APPLE TREE CHILD CARE

Our daughter has been going here since she was only a few months old, and we love this place! Our daughter wakes up excited to go to school everyday! The staff is friendly, and accommodating, and take time out of their days to give my child a personal experience that makes her not want to leave when I come to pick her up after work.

We checked out many of the franchise locations which pass themselves off as high-end, but when we found Apple Tree, we knew they were the best choice. Kid is now around 10 months old and has been attending Apple Tree since she was around 2 months old. We were initially attracted to this place as it was the first daycare center we interviewed at which didn't react with horror at the notion that we planned to use cloth diapers. It is great that they did not tell us what they required from us, but rather responded to our individual wants and needs. I'm glad we found this place.

My review: My kid has gone to Apple Tree since 2011 when they were 1. We have always enjoyed the family feel of the center. They were always accommodating to our needs. They are not run by a corporate headquarters outside of Oklahoma. You always see the owner (Mr. John) greetings the kids and knowing their names. Though they have lost some great teachers, the center always seem to find good staff. They are slow to adapt to change but have a working model that has lasted for years and will last for more to come. I would give it a 5 star overall but 4ish for educational. My kids review: they dont tell you where to go for centers and some of the centers are boring...wait delete that. There are no monkey bars on the playground. Please don't send that. I am not sure if they have activities. Sometimes i dont like the food. A lot of times I don't like the food. Who are you sending this to? I wish I could bring my own lunch. The kids that go there are nice. It does not smell bad.

My kids have been going to apple tree since they were babies. They love it there, I am a very protective parent and constantly ask my children information on their day and its events. They love going, they have friends there and never have anything bad to say. They come home happy and half the time I am trying to leave the place I have to wrestle with my kids to get them into the car because they are having to much fun. I do wish they would sit down with my oldest and help her with her homework when she is picked up from school and taken to daycare, however at the end of the day I am the parent and it is MY job to make sure their homework is done. Keep up the good work guys.

I would give it zero stars if I could. My children cried every day when I dropped them off -- to the point of hysterics. We finally left the center midway through the summer because one of the teachers said my 6-year-old son was "going to get it" if he didn't "shut up and lay down." The worst part was that when I called to tell the managerial staff about this incident, they not only told the teacher who complained, but gave her my personal phone number and information. The teacher called and said my son was a liar and that she "knew better" than to make threats to the kids at school. It's been two months and I'm still waiting on the reimbursement check from the center for the money I paid for time I didn't use. The manager agreed to give me this money back since I left due to threats being made to my child. Horrible center. Horrible teachers. Crying children left and right EVERY DAY.
