Questions parents ask about Elfers Christian Preschool

Is Elfers Christian Preschool a licensed child care provider in Florida?

No. The Florida Department of Children and Families lists Elfers Christian Preschool 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 X06PA0008, 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 Elfers Christian Preschool offer free VPK?

Yes. Elfers Christian Preschool 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 Elfers Christian Preschool a Gold Seal provider?

Yes. Elfers Christian Preschool holds Florida's Gold Seal Quality Care designation, which requires accreditation by a DCF-approved accrediting association in good standing.

Does Elfers Christian Preschool accept School Readiness subsidies?

Yes. The DCF record shows Elfers Christian Preschool 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.

How many children can Elfers Christian Preschool care for?

Elfers Christian Preschool is licensed for up to 123 children. Licensed capacity is a legal maximum, not current availability or enrollment.

Has Elfers Christian Preschool had any licensing violations?

Florida DCF has recorded 10 inspections at Elfers Christian Preschool, 5 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.
