Partnering With Families To Help Children Thrive

An Incredible Faith-Based Curriculum Builds Their Kindergarten Readiness

Our innovative approach to kindergarten readiness integrates faith- and play-based learning through hands-on activities and STEAM programs. Teachers prepare your little one for school using faith-based lesson plans tailored to your student’s milestones, goals, and interests, drawing from Abeka (3+) and 1,2,3 Jesus Loves Me (Infants and Twos) curricula.

Classroom Learning Centers Promote Early Independence

Your child uses classroom learning centers to build independence and problem-solving skills. They move to the rhythm of music, dive into hands-on explorations with manipulatives, and unleash creativity through arts and crafts. This holistic approach encourages curiosity, sharpens critical thinking, and ignites a passion for lifelong learning.

Daily Opportunities For Fun Outdoor Play & Physical Activity

With engaging play structures and expansive playgrounds, our turfed outdoor wonderlands offer age-separated areas for every little explorer. Shoot hoops on our basketball court, play games to strengthen muscles and coordination, or dive into imaginative play – the fun never ends when they’re outdoors with friends.

My daughter has attended this daycare for 7 months now. This has by far been the best daycare she has ever attended. The staff is consistent and provides constant updates while she is their care. Jennifer Chanley-Salies, Lashandria Peek, and Hayle Kelley have made this a great experience for me and my child. They are very attentive to the child and parents needs. The facility is clean and well taken care of. There is always something fun happening at this daycare. They incorporate many interactive activities for the kids and I feel my child has learned and gained so many skills while attending here.

We absolutely love FA in Perry. I have two kiddos that have attended FA. We've had nothing but great teachers on all levels that take care of the kids and as a parent, it's comforting to know that they are loving on my children. It's always a secured building and anytime during the day that I want to call and check on my kids, I can call and talk directly to the teacher to make sure things are going well if need be. I visited several daycares and always came back to FA, I wouldn't trust anyone else around town with my kids. FA is by far the best in town!

My great granddaughter has been attending Foundation for approximately 3 months. We knew that she would experience separation anxiety. The staff was very understanding and worked with her and found her a class that was right for her. She no longer cries when we drop her off and goes straight in and begins playing. She has done so well that she was recently moved up and continues to do well. Thank you for making this a wonderful experience!

Baylee loves her daycare teachers Kristine Rusch, who is amazing at giving her the cutest piggy tails and cleaning her poop-splosions and her former Alycia Gomes and April Long! She goes in almost every day with a huge smile because she loves all these sweet ladies! I feel so at ease trusting them all with my daughters!

Annette is one of the best teachers at this place! I trust her 100% with my kids! She cares and loves them as if they were her own. She has a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone. She always makes the days worth it for the babies she has taken care of and continues to do so. Every baby comes running to her knowing she will protect them! Not only does she care about the child but also the parents and always does what is best for them!

My son is absolutely in love with this daycare, which to me is the clearest sign they are doing it right. He even asks to go to school on the weekend 😂 Staff does a great job communicating daily activities, food, and any little scratch or stumble the kids have in the day through the portal. Not to mention sending multiple photos throughout the day which helps me see how well he’s doing! All staff is polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. We are so happy with our decision and our son’s experience here 💜

Having an actual Christian daycare in the area is a blessing. The staff genuinely care about the children. I love how the administrators are constantly in and out of the classroom. I can’t say enough about the teachers and front office staff. They always have smiles on their faces and greet the kids with such love. Thank you, Foundation, for all you do for our babies.

My great-grandson attends Foundation Academy, and I’m so grateful to have a Christian school in our area. The administration and teachers go above and beyond what other daycares do. They not only teach Christian values, but they also show them daily in how they treat the children and us as parents. Thank you, Foundation.

My child has been attending Foundation Academy for nearly half a year, and we are happy. My son loves the teachers, and his vocabulary has expanded tremendously. The ladies at the front are always helpful and accommodating. I love it when the teachers use the app to communicate with us and let us know what our child is up to. Take a tour; you won't be disappointed. 🙂
