Testimonials

Our experience at Lilyposa has been life changing! There are no words to express how grateful we are for Teacher Jenny and Teacher Chris!

Shortly after transferring to Lilyposa our son started thriving - an immediate noticeable difference! The amount of energy the teachers pour into each day is remarkable. They work hard to ensure they meet the unique needs of each kid!

I cannot overstate the positive impact Lilyposa has had on my family’s lives. Our daughter flourished in the welcoming, playful, earnest environment Chris and Jenny have created. Almost immediately, our home was filled with new songs, words, and games that our daughter brought back from Lilyposa. She found a love of taking care of others, for being a helper, and a newfound sense of confidence.

The community that Jenny and Chris foster in the classroom is so strong and welcoming, it radiates out. Every member of our family came away from Lilyposa with new friends, new connections, and a bigger village.
