Peppermint Tree Child Development Center

We have had a wonderful experience at Peppermint Tree this year! It was my son's first year of ever going to school and he had never attended a daycare. He was nervous to say the least. Within the first two weeks of going just a couple times a week it was like he was going to his favorite place! He has learned so much and gained so much confidence. The teachers, assistants and Miss Val have all been so lovely to him and the rest of our family. Family has been encouraged to attend many of the events throughout the school year and there is a very strong sense of community. We've had a wonderful experience and we would gladly recommend Peppermint Tree to anyone!

We’ve had such a wonderful experience at Peppermint Tree. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and supported by the entire staff. Val, the director, leads with warmth and care, creating an environment where both children and parents feel at ease. The teachers are incredibly kind, patient, and attentive—it’s clear how much they care about each child. Our daughter looks forward to going and is thriving in the supportive, engaging atmosphere. We’ve seen such positive growth in her confidence and communication. We couldn’t be happier with the care and education she’s receiving!

Our son was enrolled here about half way through the school year, and the entire staff at peppermint tree has gone above and beyond to make sure he fits right in. He has learned so much here in such a short amount of time. His speech has improved tremendously, as well as his social and behavioral skills. This school has brought out a new side of my son that we had not seen when he was his previous daycare. I couldn’t say one bad thing about this school. We are so happy with our experience here and Val has been so incredibly helpful and kind. Always answering any question we have as well as supplying all the parents with fantastic resources to learn.

What an incredible school and community. Peppermint Tree has been so welcoming to our family in our first few months we’ve been enrolled. My son is beyond excited for school every day and I’m so impressed with the level of commitment to learning, play and exploration from the whole staff. Parents are strongly encouraged to stay involved with individual classes, story time and school events. You can choose your level of involvement and that’s something I am so thankful for working full time. My son is in the PreK program and I just enrolled my daughter in the Early Learners program for the fall. We are so excited for the next few years. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Peppermint Tree. My 3-year-old daughter started there this past September, and the progress she’s made—socially and cognitively—has been amazing. She’s thriving, and it’s been such a joy to watch. She loves it so much that she can’t wait to leave for school in the mornings, which says a lot about how much fun she’s having and how comfortable she feels there.

As someone who has worked in early childhood education, I can confidently say that the care and attention the staff provide are truly outstanding. Everyone I’ve met through Peppermint Tree, from the teachers to the other parents, has been so friendly and welcoming. The school offers so many fun extras for the kids, and they even organize weekend gatherings for families, which has been a great way to meet other parents and help the kids build stronger connections. It’s such a warm, caring environment, and I’m so happy to be apart of this community.
