  • This childcare center is nothing short of amazing. From the owner to the quality of services they provide. My children have been attending the facility since 2017. The staff was always welcoming and understanding when my children were having a day. I love the the home-cooked meals and the play based educational setting. This school is definitely worth the investment in our children.

Questions parents ask about FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY

Is FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY a licensed child care provider in Pennsylvania?

Yes. FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY holds Pennsylvania certificate 102660095-0001, listed as "LICENSED" by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning in Philadelphia County. The current certificate runs to March 13, 2027. Confirm current standing at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch before enrolling.

What is FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY's Keystone STARS rating?

Pennsylvania rates FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY STAR 1, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on March 23, 2026. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.

Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY?

No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY at the time the record was published. That is a single field in a snapshot, not a full compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. The licensing inspection detail is at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch.

Does FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY accept child care subsidy?

Yes. FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY holds a subsidy agreement with the state. The agreement covers these age groups: Infant and toddler, Preschool, School-age. An agreement means the provider can bill the subsidy programme, not that a funded place is free today. Eligibility is decided by your Early Learning Resource Center, Early Learning Resource Center for Region 18.

Does this page show inspection results for FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY?

No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects FOUNDATION 1ST LEARNING ACADEMY's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
