I really can't say enough about this place. My daughter has been coming here for over 2 years and I…read morecan't express my gratitude enough to the teachers and directors in this place. Hats off to all of them, forgive me if I forget any names, Ashley, Lisa, Mary Beth, Carlene and everyone who has made my daughter feel like at home when she is there. I have to say that leaving Serendipity is bittersweet, my daughter made some very good friends with some of the kids.. She learned so much, such an amazing program and teachers do love those kids.. They are so passionate about what they do... If I could keep my daughter forever there I could.. It's worth every dime. Thank you for everything you all did with my daughter.. I am extremely grateful for all of you there.

My son started at Learn & Grow Academy last month after we moved from Chicago. He had previously…read moreattended a well known daycare in Lincoln Park. We cannot believe the significant difference in his growth and development in the course of a month! Cecil, Lisa and Leza are all amazing and treat each child as their own. We receive daily reports, pictures and updates documenting his process as well as being able to see his new skills at home on a daily basis! He was previously not talking and now he makes animal noises and started saying words. Our family is so happy with this establishment and its wonderful staff. We highly recommend Learn & Grow to other families in the area!

I sent my sons to this school 15 years ago and they loved it so when my daughter was ready for…read morepreschool I couldn't wait to enroll her here. My daughter attended the 3yr and 4yr old preschool program and was so ready for kindergarten I was able to have her tested and she was enrolled early. Now she attends the summer day cam program when she is out of school. She loves the teachers and the activities. Me, I love that the program focuses not only on school readiness but also on the core values of a Christian upbringing. Reading and writing are taught hand in hand with being kind and helpful to each other. I would definately recommend this preschool!

It is run systemically and professionally, but there is still so much warmth every time my family walks through the doors.

I'm extremely grateful for Jenny and Rich + the entire team that helps run the school. The teachers truly care and it always shows.

This is a continuation of my previous review left on 12/11/25…read more The DCFS investigation confirmed that Launch Enrichment violated Illinois confidentiality and record keeping standards. DCFS substantiated findings that identifiable child and family information was shared without proper written parental consent and that records were maintained inaccurately. While not every concern raised resulted in a citation, DCFS required corrective action, confirming this was a compliance issue rather than a disagreement over behavior or expectations. Records are a bit buried but for anyone doing their research, DCFS licensing citations and monitoring reports are public record and available at https://sunshine.dcfs.illinois.gov. Navigate to the Reports tab, then click Monitoring Report Search, and enter "Launch Enrichment" in the Provider field. The monitoring report associated with the "2900" location is available by selecting the PDF icon. Download the PDF and google the citation numbers for definitions. Again, hoping this will help future families when researching daycare facilities.
