About The Umbrella Tree Child Development Center

Building Strong Foundations for Lifelong Success

At The Umbrella Tree, we are first and foremost a Childhood Development Center, built on a belief in the transformative power of early childhood education. Our mission is to provide a structured learning environment that blends theoretical knowledge with real-world experiences, so that every child can thrive emotionally, socially, and academically.

Our Founder's Story

The Umbrella Tree Child Development Center was founded by Brianna Harvey, a Board Certified Nurse Practitioner with a desire to provide accessible, high-quality early childhood care. Her background in both education and nursing shaped her understanding of inclusive care, especially for children from underserved communities.

Her commitment to early childhood education extends beyond The Umbrella Tree. Brianna was appointed to serve as a council member on the LA County Child Care Planning Committee, reflecting her continued involvement in supporting and shaping the early childhood care community in Los Angeles County.
