Parents consistently praise Launch Pad Learning (operated at Giant Steps location) for caring, attentive teachers who genuinely invest in child development. The center offers a strong academic curriculum, diverse activities, and meals included, with parents noting significant developmental milestones achieved under their care.
Launch Pad Learning has been great for our daughter. The teachers are supportive and show that they care about the kids. Since the new owners took over, they’ve made great improvements, both to the facility and to communications and operations. We appreciate that breakfast, lunch, and snacks are served. We love the diverse, interesting, and educational curriculum.
My daughter started at launch pad when she had just turned 2 years old. They helped me fully potty train her and she developed beautifully, she was able to go to Kindergarten straight after room 5x She did not need to do TK because of how advanced she was, that is all thanks to Launch Pad, every single teacher that your child will encounter genuinely cares about each and every student. I now have a 1 year old son, who has started launchpad since the age of 3 months. I am happy with his progress thus far and can’t wait to see his journey!
This school is great. They really care about the children and the families. I love how they host different activities for families to enjoy with their children. My youngest son has been going here since he was an infant and loves this school and is always excited to start his day. Ms.Claudia is a gem!
I was a bit worried as a first time mom since my boys were never in school/daycare(covid babies), but my boys love it! They sometimes ask to go on a Saturday. Teachers are great, they are very attentive with the children and they actually care! My boys have learned so much ever since I enrolled them!
We have three kids who go to the NLB campus. Our 2 and 4 year olds have been here for over 2 years now, and we also have a 6 month old who has been in the infant class for 2 months, our daughter’s previous class. I feel safe and comfortable leaving my babies here, since it has become their second home. They always have something to look forward to, especially during the summer where they continually plan fun, hands-on activities such as water play, aquarium visits, farm animal visits, etc! Also, the teachers have successfully potty trained our now 4 year old, and are working with our 2 year old to do the same. As a fellow teacher, I am impressed with the focus on academics. Our oldest at the school has just turned 4, and is well on his way to reading fluently. He has also become such a strong writer, all thanks to Launch Pad! Although she is no longer with the school, I want to send a loving shoutout to Ms. Kirkprecia who has been a pivotal teacher in our kids lives. I would also like to send hugs to Ms. Vanessa, Ms. Jennifer, and Ms. Ana in the infant class, Ms. Sunntrar and Ms. Tierra in the toddler classes, and all of the teachers who put so much effort and energy into creating a productive, warm, and loving environment for our babies!
