New location coming to Arvada in 2026!
I'm very excited to announce that Westwood Academy is growing! I just signed a lease to open a second location in Arvada. This location will be co-located with Developmental Disabilities Resource Center in a building that is a former elementary school. DDRC is a nonprofit that provides a variety of resources for people of all ages with disabilities, including developmental screenings and early intervention services. I think that is a great fit with the work that we do because families will be able to get evaluations and services on site.
Our Arvada location will start by serving infants and toddlers (6 weeks to 3 years) in three classrooms. Eventually, we will open a fourth classroom to serve 3-4 year olds. Construction will happen over the summer. We have a goal of obtaining our occupancy permit in September. Then, we will need to go through the licensing process, which takes about 90 days. We anticipate opening in January 2026.
Thank you for trusting us with your children. It’s because of your support that we are able to grow and serve more families. I’m excited we can do our small part to fill the 83,000+ shortage of needed childcare spaces in Colorado.
