We love the Academy of Indian Lake Village. When we first moved to Hendersonville 6 months ago, finding a quality preschool program for our son was at the top of our to-do list. After visiting several local preschools, we were feeling a bit discouraged, but then we visited the Academy and we knew it was the perfect fit for our son. The teachers and staff are incredible and provide excellent care and instruction. When my son needed some extra help, the teachers were more than willing to accommodate his needs and work with him to achieve goals. The management and leadership really take time to listen to parents and check in on families. They strive to create a community aspect and it truly shows! When we walk through the halls, its not just my sons teachers who say hi to him, but almost every teacher at the academy knows my son by name. Its the little things like this that make it feel like home. We are so grateful for the staff and teachers of the academy. They love and care for the children so well and truly love what they do. In addition to the excellent staff, I also love the tadpoles app they use at the Academy. Its great to see pictures and updates of my son throughout the day. The teachers do a great job of communicating with me about my sons progress and I appreciate the details about when he napped, ate, and what activities they did. Overall, the Academy has exceeded our expectations. Its an excellent preschool with top notch teachers and staff. Were so grateful to be a part of the Academy family!

My husband and I both knew we wanted our 2 kids to go to one of the top 3 daycare/preschools in Hendersonville and after touring all of them there was no question that The Academy was the BEST! From the moment you walk in the door you feel welcomed and it always smells good/clean... Always! It has an open layout so you do not feel like your children are being crammed into the building to get as many kids in there as possible. We have 2 children that go there. One is in Toddler 2 and his teachers, Ms. Bekah and Ms. Kayla are the sweetest! Everyday I drop him off they immediately come to my aid to assist me with anything that I need. You can also tell how much they pay attention to your child just from the things they mention about them..... the little details about their personalities! That means a lot!! Even his old teachers, Ms. Ashley and Ms. Shenae will still stop to say hello to us! Not to mention, every person that works there knows my childrens names as well as the parents! Our other child is in Pre-K 3 and his teachers Ms. Sarina and Ms. Ashleigh are truly one of a kind! They have educational plans set in place that are implemented daily! I can tell my son is learning a lot from these ladies and enjoys it because he gets so excited to share his experiences with me each time I pick him up! Thank you Academy for treating my two angels with love and respect! Keep up the good work!

Let me start by stating I have thoroughly reviewed many daycares, preschools, and mothers day out programs. I love The Academy! I have started with them as a full time working mother, then had some time to stay home with my children, and have recently returned to part time work. We used them when I was full time and have returned to them currently. I was not sure I wanted to use them again, but the current staff and leadership are phenomenal! The facility is clean, the staff is happy and joyful, and they adore my little ones. This means the most to me! I have experience various types of curriculum, and also believe The Academy has a wonderful approach of teaching children through experiential learning. They have welcomed my feedback and questions and have implemented things to tailor more to each of my childrens specific needs. I cannot be more grateful for them and the joy my children experience when arriving there. I highly recommend this facility and am convinced I have my children in the best place while I work. I know and have experienced other programs. I am grateful and feel blessed to have them.

My daughter has attended the Academy for almost 2 years. I have always been leery of typical day care centers, but the Academy has gone above and beyond our expectations. Our experience there has been great, and my daughter has made great strides-- both.academically and socially. The staff there is really invested, and they truly care about my daughters needs and development. They are flexible, accommodating, and trustworthy. Its the only center I know of that has video monitors, and that provides great peace of mind for parents like me. They also provide snacks and lunches every day, and the facilities always look clean. The Academy is always doing special things for the kids to keep things interesting & fun-- petting zoo, bouncy house day, water and mud play days, grandparents lunches, visits from the snow cone truck & other special visitors, movie nights, holiday parties, pre-k "prom," and tons of other events. From our experience, its really a family atmosphere, and Id recommend it to all who are looking for a great place for their kids to spend their weekdays.

My grandchild attends the Academy of Indian Lake and sometime I pick her up. I have picked her up at a chain school she attended in the past and I did not feel very welcome. But at this school, I am always given a warm welcome. The staff are very nice and helpful to me. My grandchild seems extremely happy here. I can tell she feels loved and at home. They know my grandchild by name. She is always showing off activities she has completed. She is learning sooo much and I can tell that they really do care about her. I can always glance at the calendar and see the fun events that they plan. The management is always available and professional. Our family will miss the Academy family this fall when our granddaughter begins the kindergarten magnet program. Thank you for everything! It makes a grandparent feel good to know that their grandchild is in such loving and capable hands.

I have worked at AOILV for almost 3 years! I absolutely love my job and everything this company stands for! We believe that kids learn through play and I love watching them learn and having fun with them everyday. Im so in love with my job and the kids! The academy has never had a better management team! Ashley and Candace are amazing. Ive never seen two more dedicated women. Candace loves to make things for the kids and decorate the center! And Ashley literally has a heart of gold! They really give their all for our center and our families. I left the academy for school for a few months and I had never realized what a true family I have there until then! We strive everyday to make not only the staff feel like that, but our families too! We are here because of you and for you and I couldnt be happier! AOILV is truly the best childcare center I have ever stepped foot in!

We had a wonderful experience at The Academy at Indian Lake. We have two young sons and I never worried when I dropped them off because each and every staff member loved our boys like they were their own. We regretfully had to leave the preschool recently because our family relocated and it was so sad to say goodbye! My oldest child initially struggled with Autism spectrum issues and I fully believe it is the primary result of the discipline and education provided by this top notch preschool that he did not qualify as Autistic anymore a little over a year ago. I felt we developed personal relationships with staff and this was fundamental in the growth and overall wonderful experience we had here. I very highly recommend this preschool to anyone who wants above and beyond for their child. Every penny I spent was worth it.
