I can’t find enough words to express how fantastic I think this establishment is! You took in our little 2 year old turning 3 years old grandson and made him an even better version of himself! The staff is wonderful and know what they are doing!

I was struggling to find help and so glad I found Positive Leaps! If your child has problems with separation anxiety or temper tantrums or has been kicked out of a daycare this place can help you! I went from worrying every day about daycare calling and saying something bad about my grandson to hearing weekly how well he was doing!

This program has completely turned my son around and now he is graduating TODAY!!! Not 1 time in the whole time my son has been there have I been left in the dark or unsure of his day or progress. They keep detailed record of his behavior daily so I know if at any time I want to know all I have to do is ask.
