At this time my daughter is my second child to attend Urban Sprouts. I didn't give it a second thought of where she would go. My son went to the Midland location and it was a rough transition. But with the help of the teachers and staff, my son was able to be himself, thrive and learn. From day one the experience for all of us was excellent! All I can say is wow... ?the individualized care, comfort, and professionalism is above reproach.
