Joni’s Child Care & Preschool is now Cadence Academy Preschool!

Our directors, teachers, and staff share an unwavering commitment to provide the highest standards of child care and learning in safe, secure facilities. Our staff consists of skilled, educated professionals who are entirely dedicated to the interests of our children and families. Center management is required to undergo a rigorous training process, and like all staff, required to maintain professional certifications and educational credits. Safe, clean, secure facilities complete the picture, providing the ideal environment for children to thrive.

Our children enjoy a large multi-media room with individual computers and large-screen, interactive monitor for group activities and instruction. Our Farmington center also has a bright, fun indoor play area for preschoolers. Extracurricular activities include swimming lessons, dance, martial arts, soccer and piano.

Our Programs

NAEYC Accreditation

The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) has set 10 standards for early childhood programs to help families looking for a child care center or preschool. These standards define what NAEYC believes all programs should provide. Maintaining accreditation requires our preschool to meet or exceed criteria in 10 standards including Curriculum, Teaching, Health, Staff Competencies, Families, Physical Environment, and Community Relationships.

Collaborating with Our Families

At Cadence Academy Preschool we know that raising children is unique in every family. We work hard to understand the needs, preferences, and goals of each family. Whether it is the timing of potty training or the daily separation process, we work with families to determine the best approach to each situation. We believe that you need to make decisions based upon the needs of your family and we seek to engage parents at every step.

Our Preschool’s Location

Cadence Academy Preschool, Farmington is located a mile west of I-84 in northwest Farmington, Connecticut. We’re just off Route 4/Farmington Ave at 3 Eastview Dr, Farmington, CT 06032. We’re next door to Farmington Farms Tennis & Athletic Club and across the street from Dunning Lake.

Need Before or After School Care for your elementary student? We provide transportation to and from Avon District schools, Farmington District schools, and Union School in Unionville.

Accreditations

NAEYC Accreditation

Every child deserves access to high-quality early learning experiences. NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) has set 10 standards for early childhood programs that can help families make the right choice when they are looking for a child care center, preschool, or kindergarten. The standards and criteria are also the foundation of the NAEYC Accreditation system for early childhood programs. To earn NAEYC Accreditation, schools must go through an extensive self-study and quality-improvement process, followed by an on-site visit by NAEYC Assessors to verify and ensure that the program meets each of the ten program standards, and hundreds of corresponding individual criteria. NAEYC-accredited programs are always prepared for unannounced quality-assurance visits during their accreditation term, which lasts for five years. In the 30 years since NAEYC Accreditation was established, it has become a widely recognized sign of high-quality early childhood education. More than 7,000 programs are currently accredited by NAEYC—less than 10 percent of all child care centers, preschools, and kindergartens nationally achieve this recognition.

My son has been at Cadence Academy (formally Joni’s) for almost 3 years and we couldn’t be more grateful for their care and compassion. Despite COVID and staff turnover we’ve remained loyal to Ms. Fauzia, the Assistant Director, and the most patient and kind leader we know. This year we have been lucky enough to have Ms. Allison as Director who is organized, efficient and transparent. We look forward to seeing what this pair has in store for the future. Thank you to all the teachers who have provided our son with a fun and safe learning environment. We appreciate you all!

We’ve been a member of cadence for 6 months and we love it. My son is in the infant room. As a first time mom I had lots of fear surrounding daycare, especially when I couldn’t go in and see the classroom. The staff has always done a fantastic job with communication and following my sons schedule to meet his specific needs. My son enjoys going, and it has definitely been beneficial for his development. Now that the pandemic is over, I am able to go in and visit his classroom. The facility is clean and well kept. I never have any worry when I drop him off.

Our daughters have attended Cadence-Farmington for nearly two year, and both have a lot of love for this school and especially their teachers. The staff are all very attentive, caring, and clearly have a passion for working with children. The director and assistant director are prompt in responding to questions or concerns, and have been very accommodating with all of our schedule and care requests. Having our daughters enrolled in a reliable and high-quality daycare gives my husband and I peace of mind while at work. We highly recommend Cadence-Farmington to any family seeking care.
