My daughter received two bruises two days apart from each other in the same exact spot. When I…read moreaddressed it with the director, she just told me that they should've wrote a report, but they had "documented it". Never informing me or my husband about these bruises. As a parent that was a huge red flag to me, I had also taken pictures of it as soon as we noticed them, which was the date of each bruise . After the second one something didn't feel right, considering again it was in the same exact spot and the same exact long line shape. I never received an apology or an explanation as to why my daughter received these bruise on her back thigh near her bottom. For the safety of your kids, I would not recommend bringing them here!

My review is a little long, but I promise it's worth the read…read more Parents: If you're trying to decide on a daycare, you're probably asking yourself, "Why should I choose this one?" As a mom, I asked myself that same question. Leaving your children in someone else's care is one of the hardest things you'll ever do. We all want a place where our children are safe, loved, learning, and genuinely happy while we're away. After a lot of searching, I can honestly say that choosing LBFDS was one of the best decisions I've made for my family. The Teachers & Environment: This is the biggest reason I recommend LBFDS. The teachers don't just supervise the children--they genuinely care about them. They build relationships, celebrate milestones, comfort them when they're upset, encourage them to learn, and make every child feel loved and secure. I especially want to recognize Teacher Brenda (if I'm remembering her name correctly). My child absolutely adored her. Every morning my little one would light up with excitement and run straight into her arms. As a parent, there's nothing more comforting than knowing your child feels that safe and loved. Moments like that speak volumes about the people they hire. The daycare is always clean, organized, and welcoming. Every time I've walked in, the children looked genuinely happy. Communication: One of my favorite things about LBFDS is how well they communicate with parents. As a mom who worries about her children all day, the updates meant everything to me. They kept me informed with diaper changes, feeding times, naps, and daily activities. They also sent pictures and videos throughout the day, which instantly gave me peace of mind. Seeing my children smiling, playing, learning, and making friends reassured me that they were exactly where they needed to be. Learning & Activities: The older my children have gotten, the more I've realized how much they learned at LBFDS. They don't simply keep children busy--they help them grow. They focus on age-appropriate academics, language development, social skills, and fine and gross motor skills while making learning fun. Their days are filled with story time, arts and crafts, educational activities, outdoor play, music, snacks, nap time, and opportunities to socialize with other children. Everything is thoughtfully planned for each age group, creating a balance between learning and play. Parent Involvement: One of the things I appreciate most is how much LBFDS values family involvement. Throughout the year they host holiday programs and special events where parents get to watch their children sing, perform, and celebrate what they've learned. Those moments are priceless, and I'll always treasure the crafts and keepsakes my children proudly brought and will bring home. They also help children build confidence, independence, and friendships while creating an environment where every child feels included and encouraged to succeed. Overall If you're looking for a daycare where your child is truly loved--not just supervised--I wholeheartedly recommend LBFDS. Their caring teachers, strong communication, engaging academics, fun activities, and welcoming environment have exceeded every expectation I had. The greatest gift they've given me is peace of mind. Knowing my children are safe, happy, learning, and surrounded by people who genuinely care is something I can never fully express. Every morning my children were excited to go, and every afternoon they came home smiling. That alone told me everything I needed to know. To every teacher and staff member at LBFDS, thank you for loving my babies as if they were your own. Thank you for every hug, every lesson, every encouraging word, every picture and video that brightened my day, and every milestone you celebrated with them. Your kindness, patience, and dedication have made a lasting impact on our family, and we will always be grateful.

We love Little Big Foot! My daughter has been going to the daycare for 6 months now and we've had a…read morefantastic experience. The teachers really care about the kids and treat them like family. I like that the classes are smaller, the kids get more attention from their teachers. The administration is welcoming and friendly, and they were flexible when we needed to change our schedule. The school is bilingual so they teach in English and Spanish. I'm so happy we chose this school, and I'm looking forward to sending my daughter here for the preschool program too.

The teachers and staff are absolutely amazing and wonderful. The kids to teacher ratio is perfect. Dropping my kiddo off wasn't a struggle because he was excited to go every day and coming home he was always happy which gave me assurance that I made the right choice enrolling my son there. It's secure which I definitely like, you could call anytime of day to check in and see how your kiddo is doing and someone is always there to answer the phone. I will definitely be bringing my kids back to daycare here. Everything about Bright Minds gives me the piece of mind that my baby boy is in good hands!!!

It's a magical place that has everything: no staff turnover, low infant to caregiver ratio, they take the kids outside to play, food provided once they get old enough to eat, temperature in the building isn't too cold (I was told at one place to pack flannel onesies because they can't adjust the air conditioning!), and they truly care about the children.

They have no formal training on infant development and especially infant socio-emotional development. There were always subs so I had to leave my daughter with people I did not know. One of the subs did not even speak English. She left my baby unattended on top of a changing table and that was my last straw. The director Sarah does a good job of marketing the place and is kind of like a used car salesman. The campus is beautiful though.

We will miss Covenant and the amazing staff. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!

As a mom searching for the…read moreright place for my toddler, I visited a few centers, including Shandiin, Noah's Ark, and Busy Bees Childcare. this one was out of my way and on a side of town I was not looking at because of the location but it had immediate availability and was better that the other choices by far. so, I'll drive the extra 15 min to Gibson. my child's happiness is worth it. First, the place is super clean, and they have a great curriculum in place. But what truly sets them apart is the staff/ teachers. They are warm, kind, and genuinely care about the kids. Unlike other centers where I felt rushed and my child was left crying, here, they took the time to understand my little one's needs. I never felt rushed. Getting to know the teachers is a big deal to me. One big plus, no kids crying during drop-off or pick-up! You can really tell it's a nurturing environment. Plus, it doesn't smell like dirty diapers, which is a nice perk! We're just finishing our second week, and I'm so glad I chose this center. It might be a bit out of my way, but it's the best decision I've made for my child. If you're looking for a CARING and CLEAN center, I highly recommend Eastern Child Development Center!
