Why Gregg House
At Gregg House, the true measure of our impact comes from the voices of those who know us best—our families and our community. From parents who entrust us with their children’s early learning to neighbors, partners, and local leaders who champion our mission, these stories reflect the heart of who we are.
This page highlights the experiences and perspectives of those who’ve seen our programs in action and felt the difference we make. We invite you to explore their words and discover why Gregg House continues to be a trusted part of the Lynn community.
Parent Spotlight
We are proud to shine this month’s Parent Spotlight on Eliany, a remarkable mom whose story reflects strength, resilience, and hope.
Eliany is the devoted mother of three children, two in our School Age Program and one in our Preschool. When her children first came to Gregg House, they were living in the custody of their grandparents. Through hard work, dedication, and love, Eliany has reunited her family and become a model of perseverance for us all.
Today, Eliany is in college pursuing her dream of becoming a teacher. Inspired by her own journey and the support she has received, she plans to focus on trauma-informed teaching and social-emotional learning so she can one day help children and families facing challenges similar to her own.
In her own words: “Gregg House has been a huge part of the kids’ and my journey of healing and growing. With the help and motivation of not only the preschool staff but also the after-school staff, things have been less hard on days that felt really heavy. All the support has encouraged me to start a career in early childhood education so I can help other children and families like the one I found myself experiencing not too long ago.”
We are truly honored to be part of Eliany’s story and inspired by the incredible example she sets for her children and our entire community.

“Best place to send your kids! The staff is incredibly friendly and my daughter who is now 8 has been there for 2 years and always leaves happy. The staff always works with me when there is a problem and I always feel welcome. They are always doing fun activities for the kids and do alot for the holidays. I would recommend all of the Gregg House programs as my 2 smaller girls have attended the toddler center since a few months of age.”
