Our Story

The Growing Trees isn’t just a preschool or daycare – it’s the story of a mother’s love and a leader’s vision. When our founder, Anita Sharma, encountered a desperate need for safe care for her own 9-year-old son, she was shocked to find his sister’s preschool wouldn’t take older children. That moment sparked a mission: Anita began caring for these children herself, filling a gap in the community and planting the seeds for The Growing Trees.

What started out of necessity soon became a deep passion. With an open heart and a bold spirit, Anita established The Growing Trees – a warm second home that welcomes children from infancy up to age 12. Our centre offers full CCTV access, keeping parents connected and involved at all times. Over 9+ years and two thriving campuses later, we continue to grow with everyone who believes in purpose over profit.

Vision

Every child deserves more than a classroom – they deserve a second home, where they feel valued and supported. Our vision is to set the standard for loving, child-centred education in every community we touch.

Mission

We are committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and joy-filled learning environment. We empower parents through transparency, and we encourage children to explore, ask questions and grow through play and discovery.

Philosophy

Philosophy: We believe deeply in each child’s unique potential. Our approach is summed up by our simple promise: “To recognize the inherent capabilities in each child and to respect every individual.” This child-centric philosophy guides our curriculum, our teaching style, and our daily interactions.
