Questions parents ask about Oceanway Kids
Is Oceanway Kids a licensed child care provider in Florida?
- No. The Florida Department of Children and Families lists Oceanway Kids as "Exempt", which means it operates without a DCF child care licence rather than under one. Exempt providers remain on the DCF public record under record number X04DU0114, and Florida still requires background screening of their staff, but they are not licensed and are not inspected on the same schedule. Confirm current standing with DCF before enrolling.
Does Oceanway Kids offer free VPK?
- Yes. Oceanway Kids is on record with Florida DCF as a Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) provider, so eligible 4-year-olds can attend the state-funded program here at no cost. Confirm current VPK enrollment with the provider.
Is Oceanway Kids a Gold Seal provider?
- Yes. Oceanway Kids holds Florida's Gold Seal Quality Care designation, which requires accreditation by a DCF-approved accrediting association in good standing.
Does Oceanway Kids accept School Readiness subsidies?
- Yes. The DCF record shows Oceanway Kids participates in Florida's School Readiness program, so families approved for child care assistance through their local Early Learning Coalition may be able to use it here.
What are Oceanway Kids's hours?
- Weekday hours listed on its Google business profile are 6AM-5:30PM. Listings change, so call ahead to confirm.
How many children can Oceanway Kids care for?
- Oceanway Kids is licensed for up to 225 children. Licensed capacity is a legal maximum, not current availability or enrollment.
Has Oceanway Kids had any licensing violations?
- Florida DCF has recorded 11 inspections at Oceanway Kids, 2 of which recorded at least one finding. Reports are published by the state and summarized as reported; a finding is a cited standard, not a judgment of overall quality.
