Jacksonville Child Care Programs
Bright Baby: Infants
Our infant program accepts children beginning at 6 weeks. We give your baby the love and attention they deserve through interactive experiences developing mind and body alike. The curriculum includes one-on-one activities like sign-language, puppets, music, books and even yoga.
Smart Steps: Infants + Toddlers
We channel the natural curiosity of toddlers into a higher level of understanding through experiences with blocks, music, creative play and more - all promoting positive social interaction and language acquisition!
Ready-2-Learn: Toddlers + Twos
Our curriculum for children in the toddlers and twos class fosters the critical relationship building that occurs at this age, supporting intellectual and social development. Teachers emphasize daily routines and social interaction through family-style meals and other small group activities.
Pre-Kindergarten Prep Academy: Preschool
Our literacy-rich environment prepares your child for their first day of school. Classrooms are divided into learning centers, encouraging your child to learn new skills through self-selected, hands-on activities.
Kindergarten Prep Academy: Pre-K
Focused on preparing your children to begin Kindergarten the next year, our Pre-K classrooms focus on math, literacy, science and communication skills. Our teachers assess each child’s development throughout the year, to help guide planning, teaching, and partnerships with parents.

About
Welcome to our school! My name is Michelle Allen and I am the center director. I have worked in early childhood education for over 15 years teaching in the public school system and military installations. Human development and education are my passion and being able to surround myself with individuals of all backgrounds give me a better understanding of the inner works of our community and how I can better serve them as a neighbor, friend, or leader.
As a Director at Childcare Network, my goal is to create a school that is happy, safe, encouraging, supportive, and a continuous learning environment. I am excited to build new relationships with each of you, as well as get to know every single child in the building! I want you to feel like you are dropping your child off at a second home, and you can rely on us to ensure your child thrives in a loving, educational space. We provide an open door of communication in which families will feel a part of our school community, as we strive for excellence in everyday services.
