Lead is a clean and well-organized center. The education program helps children become the best they can be. The staff is exceptional and makes every child feel special and seen. Not only do the kids have fun, but the center also nurtures them, allowing each individual child to grow to their full potential. I absolutely love this place and can’t recommend it enough!
