I've been holding out on writing this review. I wanted to make sure I noted and experienced…read moreeverything first hand. I work in high school education. I develop teachers and curriculum. With that being said, I've always tried to remain objective about preschools. Mostly because I had never found a center that fulfilled my every expectation, until Jolipoli. It seemed too good to be true but when we moved into the neighborhood curiosity got the best of me. I am so happy it did. This center not only walks the walk but also talks the talk. My son was BARELY speaking when I enrolled him. I had already received a referral to have his speech evaluated. As we are on our waitlist for an evaluation I took the tour of jollipoli. Needless to say, we never made it to the evaluation. My little boy is no longer frustrated with his speech. Why? Because he was introduced to the vocabulary needed. He was nurtured. He was paid attention to. His teachers catered to his strengths and have worked on his areas of need. I didn't think that kind of differentiation was possible this early on. Not only is it possible but it is executed beautifully at jollipoli. My son loves going to school everyday. He has bonded with his teachers and the director! The director is SO INVOLVED IN EVERY ASPECT OF THE CENTER. I think that makes the biggest difference of all. It feels like a community. They say It takes a village to raise a child, I am grateful jollipoli is part of our village. My wife and I are beyond grateful to Natalie and my son's teachers. The confidence my baby has is thanks to them. They bring out the best in him every single day. From their curriculum, routines, field-trips, multicultural literacy, community/global awareness, and hands on educational events, jollipoli has no competition for they deserve their own category of unmatched excellence. I wish every parent would be able to experience what we have. No words would ever do it justice. Thank you Jollipoli!

Finding where to leave half of your heart is a difficult decision. I searched high and low for a…read moreplace that seemed like the perfect fit. We put off starting daycare multiple times because we couldn't find a place that was the perfect match. It's been 4 months since my daughter started and I cannot begin to explain how amazing our experience has been. I think it's important to share good experiences with other perspective parents since this is a decision that can be alarmingly scary. My daughter adores this place. The drive up every morning is filled with enthusiastic "escuela, mami???" And she runs to her teacher in joy. She went from no words at 18 months to a budding repertoire of vocabulary that includes colors, shapes and animals. We get daily updates of what she's doing, pictures, videos and information on her sleeping, eating and diaper changes. Additionally, I can watch her on the cameras ! The staff is amazing. They love my Lala and it shows. She has some unconventional allergies and they have been so accommodating and attentive to keeping her safe. She's learned so much in this place with activities that are fun and meaningful. The place is modern and CLEAN!! My daughter, at almost 2 years old, washes her hands better than many adults. The emphasis on cleanliness has meant that although she's gotten small colds due to "new germs" they are nothing compared to the horror stories I've heard from other parents regarding sickness after starting daycare. They are very strict with their health protocols and it is comforting to know they are so adamant on keeping everyone safe. As a mom of a chicken nugget loving toddler, i was worried about my daughter eating at school. However, their menu is great and she eats things at school she would never even touch at home. Another testament to their magic at JolliPolli. If you have any questions, reach out to me on Yelp. I know how hard picking a place is and I want to help!

Mommy of a 15 month old babygirl…read more Let me begin by emphasizing that my husband is extremely hands on with our daughter he doesn't miss a single doctors appointment or activity she does 95% of the time. Education and social development are extremely important to him and I. That being said he doesn't believe in school under the age of 3. That all changed after our tour at KLA with Eileen (not sure if the spelling is correct). We arrived and first impression was amazing. You first have to walk through TWO doors to reach the children's hallway. The staff greets EVERY parent and student by name. The facility is spotless and it seems every corner has items to make your child think. We saw the outdoor space, art room, and classrooms all amazing. The instructors seemed very hands on with every child. Classrooms were setup prior to children returning from recess with the activity they would be performing that day (very organized). And everyone we met was super patient especially Eileen, she answered every single question in a way that did not feel rushed and you could tell she had a great passion for KLA. When the tour ended she even invited us to return for a mommy and me class so we could get a better feel how a child's day at school would go. This is what sealed the deal for my husband. The classroom we observed was interactive, engaging and most importantly felt SAFE. We asked if we could step out for 5 mins to see what it would feel like to leave our child alone with unfamiliar people. We were permitted to observe from a window. Clearly our babygirl cried.. the instructor comforted her and read her a book and the tears were gone within 3 mins. Nothing during our mock trail felt forced or fake it seemed genuine. Parents walking the hallway were smiling, one even told us they love the school for their children. We met with the director and were given prices.. to be honest the monthly fee is expensive compared to other school we have toured. However, when you experience the KLA culture, the staff and community the tuition becomes priceless when our child's development is on the line. She hasn't started and won't till the new school year but so far Eileen has made a profound impression on our family and we have never felt so confident in our decision. At the end of the school year I will review again on the progress our babygirl has made. THE BEST IS YET TO COME :)

She knows the pledge of allegiance, numbers, letters, colors, and is finishing out pre K reading a few words. I know she is safe here and I am sad that she has grown out of the school. I would keep her here if the grades went higher. Pamela and Ayleen are super caring and attentive to any inquiries and called me to update me on my child when the drop off was difficult and emotional. I am so glad this school exists and glad this was my child's first school experience.

