"I’d like to share that the training gave me new insights into how small daily interactions can significantly impact children’s learning and development. I’m excited to apply these strategies and see the positive effects on the children I work with."

"This training really showed that you can incorporate science into a lot of different aspects in the classroom. It doesn't always need to be structured or overly planned out. You can classify or observe other aspects. I will try and incorporate the 5 science elements more in my classroom. I found the training engaging because it included practical examples and interactive activities that I can apply with the children."

"I am very happy to announce that I have been awarded my CDA credentials on this day. It was a long journey with many hours of Saturday class interactions, building up the portfolio, and finally setting up the visit and the exam.

It would not have been possible without the Leaps and Bounds program and individual dedicated support from Ms Green. I am very delighted to have earned the credentials and make good friends throughout the journey. I look forward to continue having a long-lasting connection with the support system while I embark on my next goals. 

Thank you again for all the support provided throughout."

"Thank you for a great class!"

"I truly enjoyed the training and found it both engaging and inspiring. I appreciate all the support and resources you and your team provide for professional development. I will definitely review the upcoming training calendars and hope to join more sessions in the future. Thank you again for your guidance and encouragement. I look forward to continuing my learning journey with your programs"

"Six years ago, I had an opportunity to attend this amazing CDA class through Leaps and Bounds Family Services but life hit me hard. I had a baby, got married, I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and I never could take advantage of this program. But the opportunity to participate has come back around full circle and I can receive my CDA. For me, earning my CDA will be a great way to sharpen my teaching skills and stay up to date on the latest developments in early childhood education. I am so blessed. Thank you."

"Thank you so so much for the assessment and the parents' conference form that was a wonderful and thoughtful idea to give parents time to think of any specific matters and write down ahead of time, be prepared, and comfortable. All of the training materials were helpful. Thank you so much for letting me be in class and signing me up at the last minute, I appreciate you so much!"

"I think it was awesome of you to allow our Infant/Toddler cohort sessions to continue with your support. These classes are supportive to childcare workers that help us to continue.

Thanks, you rock."

"Thank you! These trainings are always so great. Thank you for the wonderful resources. :)"

"Omg! Thank you so much for the love, support, and this opportunity. Thank you for another chance as well with the portfolio class. It was very much needed and appreciated. I cried this morning, I wasn't expecting the results to come back that quickly. I am proud of myself for all I've been through. I made it. I did it. I can't thank you enough. I love you, Mrs. Green. Thank you. Big hugs for you!

Thank you & Leaps N Bounds Family Services 💕"

"It allowed me to gain new perspectives and better understand how others approach similar situations in childcare. it was insightful to see things through different lenses while also reflecting on my own views. I really enjoyed this class. 10/10!"

"I absolutely love the trainings you guys have to offer. Especially the webinars that can be accessed any time of the day. This method of PDA training works best for me."
