Child Development and Educational Programs

At “The Tree”, we understand that your child’s education and care is priority; and that choosing the right program is a big decision. Our early educational programs include interactive curriculum, an on-site STEM lab, where we allow our children to explore the world around them through environmental, robotics, and knowledgeable child development professionals that meet the needs of all children.

To partner with our hard-working parents, we provide before and after school programs, summer camps, on-site STEM lab early open and extended closing to accommodate your busy schedule. At “The Tree”, parents can go to work knowing their children are happy, safe, and cared for.

STEM Education refers to an educational approach which integrates more than one of the educational disciplines – science, technology, engineering and math. STEM may seem like a complicated subject matter for young children, but they are born Scientists! Toddlers and preschoolers spontaneously engage in STEM activities on a regular basis. It is an exciting paradigm for giving children the tools to compete in the highly competitive global economy.
