Switching my son from Kiddie Academy to Apple Hill was hands down one of the best decisions I made. He started Apple Hill in September 2021 (7 months old) not crawling barely rolling from tummy to back in as little as a month I saw him rolling more often and trying to crawl. My son had to have a helmet put on at the end of September for a flat spot on the side of his head which is one of the reasons I took him out of Kiddie ( they just left him in a swing or seat) Helene the director and Ms Amanda his teacher were so helpful with the transition and didn't mind having to take his helmet on and off every couple of hours. I get 3-4 pictures a day and he always seems like he is having the time of his life. Thank you everyone at Apple Hill for taking such amazing care of my son while I am stuck at work.

can not say enough great things about Apple Hill. From the second we walked in the door for our tour it felt like home. They really love the students and treat us all like family. They all know each student and parent by name and are always doing fun/new activities to keep the kids engaged in the learning process. my 2.5 & 4.5 LOVE going to school, that should speak for itself. I was referred here by a friend of mine, and I would 100% refer to all of my friends and family. couldn't be happier to be apart of the Apple Hill family !

My infant has been attending Apple Hill since he was 5 months old (now 9 months) and I can not say enough good things about this school! The level of comfort I felt with them from the first phone call, to touring the center to the way the staff is at pick up and drop off is something that is SO comforting when it comes to your children! The way my son lights up every morning when they open the door knowing how much he likes it there let’s me go through my work day knowing he’s safe and so well taken care of. Miss. Helene is so wonderful and truly is running an amazing school! She is also so much involved as well! From greeting us every morning, to seeing the daily report at the end of the day that she was changing diapers, to answering the phone every time you call! I even sent my 4 year old to Apple Hill in between camp and his school starting, which he too LOVED being there! I wish I could give Apple Hill in Freehold 10 stars!!

I could not be more content with my decision to enroll my daughter into the Apple Academy. She started going there at 3 months and from the very begging they made me feel reassured of the safety of my baby. My daughter is 17 months old now and every morning she goes in with a smile on her face and sometimes won't even say goodbye!
All I can say is, if you are feeling any hesitation in enrolling your child here don't. They have a great staff who are very attentive and caring. I do not know what I would do if I had to take her anywhere else.

Disappointed. Chose this place for kindergarten. After 2 months of no communication at all regarding any concerns it was decided he would no longer be able to attend and needed more one on one. My child enjoyed doing the work and was improving by the day. He was very happy here, made friends and liked his teachers. My child unknown to us was having issues with his hearing and it appeared to the school as something else. Unfortunately the outcome was extremely upsetting. The school personnel did appear to want to make good on the situation in the end.

In all my experiences with childcare centers with my oldest children. I was so pleased with how Apple Hill Academy's staff cared for my little one. Words can't not expressed how happy I was to see my child enjoying her time spent there. I had done alot of research when I first was looking for a center to enroll my daughter in! And I am so glad I choose Apple Hill Academy.. My daughter was not only having fun but learning new things. She felt comfortable with her teachers and would wave bye to me with no hesitations. My daughter was in the infant room and transitioned to the toddler room. I loved the pictures I would get through out the day seeing her play and learning. Staff at ApplyHill Academy truly go beyond the limits for taking good care of your children. I would recommend them to anyone and will most definitely be my first choice. Like I said I experience other daycare centers but nothing is like ApplyHillAcademy!

From my baby’s first day till now he absolutely loves this place. I get the most adorable photos throughout the day, always with such big smiles. The director and teachers are wonderful.

My 2 year old started Apple Hill a couple of weeks ago and he loves it just like I do. From the first time I enter the website I was hooked everything is so organized and answered. The teachers are very good, the director is very kind and they do more hands on activities than he did at his other daycare Kiddie Academy. I get 2-3 pictures daily which is amazing I know my son is in good hands while I'm at work. He's happy to stay there, on the weekends he tells me "Mami I want to go to apple hill" he would say the opposite about his other daycare I love how daily log are updated everyday! I highly recommend Apple Hill parents your child will love it and so will you!

