Seven years ago, as both a teacher and a mom, my search for a quality childcare center for my own daughter led me to create The Giving Tree Academy.
What started as a vision for one small center has grown into so much more. Seven years later, we now have an additional building, an incredible team, and a community of families that means the world to us.
We couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve built, the children we’ve watched grow, and all of the families who have trusted us along the way.
Here’s to 7 years of The Giving Tree Academy! 🌳🎂❤️

Our preschoolers have been busy exploring the season through hands-on learning, apple painting and experiments, leaf activities, sensory play, fall-inspired art, and even a little leaf “clean-up!” 🧹 🍂
I think we might love Fall most of all! 🧡🍁 🍎

Our dramatic play centers are always a favorite across all ages! Our toddlers hosted their own tea party, not even realizing they were building language skills, practicing sharing and turn-taking, and using their imaginations, all through play. It’s amazing how much learning can happen over a cup of pretend tea! 🫖 ☕️

A month of sensory table fun in our Saplings classroom! Through touching, scooping, pouring, and exploring, our little learners strengthen fine motor skills, build language, encourage curiosity, and discover early concepts like cause and effect. These activities also give them opportunities to play alongside friends, practice sharing space, and build confidence...and most importantly, the messy play happens here at school! 😉

Painting with colorful ice cubes! 🎨🧊
This hands-on activity encouraged creativity, collaboration, sensory exploration, color mixing, and fine motor skills as the children used the frozen paints to create masterpieces.

Our Blossoms classroom created their own ice cream "flavors" by using pipettes to drip colorful watercolor paint onto their “ice cream scoops,” strengthening fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and concentration as they worked. This activity also gave them a fun way to explore colors, practice control, and create their own ice cream masterpieces!🍦

Our toddlers loved creating their jars of fireflies!
Using their fingers and brushes, they added glowing firefly bodies while building fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity. 🌟

This class will always hold such a special place in our hearts as the very first graduating class from our new preschool building. We are so incredibly proud of each of them and all they have learned, accomplished, and become this year.
These children are truly like family to us, many of them have been with us since they were babies! Watching them grow has been such a gift. We cannot wait to see all the amazing things they will do as they head off to kindergarten
Congratulations to The Giving Tree Academy Class of 2026! 🌳🤍🎓

Our Maples Classroom has been busy!
They planted peas, have been helping water and care for their gardens each day, and even created colorful garden snails. We love watching them explore, ask questions, and take pride in helping something grow! 🫛🐌
