Micah Children’s Academy, located on a beautiful and expansive property, serves children ages six weeks through Pre‑K in a Jewish values‑based, Reggio Emilia‑inspired environment. Our vision is to provide age‑appropriate, play‑based learning that integrates the best of early childhood education theories and research‑based practices. We focus on nurturing the whole child, fostering growth in all developmental domains through creative, problem‑solving, and discovery‑based activities.

While our program is rooted in Jewish values, we warmly embrace and celebrate students from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and interfaith families. Each day is enriched with opportunities for children to construct their own knowledge through art, sensory experiences, music, movement, a love and awe of nature, math, and science, creating a rich and inclusive learning environment.
