Celebrating 17 years of

excellence and counting!

Our Staff

Committed to Serving Families


We celebrate childhood at CVA and endeavor to impact the lives of each child and family with the love of Jesus Christ. Our teachers are committed to meeting the needs of every child through a nurturing environment that is focused on building lifelong skills and promoting excellence.

Inspiring Teachers


Whether they are helping infants form their very first words or helping school-age children master multiplication, our teachers have one thing in common: A desire to inspire children to learn and grow as they discover their God-given talents and abilities.

Each of our qualified staff has met state educational requirements and also completed health and safety training. Our teachers each specialize in a specific age group and build a relationship with that class throughout the entire year.

Small Classes with a Structured Environment


We have specialized programs at CVA for infants and toddlers, preschool, pre-k, kindergarten and school-age children. Each age group has a daily schedule of activities in a small class that promotes both group activities and one-on-one interaction. To learn more about our programs for each age group, please go to Programs & Curriculum.
