Real Reviews From Grove City Parents

"I was SO nervous as a first time mom to take my then 10 week old baby to daycare. After the first day at BFA, I knew I didn’t have to worry anymore! My daughter is thriving thanks to the care of her loving and attentive teachers. We get updates on her activities throughout the day along with the most adorable pictures. When I pick her up, she is always content and either playing, sleeping or getting cuddles! The teachers and administrators are so kind and communicative. BFA is worth absolutely every penny of tuition. I can’t recommend it enough!"

Anna, BFA Grove City Parent
"My husband and I could not be more happy with our decision to send our son to BFA of Grove City! We know everyday our son is there he is getting the absolute best care from the most wonderful teachers and staff! If you are looking for a daycare for your little ones, BFA of Grove City needs to be at the top of your list!"

-Alyssa, BFA Grove City Parent
"We absolutely love BFA of Grove City. We started both our kids (3.5 and 18 months) when they opened and have had nothing but the best experience. From the design of the classrooms, to the AMAZING teachers and directors, to delicious and healthy food to all the activities our kids get to experience each day, we cannot imagine a better place to send them. Our kids had always been watched at home, so we were nervous to transition to a daycare, but it has been the most wonderful experience for our family and cannot imagine having done any differently."

-Alyson, BFA Grove City Parent
"After more than a year as part of the BFA Grove City family, we could not be more impressed, pleased and happy we chose them! Their staff is incredibly caring and professional. They’ve helped us through some big milestones with our son and continue to help him grow and shine! We were thrilled the facility was brand new when we joined and is extremely convenient from downtown cbus!"

-Patrick, BFA Grove City Parent
"BFA has been the perfect place for our family. The teachers are staff are so kind and great with our kids. We get multiple photos and updates throughout the day about how they’re doing and what they’re learning. They have fun activities like yoga and jump bunch throughout the week that our daughter loves being a part of. They provide a variety of quality food for snacks and lunches. Everything is very clean and organized. We are so happy we switched to BFA. Highly recommend!"

Stacey, BFA Grove City Parent
"Balanced Family Academy Grove City is full of kind people. The owner has been actively involved in helping families start at the center, the administrators have been quick to answer questions that arise, and the teachers are very caring and patient. Our infant daughter was quite anxious starting daycare for the first time, but the teachers were incredibly patient with her, gave her tons of snuggles, and helped her become increasingly comfortable in the new environment. And the teachers don’t hesitate to ask parents during the day about an infant’s current routine or habits to help them best care for your little one. We can’t thank them enough for helping our daughter get acclimated to a daycare environment."

-Andrew, BFA Grove City Parent
"I have nothing but Awesome things to say about BFA. We were really nervous about switching over to a new daycare but hands down best decision ever made as a parent! My kids LOVE the new school with the playground and multipurpose room being their favorites! My oldest was having issues not being challenged and bored. The issues that he was having are gone! His behavior is much better now that he has the nurturing environment with healthy challenges to keep him learning! The school is so clean and very inviting with so much open space and no clutter! It's also wonderful not having to pack a lunch and bring all the extra 'stuff' to and from school! The teachers, chef, admin, and owners are amazing and always have smiles on their faces which is refreshing. There's no doubt in my mind that these people really take pride in their job, caring to make the best home away from home for my babes."

-Jessica, BFA Grove City Parent
"We couldn't be happier with our experience so far! Our three year old has thrived both in an out of BFA since starting. We've noticed a huge change in her eating habits and willingness to try new foods because of the great food selection she's exposed to there. Our four month old is also receiving excellent, loving care that feels very individualized to meet his needs. The staff is always patient and kind from the owners and directors to the chef and the teachers. The communication has been excellent and it makes our day to get photos and updates of the kids via the Tadpole app. We can't recommend Balanced Family Academy of Grove City enough!"

-Megan, BFA Grove City Parent
"BFA has done it again with another amazing center now located in Grove City. Being a first time mom and sending your little one to daycare is hard but BFA Grove City makes you feel right at home. I personally love the random pictures throughout the day and the ability to message the teachers if needed. The new location is full of smiling faces and a beautiful interior where each classroom is broken down by age, full of age appropriate toys/activities. Someone is always at the front desk greeting you and your little one and available if you ever have any questions. The on-site chief is amazing and prepares daily meals and snacks for the kiddos. My little loves the fresh muffins for breakfast. We love BFA Grove City! If you are looking for a place to send your child/children I highly recommend BFA Grove City!"
