Wishing Tree
Provide a nurturing environment for your child's stage of development. Your child's healthy habits means less time on battles and more time dedicated to quality time together. Don't pay for hours you don't use. Our unique pricing is based on when you pick up your child and your number of sessions.

Parents struggle to find empowering childcare for school-aged kids, so we created a community of like-minded families, so parents can regain control of their peace while giving their child the space they need to grow at their own pace.Each semester, we cover different books series through reading and games all while instilling healthy habits such as the love of learning, joy of being a team player, and patience to see things through to the end.
Services
We delve into a variety of themes introducing a growth-mindset (the belief that with practice, perseverance, and effort, people have limitless potential to learn and grow). We do this through fun brain and body exercises and games that include a fun obstacle course as we batten down the hatches, gather clues, and unlock a bountiful treasure during Pirate Adventures week.

My children have been going to the Wish Tree for years now and love it! They have been such a life saver in times when there are unexpected school closures or even for a nice night out. We love the Wishing Tree and Mary is a total gem! Thank you Mary!

Our son has been going to the wishing tree for over 3 years and absolutely loves Mrs Mary. Rather than just a place to take care of him our son considers it a treat as he has so much fun. Great for errands or a quick date night.

Wishing Tree is fantastic! I needed last minute childcare for a dinner meeting and took the opportunity to try Wishing Tree. My boys, ages 4 and 7 had a great time and didn't want to leave. The business model is pretty cool and is very affordable Snacks are available, there is a huge variety of activities, and there is a lot of space to explore. I'm very excited to bring the kids here again and get some social time in while they have fun too.

We love this place and our daughters, ages 10 and 5 love coming here. The owner, Mary Hollis runs the place herself and does it with a lot of love and kindness. This place works out very well for us as my husband has a rotating day off schedule so I am able to pick the days that We drop them off and change those days too. This place is a blessing!

First I would like to say I am shocked to see a 1 star review and to not have an explaination, at least say why as We love this place! Me and my husband do not have family in the area to babysit, we finally get time to ourselves. I love that you can drop off at anytime, last minute very flexible. My son is very comfortable here and is always excited to go. The owner Mary and staff are very kind and loving to the children. I like that there is no TV, the kids do crafts, Legos, and play together. Great location in One Loudon, safe and secure as they lock the doors at night to make it extra safe.

My kids are 3 and 5, and have spent several evenings here. They absolutely love going, the prices are very reasonable, and the staff is caring and sweet. My kids are in a safe and clean place with no hassle, and they have a great time while they're there. It's the perfect short term babysitter solution! I'm so happy we have this option! I can't recommend them higher.

My almost 5 year old son loves this place!! I signed him up for 8 weeks of summer camp and he couldn't get enough of it! Mary, the owner, is incredibly nice and generous and the staff took great care of my son (and I'm sure the others as well) and kept him entertained. They had a different theme every week and since it's located in One Loudoun, they got to go to the water fountain and park everyday and watch a movie at the Alamo. My son was always looking forward to the movie days and Game Night every Tuesday. I also like the fact that it's surrounded by restaurants. Great

The Wishing Tree is the BEST!!! I signed up for membership so my husband and I could enjoy a date night every month, and it has been amazing! My kids (4 & 5 yr old) pretty much ask if they can go to the Wishing Tree every weekend. We also participated in their Spring Break camp and had a great experience! It was very organized with a different theme every day. The kids loved it! My daughter is almost 6 and hasn't cared much for the other "parent's night out" programs we've tried at various gyms/churches/community centers, but she absolutely loves the Wishing Tree

What a life saver this place is. We have had several babysitter cancel last minute when my husband and I have plans to go out and it has been incredible to have a safe, friendly, trustworthy, and loving place to drop off our son for a couple of hours. I also use them when I need to get some shopping done during the day. So convenient! Ms. Mary is the best and every staff member I have interacted with is child focused and positive. Lots of educational toys and activities in a clean and imaginative environment. My son is very attached to me and is very happy to say goodbye to me after having

We dropped our kids off last night so we could have a much needed date night. The place is genius and too awesome of an idea not to share. I do not own it and I am not affiliated with it in any way. I am sharing because it is a great solution to a common problem and I like to see small businesses be successful. Especially a female owned small business.
You can drop your kids (3 & up and must be potty trained) off for up to 3 hours. They have snacks, crafts, toys and games. When we went back to pick up our boys after having a nice dinner date to ourselves at Uncle Julios and a drink at Bar Louie

I love it, love it. This is short term day care in the heart of Loudoun. It elevates the hassle of looking for a babysitter for a night on the town or just dinner out.
The owner has the sweetest spirit and has great crafts and activities to keep the kids engaged. This is one of the smartest business's idea I seen in a long time.

Brilliant, genius, and smart! This business concept is amazing! My husband and I dropped off our daughter so she could play while we had a much needed date night. Plus, way less hassle and $ then finding a sitter.

Most importantly, the owner immediately remembered our daughter's name having only met her once. The sweetness and kind nature of the owner and care providers is obvious the moment you enter the Wishing Tree!
