Teacher Vicki is amazing with the little ones, and there isn't a day that goes by that my son doesn't bring home some creative craft that he made that day. He loves it, and asks when he can go back to school. The classes are small, and focused. Teacher Vicki has a plan for each day. There is also excellent opportunities to get/give feedback on how your child is doing. I would highly recommend this preschool.

We…read morestrive to make every child's experience fit their needs and to provide them with an age appropriate, familiar daily routine that builds self confidence, self-help and positive social skills and a love of learning in preparation of kindergarten. We encourage our preschoolers to direct their daily activities, so about one third of their day is determined by the children. Pre-k classes are offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning. Our M/W/F classes are designed specifically for children who will be moving up to kindergarten in the fall of the upcoming school year, so the child needs to be four by September 1st and consistently potty trained. PreK children attend for three hours per day, with ten children in a class. Beginning preschool classes are scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursday mornings. T/TH classes are designed for children who are three or four years old as a first experience working together in a group setting. We limit our beginning preschool classes to ten children who are three by September 1st of the year and are reliably potty trained.

I am happy to tell people that my toddler attends learning Tree in Canby. My daughter is always…read morehappy when I pick her up and it's more than just "daycare". I know that when I'm at work my child is not only being cared for but she is also playing, learning new things such as her ABCs, counting numbers, her colors, and occasionally some Spanish words. There is one teacher in particular that really stands out and her name is Val. Teacher Val takes a special interest in the little ones and my daughter still says her name when I drop her off in the morning even though she's in a new class. Val even helped my little one with potty training. She's not getting as much help with potty training since she has been in the bigger kids' classroom but she's still cared for and learning lots. I am pretty sure potty training was just something extra that Val helped out with. I hope that Val sees this review and knows how special she is! I also really like Caitlyn who I always see working hard when I come in. She's doing a great job running things!

The teachers are amazing. Ms Rebecca in the Giraffe room and Ms Sarah in the Gorilla room - just amazing. They helped my daughter with her potty training, and my son get ready for kindergarten with his reading/writing skills. When you call, Ms Caitlan, the director, is the best one of the group. Always helpful and super friendly. This location ISN'T like the Wilsonville location. A million percent different, and that much better. We would stay here forever if we could.The building itself is a LOT bigger than the other locations as well. Doesn't mean there are more kids, but more space, and a big outside play yard for the walking tots. Take my word - go. You'll love them.

They also clean everything nightly to make sure the environment is healthy. Highly recommended.
