We have loved having our son at Amazing Explorers since they opened in 2019. The teachers and leadership are lovely people and kind to all children. Classrooms are clean and staff has gone out of the way to be COVID conscientious - all teachers wear masks, students wash hands coming in, parents check kids in at front door to limit exposure risk.The director, Ms. Nargis and her assistant director, Ms. Miostoy are wonderful. And each of his teachers are loving and kind. Thank you AE for a great experience so far!(One helpful note to parents - if you speak Spanish and English that will come in very handy. Many of the teachers speak Spanish as their first language. Many also speak fluent English, but being bilingual would benefit you! As a positive, my son is learning both languages which has been fun for us all!)

We could not be happier with our decision to enroll our toddler in Amazing Explorers Academys daycare program. As parents with graduate degrees in STEAM fields, AEAs STEAM-focused curriculum drew us in from the beginning. We love seeing our little girl so excited to go to school and come home telling us about her day, how much fun she had, and what she learned. All of the staff are friendly and genuinely care about our family. The additional safety steps that AEA implemented during the pandemic have given us peace of mind. We highly recommend Amazing Explorers Academy!

We enrolled my daughter about a year ago to save time on my commute. It was a hard decision because we loved our previous daycare but, we knew Amazing Explorers has a good reputation across Orlando. It has been a wonderful experience. My daughter never complains about going to school. She is happy, healthy, and thriving. I appreciate all the staff and teachers at Amazing Explorers for making our transition easy. They communicate well and have been very accommodating with any questions or special needs weve expressed.

Best daycare ever!! Im so glad we decided to put our son at Amazing Explorers Vista Lakes. All the staff is amazing - super friendly, caring and professional! Especially Miss Rosa, our sons teacher - we cant thank her enough for how well she takes care of him. He started at 14 months and was previously watched at home by a nanny, so he was used to one on one attention. Miss Rosa and the rest of the staff were super patient and understanding and helped him get used to all the new changes. Now he loves going to daycare and is excited every morning when we get there. Cant recommend this place enough!!

This is the second school year for both of my children at Amazing Explorers-Vista Lakes. So many things for our family & community have changed over the last few months, but Amazing Explorers has remained a constant. The staff and teachers have always made decisions that best fit the needs of ALL students. They keep them happy, safe, and learning while taking extra precautions to sanitize for a healthy and thriving learning environment. My daughter is a student in the VPK program and also an extended day student, while my son is enrolled in the 3 year old course. In both situations, they are exposed to a rich curriculum with STEAM based activities rolled out by loving teachers. In addition to regular enrollment, the front office staff orchestrate departure/arrivals with OCPS bus transportation so my children can participate in Speech lessons provided by their IEPs. Words cannot express how thankful I am, knowing my children are cared for and supported when Im at work. When you find the right daycare/academy for your family, you just know it. Thank you Amazing Explorers Staff & Teachers!

Hands down by far the best childcare I have received. I love this place. From the respect to the communication to just the peace of mind when I’m at work. They have my trust and I believe my son is in safe hands when he goes to school. That goes a long way with me. All in all I would definitely recommend Amazing Explorers to any and everyone with kids. 🙂

My grandson goes here and it is absolutely amazing. He has learned so much in such a short time and it’s very apparent that all the staff love him so much. I enjoy watching him on the cameras from time to time to make sure he is happy and having fun. Wild highly recommend this school b

My son and daughter both attend Amazing Explorers Academy at Vista Lakes and me and my husband could not be more satisfied with the decision that we made enrolling our kids at this school. The teachers and staff are all so friendly and ensure that your child is safe and will be well taken care of. Finding a good preschool in the Lake Nona/ Vista Lakes area is very hard because of the high demand but we are so happy that we found this school and were able to enroll our kids with no hassle. My kids love it so much, they get excited every day to go see their teachers. I couldnt say enough good things about the school. Such a great childcare option especially during these uncertain times of Covid-19.

