Leaf Spring School At Geist

A True Gem of a School! Leaf Spring has truly exceeded all of my expectations as a preschool. From the moment we enrolled our daughter, we have felt completely at ease and confident that she is in the best hands possible. The owner is incredibly involved and genuinely cares about building personal relationships with every family. He goes above and beyond to make sure parents feel heard and is always open to feedback or suggestions for improvement. That kind of leadership sets the tone for the whole school. One of the things that gives me the most peace of mind is the on-site nurse who is present every day. Knowing there is a medical professional on-site at all times is such a rare and amazing feature for a school and speaks volumes about how much they prioritize the well-being of the children. The facility itself is spotless—cleanliness and hygiene are clearly a top priority. On top of that, the security system and safety protocols are top-notch, which makes drop-offs and pick-ups so much less stressful. The teachers and staff are warm, friendly, and truly passionate about what they do. You can tell they genuinely care for each child and take the time to make learning fun and engaging. From the nurturing environment to the incredible communication and care, Leaf Spring is a place I would recommend to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and high-quality early education experience. We feel so lucky to be part of this school community!

LeafSpring is a very special place, there is no other way to say it. From the moment we met with the staff to tour the school, we knew this is where we wanted to send our newborn. From the friendliness of the staff, the on-site nurse, and even the proximity to our house, we could not ask for a better place to help us raise our son. He is now 11 months old and absolutely loves his teachers, and my wife and I can tell they truly care about him. The Procare app they use to send updates throughout the day is awesome, and we love seeing the daily photos. If you are considering sending your child to a school, please be sure to include LeafSpring in your visits. You will not be disappointed.

⸻ We’ve been part of the LeafSpring School at Geist family for the past 8 years, and it’s truly been a blessing—especially as a military and civil service family. The staff has always gone above and beyond to provide a nurturing, structured, and safe environment where our children have thrived both academically and socially. From the infant program through preschool and after-school care, the consistency and care shown by the teachers and leadership team have been exceptional. They understand the unique challenges all families face and have always made us feel welcomed, supported, and valued. We couldn’t ask for a better place for our children to grow, learn, and feel at home. Highly recommend LeafSpring at Geist to any family looking for quality early childhood education and care!

We’ve had the pleasure of being part of this preschool community for almost 7 years now, with two of our children having graduated from the school and one still currently enrolled—and we couldn’t be happier. From day one, the staff have been nurturing, professional and deeply committed to each child’s growth. The teachers and Admin are truly committed to the welfare of the children. They are mindful of each child’s personality, learning style and emotional needs. Our kids have always felt seen, supported and encouraged here. The curriculum is thoughtfully balanced—creative, play-based learning blended with strong early childhood development principles. We’ve seen tremendous growth in our children's confidence, social skills and early literacy, all while they’ve been having fun and building friendships. Communication with parents is great. We’ve always felt informed and welcomed as partners in our children’s development. The school also goes above and beyond to create a joyful, safe and stimulating environment both indoors and outdoors. This preschool has become like a second home to our family and we’re grateful for the lasting impact it has had on our children. We recommend it wholeheartedly to any parent looking for a loving, high-quality early learning experience.

My family is extremely satisfied with our experience at LeafSpring over the last 2.5 years. Both my children attend the school, one in an older class, and another in a baby/toddler class. Both sets of teachers (and all classroom aids) truly care about my children's well-being and development and do a great job communicating with my husband and me. Teachers give frequent updates throughout the day through the procare app and the owner and administrators also keep very open lines of communication with parents. The school also offers weekly Spanish lessons and Musical Yoga as part of the standard curriculum for all ages! Another huge perk is the Get Well Place. Nurse Kelly is phenomenal - I really cannot say enough about the care she provides. Kelly and the Get Well Place have literally saved the day many times caring for a sick kid until one of us could pick them up early and/or allowing for reservations in the clinic so that our sick child can be dropped off and cared for and we can still work knowing that they are receiving the attention they require to get healthy. If a child is with Nurse Kelly, she sends temp checks, medication administration, and other health updates through the app as well. I always recommend LeafSpring to those looking for a childcare facility!
