I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Imagination Island. My child is thrilled to go every day and the entire staff is fantastic. I have had very minimal concerns in the year my son has been there regarding his care. However, each time I have raised a concern, everyone has really responded in addressing them, and they have taken proactive approaches to alleviate any concern I may have had.
- Lauren BI am so glad we found Imagination Island. We visited several other daycare/schools and found Imagination Island far better in every way. Lisa and her staff are very organized and caring for the children and parents. Our son, who is 3 1/2 now, has been in school for over 2 years and is happy to go every day. We love the teacher child ratio, the daily reports we get by e-mail, the photos we get daily and the love our son has for his teachers. He loves to play outside in the play area and it is very safe for him. Every time we pick him up the children are in organized play or sitting at the table having snack. He has learned so much and I can’t wait to see how he grows this school year. I am so glad we found a loving, safe place for our son to learn and play without us having to worry about him. Thanks Imagination Island!!!
- Charles MMy two daughters love Imagination Island, which means that I love it too. My work in child protective services has made me somewhat overprotective of my own children and it is reassuring to know that they will be safe and happy each morning when I drop them off. I look forward to each new email which updates me on the daily activities of my girls. The facility is very clean and sanitary. I do have to pack lunches daily for my children which has been quite an adventure, as I am learning to be domestic! The teachers and Mrs. Lisa are always very welcoming to me, my husband, and our children. I definitely would recommend Imagination Island to anyone seeking a place for their child!
- Ashley PI love this preschool. When I pick up/ drop off my daughter she is always doing some sort of activity where the teachers are ACTUALLY interacting with the kiddos. She is 2, and that is a tough crowd to please in a ratio of 11:1. I always see 2 teachers working together consistently. Nothing is more overwhelming to a parent to see the room being ran solo, there is no way you can say thats easy on them. There is always someone in the front office to greet you too. They are very accommodating and responsive to any requests and concerns. My daughter loves this place and so do her parents.
- Taylor BWith a couple of very bad daycare experiences, Imagination Island has been a breathe of fresh air. I appreciate the cleanliness and spaciousness which allows for a safe environment for my precious baby boy. Something unique – they intentionally limit the toys in each room. This encourages more interaction between the care providers and children which can be seen in their quick development. Also, I LOVE the daily pictures and videos. I am capturing so many sweet moments that I would have missed otherwise.
This school is a gem.
- Melissa SMy wife had heard wonderful things about the owners of Imagination Island, so we had decided to give them a try with our 1-year old. They are excellent! Our son is very happy when he goes there. We enjoy how they take pictures throughout the day of our son and e-mail them to us to see how he is doing.
The staff is very friendly, and we highly recommend Imagination Island for other parents!
- Jamie OIf you are looking for a preschool in Fleming Island, you will not find one better than Imagination Island. Great teachers and amazing facility!
- Abby HI’m so happy for Lisa now that she has opened her own preschool in Fleming Island! I first met Lisa Greene when she was the Director at Goddard School when they first opened near Mayo Clinic. From the first open house through the day she left to open Imagination Island of Fleming Island, my daughter, wife and I loved everything Lisa did for the school and for our daughter. Before we left each day, our daughter would say “I have to say bye to Lisa!” and then run and give her a hug.
I was sad to see Lisa leaving our school but I’m very happy that she has found a great opportunity to open her own Fleming Island school at Imagination Island of Fleming Island. I’ve been there to see it and it’s an awesome school. As I said to Lisa when I visited, my wife and I choose based on the quality of ownership, managers and teachers. With this in mind, I’m sure Imagination Island of Fleming Island will be a great success.
- Andre LWe love Imagination Island!
The school is super clean, bright and well equipped.
Even better than that, our son has wonderful teachers who engage him and present him with learning challenges that have him starting to read sight words, writing his name with ease and looking forward to what each day will bring.
A mommy-perk is getting pictures and videos of him during the day when his teachers catch a special moment.
The best part is knowing while he is genuinely cared for while at school by Lisa and the whole staff.
My son said it best shortly after moving to Imagination Island from another school “Mommy, I’m so proud of you for finding my new school”
Imagination Island has been the biggest blessing to our family! As a mom who was very skeptical of daycare and very nervous about leaving my child, Lisa and Imagination Island have far exceeded my expectations. They truly love my child and he is thrilled to go to “school” every day. I always tell people, this is the “Cadillac of Daycares”. The cleanliness and state of the art technology are unmatched. From the security system, to the tadpoles system they use to send me photos of my little guy all day long, there is really nothing like it out there! You won’t be disappointed!!
- Taylor KLisa and Richard Greene have brought Fleming Island parents a dream come true! Any parent who wants a safe, loving, and educational environment for their children- look no further. Their true devotion to early childhood education and development shows in all aspects of this school. The teachers are amazing! Everyone is so warm and kind and truly wants the best for every child who enters their door. My son is almost 2 and is going through the typical phase where he never wants to leave his parent’s side…. except when it’s time for school! He loves his school! He loves his teachers and is always excited for his school day to begin. I can’t thank everyone at Imagination Island enough for all the hard work they do to make sure my child has a memorable and fun day every day of the week.
You will not regret the decision of placing your child in this great school!
- Ashley OI would highly recommend Imagination Island. The center is clean and well maintained and the staff is caring and knowledgeable. The owners are at the center daily. They are friendly, taking time to say hello and call me by my name. My husband and I greatly enjoy receiving emailed photos of our daughter during the day.
