Southside Learning Center Inc.

"Where Children are allowed to Blossom" Southside Learning Center's goal is to provide a safe and happy place for children to grow and learn.

Communication between parent and provider is very important. Southside Learning Center takes pride in offering quality service to families in Lakeland, FL. As a leading child care provider in the local area, we make it a point to provide a high level of care to each child to ensure that they can thrive in our loving environment and form strong relationships. You can have peace of mind knowing that

your child is in safe hands with a professional day care that works to stimulate your child mentally through the use of various games and tools. We strive to help them grow physically in a comfortable and safe environment they can play in until it's time to head home. Southside Learning Center also offers preschool programs that provide an educational setting where your child can continue to develop with other children their age. You can enjoy watching your child progress and share what they've learned at their time at our center. We understand that not being able to provide the comfort and attention that your child needs can be challenging. Our teachers do their best to ensure that your children are fully engaged and entertained with activities that include singing conversation time. We enjoy offering a positive environment where your child can get to know the other children and teachers for a family setting that will quickly become familiar to them. Call us today to learn more!
