Meet Yacova Leifert

Hi, I’m Yacova Leifert, a mother of five and an early childhood educator with over 20 years of experience. I’m also the Founder and CEO of The Joy-Based Learning Enrichment Center, where I provide English and math enrichment to students of all ages, including those with special needs, ADHD, ASD, and dyslexia.

Beyond the classroom, my passion lies in empowering parents to raise confident, resilient, and happy children. I believe that every child thrives when given the right support, and every parent deserves the right tools to guide them. That’s why I combine Montessori principles, Love Languages, and a gentle parenting approach to help families create deeper connections with their children—without the stress and overwhelm.

Whether through personalized coaching, educational enrichment, or parent support, I’m here to make your parenting journey smoother, more joyful, and deeply fulfilling.

Let’s work together to nurture the best in your child—and in you.
