CFA’s advanced science-based early learning pedagogy is strategically designed to maximize your child’s brain development, motor skills development, and emotional intelligence (EQ).
Our goal is to stimulate, activate, and motivate your child’s natural desire to learn.
“Our 11 month old has been attending Child First Academy since April and we are so grateful for her experience there. I can tell from week one that she was excited and eager to go. The staff is caring, genuine, and the teachers take the time to talk to you at drop off and pick up.”

CFA and COVID-19
CFA is the safest Preschool in Chicago!
From the beginning of the pandemic, CFA was a pioneer in establishing Covid protection protocols…providing the safest environment for young children. While at this time, the mask and vaccine mandates have been dropped, CFA remains ultra-vigilant in maintaining a virus and bacteria free environment – beginning with our hospital grade UV light air purification system.
“We’re completely happy with Child First Academy. We can tell our son likes being there, and that the staff truly care for him. We like seeing pictures and videos of his day with his little friends. I would choose Child First Academy again in a heartbeat, and would recommend it to anyone without reservation.”
