character that will foster their success.”

Kiddie Academy, founded in 1981, began with the idea to combine learning with child care, and a commitment to be a leader in the industry. Kiddie Academy developed a comprehensive education-based child care program for its academies, which are structured to respond to the increasing demand for child care. The Asheville location utilizes the Kiddie Academy Life Essentials®curriculum created to promote each child’s intellectual, social, physical and emotional growth. According to Mrs. Lorenz, the programs emphasize continuous, open communication between teachers and parents concerning each child’s development.

“We’re looking forward to providing child care options to the local families and making an impact in our children’s lives, as well as within the community. We invite Asheville area families to stop in for a tour of the academy or to receive more information on our services,” Mrs. Lorenz said.
