About Us
Our Mission
Friends Early Learning Center is a unique community of caring and learning with a rich and stimulating daycare environment for Infants through Pre-Kindergarten. Friends offers a fun-packed Summer Camp program for school-age children. It is our mission to grow lifelong learners and confident caring individuals. Friends’ staff is experienced and holds degrees in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education. Friends is a state licensed facility that has been providing quality childcare and early childhood education since 1987. We encourage staff members to further their education by supporting the T.E.A.C.H. Scholarship program and currently have two staff members enrolled in this program. Because we feel each child is unique and wonderful, we have been able to create a family-like atmosphere where each child can grow emotionally, academically, and physically. Friends is a community of teachers and staff members that make an effort to know your child so that he in turn can learn and grown in a familiar, friendly environment. We have the privilege of seeing children grow from babies to Kindergartners. The year is filled with exploration, education and holiday celebrations. We are happy that you are taking the time to learn about Friends Early Learning Center and hope that you visit us soon to see the children in action.
