Our Full Circle Curriculum nurtures the whole child, from ages six weeks to five years. It fosters curiosity, social development, and the cognitive skills essential for Kindergarten success.

We understand every child learns and grows at their own pace. That's why we take a personalized, nurturing approach with each child. Our teachers combine a passion for creativity with a deep understanding of how children develop. This allows us to spark a love of learning, build problem-solving skills, and help your child become confident, kind, and ready for whatever life brings their way.

Meet the New Albany Owners

We are Mark and Kaylah Thompson, owners of Balanced Family Academy of New Albany. We have known the founders of Balanced Family Academy for over 20 years. For the last 10 years we have had a front-row seat to watch BFA’s growth, first as supportive friends, and then as loving parents to Emmitt (3 years) and James (5 months), both of whom have attended BFA since infancy. When we enrolled our first child at Balanced Family Academy at the height of the COVID pandemic, we quickly learned how important it was to know our child was receiving loving care in a safe, nurturing environment so that we could show up to work as our best selves and allow our family to thrive. We are passionate about providing other families with the same sense of comfort, community, and exceptional child care that we have experienced at BFA, and providing teachers with the tools and support they need to positively impact your child’s growth and development every single day. We can’t wait to meet your families, and we look forward to serving this community!
