About licensed daycares in Lake Worth Beach
Lake Worth Beach is a mid-size city in Palm Beach County, on the Intracoastal Waterway just south of West Palm Beach. The city has an unusually walkable historic downtown grid, a strong Cuban, Guatemalan, and Haitian immigrant community, and a mix of century-old bungalow neighborhoods with more recent redevelopment.
Neighborhoods like the College Park district, the Bryant Park area, and the older streets east of Dixie Highway each frame different daily patterns. Many parents work in West Palm Beach, in the local service industry, or in the agricultural belt west toward Belle Glade. The licensed provider directory includes bilingual programs across the older grid, faith-based centers, and a substantial share of family day care homes tucked into the residential streets.
