Ivy Hill Academy

We are forever so thankful for this school family. Truly top tier education and care. It’s obvious every teacher, in each classroom, genuinely loves each child from the bottom of their heart. Very low turnover of the 10 years my 4 children attended. The Conscious Discipline program is fully implemented and my children were not just educated but respected and are very socially mature for their age. Thank you, Ivy Hill, for everything you’ve given to our family.

Ivy Hill Academy has played the most important role in my child's as well as my own life. Conscious Discipline is amazing when fully implemented. This school has shaped my son into an incredibly bright- but also accepting, kind, and socially/emotionally confident child.

We are very grateful for Ivy Hill, In particular the teachers that our daughters have had. The level of comfortability our daughter has with Mrs Maria is priceless. Mrs Maria has left a huge lifetime impact on our oldest as she gets ready to age out of IHA. The smaller teacher-student ratio, the conscious discipline..the fact that every staff member in the building knows our daughters names. In general-We have had a very positive experience at Ivy Hill and would recommend.

Ivy Hill Academy has been amazing for our son. He was just a little behind with his speech, but since going to Ivy Hill he’s had a true word explosion. The way they go about teaching conscious discipline to not only the kids, but in a respectful and professional way to the parents is amazing and incredibly helpful. Ms. Maria and Ms. Emily are so patient, caring and loving to our little man. An example of this is Ms. Maria taking the extra time at drop off to teach me “ I love you rituals” to practice at home with my son at drop off and Ms. Emily stepping in and giving Jackson extra attention on family days when my husband and I aren’t able to attend due to work. The communication is amazing. Overall, I can’t recommend this daycare enough. They really genuinely care about these kids.
