At Early Learning Children’s Academy, we understand how important it is to find reliable, quality childcare in a city as busy as Philadelphia. Our Rising Sun Avenue center in Northeast Philadelphia provides a safe, supportive environment where children can learn, play, and develop real confidence, and where parents can feel good about the care their child receives every day.
We welcome children as young as six weeks old into our infant program, giving your baby a nurturing start with attentive, qualified caregivers. From there, your child can grow through our toddler, preschool, and pre-K classrooms, each designed around age-appropriate learning and development. We also offer school age care for older children and a summer camp program to keep kids active and engaged during breaks.
Our Philadelphia center follows a curriculum that combines structured learning with imaginative play, building the social, emotional, and academic skills children need before entering kindergarten. We work closely with every family to make sure your child is getting the individual attention and encouragement they need to thrive, no matter where they are in their development.
We encourage every family to tour our center before enrolling. Walk through our classrooms, meet our teaching staff, and see firsthand how we create a positive learning environment for children at every age. Fill out the form below and we’ll reach out within 24 hours to schedule a visit, or call us directly at (215) 742-9715.
We enroll children from six weeks through school age. Our classrooms are organized by age group: infants (6 weeks to 12 months), young toddlers, older toddlers, preschool (3 to 4 years), pre-K (4 to 5 years), and school age. Summer camp is also available for children during the summer months.
Our center is at 6613 Rising Sun Avenue in Philadelphia, PA 19111, in the Lawndale section of Northeast Philadelphia. We serve families throughout the surrounding neighborhoods including Lawncrest, Fox Chase, Burholme, Castor Gardens, Crescentville, and Olney. The center is accessible by SEPTA bus routes along Rising Sun Avenue and is close to the Fox Chase Regional Rail line.
Our Philadelphia center holds a Keystone STARS 4 rating, the highest level in Pennsylvania’s quality rating system for early learning programs. This rating recognizes excellence in staff qualifications, learning environment, curriculum quality, and family engagement. It is the state’s way of identifying programs that go well above and beyond basic licensing standards.
Yes, we offer both full-time and part-time enrollment at our Rising Sun Avenue location. Part-time schedules are available in several age groups depending on current openings. We are open 6:30 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday, giving working families flexibility for drop-off and pick-up.

Our Philadelphia center maintains small class sizes with teacher-to-child ratios that meet or exceed Pennsylvania’s Department of Human Services requirements across every age group, from our infant room through school age care. Smaller ratios mean your child gets more direct interaction and individualized attention from their teachers.
We encourage families to contact our center directly at (215) 742-9715 to discuss payment options and whether subsidized childcare programs may apply. Pennsylvania offers several assistance programs for eligible families, and our staff can help guide you through the process.
