  Little Minds University Day Care in Freeport has been an incredible experience for my family. From the moment we spoke over the phone to the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcomed with their warmth, patience, and genuine kindness. It’s clear that they truly care about the children and create a nurturing, supportive environment where kids can feel safe and happy. What stood out to me the most was the sense of peace and security I felt leaving my child in their care. The cleanliness of their facility. The team is not only friendly, but also highly understanding and flexible. They really work with you to make sure everything runs smoothly, which makes a huge difference for busy parents. I highly recommend Little Minds University to anyone looking for a dependable, affordable, loving daycare. It’s such a relief knowing your child is in good hands. This is home away from home. Thank you guys

  No amount of words are enough to express my gratitude and appreciation for Little Minds Universe. I am so so happy I was referred to by a coworker about this little gem. Having come from an awful daycare experience to here - Miss Jasmine, Mr. Jermaine and the entire staff make sure every day both my daughter and I are comfortable, reassured and happy! The communication, the curriculum, the staff, the administration, the support - is everything you could dream of having when sending your little one to school especially for the first time. It’s safe & secure (cameras, entering the school with a personal family code, daily live feed updates, GREAT staff to student ratios), affordable (especially with everything included in tuition - extra curricular activities like soccer, breakfast, snacks, lunch, etc), and the staff especially Miss Jasmine and Mr. Jermaine going above and beyond to ensure everything is okay - and on the off chance something is wrong - it is addressed in real time and taken care of swiftly. I have no complaints - only praises and gratitude that I was able to open up and trust in Little Minds Universe to take care of and guide my little girl on her educational journey. They also invest in their staff education - taking them on educational retreats and conferences which is phenomenal. They LISTEN, HEAR and UNDERSTAND your voice and concerns as a parent and never once made me feel like I was over exaggerating or just being a “first time mom”. When we first started going here it took my daughter who was 2 at the time and for the most part home - several weeks to get comfortable enough to not cry at drop off but every day, the staff just continued to try and make my girl feel comfortable. Miss Jasmine and Mr. Jermaine even went ahead and got my daughter a couple of her favorite character teddy bears to help her feel comfortable - just for her... They allowed her even up to today to have her “comfort sleeping teddy” with her for nap times. This review could go on forever as again there is sooooo much more amazing things I could say about them - from the family Christmas party with the kids performances and the administrators Miss Jasmine and Mr. Jermaine getting presents for ALL the kids personally picked out for each kid - to the special guests (a dentist to teach the kids how to brush their teeth), to the daily walks to the park, to the book fairs. Did I also mention they’re open for summer program which we are so excited this year to be a part of. Thank you Little Minds and the entire staff for what you do and what you believe in. It shines and shows in everything that you all do for the kids. If you’re a parent with hesitancy on where to send your kid - don’t hesitate with Little Minds Universe. They are truly Freeports Hidden Gem.

  I cannot recommend Little Minds Universe enough! They have been a part of our family’s journey for a while now, having cared for my son first and now my daughter. What really sets them apart is their incredible patience and heart. They truly take the time to understand each child's individual needs and make them feel comfortable and supported. It’s such a relief to drop my daughter off knowing she is in such kind, capable hands. If you’re looking for a place that treats your kids like family, this is it!

  I truly love and highly recommend little minds universe, when my son attended he loved it. He was always excited to go school. I always had peace of mind with communication from staff and pictures of my child and activities throughout the day. My child is in 1st grade now and still remembers every time we drive by that this was his first school.

  My Son is in the toddlers class and he absolutely LOVES it at Little Minds Universe 💙 He’s so excited to go every single day, which truly means everything to us as parents. He comes home everyday with new sentences and is always ready to share what he’s done throughout the day! The curriculum is truly amazing. As busy parents, it warms our hearts to see him smile as he walks through the door and is greeted with the biggest smiles and such welcoming energy from the entire staff. It instantly gives us a strong sense of safety and comfort. We are so happy knowing we can drop off a piece of us somewhere and feel so confident that he is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. He loves the staff there, who feel like family, his friends, and his teachers and even the FOOD! The healthy, nutritious meals they receive are amazing. You can really tell how much love and effort goes into creating such a positive environment. We’re so grateful to be part of this family and would absolutely recommend LMU to any parent looking for a place where their child will feel safe, supported, and excited to learn every day! 🥰🙏🏾

  My great grand baby attends Little Minds Universe, and I have had such a wonderful experience. From the moment she started, it was clear that this is more than just a childcare center. Them kids are growing strong. She definitely loves Ms. D and Ms. Yolonda. My baby girl talks about them all the time, which speaks volumes about the connection they’ve built with her. We’ve also noticed such positive growth in her. Ms. Jasmine is doing a great job in leading this team. You can tell they genuinely enjoy what they do, and it shows in the way they engage with the children every day. Thank you to the entire Little Minds Universe team for creating such a warm and welcoming space. We truly appreciate all that you do for our children and families!
