About

 

Welcome to Loving Tree Family Childcare!

Come Visit Our Child Care Center
At Loving Tree Child Care we offer toddlers and preschoolers an environment full of learning, laughter and lots of love that encourages each child’s academic, social, emotional, and physical development in a safe, nurturing, and fun atmosphere.

The first five years of a child’s life are so important for growth and learning. We believe that children flourish best when they have many different ways of learning that entail experimentation, creativity, exploration, discovery and fun hands-on activities. We encourage our students to develop a love for learning, discovery, and independent thinking while also providing activities that encourage sociability and presentation skills.

We are open from 7:00am to 6:00pm, and offer care Monday-Saturday. We provide a culturally diverse learning environment by offering programs in English and also cater to Spanish, Chinese and Greek. Availability is limited, so contact us today to learn more and schedule a tour!

Philosophy:

Early childhood is a crucial stage in life!

It is foundational to cognitive, emotional, and social well-being, and contributes to long-term development of character, insight and creativity.

We are dedicated to nurturing children in a warm, relaxed environment with intellectually satisfying and playful activities tailored to each child’s individual needs.

 

Curriculum:

Your child receives our personalized attention in a loving and nurturing home environment.

We believe education should be enjoyable, fulfilling, and inspire the imagination.  Our professionally-planned preschool curriculum aims to teach playfully and creatively through group and individual activities. 

During our daily Circle Time, we cover the calendar and days of the week, weather, nursery rhymes, geography, alphabet, numbers, patterns, Chinese (Mandarin), Spanish, Greek, American Sign Language (ASL), and read stories.  Children discover a new theme every month, including social behavior, healthy eating, and fitness.
