Ladybird Academy of Lake Mary

Ladybird Academy has been a wonderful experience for our family and especially for our infant son! From day one, the staff has been warm, attentive, and incredibly caring. I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in a safe, nurturing environment where his needs are met with love and professionalism. The communication from the teachers is excellent, and I love getting daily updates and photos. It’s clear they truly care about each child’s growth and development. Highly recommend Ladybird Academy to any parent looking for quality care and peace of mind!

My children (4 & 5) have had to go to a few daycares due to moving and also my son requires extra attention. Ladybird has been wonderful and both kids are thriving. I find the atmosphere to be positive and the communication to be top-notch. I am especially impressed by the front desk and administrative team including Sarah. My kids are now moving on to public school nearby and it's sad as we FINALLY found a great fit for our family. They don't stress you out with all these extra things but they also have great structure. Thank you Ladybird for the incredible care you've given my kids.

Ladybird academy is the absolute best early learning school for my grandkids. I have 3 enrolled and they love it. They girls love Miss Lorie and my grandson thinks Miss Ashley is the best. My grandson is heading to kindergarten and is very well equipped to face this new challenge.

My son is always excited to come to his preschool and sometimes doesn't want to leave. I love his teachers Ms.Jade and Ms.Yami. I recommend Ladybird Lake Mary to everyone I know with kids. All the staff up front is wonderful Sarah, Chelsea and Mary.

My son had a deeply negative experience with this school, and the lasting impact has been heartbreaking. Even months after he stopped attending Ladybird, he continues to have an extremely adverse reaction when reminded of the school. Recently, a family member visiting us, unaware that he no longer attended Ladybird, mistakenly drove him into the parking lot. The moment he recognized where they were, he had a full meltdown, screaming repeatedly, “No Ladybird, no Ladybird.” She called me in a panic, and I had to help calm him down and redirect them to his current school. It was alarming to see how strongly he reacted—this does not happen in any other situation or location. He has absolutely no problems with his new school and seems much happier there. My son isn’t able to fully verbalize his experience, but whatever happened at Ladybird left a lasting scar. The emotional reaction he has speaks volumes. I could share more details about specific issues I was aware of during his time at the school, but I feel the point is clear. This environment did not prove to be a safe, supportive, or positive place for my child. As a parent, it has been deeply upsetting to see the emotional toll this school has taken on him. If you’re considering Ladybird, I encourage you to carefully evaluate how the school interacts with and supports children, particularly those who may need extra care or attention. This was not the right environment for my son, and I hope no other child has to go through what he has experienced.
