I am profoundly grateful to Apple Ridge Academy for the wonderful care their exceptional team provides to my daughter. The staff is genuinely engaged with the children, always attentive and involved even taking the time to play alongside them. My daughter has never been happier, and I wholeheartedly trust this academy.
We have been at Apple Ridge Academy since 2013 and wouldn't go anywhere else. All three of our children have attended from the time they were infants on. Our oldest is now in elementary school and was more than prepared for kindergarten. She always looks forward to returning in the summer and begs to go back on her days off from school so she can reunite with old friends. We have attended in both full-time and part-time capacities and Apple Ridge has always been very accommodating to our changing needs. The teachers and administration staff are excellent. The facility is excellent, and you won't find another daycare or preschool in the area with a nicer outdoor play area. The children are happy and the families are very friendly. Apple Ridge feels like a second home to us.
Our daughter has attended Apple Ridge since 12 weeks old. The teachers and staff have truly become part of our family and I know she is in the best care possible! The center is always clean and welcoming. They have an exceptional team of teachers who incorporate curriculum activities at every stage of development, and are easy to communicate with. Now that our daughter is 3 years old, I have no doubt that she will succeed once in school because of the great education and experiences that she has received at Apple Ridge, or 'The Academy' as her Grandfather calls it!
My son has been going to Apple Ridge since he turned 2, after being home with me since birth. He will be 3 soon, and I am thankful for his "School Family" every single day. He has learned so much, and loves his teachers and friends. The photos and daily notes they send every day are wonderful! I've recommended this center to many people!
This is our 2nd year at Apple Ridge and we are beyond happy and impressed with everything & everyone! My daughter absolutely loves it there & can’t wait to go every day. The teachers and staff are amazing and go above & beyond. I love the photos and updates I receive daily. I would highly recommend! We love our ARA family!
