Your Family’s Health And Safety Come First
Welcome To The Largest Playground In The County
Children can run, jump, and climb as they explore almost an acre of outdoor space and age-appropriate playgrounds. Outdoor play improves memory, boosts academics, promotes better health, and better sleep.
Procare Connect© Keeps You Informed Throughout The Day

Build Good Habits Now With Our “Healthy Kids” Program
Children and parents will focus on outdoor education, physical well-being, and healthy eating with the “Healthy Kids” program. With the program “Little Books Little Cooks” families enjoy cooking classes, and your child will also receive free screening for vision and dental.
Social-Emotional Skills Are A Part Of The Curriculum
Social-emotional and practical life skills are a part of your child’s learning plan. They learn to empathize with others, to listen, share, and collaborate. Practical skills like cleaning up after themselves helps develop great character traits in life.
Your Child Benefits From An Individualized Approach
Lesson plans crafted to your child’s individual needs and interests strengthen their talents and address any areas of weakness. Your child learns what they need in a way that is engaging and natural to them.
Farm-To-Table Gardens For Full Hearts And Dirty Hands
Help your child cultivate healthy habits and good character with gardening. Children develop social-emotional skills like collaboration when they tend to a garden together and it’s exciting to eat the vegetables they’ve grown.

"This place is a hidden gem!"
My daughter has been going to UTMPT since she was 9 months old. The curriculum is amazing. She has learned so much already. They even hold monthly parent education nights and give tips on common parenting issues. We have tried to adopt a similar schedule on the weekends and have seen a huge improvement in behavior at home (terrible twos 🙃). Everyone is so kind there. My daughter loves all the staff. The owners are continually making physical improvements to the daycare. They have added new flooring, a vegetable garden and a new obstical course just in the last year. The Procare app keeps me updated on what my daughter did all-day, her diapers and food intake and they send lots of pictures and videos. Can't give this place enough praise!!!!

"I'm so proud and I love the way they teach and handle the children."
My son started going to Under The Magic Pine Tree in October of 2021. Since then, he has done nothing but learn and grow mentally! I'm so proud and I love the way they teach and handle the children. They are always kind and welcoming with my son and other kids. They make it a habit to get to know parents, their names and faces. Of course you'd want to in an industry like this but they really show their efforts! I love that they provide an app to not only check your child in and out for the day but also give you regular updates throughout the day as well as occasional pictures! It was especially great when he first started, it really put me at ease as a parent. I could go on and on about how great this facility and their staff is. Thank you UTMPT Family for making our first time daycare a great experience for over a year now!

"We felt we found our preschool!"
We were really picky about what kind of preschool we wanted our son in. We wanted one that valued manners, outdoor play, sharing and creative thinking, no screens, SAFE and comfortable, etc. Upon learning of Under The Magic Pine Tree and taking the tour, we felt we found our preschool! Only after my son came home with cute songs, fun crafts, great sharing skills and patience that we KNEW we made the right choice with Under The Magic Pine Tree!!! I highly recommend Under The Magic Pine Tree to every parent I talk to and I will be so sad when it's our time to leave. The staff is fantastic, the app is very insightful and user friendly so you can keep an eye on what your kid does throughout the day. I can't recommend Under The Magic Pine Tree more! Absolute favorite!!!

"They have great curriculum"
Easy to use app that showed pictures and explain activities throughout the day, and are very clean. My kiddo is rarely sick and they are always cleaning. Also the owner and staff are always very kind and my son loves to go there!

"Highly recommend!"
My daughter started here around 2 years old and we’ve had such a positive experience! My daughter adores her teachers in her classroom; they are patient and kind and practice techniques with her to manage all the big feelings that come along with a 2 year old. The school provides food (so helpful!) and they’ve even gotten her to eat vegetables 🤣 The staff is caring and helpful and flexible. My daughter is making great friends there and we’re so happy we found UTMPT. Highly recommend!

"So Kind and Loving!"
My daughter has been going to UTMPT for about a year and a half now, and our experience has been wonderful. The teachers are some of my daughter's favorite people as she always talks about playing with them when she comes home. The lessons taught have truly helped both my daughter learn and grow and also us as parents to continue the same practices at home. We see our daughter learn something new every day, and I attribute a large amount of that to UTMPT! I truly feel this place is a gem!
