Celebrating 10 Wonderful Years!

Opening The Launchpad 10 years ago was one of the scariest yet most rewarding decisions I’ve ever made. Many thought I was crazy to leave the security of working in schools, but I followed my heart and passion. While there are usually ups and downs in any journey, I can honestly say I’ve experienced only ups and have never looked back.

Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many wonderful families and their amazing children, who have truly become like family to me. Your support, trust and love have made this journey incredibly special. Here’s to many more years of learning, growing and creating beautiful memories together!

Thank you for being a part of The Launchpad family. Love from Debi and the team x 🎉❤️
