I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My son started at Here We Grow Academy when he was about 12 weeks old and attended until he started kindergarten. He’s in the 2nd grade now and still talks about Here We Grow. I felt he was in a safe loving place with caregivers that truly cared for the kids and spent a lot of time making the day a fun experience.

When we drive past Here We Grow to this day he says “mama look! I miss it there!”
