childcare
Lakeview Lambs Childcare Center is a faith-rooted, Ohio-licensed childcare provider at 17930 Mahoning Ave in Lake Milton, serving infants through school-age children with before/after school care options. Affiliated with Lakeview Assembly church, the center emphasizes social-emotional development and Christian nurturing within age-based classrooms (including a dedicated nursery and playground). Accepting PFCC payments and offering discounts to church families, it operates weekdays from 6:30 AM to 5:30 PM and holds a Step Up To Quality Bronze rating. With no public parent reviews available, independent verification of the parent experience is limited, though the center's church foundation and established Ohio license (#2220026183) provide baseline accountability markers.
