Red Apple Preschool/Chapman Academy

We have been with Red Apple since 2022 and have been really happy there. We have not personally experienced other daycares so can’t really compare. We would recommend Red Apple to our friends and we were recommended by other happy families with kids who are high school age now! Loves: The teachers have basically not changed since we started there and I am pretty sure most have been there for many years before we started. I think this shows that they love being there and they truly love seeing the kids grow. Other benefits: Some teachers are bilingual (English/Spanish) Lots of exposure to Bible stories Tons of artwork and other activities Structured calendar each month with some theme days / outfits (but not too many that it’s a stress) My kids (3 years and 20 months) have been there since they were each 3 months old. They love going to “school” and seeing their friends and teachers! There are a few things that I wish were a little different, but for us, these are not reasons to look elsewhere. I wish we could go inside more often. To meet other parents and kids. We drop off and pickup at the door. The pro of this is that my kids are very independent and know right where to go once they enter the building to set down their lunch boxes. There is always a teacher to escort them in. It’s probably faster than parking and walking the kids in and out too! And more secure as there aren’t a lot of people in and out of the building. I wish I didn’t have to pack all their lunch and snacks. We looked at more expensive (a lot more) places that provide meals and that would be super convenient! But at least with packing food, I know my kids will be eating because we send stuff they like. Also a heads up - The playground has that black rubbery stuff in places and we learned pretty quickly that light colored pants are not ideal for crawling kids - just get dark colors and it’s fine!

I have 3 kids who have had the pleasure of attending Red Apple Pre School, so I speak with utmost confidence when I say that Red Apple Preschool is a great choice for your kids up to and until they start Kindergarten. Red apple Preschool has very good facilities and an amazing set of staff who are very well trained to nurture and caring for children. They have a great child to teacher ratio at every level to ensure that my kids receive the right amount of interaction with teacher and peers, that greatly contribute towards the child's emotional and social development. Even amidst their busy day, the teachers take the time to provide daily feedback (Eating schedule, Potty Schedule, Boo Boo report) about the kid's day at Red apple, which we found to be very, very helpful. They have a variety of activities round the year, that builds a strong foundation for my kids cultural, spiritual, intellectual and scientific growth, as an integral part of their curriculum. From learnings about the Animals and the Environment, Culture and festivals celebrated around the world to basics of Arts, Math and Science, the Red Apple program sparks curiosity and eagerness to learn in my kids. Some of the activities includes us parents being a part of the fun as well. My wife and I like that very much!. Red Apple Staff are very meticulous when it comes to our children's health and safety. They quickly make us aware of any concerns with our child(ren) so that we can take the appropriate action required for the wellbeing of our child(ren).As parents we are always concerned and it puts us at ease (by a large measure) that our kids are under the care of Red Apple staff during the day. My wife and I often acknowledge that Red Apple Preschool is like a second home for our kids during the day and their staff is like our extended family. They are, and have always been, there for us!.

Red Apple Preschool has been literally a God send for our 3 year old! HIGHLY recommend! Our only regret is not finding you sooner! The day care our child was previously at had a high turnover rate in caregivers that were unprofessional. We had MANY ongoing concerns... Our child has been at Red Apple now for 6 months and LOVES it. From day 1 our child was happier and actually looked forward to going in. Our child is very fond of the staff there, daily telling us about them and her friends in class as well as what she learned daily! Since being at Red Apple our child knows how to count to 14, all colors, 8 different shapes, the days of the week, ABC's, how to say grace, recognizes consistently 10-15 letters of the alphabet, and has learned to write her name (3 years old!), etc. She often repeats songs that they sing in class. We love the safety & ease of drop off/ pick up. We respect that they do not have parents come in at pick up and drop off as it increases safety which is very important for us as parents. It also is respectful of the space and has promoted independence in our child as she retrieves her things from her cubby with very little assistance throughout the day and before leaving to come home. Staff is very responsive via email / phone within reason and clarifies things as needed when asked. Her teacher completed a teacher conference with us which made us feel comfortable and even more confident in them. We look forward to spending the next few years with you! We are so thankful for you Red Apple! THANK YOU for all you do!!

We have loved sending all 3 of our children here! The teachers are amazing, and many of them have had all of my kids in their classrooms (this is going back 10 years!). The teachers truly care about the kids and I have peace of mind that my children are being well taken care of. My kids were well prepared for Kindergarten and I love the Christian aspect of the curriculum. I would highly recommend Red Apple Preschool.

We will be at Red Apple preschool with all 3 of our kids until they age out of care there! The staff is amazing and creates a safe and welcoming environment for the kids. The staff is consistent and clearly loves working there because there has been no turnover since we have started attending. I can't speak highly enough about the red apple team! My kids love going to school there and I love hearing about all the things they do during the day when they get home. They teach the bible, sing songs, and pray and I love the conversation that sparks at home. Due to moving around a lot, we have attended over 6 daycare centers with our oldest. Red Apple has been our favorite hands down. They are amazing and I would 10/10 recommend to anyone with young children.
