Jasmina Gudovic

Both of my girls went to this great childcare and preschool.
We will always cherish wonderful memories from the Growing Room! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, nice environment and strong teaching ethic make it best choice! We didn’t have a single issue or trouble during “our time” in this great place (4+ years)! To add - summer camps - also great experience! I would recommend the Growing Room from the bottom of my heart! Even to these days, when passing by the school, we “waive” and “say hello” to this beautiful school. The director/owner, Ms. Lydia is the one of the best in this field and great person!
Love from Gudovic family!

I visited several daycare centers before choosing Growing Room Enrichment Center. Once I met the Director Mrs. Jimenez and had a tour of the facility, I knew it was the right place for my boys ages 24 months, and 3 years old. They provide a clean and safe environment with nutritious meals. When choosing a place for my kids cleanliness and safety is very important as my kids will be spending most of their day in daycare. The director is a state and local rule follower who is very passionate about her students and families. Knowing that my kids will be in a place that provides fun and creative learning environment with wonderful caring teachers allows me to go to work with a peace of mind that my children are in great hands. I know that's how every parent wants to feel.

We love this school. My son went here for 2 years. The director is fantastic and all the teachers are caring while also demanding good behavior. My son thrived here. Ms. Sam is our favorite teacher.

I love Growing Room! My son Miles has been turned away from TWO other daycares (who say they focus on families) because of his ankle braces and delays. Lydia and her staff are very well trained and happy with my son. Miles loves his teacher, Miss Megan, and she is very patient with him as he seems to be one of the more emotional kids they have. They regularly do lots of fun artwork, enriching activities and have fun with the kids. The lunches they serve the kids are nutritionally balanced and my son eats well with them. They actually care about my son, which is a MUST! We love Growing Room and as a mom I can highly recommend them!
