Meet the caring teachers who bring creativity, experience, and a heart for nurturing every child.
Families often tell us that Tree of Life feels like home – a place where children are known by name, teachers are trusted partners, and parents find community.
TOL is such a special place. It’s been a great year. I just wish we had done the toddler room last year as well. We really appreciate all you do to make it run so wonderfully. Communication has been clear, curriculum is solid (and fun!), and the teachers are kind and caring. Our son looked forward to going every day, and my husband and I were just discussing how much he’s grown. Thank you!
Kari Nau is an absolute gem and we feel so lucky to have gotten to know her this year. All of the teachers have been so kind and loving. They all met my child where he was at and were very supportive. They made tough drop offs so much easier. The Christmas concert was the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. TOL is everything that preschool should be. We feel so blessed to have been able to be part of this community this year! THANK YOU!!
Tree of Life has been an amazing experience for my two boys. The teachers genuinely care for and love each child and strive to make it the best place possible for kids to learn and grow. My son needed extra assistance with his speech and they collaborated so well with myself and his speech therapist. I would recommend TOL to anyone.
Mr. Nau and her team have gone above and beyond. My child and we adore her!! She and the other teachers are a gift.
From the moment we toured Tree of Life, we instantly felt the teachers’ warm and nurturing welcome. We knew our oldest would be comfortable and cared for. We also loved the community and getting to know the parents and teachers. Our son was prepared with the skills to enter 4K. When it was time to send our daughter to preschool, it wasn’t a question she would go to Tree of Life. We are so grateful to Kari and her staff for their love and nurturing provided to our 2 kids.
Tree of Life is best in class. Walking through the doors as a prospective parent, I instantly knew it was an exceedingly special place. Two kids later, I never cease to be awed by the care and nurture seen in every facet of this school. My boys have grown in the toddler class and flourished in the preschool class. The small class sizes, brilliant director, and teacher are all wonderful assets. Additionally, we have made wonderful friends and truly formed a community in these formative years. Best decision I’ve made for our family.
We have been absolutely impressed with Tree of Life during our first year. The skills he is learning has made a huge impact on home/everyday life, gaining independence, and preparing him academically. I cannot thank the teachers enough for their patience and hard work!
Our family has loved our experience at Tree of Life. It’s truly a nurturing environment where teachers meet each child exactly where they are and help them grow with confidence. The community is incredibly welcoming, and the teachers make the classroom and curriculum fun, engaging, and full of joy for the little ones. We couldn’t recommend Tree of Life more to families looking for a supportive and inspiring preschool.
