Caring, trained staff for your child’s daily care and growth.
At The Academy at VUMC, families can expect a team-focused preschool environment where children are cared for by staff who are trained, supported, and committed to helping children feel safe, known, and loved.
What Families Can Expect
Our staff works together to create a consistent, welcoming, and Christ-centered preschool experience.
A team approach to preschool care.
Because staffing can change over time, this page focuses on the values, training, and care standards that guide every person serving children at The Academy. Our goal is for families to feel confident when they apply, enroll, and entrust their children to our care.
Safe and Nurturing Care
Children are welcomed into a caring environment where safety, kindness, patience, and encouragement shape the rhythm of each day.
Trained and Supported Staff
Our staff members receive guidance, support, and training so they can serve children with confidence, consistency, and care.
Faith-Filled Learning
As a ministry of Versailles United Methodist Church, The Academy seeks to reflect Christian love through daily care, learning, and relationships.
Age-Appropriate Classrooms
Each classroom is shaped around the needs of the children in that stage of development, from infants through preschool-aged learners.
Family Partnership
We value communication with parents and guardians, working together to support each child’s growth, needs, and daily experience.
Consistent Expectations
While individual staff may change, our expectations for care, safety, respect, and Christian hospitality remain steady.
Parents can feel comfortable taking the next step.
