Founded more than 20 years ago and dedicated to providing a loving, safe, and supportive environment for children and their parents, Appletree Academy I is located in the heart of Columbia County at 501 The Pass in Martinez.
We offer a wide range of childcare services for children ages six weeks to twelve years of age including all day care for nursery, toddlers, and preschoolers as well as before and after school care for nearby Columbia County public and private schools. In addition, we offer care during school holidays as well as a summer camp for school age children. We also offer two Bright from the Start, lottery-funded Pre-K classrooms.
Appletree’s curriculum is a combination of High Reach Learning, and Pinnacle, as well as High Scope which is used in our Pre-K classrooms.
These are all designed to provide a fun and stimulating learning environment for your children. We are also very excited to be able to offer extra opportunities in activities such as computers and music. All classrooms are set up with age-appropriate materials, adequate space, and access to one of three spacious playgrounds with age-appropriate toys and equipment.
Our highly trained staff are required to stay up to date in CPR, first aid, fire safety, and also maintain an additional 10 hours of approved child care training each year. Our Pre-K teachers must have their bachelor’s degrees and each paraprofessional is certified through at least a Child Development Associate degree. They must also complete an additional 15 hours of Pre-K training each year.
We invite you to call or visit for specific pricing or to schedule a tour! We would be happy to answer any questions you may have! Everyone at Appletree loves children and enjoys facilitating their success. That is what truly sets us apart from other schools. We love what we do, and we do it well!
