At the time of your tour, prospective families will receive a reference sheet of currently enrolled families. This is a wonderful tool to use for personally talking to fellow parents about their experiences at Growing By Leaps & Bounds.

Hello. My name is Abby Hodgkins, also known as Miss Abby, & I’m GBLB’s owner & director. With the knowledge acquired from my Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education, as well as a few business courses, I opened the doors to GBLB in 2004. I also hold certifications through the Department of Early Education & Care of MA as Director 2, Lead Preschool and Lead Infant/​Toddler teacher. I have been excitedly involved in the field of child care since 1996, & gained some of my hands-​on knowledge from a prior teaching position of 7 years at a private child care center in Hamilton. I have a wonderful husband, Ben, & we have three children of our own, all of which have attended GBLB. Henry is 8 & Harrison is 7 & both have completed their years at GBLB and are now in 1^st & 2^nd grade. Our daughter Harper is 3 years old and attends GBLB’s PS program.
