About
Kids Discovery offers activities such as playing musical chairs as part of its daily programming. The program operates with secured entrances that use restricted access and live-view, closed circuit cameras that are monitored by staff.
• Ages: 0–12 years old
• Schedule: M–F, 6:30 am – 6:00 pm
Kids Discovery requires all staff to be trained in infant, child, and adult CPR and First Aid, and all caregivers must complete 10 in-service hours of professional development every calendar year. The program has three separate playgrounds for specific age groups and maintains a separate “Boo-Boo Room” for ill children waiting for pickup. Rooms and toys are rigorously and regularly sanitized, and meals and snacks meet USDA guidelines. Emergency and inclement weather preparedness plans are in place, and the program is COR Advantage-certified to provide observation-based skills assessments to support children being ready for their next levels and stages. The stated mission is that it takes a team to grow a child into adulthood, that walking and exploring the early years together will pave the way toward success in school and in life, and that every child deserves caring adults, opportunities to learn, safe environments, and a sense of belonging. The program notes that it uses more than 20 years of experience to provide individualized learning, social-emotional support, and imaginative programming and play for every child, including individualized learning approaches to bring forth each child’s unique talents and traits.
Kids Discovery describes community involvement that includes support for Relay for Life, The Ronald McDonald House, and appreciation efforts for essential healthcare employees and military personnel, with families, staff, and children taking part. One parent testimonial from a Gulf Breeze parent states that both a four-year-old and an 18-month-old attend, that the family transferred the younger child from another daycare, that the teachers truly care about the children and the parents, that the teachers are serious about cleanliness and health, and that this parent would not send their children anywhere else but Kids Discovery.
