We offer daycare and youth services for children and families in Southwest Philadelphia and beyond through our Woodland Academy Child Development Center (Woodland Academy).
Woodland Academy opened in 1990 with a goal to provide services that are enriching and stimulating in a safe environment for children ages six weeks to 14 years.
The staff at Woodland Academy is dedicated and committed to giving your child culturally sensitive and academically appropriate experiences as they mature and develop from children into young men and women. Much of our staff has been with Woodland Academy since its beginning, creating a close, family-oriented atmosphere that is critical in childcare.
