Our full day childcare programs give you peace of mind by delivering an exceptional education and fun-filled day to your children from caring, experienced professionals in a nurturing environment as comfortable as home.

At the same time, our Villa Rica-based preschool and childcare center maintains a warm, loving atmosphere and year-round programs that promote a lifelong love of learning. We offer the following quality preschool and childcare programs:

  • Infant Childcare (6 weeks to 1 year) – Your child with experience an opportunity for learning all day, every day in a safe and loving environment.
  • Junior Toddlers (12 – 24 months) – Our toddler teachers guide and encourage student’s sense of discovery and learning.
  • Senior Toddlers (24 – 36 months) – With a low teacher-to-student ratio, this program allows the necessary time for positive interaction between teacher and child.
  • PreK 3 (3 to 4 years) – We challenge each student to reach ambitious academic milestones as they prepare to enter pre-kindergarten.
  • Private PreK 4 (4 to 5 years) – This program strives to ensure all graduates are “school ready” and set to successfully make the transition to Kindergarten.
  • Georgia PreK 4 (4 to 5 years) – A lottery funded education program aimed at preparing students for Kindergarten.

Our “Kindergarten Club” prepares pre-kindergarten students with essential skills to stand-out in problem-solving, mathematics, reading/writing, social studies, and science. In fact, we recently administered a Kindergarten Readiness test to 3,805 children across 155 of our Cadence Education Family of Schools. The results were phenomenal: we identified a total of 89.6 percent of these children with “Kindergarten Readiness” and 63.4 percent with “Advanced Readiness” for those full-time students that had participated for more than a year in our program.

I began my teaching career in 2009 and joined Cadence in Georgia’s Pre-K program in August 2013. In 2016, I was promoted to Assistant Director, and in 2023, I assumed the role of Director. I enjoy early childhood education because it allows me to make a meaningful impact during the most critical stage of a child’s development. It’s incredibly rewarding to help lay the foundation for lifelong learning and watch children grow emotionally, socially, and intellectually. In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband and our two children, Cash and Cohen. We love being outdoors and attending events at the ball fields.

Assistant Director

I have been with Sunbrook Academy since February 2014. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Westwood College in December 2012. I started as a Lead Senior Toddler Teacher, then became an Assistant Director shortly after. During my time here at Sunbrook Academy, I have enjoyed educating and nurturing children and observing their development over the years. I take pride in ensuring safety and giving parents peace of mind while their children are in our care. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, attending concerts, and loving my fur baby Cupcake.

Our family has been part of this daycare community for years, and we couldn't be happier! Our daughter went here when she was little, and now our 19-month-old son goes here every day. Knowing he is in such loving, safe, and engaging hands gives us complete peace of mind. The teachers and staff truly care about the children and treat them like family. Even at such a young age, our son has learned and grown so much - his vocabulary, social skills, and confidence are blossoming daily. If you are looking for a warm, nurturing environment where your children can truly thrive, Sunbrook Academy at Bay Springs is for you. We are so grateful for everything this daycare has done for our family!
