I established Andover Children's Academy in 1992 to provide high-quality child care services to families, as well as a superior education and training for the students. The focus of every activity at our center is on quality care. Our families will experience a level of personal attention that treats them as valued and invited members, not only meeting but exceeding their expectations.
ACA is committed to providing an educational environment that recognizes cultural and national diversity and to developing and maintaining programs, services, and practices that promote respect for people of all backgrounds. ACA offers care for children ages 1 month to 5 years old, as well as a private, one of a kind kindergarten program for children from five to seven years old.

About Us
Report
When I asked both the parents and the teachers, "What makes ACA different and special?" the first sentiment out of everybody's mouth was, "It is a family, not just a day care!" You really, truly take care of each other. Helping your elderly aunt to do shopping; driving your sick cousin to a doctor's appointment; bringing food to your mother's second cousin in a nursing home; having a big happy and crazy Thanksgiving party.
Programs
Report
ACA prides itself on well-rounded, multi-faceted curricula that includes learning through books, music, art projects, nature, science, social studies, movement, and cooking. Dramatic play, blocks, puppets, and props are also used to enhance engagement and understanding. We focus on cognitive development, creative language, math concepts, self-help skills, physical development, self-esteem building, small motor skills, and discipline.
Infants
Report
The main focus of our Infant Group is helping each child reach his or her age appropriate developmental milestones. Our educators nurture gross motor skills such as sitting, crawling, standing, and walking, as well as fine motor skills including holding a bottle, using a spoon to pick food up off a tray, and turning pages in a book.
Preschool
Report
As social skills develop rapidly in this age group, our Preschool program teaches the importance of good manners, sharing with others, and conflict resolution (I want your toy, so I will give you mine). Children participate in structured, teacher-led activities such as circle time that are designed to foster listening and comprehension.
Pre-Kindergarten
Report
As their cognitive skills continue to develop, the foundations of their self-esteem, perception of the world, and moral outlook are established as well. During this year, the children learn the basics of phonics, counting, and story writing, and investigate the world around them through creative play.
