Apple Valley Daycare is amazing. The staff is caring, patient, and truly treats every child like family. You can tell they really pay attention to each kid and create a safe, positive environment.
The place is always clean, organized, and welcoming. They keep the kids engaged with fun activities while also helping them learn and grow.
It gives real peace of mind knowing your child is in good hands. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a reliable and loving daycare
Apple Valley Childcare has been such a positive experience for our family. Angelica goes above and beyond to make sure each child feels safe, and supported. The environment is clean and organized all the time and she keeps a good routine for the kids. I really appreciate her communication- it’s clear she loves what she does. I would absolutely recommend her to other parents in Yakima.”
My son has been going there for almost a year, and his speech has improved tremendously. He learned how to write his name, the alphabet numbers and how to do addition before he was 4 years old. Hes going to be beyond prepared for kindergarten next year. The teachers there are amazing, so thankful for these ladies 🫶🏽 HIGHLY RECOMMEND
This child care center is great. The staff is very attentive to all child needs. Angelica did a good job of giving me peace of mind when it came to my child attending. Now that my child will be attending kindergarten, we are sad to leave her. You won’t have any regrets when choosing this child care. I am grateful for the staff here at Apple Valley, we will miss seeing them at pick up.
Apple Valley child care was absolutely amazing with my son. He attended from the age of 1 to 5 years old. And I can tell you my son was so beyond prepared for kindergarten by the end of his days of attending (was even speaking a little Spanish, which I was grateful for). Angelica and all the ladies in there were so sweet! I highly recommend this establishment. My son (now 11) still asks to go and visit everytime we drive by.
Apple valley childcare & preschool is amazing when I started taking my son I was a young mom and nervous but Angelica and staff are amazing and have become like family I have been with them for 11 years now they had my son from the time he was 1 till kinder my daughter from 1 to kinder and currently my toddler for a year and soon will have my youngest in a couple months there is no other daycare I would trust with my children they are invested in them I have never had any kind of issues and all of my kids loved daycare/school I highly recommend apple valley thank you for being great teachers
Apple Valley Childcare is by far the best childcare center I have ever interacted with! Reasonable pricing for the market, extremely communicative, and invested in the kids. We have been here for just over a year and would never go anywhere else! You can tell there is love in what they do. I can’t recommend them enough!
I love this place Angelica and her family took care of my son like it was there own. He was 9 months old until he went to kindergarten. I always recommend her daycare to who ever needs Childcare. I highly recommend her daycare.
Highly recommend to everyone!!! They're not just "daycare" they're family! We toured when my oldest was 3 and my youngest was 1. I am a single mom, at the time I was working full-time, going to college full time, and had my kiddos.
My girls stayed until they were old enough to go to elementary full time (this past August). And I cannot tell you what a difference this place made! My Kindergartener and 2nd grader excelled, and just graduated with above grade level across the board in school.
You might gripe about the price but you can't put a price on early learning for your kids. They helped set my girls up for success and it was worth every penny! They also taught Spanish (101 equivalent) to my kids and I am so incredibly thankful!
My girls and I grew to love these wonderful ladies as much as we would family! They still ask to visit Teacher Angelica. She was my biggest teacher, guidance through school, kids, and life, and like another grandma to my babies. If I have another they will definitely be coming here again. You can't beat the friendship, respect, skills, and love this place touches on the kids. We love you so much! ❤️
