The staff have always been very pleasant! I also appreciate their attention to safety. The director of the school has personally called me when my son has been hurt, which I appreciate.

CCLC is an excellent school where they teach and take care for the children very well. Both the teachers and the assistants are wonderful. Many names to name, which make my little girl happier every day, Miss. Nalany, Patricia, Jessica, Charlie, Brenda, and Ava. We can't forget the receptionists because every day they welcome us like the first day.
Our Story
Creative Child Learning Centers® was founded with a clear purpose in [insert year]. We understand how important the early years are, and how much parents want more than just childcare. You want a place where your child is known, supported, and guided through meaningful learning experiences.
That is why we built an environment centered around play-based learning, where children can explore, ask questions, and build real understanding through a play-based preschool curriculum. Instead of relying solely on direct instruction or standardized tests, we focus on helping your child feel confident, capable, and excited about learning.
As a parent, you want to know your child is developing in the right way. Research shows that 90% of brain development happens before age five, and according to Harvard University's Center on the Developing Child, early learning experiences shape how children learn, think, and solve problems. Through play-based education, children strengthen the neural connections that support memory, communication, and independence.
As we have grown into a network of trusted Florida preschools, what has stayed the same is our focus on what matters most to families, safety, connection, and real learning. Joining the Endeavor Schools network in [insert year] allowed us to expand while continuing to provide the same level of care and attention parents expect.
We know this is not just about preschool for you. It is about your child's happiness, well-being, and feeling safe, supported, and truly cared for every day.
Our mission is to consistently challenge, nurture, inspire, and support your child's individual growth and development. We do this within a safe, beautiful, enriched learning community that embodies the Montessori values of respect for self, others, and the environment.
We want your child to feel capable in their own body, confident in their ideas, and connected to the people and world around them. When your little one is trusted, guided, and given the right environment, they begin to see themselves as learners, helpers, problem-solvers, and community members.
Our Montessori curriculum is built around hands-on materials, independence, repetition, observation, and meaningful work. Your child will explore practical life, sensorial learning, language, math, science, geography, history, culture, outdoor learning, sustainability, and community care. As Courtney LH Baros, School Leader of our Mayfair Campus, explains, "Montessori education is rooted in respect and trust." That trust shapes the whole classroom. Your child will choose work, repeat lessons, clean up spills, arrange flowers, serve themselves a snack, care for materials, and learn through real responsibility.
What Makes Our Play-Based Preschool Different?
Many parents come to us after feeling uncertain about other childcare or daycare options. They are looking for more than supervision. They are looking for a place where their child will be engaged, supported, and truly understood.
At Creative Child Learning Centers®, the difference is in the experience your child has every day. Our educators take the time to know your child, their personality, their needs, and how they learn best. That means your child is not expected to fit into a system, the system adapts to them.
We focus on how children feel as much as what they learn, because when your child feels safe, seen, and supported, they become more confident, more curious, and more open to learning. That is when real growth happens.
Early Childhood Leadership & Staff
One of the biggest concerns parents have is who will be caring for their child. At Creative Child Learning Centers®, you can feel confident knowing your child is supported by experienced, qualified educators who truly care. Our teachers are trained in early childhood education, holding certifications from CDA to advanced degrees, and receive ongoing training in early learning, CPR, and First Aid. Behind every classroom is a team that understands what your child needs to feel safe, confident, and ready to learn.
