We had looked at many centers in the Peoria area before deciding on Little Friends. We have an infant and a 3 yr old. The care the teachers give my children is exceptional it makes me feel great when we drop off and the teachers greet each of our children by their name. I couldn't be happier with the program. If I have questions the office staff is always availble and tries to answer my question then, but if they can't they always get back to me the next day. I would not take my child to any other center in the area !

Little Friends Learning Center is the best program in the area. Both of my children attnding this program from 6 weeks through Kindergarten. Both are at the top of their classes in elementary school. They were reading before they left the preschool. Every teacher in every classroom was awesome. If you want an excellent place for your child nothing coudl be better

My son is in the kindergarten program and so far I am not happy with any of it. The daily schedule is not followed (I drop in unannounced periodically), the room is small and unsanitary (dirty, severely stained floors, major clutter on floor and shelves) and the room smells like a mixture between a kennel and an attic. It appears to me that the teacher is merely babysitting rather than coinciding with the cirriculum of the Dunlap school district. The homework that is sent home with my son seems like it is geared toward preschoolers; and the actual copying job is so extremely poor and unprofessional. Im not too happy with my other son's room either. He is in the 2s room, and the children's noses arent kept wiped, they are very unorganized, and they change the diapers so quickly that often my son leaves there with it hanging off! The directors of this facility are very professional, nice and always available for you & the toddler teachers are good.
My Son went there for 2 1/2 years and it was the best decision my wife and I made. My son is in kindergarten now and is in the top of his class. Without Little Friends I do not think that it would be possible. No wonder Little Friends is the #1 child care facility in Central Illinios. If you have children and you are looking for only the best in learning, then you must send them to Little Friends!!!
