Peace of Mind

The Get Well Place helps support children with short-term illnesses or unique needs,
giving families peace of mind knowing their child receives the loving, professional attention they require.

Fully Staffed Care

Staffed by licensed nurses, the Get Well Place provides backup care for ill children with common childhood illnesses such as colds, flu, stomach bugs, and more. Get Well Place nurses can administer medication and first aid to children as needed and work to prioritize overall health and well-being in our schools.

A Safe Place

The Get Well Place is architecturally separated from the rest of the school and can accommodate various illnesses. After a quick assessment by our nurse, children are assigned to classrooms based on diagnoses to avoid cross-contamination. Our skilled nurses follow strict health guidelines, helping to ensure that children recover without worrying about catching another illness.

Different Needs, Special Care

For children with special needs, the Get Well Place can be a comforting environment that enriches their in-school experience. Our professional nursing staff is available to children with unique needs who require nursing support. Children admitted to this program may be regularly enrolled in LeafSpring School or in the Get Well Place. Services vary by location, so please call to check with your local LeafSpring School.

Seriously THE BEST daycare EVER.
