Holistic care for children and the humans that love them.
“At 23 Cherry Tree Lane, our mission is to nurture, heal, and educate every child with love, kindness, and respect. We believe that all children are inherently worthy and deserving of care that honors their individuality and spirit. In all that we do, we commit to integrity, dignity, and compassion—striving not only to support the children and families we serve, but to leave this world better than we found it.”
23 Cherry Tree Lane represents Ms. Tracy's vision of what high-quality, holistic care for children should be. Rooted in compassion, education, and intentional practice, this unique service blends three core components: holistic newborn care and nanny services, personalized education, and consulting support for families.
Ms. Tracy currently serves families throughout the Atlanta area as both a nanny and private educator. She is certified in holistic newborn care and nanny services. She holds an additional certification from Playmaker University, where she trained in using play as a tool for connection, healing, and emotional growth. Ms. Tracy specializes in therapeutic play, creating nurturing and joyful environments where children feel safe, seen, and supported.
She is also experienced in implementing evidence-based sleep training techniques, utilizing methods such as Moms on Call and Taking Cara of Babies. Her approach is centered around respectful and responsive care, including baby-led weaning, gentle parenting principles, and the use of baby sign language.
A passionate advocate for child development, Ms. Tracy draws inspiration from the Montessori method and collaborates with parents to create home environments that reflect these values. She is also available for consultation on a variety of topics, including sleep routines, early childhood development, parenting strategies, and more.
23 Cherry Tree Lane also offers a range of enriching educational experiences tailored to the needs and interests of each child. These include:
* Private tutoring
* Homeschooling support
* Nature-based early education classes
* Outdoor adventures and field trips
Ms. Tracy has received specialized training to lead several acclaimed outdoor education programs, including Growing Up Wild, Project Learning Tree, Project WET, Project WILD, and Flying WILD. These programs foster curiosity, environmental awareness, and a love of learning through hands-on, nature-centered experiences

“Ms. Tracy is always ready with a calm demeanor and a kind word. She brings with her immense knowledge and skill but is also down-to-earth and full of warmth. She is an extension of our family and a true part of our caregiving team. If she does not know the solution to a problem, she certainly knows where to find it, and does! She is a true asset and we would have been lost without her when we brought our baby home. It was always a comfort just knowing she was guiding us each step of the way.”
“I wholeheartedly endorse Ms. Tracy. She is positively perfect in every way. Seriously, Ms. Tracy is a modern-day Mary Poppins. She will be an extremely positive addition to your organization. ”
“Ms. Tracy is always up for an adventure! Her greatest asset is her love for children and nature. It is a true delight to see how much our children love the outdoors and it is because she made it a priority for them early on. They knew that when Ms. Tracy was here they would be learning outdoors. We will always be grateful.”
