Schools near Lithia, FL

“Finding a great daycare these days is very difficult to find. Finding a daycare with good staff that care about another family’s children is even more difficult. This is in response to “Wiggins room” I, and I’m sure plenty of other parents that STILL have children enrolled with Children’s Academy of FH will tell you their review couldn’t be further from the truth. This person is smearing this business and the people who work hard to make our kids day fun and successful to be vindictive and their review is retaliative. We have been there since 2020. Our kids (now 2 in elementary, 1 still there) LOVED and still love it there. Mrs Tammy-works in the kitchen. She does NOT make dishes for our kiddos that are gross. They are nutritionally balanced. I am a stickler about what my kids eat and I did not find their menu to be unreasonable ever.
Mr “Bean”- Ma’am/Sir - His name is Mr B. or Mr Baldwin. Clearly you were not there long enough to even know that. He has the kindest soul.
Mrs Joeanna and Mrs Marisol- those two women are the heart of that school. Their entire day revolves around those kids. They walk the halls to make sure everyone (teachers, students) in the classrooms are happy and functioning as they should, they know all of the kiddos names that walk through their doors from past to present, they fill the monthly calendars up to make sure the kids have a blast during the week and make learning fun.
All of the “new teachers” ok, there were 2 that JOINED the team and 3 left to work closer to home. The new teachers are great! I couldn’t be more happier to have my kids there. To the public, do not be discouraged by this person who is smearing this business. This is a wonderful daycare that truly loves your kids no matter what. By the way, they follow the market for pricing. That is what a business does to stay in business. ?‍♀️”

“the best daycare in the area ! I highly Recommend this place to parents, the owner mrs Marie, shes amazing and her staff to ! it was such a blessing having my two kids in there .”

“I am very grateful to have my daughter at Goddard. Firstly, Mr. Shekar the owner is extremely caring about his school and the experience of the children as well as the parents. He always addresses my concerns with understanding and attentively with quick solutions. The teachers have been phenomenal. I have had her there for about a year and a half, she has rotated across 3 classroom levels so far and has had several teachers. The ones that stood out to me the most were Ms.Kim from the crocs class (who is very organized and structured) , Ms.Reagan from baboons (very helpful and communicative), Ms.Dawn from Cheetahs (one of my favorites as she has shown true care for my daughter, her learning, her comfort in the classroom socially, her energy and interaction with the children is amazing you can tell how much they love her and vice versa - I think my daughter has learned the most under her and Ms.Noah’s class, and they have both helped a lot to make sure she’s on track with her potty routine. Ms.Noah is really great as well, they both communicate with me constantly and this is so helpful for me to know what’s going on with my daughter.), Ms.Cici is always so kind and loving towards my daughter as well. Ms.Natalie and Ms.Amari I believe are assistant teachers - they are also so sweet and helpful. The curriculum is amazing. Not only do I notice my daughter learning new things on a daily basis, but she also never wants to leave school!!! And she gets excited when I tell her we’re going to school today. I’m sure this will change when she’s a teenager lol, but it gives me a peace of mind knowing she is so happy here. I have no complaints - the front desk admin was a bit uptight for a while, but they have definitely improved their interactions after listening to our feedback! Which we appreciate. They also do lots of fun celebrations and extracurricular things for the kids to learn and have fun. One thing I would recommend is an option to provide school lunch for the kids. We had this in her previous daycare, and it takes a lot of the stress off the parents. I would pay for it of course. All in all, love this place and I’m looking to put my soon to come baby here as well.”

“I have had the pleasure of having both of my school aged kids attend Learn and Grow for their After School Program since my kiddos went to Nelson Elementary School. We have attended for 4 years. We have did their days off of school there, and summers as well. The mother daughter team who run this center are absolutely exceptional! In our time here, my boys were treated with so much kindness, that this center became family. This is where you want your kiddos. Moving back to an area that has changed so much, you can never know who to fully trust with your kids anymore. I was beyond happy with the experience this team shares and how much attention they give to my children. They provide a safe environment for all who enter and a safe place where my kiddos can continue to thrive.”