We took a tour of this facility earlier this year and immediately fell in love with AE of Vista Lakes. The rooms are bright and clean, the caretakers and directors are instructive, warm, and communicative, and most importantly, our son is happy and learning! We are currently expecting and cannot wait to have our newest little join the AE crew!

Very rude, unprofessional, poor communication. All they care about is your money. I assure you. Your kids are sleeping till 3:30 and watching iPad all day.

I can’t explain how happy I am that I switched my 2 year old to Amazing Explorers, I was very nervous when we started here because of a terrible experience at a previous school, everyone here was nothing but welcoming, understanding and caring about my son and my family, putting us at easy that he would be okay and safe. I am so thankful that I found this school, he is learning so much and talking a lot more, he is coming home doing something new everyday, they have been a blessing for us. I am a momma bear and have always been obsessed with looking at the cameras and making sure everything is okay and I don’t even feel the need to do so anymore, everyone here is wonderful, all the teachers are amazing and caring. The Director and Assistant Director are truly loving people and those are the kind of people who you would trust to leave your child with.

My 1.5 yo son has been thriving since switching schools to the new Vista Lakes location. He is talking more, more confident, and even eating better and gaining weight better. He is such a happy kid at Amazing Explorers! The teachers are all so nice and the administration is always welcoming and remembers small details about my son. Even teachers from other classrooms all know his name!

They just care is about your money, we did our inscription 6 months prior school starts, we were told that we have to pay it to save a spot, a month before starting they said that they don’t have the program we were looking for, that we shouldn’t start the process that long, and they don’t return the money…..really

Valentina loves attending the school. Every morning when we are all getting ready and she is watching tv, the only way to get her off the TV is by telling her “lets go get ready to go to school”. We live somewhat far from school but dont mind the driving as we love the environment, The curriculum, her teacher, the personal, the facility and moreover We love how happy she gets everyday when we arrive. We recently discovered our little Valentina (21 month old) knows how to count to 20). We love the structured playing and the access to the cameras. People at the lobby are always polite, courteous and welcoming. The director is a very sweet and caring person.

Since bringing our boys to Amazing Explorers in February, they have improved their vocabulary and social skills by leaps and bounds. Ms. Gloria, Ms. Ana, and Ms. Nicole are excellent teachers, and they care about their students.

My 3 y.o. son have been in this school since day one and he’s loving it, his teacher Gloria is simply the best, always taking such a good care of all the kids and always really helpful since our son was the youngest in the group, the rest of the staff always go all and beyond to keep everything running smoothly for both the kids and the parents specially the director Ms. Khan and her assistant Ms. Torres, they are very patient specially with first parents like us!! We also love their STEM program and their curriculum in general had help our son a lot! One of the features we love of this school is the ability to check your kids at all times in the app via the cameras in the classroom and they not charge extra for that feature like other schools!

This school just opened and so far my toddler has loved it. She raves on and on about all the fun things she gets to do all day and how much she loves her teachers! Looking forward to seeing all the great things this school has to offer and just how much my daughter learns in a fun group setting!

Amazing Explorers offers an extraordinary curriculum, safe, and caring environment. The entire staff including the administration personnel, Assistant Director, and Director go above & beyond which makes it an even more pleasant experience. Our son has been thriving since starting AEA, and has amazed us with everything he’s learned so far all while being excited to go everyday.We live over 40 minutes away however, don’t mind making the drive because of how happy we are all around. I highly recommend AEA to anyone!

Both of my toddlers attend Amazing Explorers Vista Lakes. In addition to lesson roll-out responsibilities, the teachers are loving and supportive to meet our childrens needs. The classroom environment promotes a learning and growing development for all students. The educational tools provided in the classroom and on the outdoor playground provide STEAM based, engaging tasks for all learners and abilites. The front desk staff is also instrumental in helping my daughter leave and return safely by OCPS transportation for Speech Therapy on a regular basis. We are so lucky to have a hardworking team of teachers and staff!
