Apple Ridge Academy

We were fortunate to enroll our son Tyler at Apple Ridge Academy when they first opened in February 2010.  He was 12 weeks old and the first infant in the classroom.  We had looked at other centers and knew the second after talking with Ms. Tammy and touring the facility that Apple Ridge was the place for our Tyler.  We are always pleased with the care the staff provides.  The teachers in the infant room are so patient and provide individualized and exceptional care.  Tyler is happy and we are so blessed to have the team care for him during the day.  We look forward to continuing at Apple Ridge for many years to come

My son is about 16 months and have been at this facility since he was 3 months old. I don’t even know where to begin, every teacher has been amazing, from infant room and up. And I mean EVERYONE. Not only does my son love his teachers and his friends, but the amount of activities they do throughout the day is so impressive! Their little minds are constantly being stimulated and challenged, all while having a blast. I never have to worry about my son’s needs not being met. It’s been so fun to see his development at home too, and I credit a lot of it to the Apple Ridge Staff! They also do a fantastic job keeping me updated on my son’s day with such detail, which I appreciate more than they know. They’ve been so flexible and supportive when my son had a few rough patches with some health issues, and are always asking about updates like he was one of their own. Being a first time mom, and a working mom, they have helped me more than I could ever express in words. Thank you Apple Ridge Academy!

Our child started at Apple Ridge as a 12-week old baby, and now is in the toddler two room. Each classroom and each set of teachers has been outstanding. Our child learns so much at Apple Ridge, the teachers really work hard to make it an enriching experience for the kids. I love the app that details for me everything about our child's day and the pictures they capture for us too. I have been very happy with the meal plan and the variety and nutritional content of the meals. It's a wonderful blessing to be able to drop your child off for the day and not worry about her happiness or safety because I know she is in the best hands she can be in. The administrative staff/management is great too. They put a lot of time and consideration into events the center hosts like art shows, holiday open houses, charity drives, family baseball games. There is areal sense of community at Apple Ridge.

Our daughter is 4 1/2 has been going here for about a year and a half. All of her teachers have been excellent. She gets lots of personal attention, they are helpful with any behavioral issues we have had, and were very attentive and caring when she got sick at school. She has learned so much and I am so impressed with the curriculum but also how they know that young children need tons of creative, open playtime, art, and physical activity, not just academics. The facility is nice and kept clean. The administrative staff are very helpful and flexible when it comes to questions and schedule changes. We use the affordable hot lunch option and she has come home many times announcing she now loves a food we couldn't get her to even try at home! (I still don't know how they are doing that but we're grateful!) She has really grown so much and we couldn't be happier with everyone at Apple Ridge. I highly recommend them.

We often think how fortunate we have been to have such a wonderful place for our son Nathan.  Everyone is caring, professional and dedicated.  You can tell that they truly enjoy their job.  They treat our son with warmth and respect and encourage his ability to grow.  We feel very comfortable that we are leaving him in good hands, and are very thankful for the staff at Apple Ridge Academy.  We would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for loving care for their child!

As soon as we walked in the door at Apple Ridge Academy, we knew it was the right place for us.  The teachers are very knowledgeable and friendly, some of the best that I've ever come across. Tammy is very approachable and runs the center with lots of love!  I feel good about dropping Madelyn off in the Toddler classroom, because I know the experiences that she gets help her in her growth and development every day. She gets to participate in lots of activities that are completely age appropriate including story and song time, arts and crafts, sensory development and more!  All of this while meeting her daily needs of healthy nutrition and appropriate sleep. We could not have found a better day care for our daughter!

Every time I pick up Max, I leave saying to myself how happy I am that my wife Jen found Apple Ridge Academy.  The teachers Max has for Preschool are excellent!  Max is our first and only child so we pay close attention to his development and where we let him go when he is not with us...Apple Ridge Academy is a blessing for Max and us. Thank you!

I was one of those moms who had a melt down with the thought of putting our daughter in a daycare.  To my surprise they have played a vital roll in our daughter’s development over the last 8 months. Her well being is never a concern and we know she gets the upmost care that Apple Ridge provides. Any request we have ever had is met without hesitation. The excitement she has on her face when she sees her teachers is very comforting. We also love being updated with pictures on Facebook on a regular basis as we miss seeing her during the day. We are very pleased with our experience thus far and look forward to a lasting relationship with Apple Ridge Academy.

As I am a pediatrician and my husband is a teacher, we are very particular about child care.  We searched through several child care facilities, considered nannies and ultimately decided on Apple Ridge for our six month old.  We have been so very pleased with her care.  The entire staff has gotten to know us and our daughter.  The facility is very clean, staff is always friendly and other families are very pleasant.  We could not be happier with our decision.

I bring my son 1 day a week, but once in a while I get him in for 2 days when needed. I'd researched a lot of facilities and visited a couple, there was something about watching the children of different ages happily coming in that set my mind at ease over all of the other places. I think as a new mom, we most likely all go through that period where we don't want to leave our baby in the hands of people we don't know, but I was pleased with how quickly the staff took to my little guy.

Our family is so grateful for the great staff at Apple Ridge Academy!  We decided to switch to Apple Ridge while I was expecting our second child.  I was nervous about how my 2 year old was going to respond to the transition.  The teachers in the Pre-School 1 classroom could not have been more accommodating or welcoming to my son.  It took a little time for him to adjust, but now he never wants to leave at the end of the day!  The teachers in the Infant classroom have also been so fantastic.  They are genuinely happy to see my son each day and give all the babies so much love.  A great big thanks to all the staff and the director at Apple Ridge for making our family feel so welcome!

We have thoroughly enjoyed having our daughter Isabella enrolled at Apple Ridge Academy for Preschool and 4K. We researched many preschools and found the staff to be welcoming, honest and they have a passion for childhood education. The teachers are wonderful and I know when I leave my daughter she is safe and happy! We enjoy the family activities very much and can tell the children are learning while having fun!

Our family has been with Apple Ridge for over 3 years and have loved every day. Both of my children have made special bonds with their teachers and have learned so much. I would recommend Apple Ridge to anyone.

I am thankful everyday for the amazing teachers and happy atmosphere at Apple Ridge Academy.  After a really horrible experience with another daycare, Apple Ridge Academy has renewed my attitude towards daycare.  My son, Max, is incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to grow and learn at Apple Ridge. I am so happy that you are a part of Max's life. I have and always will highly recommend Apple Ridge Academy to ANYONE who is looking for high quality childcare. Thank You!

You guys at Apple Ridge are so amazing. I appreciate everything that you have done for me and Ava over the last few years and I am so glad that we found you when we did. No one could ever question your motives for doing what you do. It's only about the kids and it shows every time there is something fun planned or there is an open house or holiday. I couldn't be more thankful to you even if I tried.