I wanted to leave a review for my son's daycare, specifically about the teachers. He's been…read moreenrolled since January 2026 and I couldn't be happier with the level of care and attention. Ms. Tammy has been an absolutely wonderful teacher. She makes me feel completely comfortable leaving Asher in her care, and I have true peace of mind knowing she will follow my preferences and always do what is best for him. Her kindness, patience, and dedication shine through in everything she does. What means the most to me is that she genuinely loves and cares for Asher as if he were her own. I also want to recognize Ms. Mildred, who cares for Asher in the mornings and spends so much time with him as well. She is equally amazing, caring, attentive, and loving. Knowing that both Ms. Tammy and Ms. Mildred are there for my son has made such a positive difference in our daycare experience. As a parent, there is nothing more valuable than feeling confident that your child is safe, loved, and happy. I am incredibly grateful to both of these wonderful teachers and feel so fortunate to have them in Asher's life.

We've had our son at PreTech Academy since he was just 2 years old, and I can confidently say this…read moreschool has been an amazing experience for our family. He has gone through Pre-K2 all the way to VPK, and the growth we've seen is incredible. The teachers are truly nurturing, caring, and very engaging with the kids. They make learning fun while still focusing strongly on academics, which is very important to our family. My son can write his first and last name, is learning how to add and subtract, and is leaving VPK already writing words and understanding letter sounds (which is so important!). He's also doing very well with CVC words and scored highly on the Florida VPK assessments, which really shows how well they prepare the children for kindergarten. The staff in the front office are just as amazing they know not only my child's name, but also his siblings who don't even attend the school. That personal touch means so much. The director is always present, greeting families and knowing parents by name, which creates such a warm and welcoming environment. Another huge plus is how clean everything is. The school does an excellent job maintaining cleanliness, and my child rarely gets sick, which speaks volumes. Overall, the entire staff is warm, caring, and truly invested in the children. We are so grateful for the love, attention, and strong educational foundation our son has received here. Highly recommend!

Over the past few months, I've encountered repeated instances of misinformation, poor…read morecommunication, and a clear unwillingness to take responsibility for avoidable mistakes. When I addressed a billing error (which the school initially confirmed would be added to my tuition), I was sent an email falsely claiming I hadn't paid. When I questioned this, I was met with dismissiveness and conflicting information. I later confirmed -- through the parent group chat -- that I was misled about the nature of the email distribution. Instead of owning the error, the director chose to deflect. Even more concerning, Ms. Rodriguez has attempted to tell parents we are not allowed to discuss issues with the school in our WhatsApp group chat -- a platform completely unaffiliated with the school. This attempt to silence feedback only adds to the feeling that leadership is more focused on controlling perception than actually resolving concerns. After raising my concerns via email, I was also blocked from viewing the school's Instagram Stories -- a move that felt retaliatory and unprofessional. Additionally, despite respectfully requesting that all communication remain in writing, one of the school's owners refused and insisted on a phone call. When I declined for documentation purposes, I was dismissed and never contacted again. Another owner, the Principal of Pinecrest Glades Academy, never responded to my message at all. It also appears that Ms. Rodriguez may be attempting to downplay or hide issues from other families -- potentially due to the fact that her own child attends the school. This presents a troubling conflict of interest, especially when decisions and communication seem more focused on image management than transparency or child well-being. This is not the type of leadership I expect from an educational institution. Parents deserve accountability, open communication, and professionalism -- not censorship, avoidance, and retaliation. I'm sharing this review in the hope that Pre Tech Academy leadership begins to value the trust families place in them.

When It was time for my daughter to go we sent her there for a couple of years (1-3), but decided to move her to my son's school (for convenience only) for prek-4. TERRIBLE DECISION!! She received nowhere near the level of education at her current school, than what she could have received at Bright Futures. We have some friends and family with small children, and when they ask about preschools, I ONLY RECOMMEND Bright Futures. It is a wonderful, nurturing, and well organized school. Your kids will benefit from this experience immensely.

Our kids love it here. They love their teachers, their friends, and unfortunately, at the time I am writing this, they miss their school since COVID-19 shut the county down. However, the director has been quick to respond by providing [truly engaging] virtual learning classes and offering child care for parents in need during this crucial time.

When picking up your kid you must go to the front office and sign the them out. Teachers will not release a kid if you don't have the slip from the front office. Very convenient/accessible location with plenty of spaces to park. Playground is spacious, classroom sizes are decent. Again back to the teachers we had Miss Juany and Miss patty during the day , our little little ones classrooms were 2 doors down from each other so drop off and pick up was easy. For after school care they were with Miss Kiki , also very nice and welcoming. Here is what I didn't like: the food..... Morning and afternoon snack which is included in tuition, not the best snack selection and didn't see milk as part of either snacks. Lunch is not included in the tuition. For us it was this was very difficult bc our kids are used to warm meals. My suggestion: buy a Thermos to store the lunch so that it will stay warm ( eating sandwiches every day can get boring ), and even with the thermos lunch was a mission. Also didn't see milk as part of either morning or afternoon snack. Again my 6 and 4 year old are used to drinking milk in the morning and with the afternoon snack. So I had to pack 2 lunch boxes per kid : one for the snack and one for the lunch. As far as summer activities go there could have been a little more movement. In four weeks of camp not one field trip, and for the price we paid this was not worth it . Again....teachers are great. If you are looking for a place that has good security and has loving caring individuals for your little ones then this is the place. As far as the curriculum goes I can't comment on this because we have only used the facility for summer camp. But From what I hear from the other moms it is good.
