Business Member Spotlight: Lil Explorers Kissimmee Inc.

Lil’ Explorers Kissimmee, Inc. is a sister school to the first Lil’ Explorers location in St. Cloud, Florida. Lil’ Explorers has been in business for 20 plus-years and have had the pleasure of interacting with so many different families, providing early childcare for young children, watching young children strive through the world of childcare years and seeing many children move through their elementary years. Having an establishment to provide early childcare for children is very important. Many studies have shown the importance of children attending childcare, and that the experience has a positive impact when a child starts kindergarten. Receiving early childcare from a young age is critical for young children, and Lil’ Explorers strives to make sure that children receive the proper education needs.  Health and safety play a huge role as well.

Lil’ Explorers Kissimmee Inc. offers childcare from Monday through Friday, 6:00 am to 6:00 pm.  All staff are certified by the state with the required documentation for a childcare center.  Lil’ Explorers provides three healthy meals a day:  breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack. The center participates in the Florida Food Program, and menus are certified by the state and posted for parents.  Each classroom uses an approved curriculum called Frog Street, which coordinates with the daily schedule.  The center also offers family engagement activities throughout the year.
