My grandson has been attending the Rippon location since he was an infant. As a vibrant 3 year old now, he is a confident little boy who loves his school, friends and teachers and cannot wait to be dropped off each day. He is learning so much and engaging in a variety of educational activities each day. His teachers are very loving and treat each child like their own! We are very happy with Learning Paths Academy Rippon.

- grandparent at LPA Rippon

I am so thankful that we enrolled our son at Rippon! The staff is the best that I have seen and they pour their hearts into every child that walks through the door. My son has been there since he was 15 weeks old, now 3.5, and has learned so much from everyone there. Everyday he is engaging in hands-on activities.  From Science experiments, to reading, morning yoga, and so many other activities. I wouldn’t want my son anywhere else. I am thankful for his teachers and Mrs. Charlotte, knowing that my son is in amazing hands throughout the day!

About Me

My name is Charlotte Nicely, and I would like to introduce myself as your Director. I have worked for LLE Group since 2001. I have been the Director of the Rippon location for ten years.  I am originally from Woodbridge; Virginia and I have two daughters. We enjoy family trips, camping and going to the beach. I attended Northern Virginia Community College and received my One Year Certificate in early childhood education. I have 24 years of experience working with children. I have worked as a preschool teacher, school age teacher, an Assistant Director, and now as a Director. The innocence of a child is so honest and sincere. What better career choice than to be part of loving and shaping the minds of our future. I love when the children tell me how their day is going. I enjoy getting hugs and reading books with the children. It’s simple; children are our future. We are here to provide guidance and love them in a safe, trusting environment.
