My name is Jhana Pardue, and I am the Center Owner of the Learning Experience of Lutz. I graduated from the University of Central Florida with a B.S. in Accounting and Minor in Early Childhood Education. Go Knights! I am a mom of two wonderful children Noah and Riley. It was them who inspired me to delve deeper into the childcare and day care industry, eventually leading me to pursue opening our schools. The Learning Experience Lutz specializes in the care of Infants all the way up to Voluntary-Prekindergarten (VPK). Additionally, we offer before and after care programs for school-agers. We transport to and from Bexley Elementary, Oakstead Elementary and Imagine School. The most rewarding part about my job is seeing our little learners grow and develop right in front of our eyes. I look forward to meeting you and your little one soon!
