What Our Parents Say
We provide quality, affordable and flexible childcare to ALL children, read what our parents say about Appletree Childcare.
My wife and I have used Appletree for 7 years to look after all 3 of our children. Our daughters attended the Nursery from 1 until they started school and now go to the After School Club. Our son went to After School club from 4 to 11. Throughout that time we have been delighted with the care that they provide, the staff are friendly and helpful and have always made our children feel safe and cared for. The nursery provides a great balance between making it a fun place for children to go but also preparing them for school and full-time education. We would have no hesitation in recommending Appletree to anyone.”
Appletree nursery has been a fun positive experience for my daughter.
She has enjoyed her time at nursery and made so many friends.
The teachers are fantastic and I cannot thank them enough for all they have done for her.
