GETTYSBURGS GROWING PLACE

We cannot imagine a better daycare center! From the infant rooms on up through the preschool rooms, the teachers are just tremendous and the center's staff go above and beyond in every respect to make each and every day enriching, fun, and educational for the kids. We are blown away by how much both of our girls have absolutely blossomed in each and every stage of their development at GGP--not to mention, they truly LOVE coming into "school" every day. Each new room brings amazing, new, age-appropriate opportunities and intellectual/emotional/social flowering, and the teachers do a phenomenal job of transitioning the "new friends" into rooms with the "old friends." The teachers and staff do an incredible job with curriculum and with planning fun special events around holidays, etc., in addition to coming up with some very meaningful ways for kids to learn about and help contribute to the well-being of the larger Gettysburg community through special mini-service projects and other activities. They also do a terrific job of helping to instill core values of respect and kindness in all the kids, from the newborns up through the preschoolers, and foster creativity and curiosity every day. The teachers and staff show all the kids such love and dedication every day, and truly take the time to get to know each child's own unique story and personality. Communication between family and teachers/staff is also wonderful; we love all the updates and photos we receive daily about the kids' activities, eating/sleeping habits, etc., and the teachers and staff have been tremendous in helping us work collaboratively through various challenges, in discussing possible solutions or answers to questions we have, and in helping to reinforce behaviors and rules at school that we have at home. We truly consider the teachers and staff of GGP family, because they are dedicated to making our families part of theirs.

After 4 years we are still impressed with the Growing Place in every aspect. Their teachers are amazing, administration is involved, available, and communicates well with parents. The facility is immaculate and their COVID protocols make us feel very confident sending our children back. I cannot say one negative thing about any experience we have had. Our children love going to school and the daily updates are wonderful. It may be a little higher priced, but you truly get what you pay for.

Amazing daycare, awesome teachers, and my daughter loves it. We will definitely be having our other daughter attend once she's in pre-school!

Love the teachers and the facility is awesome. My kids love it here.
