One parent shared that their child comes home excited about learning and full of stories about what they have discovered in class, and described the teacher as kind, patient, and attentive. Another parent described the teachers as fantastic, the curriculum as spot on for little ones and parents, the locations as incredible, and stated that their child has never been happier in a class. A third parent reported that their child started Tiny Treks at 19 months, became more confident and curious each week, and often talks about the teacher, the animals, plants, stories from hikes, and that Tiny Treks has become the highlight of their week.
