Cradles to Crayons Inc

Cradles To Crayons began in a house tucked into a lovely residential area in Vero Beach. In 2005, a huge addition was added expanding the program to provide six additional classrooms. It became a part of the Kids Depot Preschool Academies family of schools in 2008 and became a Christian Early Childhood Program.

Even though we have grown to a larger school, Cradles To Crayons has maintained the warm and home-like environment from its earlier day. We were exclusively selected by the Early Learning Coalition as the recipient of a grant from the Indian River Community Foundation as a Mentor School. We have formed a special partnership with Big Brothers – Big Sisters and the Early Learning Coalition to deliver to our three year old, four year old and VPK students mentors who provide enrichment during the preschool morning portion of the program in the areas of literacy, math and science, building a lifetime love for learning.

Our children have flourished and our parents have been very pleased with the extra attention and growth they have seen as a result of their child being part of the Mentor School. We are an APPLE accredited program and hold the Gold Seal Quality of Care, the highest quality rating issued by the Florida Department of Children and Families.

From our clean, bright classrooms—to our Safe Harbor web-based video viewing system for parents—to our beautiful, shady Perma-Grass playground, we are all about bringing the best "trends in education" to your child and family.

At Cradles To Crayons children enjoy the excitement of learning while making friends and special childhood memories, all in a wholesome, Christian setting.
