Appletree Christian Learning Center

We have had the most amazing experience with this daycare. The staff are truly like fairy godmothers of childcare. Communication is excellent — the app is full of updates, photos, and videos, and they even captured video of our daughter’s first steps and celebrated right along with us! They genuinely know the kids — their personalities, preferences, and how to engage them. They are incredibly thoughtful with classroom transitions as children grow, and they guide behavior with calm voices and teaching moments. As a new parent, I’ve felt so encouraged and supported by this team.They’ve taken time to get to know me. It has greatly added to the sense of community they have embedded within this center. The directors are phenomenal — always attentive and welcoming when parents walk in, while also being deeply involved behind the scenes. You’ll often see them helping in classrooms, answering phones, supporting kids, or jumping in wherever they’re needed. We are endlessly grateful for the love, care, and celebration they give our daughter every single day. This experience has been a dream, and we feel so lucky to be part of this community.

Our experience at Appletree in Hudsonville has been amazing. The staff has been beyond kind and accommodating throughout the entire experience from enrollment to day to day drop offs. They update you through the app all day and send pictures and videos. You can check on your kiddos using the live camera feed and easily message staff with questions. Communication is always quick. The rooms are clean and feel very warm and friendly. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

Last year I was enrolling my 2 year old son for part time daycare after I had recently completed enrolling my 4 year old daughter in the GSRP preschool program through Hudsonville ECC. I will always be so grateful the director mentioned they were starting a GSRP preschool program at Appletree. They efficiently switched the pending preschool enrollment to Appletree, taking care of all the behind the scenes work for me. The change in location was a huge improvement logistically and having both children at the same building was so helpful for me as a working single mom. Appletree has been wonderful with the peace of mind from live streams, the app consistently updated and seeing the fun and learning via pictures. Directors have been understanding and accommodating of occasional schedule changes. All staff have been friendly and made me feel at ease trusting my children in their care. We have had an incredible experience all around, my children adore all their teachers and I am forever grateful to everyone who works so hard to create a wonderful environment!

My daughter has been in the infant room(s) for several months now and we have had nothing but amazing experiences. The teachers and assistants in the classrooms are so compassionate, and they truly care about each child. We are kept updated on every little thing that our girly does throughout the day. The communication with both the teachers and administration has been amazing. They are quick to inform us of anything that strays from the normal. The older kids also always seem to be doing something that keeps them having fun while learning every time I am there (which are often random times throughout the day for pick up.) We toured several daycare facilities and I would have to say that Appletree was very close if not identical to the pricing of the other facilities. They did however offer part-time pricing, which was huge for our family. I would highly recommend Appletree Hudsonville to any parent, especially those who have to make the tough decision of where to bring their brand new babe.

We have been happy with our experience at AppleTree. The staff adamantly utilizes the app for updates and photos throughout the day, the live feed lets me check in on our little one at any time and the building/staff has good security measures. All staff and teachers I’ve interacted with have also been friendly and accommodating.
