About Cadence Academy Preschool in Alpharetta, GA

Cadence Academy Preschool (formerly Peachtree Park Prep) offers an enriching and challenging preschool environment that lovingly prepares young children for future academic and professional success.

If you’re looking for a well-balanced preparatory experience that goes much deeper than typical daycare programming, you’ve come to the right place! Our preschool programs give our students a solid foundation in core subjects such as Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, but we balance these activities with lots of fun and specialty instruction in Art, Music, Spanish & Chinese, and Physical Education.

Our Programs

Loving to Learn

Loving to Learn is a theme that runs through each and every class at Cadence Academy Preschool. Your child’s first educational experiences are extremely important because they shape how your child will respond to educational opportunities throughout their academic career. We have high academic standards at Cadence Academy Preschool, but we achieve them through exciting and engaging educational activities so our preschool students can naturally develop a love of learning.

Kind Child

Kind Child is a program that helps us focus on the development of character and social-emotional skill. We want every child to feel at home at our preschool and Kind Child is the perfect way for our students and staff to make kindness a habit. We work on social and emotional skills every month and a valuable character trait such as Thankfulness, Empathy, Respect, and a Positive Self-Image every two months. Our goal is to elevate the emotional well-being of every child in our care and enrich friendships!

Getting to Our Preschool

Cadence Academy Preschool – North School is a block north of Old Milton Parkway (SR 120) in Alpharetta, Georgia. We’re next to Alpharetta Fire Station 84 on the east side of Park Bridge Parkway and our address is 225 Park Bridge Pkwy, Alpharetta, GA 30005. Give us a call if you’re in need of daycare services for your little one or if you’re looking for a preschool program that is proven to prepare young minds for future academic success. We would love to show you around our beautiful preschool campus and introduce you to our amazing teachers!

Mickie Nevel

School Director

Our beautiful school opened in January of 1998 and my daughter and son were two of the very first students to walk through our doors! Fast forward to July 1998, I started working here as a Toddler Teacher, quickly moved to Assistant Director and have been the School Director for many many years. In my spare time I love to practice yoga, shop for the latest trends and spend time with my family! It has been so rewarding to stay connected with our families over the years. We have hired former students as teachers and even have our very first alumni baby enrolled at our school! Our lifelong motto of “loving to learn” is thriving in the community and it has been my honor to be a part of this journey!

I started at this school in February of 1999. I have been the School Age Director, Art Director, Preschool lead teacher and in 2021 became Assistant Director.

I consider myself a leader with the heart of a teacher. My hobbies and interests are spending time with friends and family, crafting, watching movies & telling jokes. I have been married to my husband since 1989 and I am proud mother of two and even prouder grandmother of 3. Every day I love to help guide and observe little minds grow and learn!

Monica Jaime

Teacher of the Year

I started working as a lunch lady in 2005 and then I was promoted to assist in the Toddler classroom. I learned how to adjust in the various classes and all age groups. It is rewarding to be a part of the kids lives and see their different personalities. I enjoy helping the children learn and create in the classroom. It makes me so happy to see the children achieve their goals. In my free time, I like to watch TV and spend time with my family. I also like to bake desserts and go shopping.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Cadence. Our son started here at just 6 months old, and watching his growth under the care of this incredible team has been amazing. Ms. Anu guided him through so many important milestones — from sitting up to walking, to learning to point and identify objects. She truly nurtured his curiosity and confidence, and we know her gentle, attentive care played such a big role in the little boy he’s becoming. Now, at 15 months, he’s in Ms. Monica’s class, and he runs to her every morning. Seeing how much he adores her brings us so much peace and comfort. It’s clear she loves what she does and cares deeply for each child. Everyone at Cadence greets us by name. The classrooms are spotless, bright, and welcoming — and there’s none of that “daycare smell” we noticed elsewhere! The curriculum is outstanding — they incorporate STEM into activities even for the littlest ones, prioritize outdoor play, and include music, art, and even Spanish class. We originally found Cadence after our first daycare closed due to a terrible accident, and now we feel we were meant to be here all along. Ms. Kelly and Ms. Mickie lead with so much heart and professionalism — they invest deeply in their teachers and curriculum, and it shows. We’re endlessly grateful for the love, learning, and joy Cadence brings to our son every day. Thank you for giving him such a strong, happy foundation.

We came to Cadence Academy after a disappointing experience at another high-end day school in the Alpharetta area in 2022. Our daughter started in the two-year-old room and is now in Preppie III, graduating in May! Our son also attends Cadence, and we truly can’t say enough wonderful things about this school and its staff. One of the first things you’ll notice when you walk through the doors is the atmosphere — no children crying, no unpleasant smells (which can be common in daycares), just the sound of cheerful music in the rotunda and teachers actively engaging their students. The environment feels peaceful, structured, and full of joy. The curriculum is exceptional. Our daughter knows all 50 states, the planets in our solar system, basic Spanish vocabulary, and can count in Chinese. She writes her name and other words beautifully and already recognizes several sight words — she’s well on her way to reading full sentences! (Thank you, Mrs. Kavitha!) Of course, this progress is the result of years of thoughtful instruction and nurturing support. I truly believe the school’s success begins with its leadership. Mrs. Mickie and Mrs. Kelly are phenomenal directors who have built a strong, dedicated team of teachers. Their commitment shows — many of the staff members have been with Cadence for 20+ years, which speaks volumes about the culture and stability here. This school has been a true blessing for our family. I know how important and personal the decision is when choosing the right place for your children, and I can confidently say that Cadence Academy has exceeded every expectation. We couldn’t recommend it more highly.
