Where Bright Futures Begin

At The Early Years Academy, we nurture each child’s natural curiosity and creativity through play-based learning in a safe, caring environment. Located in Morrison, Illinois, our team of early childhood educators provide personalized attention that helps every child grow, learn, and thrive.

From first steps to first friendships, every moment at The Early Years Academy is filled with discovery and joy. We believe children learn best when they feel loved, respected, and inspired to explore. Our family-centered approach supports not only our students but also the families who trust us with their most precious gift—their child.
