CARING
The UCECP emphasizes character development, promotes care and concern for others, and works to instill a sense of respect and gratitude for the blessings in our children’s lives. There is no direct religious curriculum at the UCECP. We embrace families of all faiths and welcome all to share their religious traditions.
-
INNOVATIVE
UCECP is proud to provide a NEW and innovative approach to sharing timely, visual observations with families. Parents see what and how their child is learning as it is happening!
Families of UCECP receive weekly photos and anecdotal notes of their children’s learning, sent directly to their e-mail address. Your child’s participation and growth will be seen like never before!
-
RECOMMENDED
Established in 1955, we pride ourselves in generations of amazing memories and relationships made as the oldest preschool in Hinsdale.

Testimonials

My son is in the Early Learning Lab at Union. I could not be more pleased with his teachers and their attentiveness to the children, communication with the parents and, most importantly, their ability to lead activities and engage this young age group! I absolutely love their “hands-on” approach to making learning and discovering fun (and sometimes messy!). This program continues to exceed my expectations!

As a parent and a teacher myself, there is nothing more I want for my daughter than for her to enjoy going to school and to love learning. For the past three years, UCECP has not only fostered her academic development, but supported her social and emotional growth as well. I have nothing but positive things to say about the programs and staff at UCECP.

The teachers at UCECP take their time with my child and listen to what she has to say. They stay in touch with the parents and make us a part of what they are learning. It’s so fun to see her excited about school and be positive about learning and UCECP really has perfected the integration of art, play and learning!

Mother toddler has been a wonderful experience for my son and me. My son gets to enjoy nurturing play time with his peers while I get to connect with other moms. It has been a very valuable experience. I love this program!

Union allows my children to learn actively, be themselves, and explore the world around them. It teaches them to engage in the learning process instead of just watching. Kids need to be kids first, and the teachers and classrooms understand that.

My little girl wakes up wanting to go to KinderBOOST!. Her teachers have made learning so much fun — she doesn’t realize she’s been learning. After 2 years with UCECP, my daughter is flourishing in Kindergarten — with a solid foundation and a real love for learning that has been nurtured by her teachers. I can’t say enough about what the teachers have done for her and how much we love UCECP.
