Free and funded programs

Free VPK hours (Voluntary Prekindergarten)
Florida DCF / Division of Early Learning (CARES provider search), as of Sep 2026.

Taking part in a program does not mean a place is open. Call the provider to ask about current availability.

VPK: who qualifies and how to apply
Who qualifies: A child who resides in Florida and will have attained the age of 4 years on or before 1 September is eligible during that school year or the following one. The eligibility section sets no income requirement. Eligibility ends when the child is admitted to kindergarten, or on reaching age 6 by 1 February.
Cost: The state pays for the VPK programme itself; the family portal describes VPK as a free educational program for 4-year-olds. A school-year programme delivered by a private provider must comprise at least 540 instructional hours. The sources reviewed do not address what a provider may charge for care outside the VPK hours, so ask your provider about any wraparound care.
Places: Being eligible does not guarantee a place. Public schools must admit all eligible children who apply to a summer programme, but school districts may limit the number of students admitted to a school-year programme based on available space.
How to apply: Apply to your early learning coalition through the state's single point of entry, the Early Learning Family Portal. Applicants in Lake County are directed to a separate application system. Apply with Early learning coalitions, under rules set by the State Board of Education (opens in new tab)

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

For 3 years I have trusted Drop Of Love. Before, I was excellent, but since the director changed, I no longer feel confident. When Mrs. Lisa was the director, she managed that center very well and took care of the parents and the children. The new director does not know what she is doing, she is disrespectful, she always has bad attitudes and does not put the minimum effort in taking care of the parents and the children. Several times I have seen her outside the center of her having problems with her parents. She is very conflicted. Before, that center was managed very well by Mrs. Lisa, whom we parents miss so much. My children do not feel comfortable with the new principal and new teachers. They also have a teacher who I have heard from other parents that this teacher hits the children and speaks loudly to them. I loved this daycare but now I don't feel safe. I do not recommend this daycare to anyone. Mrs. Ana should not run that center.

I was skeptical about enrolling my daughter in this daycare center because of the location, not having security cameras and the children ratios per teacher.
But I enrolled her regardless of all that to try it because it had good reviews but in MY personal experience I would not recommend this center because they accidentally were going to give my daughter’s dad a different child who wasn’t our daughter and the teacher insisted that the wrong child was ours and he obviously got mad and requested to have our daughter given immediately. And that is a parent’s worst nightmare because the only thing that went trough our mind was that our 9 month old baby could have been stolen from this daycare since they confused the babies and no one in the staff asked her dad for proof of identification, when I was told that they ask for identification when a child is picked by anyone else who didn’t drop off the child that day.

And I’m not sorry for writing this review even though they did apologize for the situation because we’re talking about children’s life here and it is a very serious mistake that could have gone south very quickly.

And on top of that my daughter arrived that same day starving, because since she didn’t like the mac and cheese they had given for lunch (she is 9 months) well, they offered her some baby food 3 hours later but no milk was given because “she didn’t seem hungry” but once she got home she was crying horribly and had a 6oz bottle, her dinner, dessert and another bottle of milk. So yes, my daughter WAS hungry and no one did anything to help that, when I provide her special formula and ANYTHING she needed.

There is NO excuse to neither of these situations and I’m really disappointed of what we went through. Because believe it or not I’ve had nightmares since that happened and HOW do I trust another daycare with my daughter’s care from now on?
