Infant Care
Our infant program serves children 6 weeks to 12 months in a shoe-free, home-like environment. Certified caregivers use songs, stories, and sensory activities to develop motor skills and language acquisition. Daily routines maintain consistency with home care while fostering trust and comfort in our secure facility.
Toddler Programs
Designed for 12-24 month-olds, our Mighty Seeds program combines structured learning with free exploration. Activity centers promote fine/gross motor development and social skills through puzzles, dramatic play, and sensory materials. Teachers guide early language development and encourage independence in a safe, organized space.
Preschool Education
The Bloomin Buds preschool curriculum nurtures curiosity through hands-on science, literacy, and math activities.

We recently moved out of state and truly miss Appleview. The teachers treated our children as if they were their own and really cared about their well being. The policies were supportive for working parents, the facilities were clean and the work for our kids was engaging. It's also pretty diverse-- another big aspect we miss. We especially loved the infant room. We were super lucky Appleview gave our boys an amazing foundation and wish we had more time there.
