Sunset Academy

Sunset Academy is a licensed childcare center, providing a loving start for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years. We opened our doors in 1994 to provide a safe, educational learning environment for children in the Longmont community and beyond. Our center offers low teacher to child ratios that set us apart from other centers. For our children we offer Spanish classes, Stretch and Grow, Music Care and a Soccer program. We offer a before and after school program with pick up and drop off to schools in the surrounding area. Sunset offers a summer camp program for children 5-12. We offer fun filled and educational field trips each week.
Please email or call to schedule a tour.
We are excited to teach and see your little ones learn and grow.

The Longmont Times Call has voted us " the best daycare in Longmont."

Our family loves the teachers at Sunset Academy! During the ownership and management transitions, we had considered looking for another option for our sons. Fortunately, they have brought in a new assistant director and new teachers, and have increased the consistency of teacher placement with the teachers who had been there for a while. We will forever be grateful for our oldest son's experiences in the Brown and Black Bear classrooms from 2015-2017; now he is in private kindergarten and the Grizzlies before and after school program. Leewitt, Rachel, Rob, and Steph are great teachers, role models, and loving adults in his life! It is imperative to us, at this age, that our son is in an environment that helps foster a positive attitude towards education, teaches content that is age appropriate, and LOVES our child- they do it all!

Our younger son is in Koalas II with Melissa and Lindsey. They are exceeding the same expectations - helping our son love being at the center, teaching him age appropriate skills and behaviors, and loving and caring for our child they way he deserves to be.
