Our team has worked alongside each other for a couple of years now and have grown the vision of ALA from a tiny nugget of an idea into what it is now. Together, we bring a wealth of experience and a deep passion for early childhood education, special education, and business. Using our strengths and unique perspectives, together,  we believe that we can truly foster a love for learning in a fun and safe environment for your kiddos! We love to chat with families and share our vision, so please send us a message and let us know if you'd like to come by and meet us!

Meet the directors!


Adventure Learning Academy is dedicated to providing an environment where children can learn and grow in a safe and nurturing space. As a professional with a Bachelors Degree in Special Education, and who is in the final semester of a Masters in Christian Counseling, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team. I believe that every child deserves a quality education, and that begins at an early age. By partnering with families, we create a warm and welcoming environment that supports learning and growth at every stage. Most importantly, I am a proud Mimi to two wild boys, which has given me a unique perspective on the needs of children with creative personalities.

Rachel Phillips-

Owner/Operations Director

Hi I’m Rachel, with over 15 years of experience in early childhood education, I’m passionate about helping little ones grow, explore, and discover the world around them. As a current foster parent of two sweet littles, I know the importance of creating a safe, loving environment where every child feels seen, valued, and encouraged.

At Adventure Learning Academy, every day is a new journey filled with curiosity, creativity, and laughter. We believe learning should be hands-on, joyful, and tailored to each child’s unique personality—because here, every child’s adventure matters.

Hi! My name is Ashley, and I am thrilled to introduce you to Adventure Learning Academy! As a childcare professional with more than 15 years of experience, I have seen firsthand the incredible benefits of a high-quality early childhood education. I am passionate about creating engaging and diverse learning experiences for children, including messy art, sensory play, and music-based learning. As a teacher, I strongly believe in being an active participant in the classroom and continually learning alongside my students. Above all, I am a proud mother of two rambunctious boys, and I understand how vital it is to provide a safe, nurturing environment for children to grow and thrive.
