LEAP ACADEMY

Testimonios

“Our son’s first daycare experience was with Ms. Khalil just weeks before the world shutdown. Her care and love in a small environment allowed our essential worker household to keep working while he was thriving. The city adventures he went on to parks, on scavenger hunts, on bike rides gave him big kid confidence in a tiny body! Definitely recommend Leap!” -Sam

We believe in creating a fun and engaging environment that nurtures imagination, builds confidence, and encourages problem-solving skills through hands-on experiences and meaningful connections.
