This daycare is an answer to our prayers. Their times are convenient, the stuff is really nice and helpful. My daughter loves it there, shes in the Squirrel room (the 2s) and she quickly made friends and adjusted to the place. She loves her teacher and now she wants to take everything she has in the house to show it to her teacher (which I think shows how much she loves her). The place is really small, it was a concern for us at the beginning as we are used to these big centers but it turned out the best things for kids, the small place makes it feel more like a home for kids who are always close to each other and their teacher. Its easier to keep an eye on the kids too which makes it safer. I am a TA and have different schedule every week so each week I come by to pick up my daughter at different times and have always been pleased with what I see. The children are always either gather around the teacher who is sitting in the middle reading them a book, not in the circle time type of reading but more like how I read books for my daughter, sometimes shes holding someones hands and theyre all acting silly, etc etc. Its all more like the things we do at home than the strict follow the schedule type of activities though they have schedules and organized activities. Their ratio is wonderful too. even with the drop in kids I have never found more than 9 kids in the room and when they reach 9 the teachers daughter is always there to help so its never the teacher by herself with 9 kids. I could go on and on about how much I like the school but Ill stop here. I highly highly recommend it

We started using Tree Tops for drop-in daycare so I could go to doctors appointments without having to take my toddler with me. We have used them several times and will continue to do so. I stopped by to check it out, with my child, a week before using their drop-in care to meet the people, teachers, and other children. My child and I stayed and observed the toddler class to get a feel for the place and the teachers, and to introduce my child to "day care." My toddler was immediately comfortable there, played freely with the other children, and both the teachers and the children were very welcoming and engaged with my child and vise-a-versa. The facility seems very "fun" -- its decorated like an actual tree house inside and the teachers are completely engaged with the children, playing with them constantly and having group activities to keep them active and learning. Weve used Tree Tops almost weekly now and my toddler loves going there. She has not experienced even an iota of hesitation to stay there without me or my husband being present. She enjoys the kids and the teachers, and the office staff has been stellar with their organization, flexibility, and attentiveness. So far, so good - I recommend Tree Tops highly!

I checked out tree tops because at the time my work schedule required me to work Saturdays and I needed somewhere to drop in my daughter. She spent a month there that way just on Saturdays and they did so good with her I moved her there for her normal day care routine. It is on my way to work and the staff knows each kid individually. My daughters teacher stopped teaching her class and I was a little worried that they wouldnt get someone in who would handle the hard headed kid of mine, but they found a teacher that my daughter loves as much as her old one. They all call my daughter the social butterfly of the day care because she greets everyone and can tell you which kid goes with which parent. She loves her teachers and has made lots of new friends there. She has really come out her shell and learned to talk more and is working on potty training. I would recommend this place to any and everyone.

I was looking for a drop-in place for my 4-year-old that was open later than the 10pm most close. A sign on front door said to go around the other entrance because it was nap time. I opened the door went in and waited. And waited. Three children walked by to use the restroom, but no adults. I looked down the hallways and saw no adults and all the lights were out. I left. After looking them up on DFPS, they had an incident last year where a child was left outside and a stranger reached over the fence, picked up the child, and returned the child (a 2-year-old) to the staff inside. I really wanted this place to work out, but I could never feel comfortable leaving my child here.

My 3-year old has been going here full-time for a little over a year. The staff are wonderful. My son has learned numbers from 1-20 in 2 languages, and mastered the alphabet. They seem to have fairly low turnover with teachers, which I love. Also love their flexible hours, and rates are extremely reasonable. The kids get plenty of outdoor time, with separate play areas for the little kids so they dont get ran over by the big kids. Only downsides are you have to pack a lunch, the parking is limited and only on the street, so pickup during peak hours can be a bit chaotic. Also the neighbors hate that the school is in their neighborhood and can be super rude and confrontational.

We are very happy with Tree Tops! We have been taking our 2 year old there two days per week for about four months. She loves it! The teachers are very warm to her and do lots of hands-on activities like finger painting, shaving cream, Play Doh, etc. I love how much flexibility they have with scheduling.

It really is a great place for kids. Their hours are convenient, and its easy on me as a parent. I would recommend buying blocks of time to save a little money and have the extra time available for whenever. Dont everyone go sign up at once though, or they will be booked next time I call!

Our 3 y/o loves it here. We used them for drop-in care a few months before transitioning him there full time, but there have been no major issues for him or us since the move. The staff has always been responsive to any of our concerns and we highly recommend them to anyone that asks!

Love Tree Tops! Wonderful teachers with low turnover. Two playgrounds and lots of outdoor play time. Arts and crafts each day. Open longer hours than most day cares and reasonable pricing.
