About Tierra Encantada
Tierra Encantada is the leader in Spanish Immersion Early Education®. We provide care for children 6 weeks through 6 years of age. We set ourselves apart from other daycares and preschools through not only our language immersion curriculum, but our approach with day to day operations. From cloth diapers in our classrooms to fresh-cooked, organic food designed to expand young palates, we strive to provide a wholesome environment that parents consider to be a second home for their children.
As our population continues to grow and more households have two parents in the workforce, the demand for childcare will continue to increase. Families in metropolitan areas already see months – if not years – long waiting lists to enroll their children in high quality early education programs. Tierra’s own Minneapolis locations see waiting lists well over a year long. With many markets not offering families a language immersion childcare option, Tierra will not only satisfy some of the immense demand for this growing market, it will provide parents an option they are excited about for their children.
Study after study has shown that learning a second language at a young age has tremendous benefits. Children who learn a second language in an immersion environment have been found to have improved cognitive functioning, outscore their monolingual peers in verbal and math standardized tests, and are more empathetic in their ability to understand another’s perspective in communications. Further, the number of families that seek organic food has increased exponentially over the past decade. Tierra Encantada is ideally positioned to address both the growing demand for childcare and the increasing awareness of the importance of organic food and language learning.

Testimonials
“The best part about Tierra Encantada is that once your Center is full, the waiting lists start. Children stay until they go on to kindergarten, resulting in long-term clients (and re-occurring revenue). The waiting lists grow to be months, then years long leaving you with little to no need to advertise and a turnkey business. The only spaces that open each year are when children ‘graduate’!” - Karina Zumba, Chief Operations Officer
“My 3 year old can easily count in both English and Spanish, and she converses all day in Spanish and then easily transitions to English at home, even helping her simple parents with pronunciation” - Cody, Tierra Encantada Parent
“I can’t give Tierra enough praise! On paper, the center had exactly what we were looking for - Spanish immersion, organic food, cloth diapers, a strong curriculum - but in practice, all you ever really want for your kids is for them to be cared for and loved by their caretakers and that’s where Tierra excels above the rest.” - Meg, Tierra Encantada Parent
“We love Tierra! Cloth diapers, organic food, and a happy baby makes mamma happy! I wish they had a bring your parent to lunch day because the menu looks fabulous and - the teachers and staff are all great and friendly! Plus they learn Spanish, so hopefully one day we can have our own personal translator to a Spanish speaking country.” - Meghann, Tierra Encantada Parent
