Parents

Because Our Children Are the Future

Appletree's vision is simple – to be the most nurturing environment for children and the most trusted by parents. Every day, we recommit ourselves to the future by focusing on the needs of our kids through age-appropriate activities in a loving and safe setting. If you haven't already visited our center, please consider this an open invitation. A personal guided tour is your best opportunity to ask questions and to see first-hand the level of service and instruction we provide our kids on a daily basis.

Age Groups

Appletree accepts children ages 6 weeks to 12 years. For the best experience for your child, we offer five developmentally based classrooms.

Infants 6 weeks - 18 months
Wobblers 12 - 18 months
Toddlers 18-36 months
Preschool 3 - 5 years
School Age 5 - 12 years

Development

We always keep in mind that your child is their own person who learns and grows in their own way. That's why Appletree offers stimulating activities and ample opportunities for exploration and expression. As a learning center, we focus not only on your child's cognitive and physical growth but on their emotional, social, and spiritual development as well. This inclusive approach helps you, us, and your child recognize and strengthen his or her unique talents and abilities.

Caregivers

Our caregivers work past the level of custodial care to bond with your child and to create lifelong friendships with families. And they have the experience, expertise, and education necessary for their room's age group.

Communication

We encourage start- and end-of-day chats between you and our staff. These open lines of communication help build acceptance, independence, and security, as well as positive self-esteem in your child.

Safety

There is no more important issue for parents or for Appletree Learning Centers. On all levels, our safe and secure environment allows your child the comfort to be him- or herself, thus nurturing their growth and development.

  • Buildings

    We safeguard your child through our strict check-in/check-out procedure and by securing Center doors with an electronic keycard system.

  • Online

    For your peace of mind, we also offer secure webcam access to your child's room. Viewable only to those with a login name and password, it's a quick and easy way to monitor your child's social growth and can help alleviate any separation anxiety you may experience.

  • Classroom

    We encourage individuality and strive to teach respect, selflessness, acceptance, kindness, honesty, integrity, and love for humankind. We also use positive redirection which encourages positive behavior and at the same time discourages negative behavior. This educational discipline policy reflects our belief that teaching children a positive self-concept will help them learn their own self-control and build positive self-esteem.
