Serving the Jacksonville Beach community since 1995, this is a wonderful pre K Program for…read moreparishioners and non parishioners families alike. The Early Learning Center provides a warm, Christ-centered learning environment. The program is all about the team effort of parent, child, teacher & ELC! Children develop at their own pace by establishing positive attitudes about themselves, school, and the world around them. I love the low child to staff ratio -- Each classroom is staffed with a teacher and 2 teaching assistants.

If you're cool with blatant discrimination, this is the school for you!!…read more In January of 2016, I inquired about after school care for my daughter. I was told there was availability and that I should come by and tour the school and pick up an application. Sweet! Oh until I mentioned that my daughter was in a wheelchair. ::record screeeeeech:: Then I was told there was actually a small wait list....it must have slipped the front office administrator's mind...but hey it happens. So we get on the wait list and call to check in from time to time only to be told "there's just one more child ahead of her" time and time again. After several months we talk directly with the owner and straight up ask her if there's an issue with my child being admitted because she's in a wheelchair. She assured us this was absolutely not the case and our child would be the very next one admitted once an opening became available. So TWO YEARS (because apparently this is the Harvard of after school care) go by and within that time we managed to find another place for her until that spot opens up. We actually let it go for a while since we found a nice program that had no issue with meeting her needs, and ultimately that's what we were looking for, but kept her on the list just in case. However today we randomly saw the owner again and asked her about it. She ACTUALLY said no child has been admitted in the LAST TWO YEARS. Like those words actually came out of her mouth. I don't know about you, but that sounds awfully suspicious. I'm bringing this up now in the hopes that they will take a look at themselves and ask what they are getting out of denying kids with disabilities. That and so they can thoroughly brush up on the rules and regulations of the ADA Act. Just in case they need a resource, here is a link to show just how illegally discriminatory they are. https://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm We are also in the process of working with ADA advocates in regards to this so you can also ask them any questions you may have once they contact you. Have a blessed day. I mean that as sarcastically as possible.

We've been bringing our child to the school that's run by this church, and we couldn't be happier…read morewith our experience. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and supported, even though English isn't our first language. Miss Marsha, our child's teacher, is absolutely wonderful--so kind, patient, and truly caring. She treats our child with such warmth and attention, and we see how much our child enjoys being in her class. It's clear that she really loves what she does. We spent a long time looking for the right place, and we're so glad we found this one. The church building itself is simple and modern, surrounded by trees and open space, which adds to the peaceful atmosphere. We've also attended a few Sunday services here. While we usually go to a Slavic church, this one has such a warm and homey feeling. Everyone we've met has been friendly and genuinely joyful--it's hard not to feel uplifted when you're here. Even though we can't always be involved as much as we'd like because of the language barrier, this church has made us feel included and welcomed. It's a beautiful community, and we're really grateful to be a small part of it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, family-oriented environment--whether for school or for worship. And if you happen to meet Miss Marsha, tell her we said thank you!

I hate to have to make this review but I would want to know these things as a parent. My daughter…read morestarted at this location when she was only 2 months old. We stayed until she was almost 3 but were already planning to leave due to high staff turnover, staff not helping us parents with potty training (using changing tables and diapers while we use the potty and underwear at home for example), and dirty bathrooms. I had let the director know we would be withdrawing. The day I did this, the unthinkable happened. The last straw and the day I took my child out for good was last week when I arrived to pick up my child (2 years old) and I found her ALONE IN A CLASSROOM. No adult anywhere nearby (none in the front or adjacent classrooms as all the classes were outside). Another parent witnessed this. My daughter told me "my friends left me" then said "a monster was going to get me" when I asked her what happened before she was left. I walked outside and found her class and teacher (as well as an ex teacher who was there visiting?) . When I confronted her teacher there was automatic lies about some person who wasn't even there and shouldn't have been alone with my child regardless. A bunch of excuses. The director was apologetic but the next day stated "she was only alone for 3 minutes" which even if that was true, was only because I showed up. I did report this center to the state and to corporate. This center was good once upon a time but needs major help. We will never use this center again.
