I can't express enough gratitude for the incredible care and learning environment provided by Appletree. From the moment we stepped in, the staff's warmth and professionalism instantly put our minds at ease - especially after touring a bunch of the other local daycares 😅 My 15m old daughter has been attending since she was 3 months old and absolutely loves it here. The communication between the staff and parents is impeccable with daily updates and pictures that provide insight into her day, reassuring us that she's in excellent hands. Overall, Appletree has exceeded our expectations in every aspect. It's not just a daycare; it's a second home for our child and we’re so so thankful for the community it has provided 💗

My son has been going to Appletree since he was 3m old. He is now 16m and is thriving in Infant classroom . When my husband and I toured multiple daycares for our baby, nothing felt comfortable for us until we toured Appletree. When we initially met the staff at Appletree, we felt at ease and knew our baby was going to a safe and loving daycare. All caregivers are genuinely caring and make time and effort to understand each baby needs. My husband and I are relieved, assured, and happy that our baby goes to a great school.

My daughter is 16 months old and has been going here for about 10 months now. I am very happy with this daycare. The staff always acts in a professional manner and I am always greeted with a smile by them. I really appreciated the teachers assisting my daughter through her different stages and helping her grow. It is nice knowing that my daughter is safe and is enjoying her time there.

My son started at Appletree when he was 7 months old when I returned to work. I dreaded dropping him off at first (I missed being with him all day), but he quickly got used to it, then it became obvious that he LOVES going. He has such a special relationship with all of the staff, especially his main caregiver in the infant classroom. She took charge and figured out his eating habits, nap schedule, and preferences in no time, and he very clearly loves her. I am so comforted seeing how happy he is and how well he is cared for. After a few months, he also started being more social with the other kids in his class. We get reports from the staff and pictures in the app every day, and they are very open and available for our questions.

Appletree has been our daughter’s home away from home. My husband and I are extremely grateful and blessed to have found a preschool that loves and cares for our daughter. Our daughter loves all of the teachers in the infant room. I enjoy looking at the pictures they send me while I am at work. I am glad my friend and coworker highly recommended Appletree.

I have trusted Appletree Preschool with both of my daughters since they were newborns. I toured so many other daycares and was scared and uncomfortable until I came across my last tour, which was Appletree. The teachers are absolutely heartwarming, feel like family, and you can see how much they LOVE your child when they have them. They get to know your child so well and are accommodating to all of their needs. The school has the parents involved with so many events which is wonderful because you feel. Part of the experience. Every single person I have dealt with at the school has been nothing short of amazing. They are understanding, flexible, and willing to do anything to make you feel comfortable. Ms. Arianna has been so sweet, kind, and instrumental….she has helped me with so many of the logistics, she is always involved and beyond helpful. I love and trust this school and all of the teachers! Highly recommend 10/10!

My daughter has been going to this daycare since she was 10 months old. She has been loving her teachers & friend. Everyone around has been so nice and caring. As a parent, we have had a great experience communicating with all the teachers. The best part is the structured curriculum. I can tell my kid has learnt a lot since she joined this day and I would highly recommend to all the parents living closer to Lyndhurst. Thank you, Appletree for being so amazing.

This is an absolute fabulous establishment! My 2 year old son loves it. At peek a boo they treat you as if you are family. They are reliable and trustworthy. They put the well being of each child first. I was always skeptical about leaving my children in daycare but peek a boo of Lyndhurst has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for my child and his development. I can’t thank this daycare center enough for making our experience so wonderful. Positive Responsiveness, Reliability, Quality, Professionalism, Value

As a first time mom, the thought of returning to work and leaving my baby girl was terrifying. From my first conversation with Julie on the phone, I immediately felt at ease. I toured a few local centers and while all were sufficient, none gave me the same feeling of LOVE that Peekaboo did. I had no idea at that time that these people would become a second family to myself and my girls. Everyone there is compassionate, kind, helpful and loves these kids as if they were their own. From the Infant room all the way to PK-4 the care has been remarkable and we have been thrilled with the things our girls have learned and experienced. My daughter started Kindergarten this fall and we know she is more than prepared to succeed. For anyone looking for more than just childcare they can feel confident with, the Peekaboo Family cannot be matched!

I had my son enroll in the daycare in August 2019. I liked how nice Rebeca was and how my question's were answered no matter how many they were. It was my son's first time at a daycare and she made me feel comfortable leaving my toddler in their care. Everything was fine with communication between us about what my son has been doing. Until mid september comes he was moved to the two year old class that is on the main floor. He was okay the first week i was being told he was good. But second week my husband would tell me he had bitten a classmate my husband filled out paper works that they ask to sign for incidents. (My son has never bitten in my home nor with his babysitter but that doesn't mean he didn't do it) Third week we were being told he was doing it again and that they are considering to moving him with the baby's under 2. My son was going to be two in two weeks and i asked them to give him a chance he just moved to the new room about 2 weeks ago if he can be given 2 more weeks bc he needs understanding. He is the type of boy who will connect with the person whom doesn't just put him in time out or raises there voice at him all the time, he will be a rebel for sure. Anyways, after saying that to the teacher of his class she didn't like the idea of giving him a chance by the look on her face and she even told me that if they waited 2 weeks, he would be 2 years old by then and they would not be able to move him to the other class that is under 2 years old. Sooo to me it made me understand she did not want to have him or deal at all in her class. I was called later that day that he had done it again and how he hit the teacher's assistant. They told me they had to move him with small kids that at this point it was a must. I said okay bc i just couldn't handle the fact that i knew and felt he was not wanted in the classroom. So my husband picked him up that day he was not asked to sign paper work again ( i find it odd since they've done it previously. I thought maybe they forgot it happens). The next few days same thing no report to sign. They didnt have him sign an incident report bc there was none! I just came to a conclusion it wasn't true and he was just wanted out. I took him out in October (no one reached out to know why or to get my feedback on the reason why he was no longer going to be there) he started a month later in another daycare and i waited bc i wanted to see a difference in his behaviour and i did! He connects with the teacher his habit has not been a repition at all. He was just not understood now he has someone who truly knows how to connect with different kids.
