About
Kids Discovery offers programming for Infants, Toddlers, Twos, Preschool, Voluntary Pre-K, Elementary-Aged Before- and After-School, and Summer Camp options.

• Ages: 0–12 years old
• Schedule: M–F, 6:30 am – 6:00 pm
Kids Discovery has more than 20 years of experience. The program’s mission states that it focuses on caring adults, opportunities to learn, safe environments, a sense of belonging, learning through play, a positive approach, praise, and making learning a happy, rewarding experience for both child and teacher.
All staff are required to be trained in infant, child, and adult CPR and First Aid. All teachers are trained to recognize each child’s developmental progress through age-appropriate milestones. Initial employment and continuing education requirements include health, safety, nutrition, trauma, and other topics, and all caregivers must complete 10 in-service hours of professional development every calendar year in topics relevant to their positions. Employees may take part in unlimited training opportunities.
Entrances are secured with restricted access, and live-view, closed circuit cameras are monitored by staff. A separate “Boo-Boo Room” is used for ill children waiting for pickup. Three separate playgrounds are available for specific age groups. Emergency and inclement weather preparedness plans are in place.
Kids Discovery is COR Advantage-certified to provide observation-based skills assessments to support children being ready for their next levels and stages, and it operates under DCF License Number: C01OK0159. Community involvement includes activities such as Relay for Life, The Ronald McDonald House, and appreciation efforts for essential healthcare employees and military personnel. One Gulf Breeze parent reports that both a four-year-old and an 18-month-old attend, that the teachers care about the children and parents, that cleanliness and health are taken very seriously, and that this parent would not send their children anywhere else but Kids Discovery.
