A Tree of Life Early Care and Natural Play

As I sat with my 14 month old for dinner, I noticed he «signed» «more»… just another reason why we LOVE Tree of Life and Mrs. Rachelle!!! She has been so amazing in so many ways, including teaching my baby sign language!!! My son has been going to A Tree of Life since he was 6 months old and we’ve been so happy with the whole experience!
Mrs. Rachelle has several other teachers helping her, who we have also been extremely pleased with! They treat my son like family. I feel like they are very «tuned in» to my child, like a mother would be. It’s nice to have discussions with the staff about little things and get their expert knowledge! For example, my son kept getting small bumps on his feet. I had a gut instinct that it was from eating dairy and upon discussing it with Mrs. Rachelle, she mentioned they looked like «dairy bumps» in her experience. We tried eliminating dairy and the bumps went away! Which brings me to my next reason for a 5 star rating: nutrition! A Tree of Life does a great job with high nutritional standards and keeping all dairy out of my son’s diet! They have also helped wean my son off the bottle and really made my life easier! Mrs. Rachelle is truly an amazing addition to our family! I really couldn’t do it without her! I feel like she looks forward to spending time with my son every day and he looks forward to seeing her! And his friends there!
My son feels so comfortable at A Tree of Life, most days he doesn’t want to leave. Sometimes when I’m holding him and signing him out, he throws himself from my arms into Rachelle’s arms. It’s bitter sweet, but ultimately warms my heart! I also really enjoy that they put little events and field trips together and that I’ve gotten to know the other kids and families! It’s a wonderful support system!
I plan on keeping my son at A Tree of Life for preschool until Kindergarten! I’m very pleased with her «socialization» skills for toddlers and activities (art, music, reading) for preschoolers. Socialization and nutrition are my main two factors and I’d give A Tree of Life 6 stars if I could! A Tree of Life creates a wonderful and safe environment for children to learn and grow and explore! This place is definitely worth checking into!

Tree of Life Is an amazing preschool. We have sent our children here for the last three years and are completely happy with both the care and the education our children are receiving. This is the first daycare in the area that our children have been excited to go to (we’ve had 5 providers before TOL). Miss Rachelle and her staff are professional and are dedicated to the well being of the children in their care. If you need a preschool in the Natomas area make sure to visit Tree of Life.

I would give this daycare 6 stars of I could. We loved our experience at tree of life. It was my 2 year old son’s first experience with daycare, and he transitioned perfectly. I know it was due to rachelle and her wonderful teaching staff.
My son was only able to attend this daycare for 6 months because we moved out of the area, but in that short amount of time, he absolutely thrived. His language improved, and his picky eating improved. He was always excited to go to school.
The only negative that I can think of is that they are so great that it is hard to get in. We lucked out with our part time schedule coordinating with another family. I loved how organized and professional rachelle was with the business side of things. And my son just loved her to pieces. You won’t find a better daycare in Natomas.

We checked out this school and fell in love! I think it is amazing and really wish I found it 2 years ago!

I give A Tree of LIFE… 5 stars!
Their director Rachelle is very organized, friendly, educated, and supportive of parents, and the welfare of their childrens needs.
She offers an engaging curriculum that exposes her children to worldly things such as different languages, music, and the arts. This center is set up in a beautiful spacious house with indoor play space for yucky days, and a large super secure backyard for fresh air and outdoor play.

You won’t find a better childcare provider than this! Rachelle and staff are fantastic, and they create the most fun, caring, attentive and educational environment you could ask for for your child. Our 19 month old daughter gets excited every morning to go see all of her friends at daycare, and it’s such a relieving feeling to know that while she’s having fun with her buddies all day, she’s also receiving the best care and early education by people we can completely trust and have full confidence in. It doesn’t get any better than A Tree Of Life!
