Setting your child up for a bright future starts with providing them with a solid foundation for a lifetime of learning. At Ivybrook Academy Sarasota, we take an innovative approach to preschool and are redefining how parents view early childhood education. Unlike other preschools in Sarasota, we don’t believe in taking a one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Our hybrid curriculum pulls from three popular philosophies to provide the most comprehensive and adaptable experience for our students. Children in our program are encouraged to explore the world around them and we celebrate each child's uniqueness and individuality. We offer half day preschool options for children ages 2-5 featuring 2-day, 3-day or 5-day programs.
For more information or to schedule a tour of our campus, call us at 941-216-5336!
