What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

Recent parent reviews

  • I have been very satisfied with the Montessori education our child has received at Apple Tree Montessori. The teachers do a good job encouraging the children to learn independently, make choices, and complete activities at their own pace. Since starting, I have noticed a big improvement in our child’s concentration, confidence, and ability to complete everyday tasks without help. I love that the classroom activities are hands-on and purposeful rather than just worksheets or free play. My child would come home excited to talk about numbers, letters, practical-life activities, and new things learned at school. The teachers are patient,, and really understand how to guide each child based on their individual development. Definitely one of the better pre schools in Sunnyvale.

  • Appletree Montessori was my favorite pre school I enrolled my son in. The teachers were genuinely caring, and made my child feel comfortable. My son would be waiting to go to school every morning, which saved me many hours in the morning. I have put my child in many other preschools and Montessori schools, however none of them gave my son the attention and support that Appletree did. My son definitely learned and grew a lot over the couple years he was enrolled. For families looking for a Sunnyvale preschool, Montessori program, or a caring preschool for 2, 3, or 4 year olds, Apple Tree Montessori is definitely my pick. I also want to thank all the teachers for all their help throughout the years.

  • Our son was at appletree montesorri for a year. We explored a lot of day cares, big and small, but what stood out the most for us is the demeanor of kids when we did the tour. They were genuinely happy, curious and gave good vibes. On the contrary, some of the larger day cares we visited, kids were disengaged and teachers looked exhausted. We had some reservations about appletree’s location, but after speaking with other parents and our experience during the tour, we decided to overlook those factors. In retrospect, we made the right decision as we saw our son bloom during his year there. His teachers were ms Wei and ms Shweta, who were genuinely caring.

What kind of child care licence does APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL hold?

How many children can APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL care for?

APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL is licensed for up to 22 children at one time. Licensed capacity is a ceiling set by the state, not a count of current enrolment or of available places.

How often has California inspected APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL?

California records 1 inspection visit to APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL, the most recent on February 28, 2024. The state publishes the dates of these visits but not what they found, so this count reflects licensing activity, not results. Read the findings themselves in California's own facility search.

Has California visited APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL in response to a complaint?

California records no complaint-driven visits to APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL. That means no concern prompted a visit on the public record, which is not the same as a clean inspection history: the state does not publish what its visits found.

Who holds the licence for APPLETREE MONTESSORI SCHOOL?

The licence is held by NILANTHI RENUKA JAYASINGHE (RENU). California lists the licensee separately from the facility name, so the two often differ. The facility is in Santa Clara County.
