Our Proprietress

Patricia Afua Yeboah Ayinde

Proprietress & Founder

I am a Ghanaian, born and raised in the Greater Accra region. Most of my adult life was lived outside of Ghana, but I always stayed close to my roots. As a trained nurse and educator, I am deeply passionate about nurturing and teaching children.

I earned my Master of Science in Nursing Education from Purdue Global University in the United States. My journey in healthcare and education has shown me that every child deserves a learning environment that is safe, joyful, and rooted in strong values.

My faith and belief led me to create Growing Tree Elementary School. I am bringing the education standards from the United States together with the rich culture we have here in Ghana, to give our children the best of both worlds.

“I want every parent who trusts us with their child to know: I will do my best to ensure the success of your child.”
