Our Story
Creative Learning Academy Rice, established in 2017, is a nature-based preschool devoted to fostering a love for learning among infants to pre-kindergarten children. We pride ourselves on our hands-on approach, emphasizing project based learning in a nurturing environment.

Our Programs
Enriching Experiences
At Creative Learning Academy, we believe in the power of curiosity and creativity fostering a love for learning. Join us in nurturing young minds who appreciate the beauty of the natural world.
Infants
We like to get "messy" from time to time exploring different textures. Daily activities in this class allow the children to explore and learn in a safe and nurturing environment. Our curriculum is carried out through weekly lesson plans which help develop language skills, fine and large motor skills, and encourages sensory exploration.
Toddlers
We are committed to support each child in developing curiosity and a sense of wonder, acquiring a sense of trust, and exploring in their own way at their own pace. Our curriculum is based on the philosophy that children are competent, self-driven learners, who benefit most through exploration and their interactions with each other.
Preschoolers
Whether real or imaginary, we feel that it is only through actual experiences that a child can truly learn to truly empathize with the lives and feelings of others. The more creative we can be with our teaching, the more we are to offer an overall whole learning experience. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning.
Along with our amazing Creative Curriculum, we incorporate programs like Heggerty Phonemic Awareness, Playing Preschool, Early Learning Matters, and Harmony SEL.

Parent
My daughter attended CLA last year as her first daycare experience and I cannot say enough great things about the entire program and teachers here. Their communication was always on point and I appreciated the small class sizes so teachers really got to know my daughter while she was there. I am so glad to have found this place, and was sad to leave such an incredible program, the only reason we left was because we had to relocate. If you are looking for a top notch childcare program nearby, then you are in GREAT hands at CLA! Lauren Taborsky

We had a great experience with our child at this daycare/school! We loved the small classes and attention our child was given and felt very comfortable and safe with the high quality of the staff team. Pierce Bush
Parent
Great place. Moved here from another nearby daycare a few years ago and it has been like night and day. The outside area in the back is amazing for the kids to play. Vikram Birring
