Lake Alice Center

Children thrive at UF Early Childhood Collaboratory. Our NAEYC (National Association of Educators of Young Children) accredited center serves infants age 6 weeks to children 5 years old whose parents are either University of Florida (UF) faculty, staff or students. We offer VPK (Voluntary Pre-kindergarten) and are a school readiness center.

We are located on the UF campus across the street from beautiful Lake Alice on the corner of Village Drive and Museum Road. 

Our dedicated staff strives to enhance each child’s growth and learning through our use of creative curriculum which is play and sensory based. We encourage our children to explore their surroundings not only at the center but also through stroller walks, field trips, and exploration of UF’s campus and the Gainesville community.

Each year, the Lake Alice center works with a variety of volunteers, practicum, interns, and researchers from UF, Santa Fe College, and the surrounding community.
