Parents' Comments

Parent #1
I was told by various friends and neighbors that when my child was old enough I should send her to Apple Child Care.
My first contact was phoning and asking info in which the Director was friendly, professional and very helpful, answering all my questions and sending a classroom letter, specific to my child's age and a current monthly newsletter and one past newsletter. I was told that upon receiving the info I should then call back and make an appointment to visit the center and meet the staff and receive a parent handbook.
I actually visited the center, meet with the director and staff.
I was pleased with my first impression... cheerful, clean and very child-oriented. I was invited to attend the Parent Night Open House which was held the first Friday of November, 7-9 p.m.
My mother and I went to the Open House and it was an unexpected good time. Parents and visitors attended, (no children) visited each classroom and made an item that related to the Ohio State Standards to take home and do with their child, enjoyed refreshments and a drawing for prizes.
We didn't want the evening to end....we left that night and I enrolled my child for the following September and have never doubted the care my child / children haeve received through the years.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?

What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
