Our Philosophy
At Cadence Academy Brier Creek, we believe in providing children with the tools necessary to excel in each stage of their development, ultimately preparing them for success in elementary school and beyond.
What Makes Our Preschool Unique
We understand that parents have a lot of responsibilities to juggle every day. In fact, we are parents, too. With this in mind, we offer unique “extras” as part of our child care and educational programs.
For example, our cook prepares nutritious breakfast snacks, lunches and afternoon snacks each day at no extra cost. Our state-of-the-art classrooms are designed around children’s needs, specifically curated to improve their readiness for elementary school and beyond. Each of our classrooms and our playground are equipped with a webcam, allowing you to check-in on your child as often as you’d like.
