Fun Time Early Childhood Academy announces relocation to expand access in Naples

Fun Time Early Childhood Academy is pleased to announce the relocation of its Poinciana Elementary location to Estates Elementary, a move designed to broaden access to high-quality early childhood education for families across the Naples community.

In partnership with Collier County Public Schools, this strategic transition will allow Fun Time Early Childhood Academy to serve a wider geographic area and reach more families in need of affordable, high-quality early learning opportunities.

Fun Time Early Childhood Academy’s mission is to provide affordable, high-quality early learning for underserved children from working families, preparing them for success in kindergarten and beyond. This relocation strengthens that mission by making its programs more available to communities that can benefit most.

“Fun Time Early Childhood Academy is proud to open our doors in the Estates community and expand access to affordable, high-quality early learning for working families. We are especially grateful for our valued partnership with Collier County Public Schools, whose collaboration helps ensure we’re aligning our programs with the needs of the community and setting children up for long-term success,” Christen Krembs, CEO, Fun Time Early Childhood Academy.

“This partnership between Collier County Public Schools and Fun Time Early Childhood Academy represents a meaningful investment in both our educators and our families. By providing access to high-quality early learning on the campus of Estates Elementary School, we are supporting teacher recruitment and retention while expanding opportunity in the rural Estates community. This work reflects the CCPS commitment to expanding access to early learning so more children are ready for kindergarten,” Dr. Leslie Ricciardelli, Superintendent of Collier County Public Schools.

The Academy will continue to offer its full range of early childhood programs while maintaining its high standards of education, care, and child development. For 65 years, Fun Time Academy has been serving our community, and we are excited to open our doors even further, to the Estates Community.
