About the Provider

Description: The Tree House curriculum is built upon the philosophy that children learn best by doing.

Learning is not accomplished simply by repeating what someone else says. It requires active participation, thinking and experimentation to see how things work firsthand.

Our experienced staff guides and encourages children through carefully planned activities that allow them to develop at their own ideal rate. Our small class sizes help foster educational and social development in a setting where the children feel safe to learn and grow.

We strive to develop self-assuredness in children and to teach them the skills that they will use for the rest of their lives. The foundations we set today will form the foundation for their academic learning in years to come.

Though it is a nonprofit service provided to the community by Presbyterian Church, the Tree House welcomes all children — regardless of religious beliefs or affiliation.
