My 2 year old cried the ENTIRE 2 hours while she was there with little comfort from the staff. My 4 month old at the time cried the entire time too. I walked in the infant room to him screaming/crying while doing tummy time and the teacher was just sitting next to him. the infant room teacher only responded to “oh he’s just fussy and gassy” but when I picked him up he fell asleep instantly. Because he was overtired. I felt like they didn’t really listen to the schedule I told them about. This happened everyday while we were there. I don’t think it’s the worse daycare out there but it’s not the best either. I do like they have cameras

She is now close to turning 2 and we have had nothing but good experiences. She loves her friends, but also her teachers who do an excellent job at supporting her learning and development! The communication throughout the day, and being able to check in on the cameras allow us to know how her day is going. We know she’s in great hands! ----- Author: Rebecca Barlaan Rating: 2/5 Date: 11/18/2022, 12:30:07 AM Review: Tried this daycare out for 3 days for only for 2 hours each day.

My son and I loved Ladybird Academy in Longwood! The teachers were so caring, loving, and would be patient with my son even when he had his "issues". They would keep me in the loop about everything and how my son was progressing and how he did with others. I have never felt such a connection for any daycare facilty. Every morning any teacher we passed said good morning Connor. Didnt matter what class they were from they all knew him. My sons favorite was Mrs. Erika and he will miss her so much. If it wasn't for our sons diagnosis for autism we would have stayed but he needed therapy regularly. We will miss our ladybird family dearly! I recommend ladybird to any parents looking for childcare.

My daughter has been attending this daycare for several months, and I couldn't be happier with our experience. The staff is incredibly caring and attentive, always going above and beyond to ensure a safe and nurturing environment. The activities are well thought out, fostering both educational growth and creativity. Communication is excellent, and I feel confident knowing my child is in good hands every day. I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a loving and supportive place for their child.

My daughter started here over the summer and loved the teachers and program, she wanted to stay for PreK. She’s loving her time here, her teachers, and friends. Staff is super friendly and helpful, so caring when it comes to the kids and having fun! The education program is just starting but I’m optimistic about it and think it’s going to go wonderfully!

Our two boys love it here! This is our third daycare due to bad experiences at the prior two. Ladybird has finally brought a sense of peace to our family as the level of care, open communication, and individual attention they provide is truly impressive. We've been here for over a year and a half and I truly believe this will be the only daycare we continue to use until our boys enter elementary school.

This is by far one of the best schools/daycares in the Altamonte/Longwood area. My child has been to several of the surrounding facilities and this was the only location he has been excited to go to school daily! Even on the weekends my child is sad that it is not a school day. In my experience so far, they do not just write your child up or send your child home without attempting to intervene and resolve the issue first. I love that they try to work with my child being a picky eater and makes sure the children at least try what is served before offering an alternative. I also love that they offer live video feed and plenty of pictures throughout the day as well as comminucate with me about my child's day. I wish I would have started him out here when he first started going to daycare.

We are so happy at Ladybird Academy. The teachers were so kind and caring to my son when he first stared at 12 months. I will never forgot how every employee we came in contact with on that first day addressed him by name. He will be 2 soon and he loves going to daycare! I am always so impressed by how much he learns every day.
