What makes Fun Time Academy Shine!
A TRUSTED START FOR LIFELONG LEARNING
Proudly serving the Naples community since 1961, Fun Time Academy is more than just a preschool — it’s a place where young minds thrive in a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. Using a nationally recognized, play-based curriculum, we nurture curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning in children from infancy through pre-kindergarten.
Join generations of families who have trusted Fun Time Academy to start their child’s journey with fun, learning, and a foundation that lasts a lifetime.
“Fun Time Academy has had a profound impact on my daughter’s development by providing structure, routine, and fostering her communication skills. When Alessandra first began preschool, she was quite reserved and spoke very little. Thanks to the dedication and support of her wonderful teachers, she has grown tremendously. Each educator who has worked with Alessandra over the years has contributed meaningfully to her progress, and I am deeply grateful for their role in her journey.”
– Emily Mejias, Parent
