Apple A Day Preschool & Infant Center

This review is for the apple a day on garfield and marconi. My daughter is 10 months and has been coming here since she was 5 months. She loves it. Always happy when we drop her off and never crying when I pick her up. I have seen no staff turnover and they are great with her. They are big on cuddling the babies, which we did not find at other day cares.

Our little guys has been going to Apple a Day at their Garfield location. This is his first daycare experience and it has been wonderful. Alice, the owner, has created a loving, clean and stimulating environment for the children under her care. Maria, the director of the facility, is kind, flexible and great with the kids.
I’d recommend Apple a Day to anyone looking for an excellent daycare/​preschool.

My one year old twins attended this daycare for about 4 months and I can’t say enough about this place. The staff and director of this place are absolutely the BEST!!! My boys were loved and pampered just as if they were their own. They cooked special meals for them because they were picky, they were attentive to their needs, and they gave them lots of hugs! This is the cleanest daycare I have ever seen. I’m a clean freak so I know what’s clean.
Raquel the director of the facility was AWSOME and loving, she made everything so easy for me. I wish my babies could have stayed but I had to relocate.

We LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVE Apple-​A-​Day and their staff! Not only do my husband and I love it, but our SON loves it too! Everyday he talks about Apple-​A-​Day– we drive by on the weekend and he says «look! It’s Apple a day mommy!» The staff is so wonderful, caring, kind, gentle, fun, trusting, and they COMMUNICATE! I couldn’t ask for a better daycare to have my son at. He is learning so much and growing everyday! Each day I pick him up and ask, «did you have fun today?» and he responds, «Ya! I had fun at apple-​a-​day!» (I SWEAR, he could do a commercial for it, haha).
He has been at Apple-​A-​Day since approximately 3 months old. and is now 2.5.
Thanks Alice and Maria for having such a wonderful program!

We started our son at a larger corporate facility just down the street from Apple-​A-​Day when he was 5.5 months. He never adjusted to it and would scream and cry when my wife dropped him off. We were told by the staff that he was fussy and required to be held a lot. It was indirectly suggested that we need to stop holding him so much at home because «it made it very difficult for the daycare staff». We felt that it was our fault and that we had a difficult child. Then my wife observed one of the care givers handling a child roughly on two occasions. Then the facility was cited for being understaffed. Our son was so good at home — a joy even, although he does require a lot of attention — but what kid doesn’t? We decided to take a chance and move our son. We had toured Apple-​A-​Day when we first looked for a daycare. We decided to tour them again and then started him there right away. The difference was night and day, apples and oranges, fast and slow, happy and miserable… It was almost unbelievable. Our son was so happy and the staff just loves him. Now when I go pick him up he is playing with toys, being held, or being taught to crawl and walk. At the other place almost every time I went to pick him up, he was strapped in the swing, crying, and would look up at me as if to say, «save me…» Now at Apple-​A-​Day he is so engaged that he doesn’t notice me come in the room. I have to call his name, he looks at me, and then he smiles, and there is joy on his face, and I feel warm inside… It’s been two weeks since we moved him and it feels so good to know that he is being well taken care of. And he has made a quantum leap in his development. Thank you so much Apple-​A-​Day. Thank you Alice, Maria and Yulia. Thank you for treating our sweet little boy the way he deserves to be treated.
So if you are currently at that place down the street, and you probably know which place I am talking about, or if you are looking at daycares trying to figure out where to send your child, strongly consider Apple-​A-​Day.

My three (almost 4) year old has been going to Apple-​A-​Day, and we’ve been pretty happy. The curriculum is lots of hands-​on, and the ladies who work there are nice. He’s learning his alphabet already, and I’m excited about that. The food is pretty healthy too.
I especially appreciate the staff. I feel they care about my son.
