I really don't want to fight the crowds at Koka Booth with baby in tow. Plus it would give us an quick exit option if the fireworks freak her out

I don't think you will see much from Waverly, as it is lower than Kildaire Farm Rd.
You will want to get on the other side of Kildaire Farm, and there are a couple of parking lots where you have some of a view.
Our office was at 115 Crescent Commons, corner of Crescent Commons and Kildaire Farm, and we would picnic in the parking lot and sit on lawn chairs and see some of the show.

Oh good to know. Do you think the back of the Walmart parking lot is high enough?

Trees....???

Cross over Crescent Commons into those parking lots, and the fireworks show over the office building down the hill.
There may be a few folks there, but it shouldn't be crowded.

There's a parking deck near the La Quinta behind Walmart. You can see the fireworks from the end of that deck nearest to the ramp.

I've also seen people set up in the Cozzolinos (old Food Lion) shopping center at KF & Penny Rd. on the sidewalk close to the road, or in the parking lot of the church across the street.

St Francis is the church on Kildaire Farm and Penny Road and I've heard it's a great place to watch the fireworks from. I would definitely avoid Regency with a baby. We've tried various spots there over the last few years and every year my kids end up sitting inside the car or office building because they hate the noise.
