"We have loved Appletree Walker West. We have had some amazing teacher over the past three years with my two kids. The teachers and staff have had such a positive and important impact on my children's lives. Most of the teachers here seem to really enjoy being around the children, and for a childcare center there seems to be a good employee retention rate. Any problem we have had has been resolved quickly."
"I love Tyler, he's always so interactive with us no matter what stress he's dealing with. Abby has been an amazing addition as well. I understand the stresses with hiring and seasonal changes. I applaud what you've been able to accomplish and couldn't be more satisfied with the care for our children!"
"This location is exactly what I expect from a daycare for my toddler! My child has attended another Apple Tree location that was run like a business where the director cared more about moving kids into the next room before they were ready, but this location is so caring and truly centered around the development and well-being of the children. I'm so glad we switched and my toddler is thriving in this new enviornment."
"I love the teachers and am confident my son is in a loving, learning environment daily."
"Inconsistent. Teacher changes, not following schedules, not maintaining routines. Teachers don’t seem to have time to interact with kids much."
"Great! Mr. Tyler, Ms. Abby are great in the front and we've always had good experiences in the classrooms as well."
"We really enjoy Walker West. The staff are excellent and caring. Our child has learned so much."
"The school has been amazing. Our son has grown so much in just one school year. We know it's been challenging for the teachers due to COVID and staffing issues, but we're impressed by their dedication and the effort they put in to care for our child. We cannot thank them enough. Our experience has been near perfect (staying open for *one* more hour would help us tremendously but I suppose you can't have it all haha)"
"I feel like they keep my kids relatively safe, but overall it's very unimpressive. Any sort of activity, apart from centers and coloring print outs, are very few and far between. Also, there seems to be a lack of behavior management systems in place to encourage good behavior and discourage negative behavior"
"Overall it has been fine. However, i have not liked the frequent teacher turn over rate. The new payment system has been kind of annoying."