- Julie WImagination Island can be summed up in one word…AMAZING! We moved to Florida about a year and a half ago and for the first time we did not have family to help us with our daughter and that made it that much more important for her to be in a place where we knew she was learning, being loved, and having fun. I didn’t want her to be dropped off and just “watched.” My husband initially went and toured Imagination Island, and he was sold. He said, “This is where Sadie should be going to school!” I was on board as soon as I met with Lisa. Her dedication and passion for education is apparent in every single aspect of the school. Sadie has learned so much in the short time that she has been attending school here. Everyday we receive emails with pictures and a summary of her day. She loves to go to school to see her teachers and friends. The teachers, Lisa, and Richie have become family to us.
I recommend stopping by Imagination Island, meet with Lisa, see the facility, and meet with the teachers. You’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner!
- Tori FImagination Island truly sets the bar for what a childcare center/preschool should be. This isn’t “just a daycare”…it’s a learning center where children are not only taught by knowledgable, certified staff, but are loved and appreciated at the same time. The owners, Richie & Lisa Green, are on-site every day, and have an obvious passion for what they do. They have a true love for children, and they treat every child like they are part of their own family. My 4 y/o son can’t wait to get there every morning, and I have to pry him away at the end of the day! He has been attending Imagination Island since the day the doors opened, and he’s enjoyed every minute of it. He has learned so much, and adores his teachers. They are patient, kind, and caring, and they take the time to truly get to know each individual child – their needs, their interests, their personality traits & quirks. It’s truly “worry free child care”…I am able to go off to work every day with the peace of mind that my child is happy, loved, and well taken care of. What more could a parent ask for???
- Michelle SWe love Imagination Island. Our child loves coming to school and the teachers and staff are wonderful. They are very courtesy and professional. I am able to come to them with questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Imagination Island.
- Jennifer GMy granddaughter attends Imagination Island and absolutely loves it. She is learning so much! I look forward to hearing her new Spanish word & seeing the sign language she learns. It is fun for her to teach me the new yoga pose each week. The highlight of my day is receiving pictures of her so I can see what she is doing. The staff is warm and welcoming each time we enter the door. I am so glad we discovered Imagination Island!
- Tammy RWe have been with Imagination Island since they opened and both of my children love every day with them more than the last. It is a good feeling as a parent to have my children smile every day when I drop them off and pick them up. The daily updates we receive from the staff are very reassuring and brighten my day every time they come through their dedicated app. Not only do my children love attending the daycare, but I appreciate the level to which they educate my 3 year old and my 18 month old. I would highly recommend Imagination Island to any parent!!
- Brad KThis was the first school that my son ever attended and they made the transition very smooth and easy. The teachers were very caring and attentive and I LOVED getting pictures and a daily report each day. I felt very connected to what my son was doing and how he was growing. His language really increased during his time at school which was wonderful to see. I would recommend this preschool/daycare to anyone who is nervous about leaving their son or daughter for the first time, or anyone who wants to feel involved in their child’s experience at school.
- Elissa SWhen it came time to look for a school for my daughter, my first child going to school, I toured various schools and as soon as I toured Imagination Island before the tour was even over (tour was given by the director Ms. Lisa which I think it is very important that she does a one on one tour with the parents) I knew this was the school I wanted my daughter to attend. Almost a whole school year in and my opinion about Imagination Island has not only not changed but surpassed my expectations. As for the teachers I could not have asked for better teachers to be my daughters first teachers and caretakers ever aside from me. They put so much time and effort into teaching and making it a fun and special experience and truly care for and love the kids. The school looks great and is a safe and clean environment. The daily reports, pictures and videos are an added bonus to an already amazing school! My other two younger sons will most def be attending Imagination Island when their time to go to pre-k comes. Def recommend Imagination Island!
- Arturo and Melissa AWe have had 2 daughters who have attended/graduated from Imagination Island. From our very first tour, we knew this was the place for us. Clean, friendly and most importantly, safe. The Tadpoles app was the cherry on top, as every day you get multiple pictures of what your child is learning and doing.
- Melissa KMy husband and I love receiving the daily photo’s and reports of our son. It definitely makes us feel connected to what he is experiencing throughout the day. Putting our first child into someone else’s care was difficult for us initially but his teachers are so caring and the staff is so sweet, & supportive. He learns so much in a fun, playful and safe environment. We couldn’t ask for more.
- Courtney LI just have to say that we LOVE Imagination Island! It’s the best and most positive experience for my preschool daughter! EVERYONE is loving, alert, attentive, and HAPPY – everyday! The children are not just at a ‘daycare’ – they are learning, doing, having fun and being ‘taught’ how to learn- how to socialize- and other things- yoga, science experiments, cooking, art, and the basics colors, letters, shapes, etc!
If you are weighing all the options for a preschool for you little one- IMAGINATION ISLAND IS IT!!! The facility is top notch- the equipment, curricullum, toys, books, centers, and the teachers are excellent! Miss Lisa, Mr Richie, and Miss Tori are WONDERFUL! and will do anything to help you and your child!!! I LOVE THEM!!
- Coni MWe are so delighted that our daughter is part of the Imagination Island Family !! The school is always sparkling clean and neat. A State of the Art facility that communicates with me daily on my daughters progress via e-mail ; plus pictures and videos of her throughout the day so I don’t miss out on whats going on with her while I’m at work. Most importantly of ALL the staff and teachers are passionate and dedicated to provide an excellent learning experience for the children. My daughter is advancing each week in her skills thanks to her wonderful teacher. My daughter enjoys it so much she even asks to go to school on the weekends 🙂
- Tracy SMy children have been going to Imagination Island for almost 2 years. My daughter was only 6 months and my son was 2 when I enrolled them. I can say I have been extremely happy with my experience. Both my children are so excited and love going and that says a lot. I would definitely recommend Imagination Island to anyone looking for a daycare. They really are wonderful with my children and always go above and beyond. Plus I absolutely love the tadpoles app that allows me to see pictures and videos throughout the day. The little things I may miss because I have to work, they capture and it is really amazing!!
