This daycare is an absolute Godsend. The owners and directors are wonderful and caring. They truly want the best for not only the kids, but for the parents as well. Our 2 year old and 3 year old both went here. The 3 year old has a speech and learning delay and is very hesitant to change. He fell in love with this place very quickly. The 2 year old asks for her teachers by name every morning when she wakes up. Any worries we had in the beginning melted away. Your kids might come home dirty from playing hard, but they’re gonna have the time of their lives while they’re here. We are now moving and my husband and I are both so sad to be leaving Let’s Be Friends. There is no other daycare like it. Thank you Let’s Be Friends Academy for everything you’ve done for our family, the community, and the families to come. We love you!

My child attended Lets Be Friends Academy for over a year prior to moving out of state and I wanted to provide feedback on the quality of care we received from this facility. The facility is well maintained, secure, clean, staffed well enough to provide care for young children from babies to toddlers. They have a number of activities scheduled here on a regular basis and the children get the opportunity to play outside often, with enough room to grow, play and make connections with the other kids in their respective classes. Meals are provided from home, which ensures your kids are eating meals aligned to their own nutrition goals. Some highlighted services here are that they support MCCYN military childcare tuition assistance as well as having a routinely visiting Occ Therapist for children in need of speech therapy and skill development. Very satisfied!

Both of my children attend LBFA and the absolutely love it. The staff is amazing and truly cares about every child and how unquie they are. Clothes come home muddy but they are so happy. It's such a great feeling to have a center that your children ask to go too and sad when it's time to go home.

Both my children have been attending since October 2023, and let me say that LBF daycare has been a blessing for the girls and me. Upon touring the daycare, I fell in love with it instantly and knew I wanted to enroll my girls there. As a mom-run daycare, the women who run the place are amazing. Not only is the leadership excellent, but the staff are very loving, attentive, passionate, and patient. You can tell the team are happy. Many staff also have years of experience, while those just starting out in childcare are just as great ❤️Everything you would hope your children to be around. They are also highly interactive and encourage parents to play an active role in their children's learning environment. Everything in the building was also designed with a purpose. With plenty of places to run away and a lot of staff to oversee the children. This is truly a place where a kid is allowed to be a kid but in a controlled environment. I am so pleased with my experience. Lastly, they are also the kind of staff that will go above and beyond to make the children’s needs are met. Of course, communication and an excellent rapport between providers and parents are equally important. I hit the jackpot finding the place. It is worth the long drive & a place that deserves recognition.

From the moment we toured LBFA my husband and I felt such a peace about enrolling our daughter here. I cannot even put into words how much all of the staff and teachers bless our little girl and our family. My infant daughter is filled with glee as we walk in the door. All of the staff are so welcoming and most know my daughter by name. The communication is the perfect amount for us to stay informed without being overwhelmed and inundated. The level of openness, freedom for the kids, and transparency to the parents is unmatched. I am forever grateful to Chrissy for creating such an incredible environment for our kids to grow, learn and most importantly, PLAY! Heather does a phenomenal job with the infant program. All of her teachers have been so kind, caring and compassionate. She LOVES hanging out Ms. Gracie, Katelyn, Ms. Stevie, Nadya and the whole gang. I cannot imagine finding a more perfect program for our little one.
