Early Start Learning Center was  founded in 1991 by  Juana Fernandez  (Fina) in a small  center on Miller  Drive and operated  it very successfully,  so much so that in  2001 Early Start  moved to a much  larger and brand new building in the present location. Fina has over twenty years of experience caring and educating children. Her personal touch makes our school the best option for your child's education. We offer the best education and care for your children in the Miami area. We are a center that takes pride in our family enviroment, where everybody is treated with respect and communication is  priority.
We have a 10,500 square feet purpose built facility, on four beautiful  acres of grass. Your children will play outdoors on grass in a natural setting. We have a dedicated dining room, the children do not eat in the classrooms, so our classrooms are the cleanest in town. Come visit us!.  [LEARN MORE]

What parents say about us:

" Early Start Learning Center has not only been  my choice for my boys Jonathan and Jordan but my niece(s) and nephew as well. I can not only say what a great academic experience my children had while they were there with you, but the love and attention I was given by the teachers and staff was priceless. As I visited yesterday, it was refreshing to see how happy the current children looked, and how all the teachers received me and asked about my boys.
Both my boys are doing extremely well with their academics, Jonathan is in the gifted program and Jordan is doing extremely well (being tested for gifted in the latter part of the year). I attribute their success to the "Early Start" of their education. Thank you for all the love, attention, support and learning experience you provide to both your students and all the parents"

  At Early Start Learning Center we provide educational child care in a nurturing, safe and stimulating enviroment. We will provide your child with the tools needed  to be successful in all aspects of their lives.

We useThe Creative Curriculum (TCC) as our educational framework for all of our age groups (Infants - Four-year olds, including VPK). TCC translates child development theory and research into best practice, clearly defining the teacher’s vital role in connecting content, teaching, and learning for children. It emphasizes the five components of teaching very young children effectively: how children develop and learn, the learning environment, what children learn, caring and teaching, and partnering with families.

Our Three- and Four-Year Olds classrooms (including VPK) also use The Scholastic Early Childhood Program (SECP) as a supplement to ensure that our little learners develop the early learning skills and experiences critical for their future success in school. Through purposeful play as well as explicit instruction, the SECP provides a strong foundation in early literacy, language, math, and science skills while encouraging personal and social development.
