U-GRO is honored to have been chosen to serve as the childcare operator for the Brethren Village Retirement Community since 2007. Our curriculum includes an intergenerational program with “grandfriends” from the residential community, which combines their talents and life skills in daily and special events. Conveniently located off Lititz Pike, this modern facility makes it easy to serve the needs of employee families as well as our surrounding communities.

Unlike other child care centers, our local U-Gro doesn't automatically close when the local school systems close. This saves us a lot of inconvenience and money.

I love U-Gro because my daughter is learning more then I could ever teach her on my own. She is not only learning numbers, letters, shapes and colors but also learning how to become a friend, how to use her words and how to care about another child. It amazes me every day when I pick my daughter up and she is telling me a story about her day. And she is only two. Her vocabulary has expanded so much due to the amazing staff and U-Gro and my husband and I are very thankful for each and everyone of them.
