Please do not send your kids here, especially if they need extra support, the owner is verbally aggressive to her staff and therapists that come in to work with the children. She does not respect anyone, it is scary that she is allowed to own daycares or even interact with children.
MARY TherOct 27, 2025My daughter ( 20 mnth old) has been attending for a few months. I love the school because even tho like most kids she cries at drop off .. she also doesn't wanna go home at pick up which means she's loved and cared for and loves being there . Teacher are great. The only thing I wished they would update with pictures and and lunch menu and share what activities she does on the app . Other than that my daughter is my world and I do trust Shanes Friends II with her .
Jasmine ArsicMay 24, 2024This is hands down the best daycare my children have been too . My kids love the all teachers . I love that my toddler learns throughout the day they send updates on what my child is doing . I also have two school aged children in there as well they pick them up from school they help them study and help with home work they are just amazing.they truly go above and beyond . The staff genuinely cares about the children that go there . I always recommend this daycare to friends and family etc and they are also very pleased with their child’s care as well . 20 out of 10 . Thank you Shane’s friends .
Destiny LynnJun 20, 2023All three of my Children have attended Shane's Friends and The Avenue Childcare. I could not be happier with the care we received. I say WE because the staff became our family. My children were taken care of just how I would care for them. They are very organized and have a daily routine that I believe plays an important role with young children. My daughter asks to go to school on weekends to see her teachers. It's comforting knowing that my babies are loved where they spend a good chunk of their day. They have all learned tremendously and were definitely prepared for when they started kindergarten! I could not imagine having my babies anywhere else. They thrived wonderfully.
Fallon GJun 9, 2023This school is amazing! They are the most beautiful and thoughtful ladies. Your children will be in great hands and you don’t have to worry if they’ll be alright. The teachers are great communicators and they provide the “tough love” and nurturing that your children need. My oldest is tough and I’m so grateful to have found a teacher that can understand her and give her the learning tools that she needs. As for my baby girl, they adore her and it make me so happy to see how much they love her. I don’t know what I would do without them!
Vanessa RiosJun 8, 2023Both of my children have been going to Shane’s friends 2 since babies & I am so pleased with this daycare! The staff practically became family & my kids love going to school everyday!!

Questions parents ask about SHANES FRIENDS II
Is SHANES FRIENDS II a licensed child care provider in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. SHANES FRIENDS II holds Pennsylvania certificate 100132746-0002, listed as "LICENSED" by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning in Philadelphia County. The current certificate runs to May 1, 2027. Confirm current standing at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch before enrolling.
What is SHANES FRIENDS II's Keystone STARS rating?
- Pennsylvania rates SHANES FRIENDS II STAR 1, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on October 22, 2020. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.
Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against SHANES FRIENDS II?
- No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against SHANES FRIENDS II 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 SHANES FRIENDS II accept child care subsidy?
- Yes. SHANES FRIENDS II 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 SHANES FRIENDS II?
- 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 SHANES FRIENDS II's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
