My son has gone there since around 11 months old. It was difficult to make the transition from his original caregiver, especially for a mom who was anxious about her baby being taken care of. The staff has been wonderful and welcoming. Miss Mickey has been very communicative with me and helpful when needed. My son is excited to go to daycare every day and is happy when I pick him up.

Bestfriends is such a great daycare. This was my first year having any of my kids in daycare and they have put my mind and heart at ease. My two boys love going to school everyday. And I love that they are safe and in good care.

This school was an extremely lucky find for our family after we were driven from our previous childcare by constantly raising prices - but Best Friends is so much more than just a place with reasonable rates. The kindness and professionalism of all the staff, the quality of education - all of it is top notch, and both of our children have loved coming here.
