About Blue Harbor Preschool Academy
At Blue Harbor Preschool Academy, we are dedicated to creating a secure and nurturing environment where each child can explore their unique talents and strengths. We believe that every child has the potential to learn and grow, and we are committed to supporting their development in every way possible.
Our History
Formerly known as Sunflower Educare Center, our institution has been a cornerstone of the Port Saint Lucie community for over two decades. In 2023, we embarked on an exciting new chapter by revitalizing the entire facility from top to bottom, blending our rich history with modern advancements to better serve our families.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide childcare that meets the needs of each child and family in a safe, developmentally appropriate educational environment. We focus on the individual needs of each child, offering a quality, reliable, and safe childcare experience.
Our Philosophy
We encourage children to discover their individual strengths and unique talents. Learning is best accomplished in a place that is emotionally secure, physically safe, and fun. Our approach emphasizes hands-on exploration and play-based activities, fostering both academic and social-emotional growth.
