Hearts Leap new beginnings program
hi all,
we’re considering hearts leap for our child and wondered if anyone had experience with their new “beginnings” program for infants/toddlers.
And for those who have been at the regular school for multiple years, have you ever had challenges with getting the schedule you wanted from year to year?
Thanks in advance!

We're new to the Beginnings program (on week 4 now), but we're really pleased! Caretakers are great with the little ones, and the space is beautiful.
We've been really happy with HLB. The teachers are responsive to the needs of each child and are respectful in their caregiving. There is a lot of independent play time but with thoughtful activities set up that the kids can choose to engage with. In the older Aspen Room, it feels more like a 2's preschool class but with a little extra love (which could be a challenge if your child isn't ready for that). They are a few downsides - they aren't flexible with things like switching schedules and there are some administrative hiccups / lack of responsiveness that seem related to the fact that the program is so new. But overall, it's been a wonderful experience and we're happy to be there.
