I couldn’t ask for anything better when it comes to feeling that your kids are in good hands. The staff at GPA is just amazing. All the teachers are always smiling, and from the moment you step foot in the building you can feel the positive environment. Joanna, Jenny, Mariela, Sonia, Mirta, Rebeca, and Jessica — thank you for your hard work and your incredible dedication.
I would give GPA 10/10 stars if I could! Every day when I drop my little one off, I know they are surrounded by the best in an environment overflowing with love. From the visionary leadership of the director to the fantastic administration team, the dedicated teachers who treat each child with care, and the supportive staff—our experience at GPA Sterling has been truly unmatched. Not only do I feel confident that my child is in an excellent program, but I also see them thriving! The school cultivates & fosters strong cognitive, social, physical, and emotional development every day. Communication is exceptional, with live updates from the classroom via an app and weekly center-wide and classroom newsletters. GPA truly stays on top of everything! This is not just a fantastic institution—GPA is a community we are deeply grateful to be a part of. If you’re looking for the perfect place for your little one, don’t overlook Golden Path Academy. We are so fortunate to have such a stellar center of learning in Sterling and Stephenson, VA!
GPA is by far the best run daycare in all of Northern Virginia. My kids have been enrolled for the past 3 years and between them we have been through the toddler class all the way through to private Kindergarten. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my kids in the care of all of the amazing staff here. They are truly like one big family and they make all of their students feel part of that family. There is virtually no staff turnover which is unheard of at daycares. Lindsey (the director) is so amazing at her job she really does care for each and every student and parent. The communication on a day to day basis is great you can always message the teachers and check in at any time alongside receiving pictures/activity updates. I also wanted to mention the summer camp for K and older is an amazingly run program from the camp staff to the activities- they went on so many field trips and my son had the time of his life. So if you are looking for daycare, private K, or an afterschool program- GPA is by far the best choice!!!
The staff here are very kind and amazing. We are always greeted with a smile. My son and daughter go here and enjoy their time in their classroom. Ms. Keairra is so considerate and passionate about keeping us updated and informed on our children. We sincerely thank you and the staff for everything you do!
My family is extremely grateful to have found GPA. I cannot say enough about the quality of their program, staff and overall atmosphere. In late 2017 we moved into the NoVa area and needed care for our then 5 and 3 year old. GPA’s modern facility, welcoming staff and structured play/learn/faith program made our initial decision easy. My children immediately felt comfortable in their new setting thanks to the welcoming arms of every single GPA staff member they interacted with. Since we started the program continues to grow and strengthen with regular Spanish classes, soccer and dance options, holiday celebrations and more classroom options. The faith based undertones of the program are welcomed in our family and have helped my children understand their developing faith. Over a year and a half later I still tell my family one of the best “finds” in our move to NoVa is GPA.
