I love this school it has great learning abilities for young children. They learn through play stories and much more! You need to come an check it out.

I sent my twin daughters there for VPK 2011-12 program. It was so much more than I expected. I am amazed how much my girls have learned. They are more than kindergarten ready. The staff is wonderful! They are so in touch with each individual child. I was so impressed with just not the academic part but things like planting a vegetable garden or going on an explore walk for dino bones cuz that's what they were learning that week. Can't say enough! Love the program. Ms Tanya, you made their first experience more than I could have ever asked. Thank you! Ms Brenda, your new school is lucky to have you! Thank you! 'A' and 'I' will miss you.

I tell everyone about the Academy for Early Learning. Ive got to know and love the staff there. They are caring and understanding. I feel very confident that my child is learning and being loved.

I would not reccomend this place for anyone to take thier children. If you do I would reccomend you look into the way things are run and if you have a gut feeling that something is off I would not ignore it! As a mother of 2 I understand accidents happen but as an adult I expect people to act responsibly....my child ended up with permanent damage in result of neglect in this facility and when I inquired with questions so that I could help my child by giving doctors important information needed from the facilty they would not help me nor would they then acknowledge the incident happend. Good thing I had a copy of the accident report and after 6 months of care my child has begun to improve. They never contacted me to see if he was ok. I was very disappointed and now know why I saw so many unhappy parents pull thier children out of this facilty. I would just be sure you are activly involved if your child is under thier care. If I could give it zero star rating I would.

I highly recommend the Academy; A Fl gold seal of excellence holder, & the very first program in Sarasota county to achieve national accreditation by the National Assoc. for the Ed, of Young Children (the gold standard of approval according to Parenting Magazine and experts in the field of early childhood). An achievement reached by less than 6% of licensed centers in the whole country! The owner has complete her masters program in preschool education and her dedication is evident in every aspect of the high quality program. Historically 30% of the graduates have been admitted into the gifted program at their designated public school by age 7. The space is huge, bright and beautiful! The playground is amazing. The staff, best in class! A nationally accredited program is the only real choice for your child's early learning and quality care! Come see for yourself, there is nothing like it. There is an Academy in Port Charlotte and N. Venice as well.

I went to look at this place and could not leave fast enough. Two kids were crying on the swings and the teachers ignored them. The floors looked very dirty and there was a cd player plugged into an electrical socket within reach of the 1yr old children in that room. There is no security and anyone can walk in the door and through out the building.

I stopped by to check this place out and couldn't leave fast enough. Looked dirty to me compared to the other centers I visited. 2 kids were crying on the swings and were ignored by the teachers. Anyone could walk in the door and through out the center unaccompanied.
