Absolutely love this place. All three of my children have gone here. I have had my care with them since 2021 and they have always loved my children. Thank you for all you guys do!

Awful place, overworked staff, zero understanding of proper means of childhood development.

Saying goodbye to this daycare is truly the end of an era for our family. Our daughter, has been here for years, and watching her grow from a tiny baby into a confident, independent little girl has been nothing short of amazing and so much of that is thanks to the incredible staff.
After going through some early medical challenges, trusting anyone with her wasn’t easy. But from day one, her teachers made us feel supported, reassured, and deeply cared for. They loved her like their own, nurtured her personality, and gave her the confidence and security to thrive.
We’ll never forget the hugs, the milestones they celebrated with us, the endless patience, and the joy they brought to her day. They didn’t just care for her they helped raise her.
We are forever grateful for the love, time, and heart every teacher poured into our girl. Thank you for being such a special part of her story. On to preschool but we’ll always carry this place in our hearts!

Prior to finding Apple Kids, we tried in home daycares and a different center. Apple Kids is beyond amazing! It’s such a great feeling when I can drop my kiddos off and know they get the best care! From the management to the teachers I could not be more happy with the level of care and love my kiddos receive! I am proud to say I take my kiddos here!