If I could rate this place a million stars I would. First off you can tell they truly care about the children. My daughter Maya has been attending here since she was 3 months old and the amount of growth she has shown is incredible. Helene is amazing at her job and makes this place special. Sadly we had to move daycares because it’s now out of my way to bring her here. We tried to make it work and unfortunately it’s hard. We didn’t want to leave this place as no daycare has even come close to how amazing this establishment is.
I wish they could build a center north of manalapan so my daughter can continue attending. If anyone out there is looking for a daycare look no further because this place beats them all

My daughter has been with Apple Hill since she was 3 months old. She has grown emotionally, mentally and physically. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. My family loves Apple Hill!

Apple Hill Academy in Freehold has exceeded our expectations in every way! Helene and the staff are super friendly, and run a very safe and reliable operation. It's an enormous peace of mind to know that our child is being taken care of during the day, as we are two full-time working parents. I highly recommend Apple Hill for anyone looking for a place where their child can learn and thrive.

About a week or so before pandemic hit I gave them $100 for my son to start school. At the time I didn’t have an issue with the non-refundable deposit. So the pandemic hits and the school closes down. When I eventually got in contact with them about getting my money back because my son was to be homeschooled they said no it’s non-refundable. My son has never attended the school he did the walk though with me and that’s it. I wanted my money back and they flat out said no even if my son wasn’t going to regular school I would never ever do business with them again. People have asked me should their child attend (this was before the pandemic and after I told them I did the walk though) Never ever. They are greedy and selfish. It’s about money with them. I even got my $100 when my dog didn’t go to his training program during the pandemic. They are just wrong

My daughter has been going to Apple hill academy for almost a year switched from another day care center and it was the best decision I made. The teachers and the staff are all amazing. My daughter is 4 knows all her colors in Spanish, writes her first and last name and is now learning to tell time..

Our son has been attending Apple Hill Academy in the toddler room for almost a year now and we couldn’t be happier! It has been amazing to see how much he has learned and the skills he has developed. The staff is always pleasant, helpful, and willing to communicate with us. We have been comfortable sending him during Covid. They have been taking as many precautions as they can and we trust that he is in a safe environment. Our son comes home happy every day and loves talking about his friends and teachers. It is wonderful knowing that he is well taken care of and having fun while we are at work.

The experience myself and my family continues to have with Apple Hill Academy is excellent (truly beyond my expectation). The Apple Hill team made our transition from one day care to their facility so easy. They were prompt in communicating via email and in returning phone calls. They made registering my son and the form completion super easy and accessible through the computer. When COVID hit, I was extremely impressed with the implementation of new safety features and procedures they put into place. My mind was truly put at ease, with the daily photos/daily reports/daily curriculum they provided. I knew my son was having fun, but also learning. I am so impressed with how much my son's vocabulary (he is a toddler - approaching 2 years old)has increased in such a short amount time. The entire Apple Team/Staff are all super friendly and professional. I can tell they truly enjoy being part of my sons life and daily routine. My son would come home with different arts and craft projects nearly everyday. The school is beautiful as well and recently updated. They truly offer so much and have created a truly amazing environment for both learning and fun!

I truly cannot say enough good things about Apple Hill Academy! We switched my son here when he was 20 months, previously we were at a Goddard school. WOW what a world of difference it has made! Since switching, he is so excited to go to school, and I see such a difference in how much he is learning--he's picking up new skills and words almost every day; it's obvious that he is being very mentally stimulated.
Apple Hill does SO many fun activities and crafts with the kids, they have great events like their Halloween parade, monthly visits from Mr. Scott the Music Man (all the kids love him!), and fun weekly themes. They also make my life easier by providing all the food he needs during the day, and even drinks too--at no additional cost! In the spring/summer, the children get to eat fresh vegetables from the school's organic garden, such a fun and healthy experience for the kids. They even picked some pumpkins from the garden in the fall! Best of all, I feel so comfortable with all of the teachers and the center's director; they are all so sweet with my boy, and really make dropoff easier on him. Apple Hill is definitely our extended family!
If you're considering Apple Hill, check out all the great photos they've posted on their Facebook page and take a tour--as soon as you're there, I'm sure you'll feel the same sense of community as I do every day 🙂
