Happy Parents in Gahanna

  • "We were very hesitant to make the switch, as we didn’t hate our previous daycare. We heard such great things about BFA Gahanna and reluctantly gave it a go. The best decision for our family! Our 10 month old has grown so much, he is playing with children his own age, he is learning a curriculum, he LOVES his teachers, and he’s eating solid foods like a pro. When we dropped our son off at our previous daycare he would cry as we left the building. Now he’s reaching for the teachers at BFA Gahanna! Hats off to the owners as well, they are so friendly, greet us every morning and have such amazing plans for the growth of the daycare! We are loving BFA Gahanna and I recommend it to everyone"

  • " I'm incredibly thankful for the entire staff at BFA! Sending my son to daycare wouldn't have been possible without them. As a working mom, I experience mom guilt daily, but these supportive women are truly incredible. The list of good things about BFA Gahanna/Morse goes on! Highly recommend the BFA family. Thank you to the entire staff!!!"

  • BFA Gahanna has been wonderful. When we first enrolled our baby at 5 months old, she refused any and all bottles. I was an absolute wreck about it, and BFA assured me they would get her taking bottles. They did!! They worked as a team and tried all the bottles we’d purchased, used syringe feeding to make sure she was getting those calories, and encouraged momma and baby on the hard days. They were so phenomenal through the process, and now baby takes bottles like a champ! We love the welcoming nature of everyone and how well cared for and loved our girl is. The easy and detailed communication is awesome throughout the day. I especially enjoy all of the pictures. Definitely recommend!

  • “We LOVE BFA Morse Rd! The new owners are incredible and take a genuine interest in our family and our sons development. The newly renovated building is beautiful and has everything our toddler needs. The teachers are so kind and patient. We get constant updates throughout the day with pictures of all the fun activities they are doing together. The meals are healthy and delicious (I love when they have extras for the parents) and the playground outside is next level. It's always hard for us to leave our child in the morning, but knowing he is in such great hands makes it a little easier."

    -Hannah B.

  • "I am very pleased and impressed with BFA Morse location. My son is happy there - and he has been his best self ever since he started a month ago today. He has improved tremendously in learning, and I am very happy about that! Rachel & Ehyrah are amazing, and if it weren't for them, daycare would not have been possible!"

    -Tamara H.

  • "We have been extremely happy with BFA on Morse. The teachers communicate throughout the day, which we love. The owners are very nice and thoughtful. It's obvious they care about the children, the school, the parents, and the teachers. The newly remodeled building is clean and the kids love it. I can't say enough great things about BFA. It provides us with a peace of mind throughout the day."

    -Alex S.

  • "My wife and I were very reluctant to put our 1 year old into daycare after spending his first year with family. After touring multiple daycares we walked into BFA and it just felt right. We saw the small class rooms, met with wonderful, caring staff members and saw how spotless the place was. We get multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and I feel like we always know what’s going on with his day. I hope whoever reads this understands that we were very scared and nervous about trusting non-family members with the care of our son but we are grateful looking back that we chose BFA to take a leap of faith with."

    -Josh H.

  • "Talk about next level child care! Wow, I am so impressed with their engagement, their extra circular activities and how caring the owners are about their children's well being as well as their parents needs."

    Marci C, BFA Parent

  • "I love BFA Gahanna. Rachel and Ehryah were great and helped us out so much with the enrollment and gave us a personal tour of BFA. They redid the entire buildling and have great rooms and playspaces for the kids. It feels like a family atmosphere and was the perfect place for my toddler. The all-inclusive care made a big difference for me and made it so much easier to get out the door in the morning without feeling stressed out or rushed. BFA listened to what were our priorites as parents and I really feel like they are partners with us in caring for my son. The teachers and directors know our family by name. I never had to worry about packing snacks, meals or diapers- it was already there and ready and the meals were fresh, balanced, and healthy. The teachers are kind and friendly- they keep great communication through the careday app and always let me know what's going on in my kid's class. The daily enrichment activities and play are great, and I can tell my little tiger is learning a lot at BFA and making great memories."
