Sue established our early learning academy in 1993 with five students and grew to a thriving center serving 65 families. After selling her center in 2010, she enjoyed teaching kindergarten for one year, prior to spending three years as a director in a well-respected chain child care center. She is truly a committed educator for whom early childhood development is a passion.
Teaching social skills, a sense of community and good manners to children under the age of 5 are some of the most important responsibilities of an early childhood educator. Make sure you entrust your child's care to a complete facility that produces well-prepared students for the next stages of their education.
Our early childhood education center utilizes Creative Curriculum from infant care through preschool. During the day, the teachers engage in one-on-one care, singing, reading, tummy time, art, and lots of love for your little one! When you tour our daycare center, we're sure you'll find that it meets and exceeds all of your needs as a parent.
Our toddlers' very busy day activities include art, reading, music, second language, sign language, and outdoor play. Designed with the curious child in mind, the toddler daycare at our early education center comprises monthly themes reinforced with books, puppets, songs, free-form art projects, and other fun activities to nurture their creativity.
This two-year-olds' preschool program offers plenty of hands-on activities where children learn through play. It's so much more than daycare, because it intentionally encourages problem-solving, language development, creativity, and self-esteem. We also concentrate on potty training and self-help skills with older toddlers, something that helps us here and you at home!

My son absolutely loves his teachers 💙. He is happy to go to school every day and he's thriving there. The staff is happy to answer any questions or concerns I've had, and respond quickly. Recently, they started doing yoga with Mrs. Sue. My son comes home and shows us the poses he worked on that day. Breakfast, lunch, and snack is provided. As a working parent it takes one less stress out of my day!

We have been at this daycare for a few years now after leaving Lightbridge. We had one child at the time but now we have a four year old and a two year old there. We love the daycare as well as both our boys. Ms Sue and all the teachers treat you like family and pay attention to your child’s needs. We can’t express the gratitude we have for everyone there. They keep the place very clean as well. Highly recommended.

I just wanted to express my gratitude towards all of the teachers at A2Z. As you know, Ms Sue, we had a horrible experience at a daycare prior to coming to your facility. To see our son excited to come to “school” every morning- actually jumping off the couch to get in the car, to smiling so big as we “talk” in the car on the way in about his school day, to actually walking into the school on his own with Ms Kelly (not even looking back), like a big boy! The most important part I’ve noticed is when I pick our son up, he is ALWAYS in a great mood- smiling and just so happy- which I never

A-2-Z has been an absolutely wonderful school for our family! Our son has been attending for almost a year now and the progress he has made socially and emotionally has been amazing - all while having fun! The teachers are attentive, caring and nurturing. The personal relationship the staff forms with families has played a big role in our son thriving. Communication is easy and direct and I never have to worry when he is in their care. The facility is clean, innovative (STEM room!), has imaginative classrooms, a well organized playground, top of the line security and utilizes technology such as

I love A2Z , my son has been coming here since he was 19 months old and he absolutely loves it. Everyday he talks about all the wonderful stories and activities he participates in. Wednesday’s are his favorite because of MR Zack (music teacher) The staff are awesome, the classrooms are always clean... he has a blast in the huge playground and enjoys all the delicious nutritious healthy meals and snacks Ms Sue and her staff provide and he always has a project on hand. I would definitely recommend this school to everyone. They have an app that allows parent teacher communication on a daily basis

My daughter started at A-2-Z Academy about 6 months ago. We had her enrolled in Apple Montessori and were unhappy on many levels. When she started at A-2-Z we saw an instant change in her and in our own piece of mind. She is now receiving the attention provided in smaller classrooms with caring, engaged and enthusiastic teachers. Sue Jennings, the Owner and Director is unbelievable. She is loved by her teachers, her kids and the parents for good reason. She is a wonderful involved leader doing everything from teaching children manners and learning skills to making sure the center is spotless and

Mrs. Sue and her teachers are amazing. My son has been at her facility sense he was 9 months old. She knows every student and the parents of those students. I always have complete confidence that my son is in great care when I drop him off. I highly recommend her facility and teachers. Everyone know my son and greats him openly the minute he walks in and says bye to him as we leave. Love this facility, its owner, and her teachers.

I toured quite a few local centers when looking for care for my then 18 month old son Nicolas in November of 2017. A2Z was the first one where when I walked in and met with the owner, Ms. Sue, I knew I would be placing my baby in good hands! My husband and I have been so impressed with the level of attention and care he has received....he loves this place! The routine updates and photos from teachers throughout the day, age appropriate educational/emotional development, and the fun he has each day confirm our beliefs!! Our three month old daughter will be attending in a couple of weeks, and we
