What we do
Going out? For shopping, a date, laundry, overtime — drop the little ones with us. We're here for you.
Infant & Toddler
Six weeks through 3 years old. Small groups, teachers who speak more than one language, and the same faces every day.
VPK Pre-K (Free)
We're a Florida VPK provider. If your child turns 4 by September 1, the state pays for their pre-K here.
Before & After School
K through 5th grade for the daily flow, with aftercare available up to 13 years old. Early drop-off, pick-up after school, a snack, homework help, and supper before you get them.
Weekend Care
We're open Saturdays and Sundays. A lot of our parents work hospital, retail, and hospitality weekends.
Hot Meals (CACFP)
Three meals a day, included. We're on the USDA Child & Adult Care Food Program through Family Central, Inc.
Need a ride?
