I have  been extremely impressed with the quality of the program, the  organization and cleanliness of the environment, and the overall culture  of the school. The teachers really care about the kids and their  development. They are as thrilled as we are as parents when they hit  key milestones and have developed a strong connection with the kids  that goes far beyond what is required.     “The centre has been very creative and effective in addressing some of  the challenges we face at home. We know that it's thanks to Green  Apple Kids that our daughter is a very healthy eater and is open to  many different types of food due to the outstanding quality and variety  of the menu.     “She is social, curious and more confident – and off to a fabulous start  thanks to all the experiences, support and love of the Green Apple Kids  teachers. We think so highly of Green Apple Kids that we have already  referred the school to half a dozen friends. One friend is still waiting to  get in... sign up early!”  Martha Moen  – Parent of a toddler, at the centre since July 2010   “We actually don’t even consider Green Apple Kids a daycare. The  teachers and staff care for my son as family would. They treat the children  as individuals, not just as a group. If a child has a challenging  circumstance, they go above and beyond to adapt to the situation and  help the child grow in a positive and constructive manner. Our son has  experienced positive growth in all aspects of his life….  “It’s hard to leave your child with anyone, but when we drop off our son,  there is no stress, no guilt. We feel that we made the best choice for him  with Green Apple Kids. Knowing that he is happy and loved makes a  happy family life.”   Lesley Boros  – Parent of a preschooler, at the centre since November 2009  “Our daughter has grown from an infant to a confident preschooler in the  care of Green Apple Kids’ caregivers and teachers. As the children move  up through the rooms, the expectations of what they can do themselves  are increased – boosting their confidence in a way that doesn't always  work at home.     “I love the natural playground – although it does challenge my laundry  skills! I think it's important for kids to get dirty and experience the outside  world.  “Our daughter knows all the teachers and staff, and the staff make an  effort to know all the children. She has friends in other rooms, and knows  everyone's parents and grandparents. The other children know us, too –  when we arrive to pick up our daughter, other children will tell us where  she is! “The extracurricular program at Green Apple Kids is a real plus.  It gives  the children something to look forward to and provides some variety in  their week. It's a great relief as parents to be able to leave our child in an  environment she is happy and comfortable in.”    Penny Nordstrom  – Parent of a preschooler, at the centre since July 2009
