A personal commitment to every child
Kimble Warren
Founder & Principal
When I founded Learning Tree, I made myself a promise: every single child who walks through our doors will be seen, valued, and cared for. Not as a number, not as a test score, but as a unique individual deserving of respect, safety, and belonging.
My journey into education began with a personal awakening. As a mother, I experienced firsthand the anxiety that comes with entrusting your child to someone else's care. I watched my own daughter navigate spaces where she didn't always feel safe to be herself, where her voice wasn't always heard, where her spirit wasn't always nurtured. Those experiences changed me—and they shaped everything Learning Tree would become.
I knew then that if I ever had the opportunity to create a learning environment, it would be built on one non-negotiable foundation: every child matters, every single day.
At Learning Tree, this isn't just a philosophy—it's a promise. A promise that your child will walk into a space where they feel safe, both physically and emotionally. Where they are welcomed with warmth, treated with kindness, and supported with patience. Where their feelings are validated, their challenges are met with understanding, and their successes are celebrated with genuine joy.
We understand that children cannot learn if they don't feel secure. They cannot thrive if they don't feel valued. They cannot grow if they don't feel nurtured. That's why we've created more than just a place of learning—we've created a community built on trust, respect, and care.
To the parents and families who choose Learning Tree: I understand the weight of your decision. Trusting someone with your child's education and wellbeing is one of the most significant choices you'll make. I want you to know that we don't take that trust lightly. We honour it every day, in every interaction, with every child.
Your child's safety, happiness, and growth are not just our responsibility—they are our privilege.
With care and commitment,
