About Us

What is Canterbury Academy?

We are a preschool welcoming children ages 2-6. At Canterbury Academy our goal is to establish a strong educational foundation that will support lifelong learning for each child.

What/Who is Canterbury?

Canterbury was a home based business by the Gomez family daycare in 2004. We wanted to expand our services to provide for more children and families, and in 2010 Canterbury Academy was established. Betty and Eula had a vision to create an environment that nurtures children, while giving them the tools necessary to create a strong educational foundation as we are building confidence and opportunities to learn in a diverse setting.

Where are we?

We are in the heart of Inglewood, close to E Manchester and S La Brea Ave.
