Guide to Preschools in Louisville

Kayfield Academy sets the standard for preschool and early childhood education programs in Kentucky. At KA, they strongly believe in the value of new and varied experiences, which is the foundation of knowledge for holistic and well-rounded child development.

Their programs are developed using core principles established by NAEYC starting at 6-weeks-old to Pre-K. They also offer after school care for Kindergartners once they graduate from the Pre-K program.

At KA, their focus is NURTURING little minds, PROVIDING a safe and stimulating environment, and EDUCATING through play, classroom instruction, and award-winning curriculum.

*They have partnered with the Kentucky Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) to make quality childcare more accessible to families in need.

Their Junior Kindergarten curriculum is designed to include age-appropriate academic content to be learned in a developmentally appropriate context. For four and five-year-olds, the context is play. Their play is their work! Through self-directed and guided play, they are able to connect what they already know and have experienced with the new ideas and skills they are learning daily.

Junior Kindergarten is also where their students begin to build their early literacy and math skills. Their emerging cognitive, social, emotional, and physical skills are stretched and strengthened as they work independently and side by side with their teachers. Thoughtfully planned centers are designed to entice engagement and invite active, open-ended exploration. Their goal is to challenge their students to explore, think, and inquire while learning to share and collaborate with their peers.
