Experience the Best Daycare in Falls Church
Tierra Encantada of West Falls Church provides high-quality childcare for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers and is conveniently located on Haycock Road near Falls Plaza. At Tierra, we care for the whole child, nurturing their cognitive development with our research-based curriculum while providing nourishing meals from around the world made from scratch daily. Our Spanish immersion environment allows children to learn Spanish naturally, the way they learn English at home, so they leave our program bilingual. From first words to fluency, we are proud to provide families with a community where they know their child is safe, loved, and able to flourish.

The teachers are thoughtful and attentive, giving the little ones so much love; the staff is always extremely supportive and responsive. We feel like our baby is in an extension of our home.”

“The food they serve is great – I’ve stopped during meal times, and it’s so much better than the menus we saw at other centers. She has developed a great palate for different foods because of the variety she gets at Tierra Encantada. She happily eats vegetables and fruit, avocados, beans, eggs, and quinoa! I can’t imagine sending her anywhere else.”
