As a first-time mom returning to work I had so many worries about placing my son in daycare, it did not take long for me to perceive that my son was in excellent care. This establishment proved to me that they are dedicated to the service of God through the love & care they give my son every day. 9 months in I can confidently say that my son loves VCA & as a parent I'm grateful for the detailed information and collaboration VCA has towards my son's development and milestones!

We are deeply grateful to have been part of the Vine Christian Academy family from the beginning. Watching the school grow and flourish has been a blessing, and we feel privileged to have played a role in its journey. The support and guidance our children have received from the dedicated teachers and staff have been invaluable, especially during one of the hardest seasons in our lives, with our daughter’s diagnosis. How they have covered us with so much love, care, and most importantly prayers. We are thankful for the strong foundation in faith and academics that the school has provided. We give thanks to God for guiding and blessing Vine Christian Academy, and we look forward with excitement to the bright future ahead.

I am not big on giving reviews. But VCA deserves one. The love and care they show to every single one of the students is something I never thought I would see in a school. My daughter has been there since she is 2 months old and VCA is one of her favorite places in the world, and that’s just result of all the dedication and love she receives from all the staff and teachers! I 100% recommend this school to everyone that I know.
