Taylor Act of Learning (Yeladim) Academy’s vision is to provide enriching early childhood experiences that positively impacts our world.
At Taylor Act of Learning Academy our mission is to provide quality care for children within the City of Cleveland.
We have seven goals that support our children, families, and staff.
We provide early learning and care for children ages six weeks to thirteen years of age. We are a Step Up to Quality Five-Star Rated Center, Inclusive Child Care Program, Pre4CLE site, and Ohio Healthy Program.
It is our philosophy that the development of the individual as a whole being is attained through the enrichment of the social, intellectual aspects of his/her nature. Our philosophy comes from the celebration of life through love, respect, caring, and sharing.
We offer only full- time care for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers ages from 6 weeks to 60 months. For children ages 6 to 13 years of age we offer, before and after school care during the school year. In addition, we offer full – time care for school age children for all school breaks (spring, winter, and summer), school holidays, teacher workdays, professional development, and school closures.
We offer field trips, indoor and outdoor play, and interactive activities.
Due to Covid 19, we ensure rigorous cleaning standards are maintained in every space throughout the center, to keep everyone healthy.
We believe in positive partnerships with families and will always maintain open communication with you. We promise to work in partnership with you to support your child’s developing mind and abilities.
Your child will be cared for by staff members that are certified and degreed to care for early learners. Staff are encouraged and required to attend ongoing professional development.

TALYA employs the number of child care staff members needed to meet staff/child ratios for the Center’s licensed capacity.
Child care staff members shall be assigned to a group of children and shall have regularly assigned working hours to give continuity of care and supervision to the children. However, our classroom ratios are often lower than State of Ohio’s licensing ratios.
At Taylor Act of Learning (Yeladim) Academy we seek highly trained and dedicated staff. All lead teachers possess a CDA or Bachelor’s degree. We understand the importance of a child’s developmental stages from birth to five years of age. We aim to work with families to ensure their child thrives during these transitional years. Through love, care, and compassion our staff is able to meet the needs of diverse families.
