testimonials

My son attended Pre-K3 at The Growing Tree Learning Center and is now in Pre-K4. Last year, he had an amazing experience- from adjusting to a new environment, learning different skills and making quick progress with potty training. His teacher Ms. Johana insisted the children to wear comfortable clothes like sweatpants to help prevent accident when using the restroom. This contributed a successful transition in a short period of time. The staff has been very helpful and informative when addressing any concerns. Ms. Martha Santos, the administrative assistant, is a sweet, caring, and welcoming person, along with Ms. Viola. I look forward to Pre-K4 being another wonderful school year filled with positive experiences and a warm, nurturing environment where the children can continue to thrive.

I have been working at The Growing Tree for the past two years as an Administrative Assistant. During my time here, I have learned a great deal from both my supervisors and the teachers. The work environment is wonderful, safe, friendly, and supportive. The Growing Tree truly cares for its employees and is always there to help whenever we need assistance.
