Early on, we decided that other curriculums out there didn’t fit the needs of the ever-changing world of child education and daycare. Children are constantly evolving and getting smarter; no two children are alike.
At Cornerstone Academy, we believe that children are inspired by play-based learning. That’s why we offer several different areas of play in each of our educational programs, to help encourage early development while still having fun.
This includes outdoor play, music, and movement! CSA offers two hours of outdoor play from April to October and one hour of outdoor play from November to March.
By helping children form close friendships, become aware of emotions, and contribute to the classroom routine, we’re developing their early social skills.
Here we expand the children’s vocabulary by having them listen to and retell stories. We also expose them to letters and numbers, and help them understand directions.
The children explore various interest areas in the classroom by learning through play. They become curious about certain subjects, objects, and engage with peers during play. 50 minutes of uninterrupted play is given at CSA.
Through the exploration of various senses, art materials, textures, colors, and shapes, we help the children grow their budding creativity.
The children learn important self-sufficiency skills such as washing hands, toilet training, self-feeding, undressing and dressing, and cleaning up after themselves.

We want to make your day as easy as possible, which is why we also offer before and after-school transportation services for both elementary and 4K students! Under the watchful eye of our experienced caretakers, your child will be safely brought from our Kenosha daycare to and from school. We offer this service to and from Bose Elementary, Harvey Elementary, and Somers Elementary.
We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to experience an unforgettable summer filled with creativity, learning, and (most importantly) adventure! That’s why we’re so proud to offer Cornerstone Academy’s summer camp program for children ages 5 to 12. From fun field trips around Kenosha to hands-on crafts that help spark their imagination, it’s time for your little one to make long-lasting memories at summer camp!
For ages under 3, we redirect children. For ages 3 and older, we redirect or may implement a cool-down period for 2 to 3 minutes when needed.
In order to keep our children, staff, and families as healthy as possible, we require children with a fever, vomiting, diarrhea, or contagious disease to be sent home. We call and/or email parents to pick up children if we see signs/symptoms of sickness while in care.
Cornerstone provides a 9AM snack and 2:30PM snack and a 5:30PM Snack. Parents provide lunch. Lunch can be cold or warmups. Please refrain from bringing easy mac. We ask that those items be prepared ahead of time so we can just warm them up.
Payment is due weekly for Tuition. We require customers to sign up for Tuition Express, an auto bill pay system. We will pull your tuition from a checking/savings account and/or credit card weekly.
Always call the center if you will be running late. If you pick up AFTER 6PM, you will be charged $3.00 per minute for each minute after 6PM. We are only licensed to care for children until 6PM.
Cornerstone is closed for all Major holidays. Thanksgiving, Friday after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day. We also close if we are without power or water for more than 2 hours. We would only close for inclement weather if our parking lot was unable to get plowed or our entrances are blocked. This is rare.
Yes, we do but co-pays apply.
In order to protect your child, we require that you provide the names of any individual who has permission to pick up your child. We require advance notice from you when someone other than those listed on the pickup list will be picking up your child. We will check identification to assure the name you give us matches the name on the ID. If we have any questions or concerns, we ask that you are available via cell phone to provide confirmation.
Yes, we have set times for each age group to enjoy outside time daily. Children will not go outside with Wind chills of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below for children age 2 and above. Wind chills of 20 degrees Fahrenheit or below for children under age 2. Please bring weather appropriate clothing for your child daily.
Enrollment is dependent on the needs of the child. Prior to making an enrollment decision, Cornerstone must make an individualized assessment about the child to determine if we can meet their needs. If you have any questions or would like more information regarding this, we encourage you to please contact us.
Our programs start at a competitive daily rate and are adjusted based on age group and the number of days per week your child attends. We’d be happy to put together an exact figure once we know your schedule and needs. Please feel free to contact us so we can discuss it further.
