“We wanted to let you know how grateful we are to have Longleaf in our lives! The transition to Durham has been a difficult one but knowing that M is blossoming under your care has been so affirming and positive! We love Longleaf and are so happy that your space, energy and time create such a cool learning environment for all of our community!”

“I can not thank you enough for creating the best possible first school for P! Seriously way better than I ever could have imagined! My understanding of nature is limited-I wanted her to have a better grasp of that, as well as the space and freedom to play, become a better friend and just be a little kid for a little longer...She has learned so much. How to be a better communicator, a kinder sister, and an overall better human because of you. What surprised me the most was how much I have learned from you about being in nature, being patient, conflict management between kids, how less is really more when it comes to toys and play, I could go on and on. I can not wait for you to be the first teacher for the boys!”
