“As a Ducklings parent, I have witnessed firsthand how the Ducklings’ philosophy supports every aspect of a child’s development path, lays the foundation for a lasting love for learning, and lets children play and explore at their own pace while integrating nurturing structure,” said Gricco. “Our teachers are our greatest asset, and I have thoughtfully selected individuals I would want guiding and caring for my own children—who have not only earned early childhood education credentials but who most importantly have a love for education.”
