UGRO on union deposit is a great childcare/learning center. My two sons have been attending since the summer and they have learned SO MUCH here. I am amazed by how smart they are becoming with the centers help. The staff is also great here. We love miss Dora & miss Rachel. When my sons first started here they were in separate rooms and were having a hard time adjusting to being apart let alone a new environment. The center moved them into a room together which made the transition so much easier for everyone because they had each other. I appreciate all of the staff very much for what they do on a daily basis.

They help your childs development with learning motor skills and different educational activites.

One of the best decisions I’ve made was enrolling my kids at this U-GRO location. My kids started out by attending their summer camp and we loved it so much that my son stayed to attend preschool. The teachers are amazing and super nice, I’ve never had any issues with them. They are great with updating the parents and I love the fact that I have camera access to see my little one anytime during the day. My son always comes home to tell me how much fun he has at school. Plenty of fun activities and curriculum to keep the kids engaged! I would highly recommend!

My son has been attending this center since he was 2 years old and he loves it! The teachers are AMAZING, and I'm not just saying that because I am a teacher here as well! All the teachers know every child in the center, even if it's not a child that is in their classroom! The care and concern that is shown to my child, puts me at ease, knowing that not only will he be taken care of, but he will also be learning as well! His teachers do a great job of letting me know how he's doing and progressing. They see me as a parent first, which means a lot to me! Overall, the center is cozy and fun!!

I am a mother who deeply researched child care before making this decision. I have always taken care of my kids myself, and no one else had ever cared for them before. I was looking for a place that truly felt like home—happy, warm, and cozy. From the moment I walked through the door for our tour, I felt that comfort. Nicole welcomed me with the biggest smile and immediately made me feel at ease. She was so kind, loving, and reassuring. All of the teachers have taken such wonderful care of my two kids. This is only their second week, and I can already see how gentle, understanding, and loving they are. You can truly feel how much love they give to every child in their classroom. I am beyond happy that I chose this center after such a long search and making such a big change for myself and my kids. Huge shoutout to all the amazing teachers here—you truly deserve an award!
