Frequently Asked Questions
How does Little Disciples Learning Academy fit into your educational goals?
Think of us as your educational and developmental partner. As a parent, you aim to provide your children a LOT – love, safety, comfort, education, nutrition, social skills, health, and mental well-being. Our program is designed to support you in fostering your child’s intellectual, social, emotional, and Christian growth.
What type of families use our program?
Stay-at-home or work-from-home parents, homeschool families, families with recently adopted children, special needs children, nannies & au pairs, grandparents, aunts & uncles, and children with illness. Anyone with a child under their care from ages 2.5-6 can benefit from our program.
What subjects will my child learn?
Our curriculum was developed to be very well-rounded with a special emphasis on tying a Christian worldview into our learning. We cover a wide range of subjects, such as literacy/reading, math, art, language, social studies, science, physical education and more. We develop the child intellectually, socially, and emotionally to give them a head start on kindergarten and life.
Will my child pay attention?
Yes! We have literally built our academy and curriculum around this goal. Just like math skills are learned, so is attention span. Our class duration and structure are designed for children ages 2-6 to stay engaged during the entire class. It is extremely common for students to need a few class sessions to feel comfortable enough to engage actively, participate fully, and pay attention. Learning patience, structure, and rules in a class setting is part of the learning process. The more children attend our classes, the better they learn these skills. Try us out! You will be amazed.
What ages does the developmental program serve?
Our program is perfect for children ages 2.5-6. These ages are recommended based on developmental milestones most children meet while in this age range.
Are you year round & when can we enroll?
Yes, we are year-round! You can enroll at any time. Our curriculum starts in the fall and concludes in the summer before restarting.
How does the free week work?
Your trial class is free of cost and free of obligation! Your child will join a real class so that the experience is exactly how it will be when you enroll.
What is the cancelation policy?
You can cancel your subscription at any time before the next billing cycle.
What is at home learning?
We understand you’re busy & may not be an expert in the field of early education. However, you still want the best for your child. We allow you to spend quality time with your child, while getting the development and education they need. Mrs. Kiki will teach live classes via Zoom so your child can learn from the comfort of your home. We focus on the educational piece so you can provide a well-rounded life for your child.
Is the free week really free?
Yes! Our free week really is free. Cancel within the free trial period and we will not bill your credit card on file.
Is Mrs. Kiki an experienced teacher?
Yes! She is a toddler homeschooling mom of two, a former High School English teacher, substitute teacher, and nanny. She has a degree in Sport Management with a minor in English and is currently studying to obtain her MFA in Creative Writing and is seminary trained.
What device or app do I need for class?
You will need a desktop, laptop, tablet, or phone with internet access, a camera, and the Zoom application so your child can participate and see their teacher and classmates optimally. Some parents cast the screen onto their television so their children can see even better.
Are parents/caregivers involved in classes?
Our classes are designed so children, with the help and guidance of their teacher, can participate with minimal support from their caregivers. Generally, caregivers set up the supplies at the beginning of class and stay near if the children need help and supervision.
