LeafSpring School Early Learning Center 10408 Olio Road, Fishers, IN 46040

"Our children have attended Leaf Spring since they were infants. As we approach the time they will be "graduating," we look back on our time there with a lot of appreciation for how they helped mold our children. Their facility is clean, orderly, and top notch. The little extra things they do to help families (an onsite chef and nurse) are not little at all, but extremely impactful and helpful to us as parents. They have instilled in our kids a love for learning from the time they were barely old enough to talk. There has always been clear communication from the staff and owner. I appreciate how seriously they take the responsibility of caring for and educating our boys. They do not step on the parents toes in anyway, but they seek to come along side families to see the children become successful. Our sincerest appreciation and thanks to Justin Davis and his GREAT staff."

"Worst experience ever. Let me start by saying, the individuals who teach the classes there seem nice. Never had a problem with any of them personally. However, my real issue with them is how they handled my son. My son was a little behind on communication skills (we moved here from Korea when he was 2), and basically they did not want to provide services to him anymore, and demanded I pick him from daycare. Now I completely understand not wanting to provide services, that's their choice, but not giving any heads up or warning to me, was extremely detrimental to my work. Imagine an employed individual, suddenly having to leave work, and not being able to take their child to daycare for 2 weeks... Now the thing that really encouraged me to write this review, was how they promised to refund me for the week of service they never provided, but never refunded me. Every week, an ACH takes out money from your checking account for the week of service to your child. They kicked my son out on the day they did the ACH transaction (Tuesday I believe), so they took an extra 3.5 days of payment for services they never provided. They also took $150 for the 'fall fee', which he got about 1-2 weeks of benefits of (I won't really go into that though). While I was meeting their staff on the day they kicked him out, the lady who runs the ACH literally said "whoops, I ran the ACH this morning!". However, they assured me that this would be refunded, so I didn't really think much of it. Two weeks later, I got a check for the initial deposit, but no refund for the week of services they didn't provide. So I went to the school, waited 30 minutes to talk to the lady who runs the ACH (her office is behind the counter, I won't name names). She assured me once again, "you will be made whole", and she was going to ask the director "if" she could do the refund.. They already told me they were going to refund me for the services they never provided... but here we are months later, and I haven't heard from them. My advice to management: Be more professional when it comes to promised services/payments. Do not promise to provide a refund for services never provided, if you never had an intention of doing it in the first place. Give warnings and be clear on what you want from parents so we have time to prepare."

"This post may seem to be long but hope our own experience will give you some help on understanding how GREAT this place is and how sad it can be if you do not know about it :) We moved into our new home very near the daycare when I was pregnant with our oldest son. We had many other choices around this Geist area but hey after a tour both me and my husband were so sure that sending our son to Leafspring at Geist was no brainer! We are still so happy that we made the right decision and we have seen soooooo many fantastic growth at our oldest son daily! He wakes up in the morning and says mommy and daddy I love school so much!! This place is also welcoming culture differences and they help kids develop their best selves! Without a blink we now have our youngest son at Leafspring too!! He has also grown so so much in just less than a month!! Highly recommended to you with our loving hearts to kids! - Huizi"

"I enrolled my 2 year old twin daughters at LeafSpring and I can't say enough great things about this facility. I had them in other daycares/care previously, and in hindsight, those don't come close to what LeafSpring offers. The teachers and administration are wonderful with the parents and most importantly the kids. My twins adored their enthusiastic, engaged teacher and the wonderful activities. It was nice to see pictures and videos of them during the day through the app they use to keep the parent(s) updated (including meals, snacks, what they were learning that day, potty/diaper changes, etc). I was grateful for that constant communication. Some other positives was their classroom was always clean, a Chef was on staff to prepare the food, and the curriculum was amazing (even for the 2 year olds). They learned so much in a short time and were always tired (in a good way) when they came home from school due to the fun activities and outside time that kept them busy. The only reason my daughters are no longer enrolled at LeafSpring is because our family moved across the state. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have left. I highly recommend LeafSpring and have nothing negative to share! Amazing place."

"I would not recommend sending your child here especially if they have any type of food allergy. The school uses an app called tadpoles to update parents all day with their child’s daily activities, what/how much they are, potty times, nap times, etc… the app is not updated accurately and false information is put in at “bulk” for every child. The first week my child was there in the app It stated they served him chocolate pudding (he is allergic to dairy) and they stated “we update the app in bulk then go back and edit throughout the day but he wasn’t actually given the pudding” even though in the app It showed he ate “most of” the pudding. So they only offered him crackers and water as a snack that day which does not seem nutritious at all. The second week in the app It stated they served him chocolate cookies for the first snack and goldfish crackers for the second snack. When my husband went to pick him up I called to make sure he did not actually eat them. They went to check the package on the cookies to make sure they did not contain dairy (which should have been done prior to giving them to him) and then stated he didn’t actually eat the goldfish. Even though in the app It said he had ate all of both. No parent should have to worry about their child being giving an allergen whether accident or not it’s negligence. And if you aren’t even taking the time to ensure you are not offering something that could severely harm a child what else are you not taking the time to do throughout the day. The teachers seem a little overwhelmed with their duties throughout the day. I get the app is a lot to keep up with on top of caring for kids but if it’s not able to be done… then why do you offer the service to begin with ? Especially if everything you put into It is completely inaccurate."
