About Here We Grow Early Learning Center
Here We Grow Early Learning Center began over 23 years ago when our founder, JoAnne Albrecht, couldn’t find the quality care she wanted for her own children - so she created it herself.
Today, we’re a trusted, growing community serving children ages 6 weeks to 12 years. In January 2026, we expanded with a second location, Coral Cove Childcare and Preschool, in partnership with the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium - providing their staff child care as an employee benefit while also welcoming families from the community.
Our team is dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can thrive and where staff feel supported and valued. We believe in strong relationships, teamwork, and continuous growth.
