About Us
Our Mission
We strive to create a school where children, parents, and teachers
LOVE and GROW!
We dedicate TLC to the advancement of students, families, and teachers-- their success is our legacy.
ORIGIN STORY
TLC is the brainchild of several teachers seeking to revamp early childhood education. We met in coffee houses, pizza parlors, and even a parking lot or two to sculpt our ideal school. Through many talks, walks, tours, and classes, we assessed what is GREAT about education, as well as strategies to improve.
From our collective years of experience, we know preschool is a place where children form their first views of organized education, where parents require high quality care, and
where teachers need the ability to innovate classrooms and
receive respect for their chosen profession.
It is our heart's desire to form a beehive of learning that nurtures this powerhouse triumvirate.
Dedicated Educators

WHY send preschool teachers across the globe for training?!?
1.) Many professions take training trips. Educators deserve world class instruction, too.
2.) Our staff hails from around the globe, and so do our students.
3.) We have a growth mindset-- Hometown doesn't have ALL the answers:)