“We LOVE Discovery Point. We actually pulled and took my son to a new daycare- closer to our house. We took him back to discovery 2 days after the new school. He adores his teachers and staff, as do we! I can't reccomend this center enough. You will not be disappointed! Prices are great too ;)”

“I’m so thankful to have my boys at TLE Brandon! The staff treat them like family and my boys are so happy to be there. My infant is in Mrs. Alison’s class, along with Mrs. Cel and Ms. Kiana. They are amazing, I cannot say enough about them! He literally jumps out of my arms to get to Mrs. Cel in the mornings. My toddler started out in Ms. Yanissa’s class with the help of Ms. Keeleih (who he is obsessed with) and has now transitioned to Preppers with Ms. Yudanis and Ms. Prachi. They all have been so patient with him and I can tell he truly feels loved by all of them. Their L.E.A.P curriculum has helped both of them thrive and learn at a fast pace. My toddler is great with his ABCs and is now counting extremely well. He has become very independent and proud of his accomplishments and my infant is already starting to talk and learning sign language, it makes me so happy to see. I love this center so much and everyone in it.”

“Definitely a positive experience for me and a friend. I am 74 and just getting back into riding after 20 years. So glad to find this place and hope to return soon!”

“I’ve been taking my son for years and I brought my newborn here as well. Ms.Heidi is the best and my son even said his favorite teacher is Ms.Heidi and I love that she is so patient and caring for both my boys. I love that the daycare allows you to have access to the cameras to check on your kids and they have an app to update you on them throughout the days. I love this place and their staff is the best!”

“I am sooo thankful one of my friends encouraged us to sign our little one up for VPK with the Village. This year was amazing! The attention they pour on the children, and the events throughout the year, and the amount of growth I've witnessed from my child - priceless! Don't hesitate, because this school fills up fast, and there's a reason why! It's definitely the place to be!”

“This is a fantastic location - involved staff that is present so when you drop off or pickup, you are able to speak with someone in the front staff. They love kids. All necessary food and drinks are provided. We adore the kitchen staff too! Even Ms. Jamilla (probably didn’t spell it right, sorry!) knows our kids and greets them with open arms. Sometimes there are rough drop off days and the entire team, including front & kitchen staff, is willing to help out (Kaitlin, Morgan, Meghan). They are so kind. Daily summaries are in the app, and are concise but informative. They provide pictures as well if you want them. We are grateful the Lord sent us to this location when our previous daycare unexpectedly & temporarily shut its doors.”

“I moved my son to the Children’s Nest after not being pleased with his previous school. It was the best decision! My son loves going to school (VPK), has learned so much, and is doing so well. They educate the children while still remembering that they are still young children and they have other needs outside of just academics. I cannot say enough good things about this place. All of the teachers including the director have truly been amazing and we will miss this place when my son starts kindergarten. If you are searching for an amazing place to send your children that truly care about your child, then definitely consider sending your child here.”

“My boy has been going there for almost a year now und it was not always easy with new teachers and directors , but what I wanted to say is I wish Yahira Marquez would have been they’re since the beginning of my sons first day . Yahira Marquez is the best I am so glad she is there I can’t thank enough she goes beyond my sons needs and makes sure everything is going good as well as his teacher now Mrs.TijuanaThank you so much”

“I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience my son had at this daycare over the past four years. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt like we were part of a warm and loving family. The staff and administrators are not just professionals; they are genuinely caring individuals who invest their hearts and souls into the well-being and development of every child.My son thrived in this nurturing environment, and it's evident that the caregivers here go above and beyond to create a stimulating and safe space for the little ones. The educational activities, creative play, and social interactions have not only prepared my son for school but have also instilled in him a love for learning and a sense of confidence that will undoubtedly stay with him throughout his life.The bond he formed with his teachers and peers is truly heartwarming, and I credit the daycare's supportive atmosphere for fostering these meaningful connections. Leaving my child in their capable hands every day was never a worry; I knew he was in the best possible care.To the entire staff and administration, thank you for being such an essential part of my son's formative years. Your dedication and love have made an indelible impact on our lives, and we will always cherish the memories and lessons he gained here. If you're looking for a daycare that feels like a second home, look no further. This place is a gem, and we are incredibly grateful to have been a part of this wonderful community.With heartfelt thanks,Tara and Steven Burley”
