Familiar Treehouse Faces
get to know our leaders and child care providers. You will always see one of these faces around.
Nicole Johnson
Founder and Executive Director

The Community Treehouse was founded in 2019 by Nicole Johnson and Melissa Juliano with the hope of creating a place where families in Bayfield feel welcomed, supported, and connected.
A place where parents can take a breath, children can play and grow, and community happens naturally.
​
With more than 30 years of experience working with children and families, Nicole’s true passion is supporting parents through the joys and challenges of raising young children. Originally from the Netherlands, she has called Bayfield home for the past 25 years, where she lives with her husband and daughter.
Today, the Treehouse is shaped by the families who walk through its doors—parents supporting one another, volunteering, learning together, and building a caring community. Together, we are strengthening Bayfield, one family at a time.
Ashleigh Bennett
Conscious Discipline
Parenting class facilitator

I am a wife and mom of 3 kiddos - Tristan, Jace, and Stevie. I have been a member of the Treehouse since the beginning and appreciate the space as well as all the programs that have helped my family and met so many wonderful people.
I love sunshine, the outdoors, cooking, baseball, and juicy conversations.
My goal is to help the Treehouse continue to provide fun, educational, and supportive programs that strengthen our community and create opportunities to meet and connect with other parents.
I have a background in Early Childhood Education from in-home daycare, toddler teacher, preschool teacher as well as parent education. I have a passion for people and love creating environments for fun and a place to get to know one another.
