Backed by 20+ years of research, LENA Grow focuses on the key marker of quality in early childhood education: teacher-child interactions. Or, what LENA calls “conversational turns.”

The best investments in early childhood education deliver proven results. Imagine equipping yourself with data-driven professional development that improves outcomes for both teachers and children. AND it documents its own impact. That’s LENA Grow.

Because we believe that in early education, what gets measured gets improved.

LENA would be really beneficial for other teachers, especially if they're just starting out in early education. It just gives them a completely different insight into children and working with children.

"We were really missing this piece [coaching/reflection]. It's huge, been so beneficial. Teachers may not notice right away the change it has, but I notice it. I notice it in how individual children are now saying more, how teachers interact overall"
