Warning!!!! Long REVIEW! I highly recommend Ahayah academy!!!! I wish I had them when I had my first child 22 years ago! I was nervous about my 2 year old's developmental progress and was told that he may be autistic because he was not verbalizing at all. That goes to show you how quickly pediatricians like to label our children. Since going to Ahayah my toddler is singing nursery rhymes, he knows all of his colors, shapes including hexagon, pentagon, octagon, ( not just the basics) word recognition, puzzles, problem solving, forms of transportation, hygiene (washing hands and face) body parts

I am a parent who has nothing but praise for the school. The school thrives in excellence in education and character building. Their approach to discipline and diversity is right on point. The teachers are very encouraging and caring. They keep parents informed and they listen. I feel truly blessed to have my daughter at Ahayah Academy.
