“My oldest child went to this preschool since he was 2 years old until he was ready for kindergarten and we loved it! So much so that our second Son also went since he was 1 year old up until kindergarten time as well! The director is very professional, loving and caring all the way around as well as staff for each individual classroom. 100% recommend this preschool, am already planning on enrolling my 3rd baby boy soon.??”
“We’ve been with The Goddard School for 3 years now, and we absolutely love this school! ❤️ We truly recommend it to any family looking for a caring, safe, and amazing learning environment for their child.
Our son Leo started there when he was just 1 year old, and we have had nothing but a fabulous experience ever since. Ms. Jennifer, the owner, Ms. Kira, the director of the school, and all of the teachers and staff have been so loving, supportive, and dedicated throughout these years.
We are so grateful for all the care, patience, and memories they’ve given our son. One of the best schools/daycares in the area for sure! ?”

“Absolutely loved every year my son spent at Smarty Pants. This is a family owned and operated business. When I say they care, they truly do. Leaving my son with them was easy. He ran into their arms immediately. When he left for elementary school he was well advanced and has continued to be throughout his education. I can't say enough about this family and the business they pour their hearts into. I will be forever grateful!”

“My daughter has had such a great experience at La Petite! The staff is caring, patient, and always makes me feel comfortable leaving her there. The daycare is clean, organized, and communicative, which means so much as a parent.
Mrs. Kathy and Ms. Ally have made such a huge impact on my daughter, both with her curriculum and everyday tasks. They always make sure to properly communicate anything necessary at pick up, and I really appreciate how attentive and involved they are. Ever since moving to this location, my daughter is actually excited for school and genuinely loves everyone there. She comes home happy, learning new things, and excited to go back every day. So thankful for the teachers and staff here ?”

“Highly recommend Sunny daze for your children!!!! I have one of my daughters in daycare and my other daughter in the VPK program here and our experience is nothing short of AMAZING!!! Donna is a pleasure to speak to and I know my children are safe and well cared for by all her staff. I’m from NY and everyone always raves about NY education I can honestly say sunny daze has changed my mind, FL education is far better than where we lived in NY. My daughters have both flourished here! They are learning new things everyday and continue to grow. They have a well structured, safe environment at sunny daze. I’m so happy to have my children here and if you’re contemplating sending your child to another daycare/VPK or sunny daze…. I encourage you to choose sunny daze !! If I could give more than 5 stars I would that’s how pleased I am with my children’s growth, development, and education at sunny daze. Shout out to Donna and all her staff for their time, love, and care for my children!”
“There are plenty of daycares in Lakewood Ranch to choose from, but from what I have experienced with from both my children, there is nothing like Discovery Point! From the administrative staff to the child care staff to the chef, they care for my kids and have a true passion for seeing the next generation grow. I can’t thank everyone enough for taking such great care of my babies and keeping them safe! ?”

“Sandman Academy fits the needs of all three of my kids. Whether it be before and after care, summer day care, or covering for random days off of school. Sandman is a tight-knit daycare, family owned and operated. Mr. Curt is kind, friendly, and helpful. Ms. Summer is his daughter and she is so kind and friendly. Ms. Shantell puts her heart and soul into her VPKers. All in all, I’ve NEVER had an issue with the daycare and my kids love it and come home happy and with smiles on their faces. Sandman is not a traditional facility, it’s in a house that’s been converted, and I like that for my kids. 5/5 I recommend. It’s not for everyone, it’s definitely for my family. THANK YOU, SANDMAN! You’ve been a lifesaver.”

“I had my daughter at FFK for the first 5 years of her life. They are amazing people and love the kids they care for. My daughter loved her teachers and they always pushed her to do her best and to be the best she can be.”
“I absolutely LOVE KidsZone Preschool. The owner Ms. Sam treats ALL children and staff with RESPECT, makes sure feels loved, and builds personal bonds with the children and staff. She’s very caring, loving and supportive of EVERYONE. Within 5 minutes of just being in her presence you’ll feel like a different person. Ms. San shows true GENUINE love despite your past. I admire how she makes you want to be and do better with ANYTHING you do no matter what it is. What I adore the MOST is her BEAUTIFUL spirit and the way she speaks life refilling your broken soul. Whatever you’ve done in the past or who you used to be does NOT that’s who you are because there’s ALWAYS room to aim HIGHER and become the BEST version of the individual you’re DESTINED to be. Thank You Cassandra Brown for being mindful of sensitive topics and having such a nurturing spirit ♥️”
“We have had such a wonderful experience with this daycare. The staff is incredibly kind, caring, and welcoming, and it’s clear they genuinely care about the children and their families.
My son has had a challenging couple of months behavior-wise, and instead of making us feel discouraged, the teachers and staff have been so supportive every step of the way. They have worked closely with us to help understand what he needs to be successful, provided helpful tools and strategies for us to use at home, and consistently communicated with us throughout the process.
It truly feels like they are part of our team, and I am so grateful for the patience, compassion, and dedication they have shown. Knowing my son is surrounded by people who want to see him thrive gives me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a caring and supportive environment for their child. ❤️”

“We love Love Comes First. Our son has been here for a year and a half now. I knew the owner Miss Colleen before I brought my son. She seems super on top of things. I figured she would be the same about her daycare and the kids. She’s great!
The daycare is small and each adult knows every child.
We’re very happy.”
“I can't say enough good things about Kids on the Rock! My wife and I were hesitant about putting our first born in daycare, but the staff at Kids on the Rock were so inviting and supportive during the whole process. We have been blessed with two of the best teachers there (as I am sure the rest of the staff are just as amazing) that have been instrumental in the development of our son. He has grown so much academically, socially, developmentally, and spiritually. The staff there are intentional on raising positive and kind children for the community. They take the time to get to know the children, their needs, and find ways to support them. Additionally, they have partnerships with organizations in the community for early interventions and supports, such as OT and Speech. It is clear they value strong relationships with community services, as their staff are knowledgeable of the resources at hand to share with family members.
To add on, they keep your children's health and safety at the forefront. Their staff are attentive to the medical needs of our son- having knowledge of pre-existing conditions and being attentive to his needs.
Again, I can not say enough good things about Kids on the Rock. They have been a blessing for us as a family and we hope to send the rest of our family here in the near future. I would recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding childcare. Kids on the Rock will always be our first choice.
Thank you, Kids on the Rock, for being such an important piece of our family's growth!”
