Offers Affordable Daycare for Everyone
Educare Preschool is committed to offering quality daycare for families in Pinellas and Pasco Counties at each of their three convenient locations, all the while making daycare affordable for everyone. Focused on offering a progressive curriculum that was written and created by the owners and approved by the state, Educare Preschool embraces each child and helps to form a foundation for learning that will help them to be successful in school. Independently owned and operated, Educare Preschool values building individual relationships with families, while children learn and grow through play, dance, music and hands-on fun. The original Educare Preschool was located just off of U.S. 19, just south of Tampa Road. It was founded in 2005 by owners Andrew Pisko and Daisy Miranda, who at the time opened their school with just 11 chil-

Owner Daisy Miranda has more than 20 years of experience and has an educational background in Childhood Education and Psychology. The former Director of The Sylvan Learning Center in Palm Harbor, she also was the director of a large daycare facility in Long Island. Andrew Pisko also has a highly beneficial background, as he has his Master’s Degree in Counseling and Child Psychology and has experience working with children who have
