Utah’s Top Rated Local® Child Care Center Award Winner: Discovery Tree Academy

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Discover Tree Academy is a 2018 award winner!

We are thrilled to say that the team at Discovery Tree Academy has earned a phenomenal 94.00 Rating Score™ and a spot among the top three child care providers in the entire state of Utah. Here are a few of the reviews that earned them their 2018 Top Rated Local award:

“Discovery Tree Academy has been so amazing! We searched and searched for quality childcare and preschool for our daughter, and Discovery Tree exceeded our expectations. The teachers and staff are wonderful, caring, and knowledgeable. My daughter had an excellent experience! She was loved and cared for, and she learned so many things. Thank you!” -Katie S.

“My kids were at Discovery Tree for two years. Mr.Tim and his caring staff are very dedicated and professional. [The staff was] very responsive if we had any questions or concerns. They also kept parents informed on current events through the bright wheel app… I would support raising tuition to keep good teachers. Keep up the great work, DTA staff!” -Jayne W.R

“We have been using Discovery Tree for almost two years now and it has been a great experience. My kids love their teachers. The days are structured to include learning, structured play, and free play. I really like that they use [an] app so that I can easily see pictures and videos of what my kids do throughout the day, as well as what they eat, any notes/updates, and view/pay for invoices. The teachers are great. They love the kids and care about their learning. The only downside so far is that I don’t live closer.” -Melinda D.S

Not Your Average Child Care Company

Owner, Tim Carter, took some time to chat with us about his business’ successful online reputation, as well as what they bring to the table for their students and their families. When we asked what makes Discovery Tree different from other child care centers, he told us it really boils down to four things:

1. Security and safety for children and staff
2. The ability to run advanced programs and give kids hands-on experience
3. A clean facility with a great atmosphere
4. The culture they provide—they pick and choose who is a good fit for the school and only take 72 kids at a time

Building Success Through by Sticking to Their Vision

It’s clear that the team at Discovery Tree Academy is doing something right. After all, you don’t earn phenomenal reviews for no reason. Because of that, we knew Tim would have some great advice for other business owners, especially those working in the childcare industry. He said,
“Get your program or product aligned with true vision and show it externally, go as big as possible. [Do] lots of Marketing, surround business around social proof.”


Congratulations to the team at Discovery Tree Academy for being a 2018 Top Rated Local award winner!
