Why did you start your business?

Having both worked in the childhood education field, we saw the dire need for a quality early learning program that will prepare our children for the rigorous curriculum and assessment that they will encounter during their school years.

Is there anything unique about your business that makes it different from the competition?

All of our staff are certified teachers with the state of Florida and credentialed with the Department of Children and Families. We encourage our children to learn at their own pace and to strive to meet their full potential. We are curriculum-based and we provide both formal and informal assessments on a regular basis. Our goal is to balance learning with fun. License is pending.

What challenges do you face in business?

It is challenging to find additional staff who are as dedicated to the education and well-being of our children as we are. We hold very high standards for our staff as well as our children.

What do you like about your business?

Every teacher and parent knows the incredible feeling you and the child share when the child masters a concept or accomplishes a new task. A child's performance during the first few years of school can literally "make or break" that child's future schooling, career and life. Our greatest achievement will come 15 to 20 years from now when our toddlers and preschoolers graduate from college with honors and become successful members of the community.
