Big smile on everybody's face specially teachers whenever we go to drop off and pick up our son. They are very accommodating and so very helpful to help with our kid's transition. The level of trust and peace that U GRO gives us knowing that our son is in great hands is priceless!!!

Our child has learned so much to get him prepared for kindergarten. Learning to write, listening more, interested in reading. He is taught manners and how to behave, very important characteristics. We have been impressed with the skills learned at U-GRO and will send our next child there.

We transferred our son to U-Gro a year ago and we could not be happier. The teachers are amazing and he is always engaged in fun educational activities.

My son absolutely loves going to school. He even asks to go on the weekends. He comes home excited about the activities from the day.

The teachers and staff have been great with the transition into a more structured learning environment for our son. Despite some tears at drop off, he's been able to express to us that his teachers take good care of him and that he's having fun with the different activities planned for the class.
