Schools in New Port Richey, FL

“This by far has one of the best people working in the center I don’t have much experience with daycare as we come from a family who didn’t believe in setting our children or grandchildren to daycare when my granddaughter Juliana attended the other storybook school house. We were so apprehensive, but she has learned so much and upon transitioning to this school on grand Boulevard, we could be more pleased. They have a lot of patience with her as she is extremely sassy at times and they give her the discipline in a loving correcting way, and they give her praise when she does well Miss Harold happens to be an extremely lovely person so therefore the teacher is that she does hire to work there have the same moral and capability of dealing with children as she does, there’s not enough good things that I can say about this place I wish I can just give it a 10 star, but I am super happy with the way that they love and take care of my granddaughter Juliana”

“Our family absolutely loves Starfish Scholars! Both of our daughters, Alice and Olivia, attend this daycare, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience.

The teachers are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to each child’s growth and happiness. We always feel confident knowing our girls are in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment.
The staff is always welcoming, communicative, and genuinely cares about the children. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing place for our daughters.

We highly recommend Starfish Scholars to any family looking for a wonderful daycare!”

“My daughter attends the 3K program here and unfortunately we have to unenroll her for 4K so her and her brother can attend the same elementary school. I’m so sad that she’s leaving. Every single staff member and teacher are amazing. They all love and care for each child and it shows. My daughter would come home and tell us all the things she learned…like photosynthesis (she’s 4 and explained it perfectly!), all her colors in Spanish (sung in a song which she sings ALL THE TIME 😂) and so many other educational tidbits. Seriously impressed. Her teachers Miss Laila and Miss Hailey will be truly missed as well as the Director who is always at the front - she’s so kind and pleasant to speak with. Please don’t think twice about enrolling your child here!”

We have seen tremendous growth in his academic foundation, social skills, and overall engagement in activities. We are incredibly grateful to the dedicated teaching staff for their exceptional care and for playing such an integral role in his development. LongLeaf Learning Center is a fantastic, family-friendly facility in the Longleaf area, and we highly recommend it to any parent seeking quality childcare.”

Everyone is so nice and patient with my son and since he has started he has progressed so much. Shout out to his teacher Ms. Brittany you are doing the lords work. I cant thank you guys enough we were so lucky to find this place! Highly recommend!”

“One of the toughest decisions a Mother can make is deciding IF and WHERE they would trust their child being taken care of. I made the choice to put my faith into Solid Step first and foremost , solely because of Mrs. Mary Ann and what a truly phenomenal human she is. My nephew whom is now soon to be 16, began Solid Step at age 1 and graduated VPK.

I now also have a soon to be graduate of VPK who also began at age 1 when I decided to go back to school to pursue a Nursing Career.

The comfort that I feel as a Mother and the peace of mind that it brings to me every single morning when I drop my child off to Solid Step is something money CANNOT buy.

I am not the easiest nor softest Mother to deal with when it comes to my child. However, I will say genuinely, and purely with full confidence, that Mrs. Sarah Johnson has been such a complete blessing to both of my son and I's lives.

Not only does Mrs. Sarah build strong relationships with students by showing genuine interest in their lives, she takes it 5 steps above. My child had the pleasure of being in the 2 year old room for the second half of the year with Mrs. Sarah and is now on his way to graduating VPK with her.

Mrs. Sarah creates an inclusive classroom where every student feels valued and respected. She provides constructive feedback that encourages growth and improvement. Mrs. Sarah also celebrates EVERY student and their achievements, both big and small, to boost morale while modeling positive behavior's and attitudes to inspire ALL students to do the same.

Her teaching style incorporates special privileges, for example; Line leader privileges. She shows class recognition, she uses tangible rewards, and token systems, verbal praise, YOU NAME IT. Her passion for teaching is admirable and I give so much of my respect not only as a Human but as Mother to Mrs. Sarah Johnson for all that she does and for showing up for our children every single day of the week.

WE LOVE MRS. SARAH!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR SIMPLY BEING YOU!!!!!”

“We moved to O2B New Port Richey almost two years ago now and couldn’t be any happier with that decision! My kids have grown so much and come home every day happy and with something new they learned to share with me. When initially touring the school, every question I had was answered thoughtfully. If I ever need to contact the school or have a question, it’s answered right away and I appreciate that so much. The school/admins communicate with me throughout the day as needed or when there is something I need to know; there are never any surprises. I love getting pictures emailed to me from the app as well. Highly recommend this school if you are looking. We love each teacher both of our kids have had in our years here.”
