Description: U-GRO Bent Creek is a modern childcare facility conveniently located on a two-acre campus in Brighton, near the Fruitville Pike. We don't know of another childcare facility like it in the Susquehanna Valley! Eleven classrooms, a large indoor two-story play room and three large separate outdoor playgrounds provide a wonderful environment to learn and play. But that's only part of the story!
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
