Description: 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.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

I just want parents and potential parents to know that TIFFANY MITCHELLE FUTO(managing director), KETRINA TYLER, and TIFFANY LEE ARMSTRONG are wicked and liars. Be careful when you have any form of conversation with them. Be sure to record your conversation for your safety. Parents stay away from Apple tree academy 2 on fury's ferry road. TIFFANY MITCHELLE FUTO, KATIRIA TYLER, and TIFFANY LEE ARMSTRONG just know that karma can skip you and hit your children. The sins of the parents visits their children and grandchildren. It's a terrible thing when children have to pay for the sins of their parents.

My son attended this daycare for a few months. At first the place looked great. The Assistant Director is a sweet lady who made me comfortable in leaving my son at the daycare. A few months went by when I started noticing the poor choices in food given to my son. Teachers leaving left and right. I would not recommend this place at all! There is no real cook at the place. My husband would pick him up with a dirty diaper and nose like all the time. The Director has her position for the sole purpose of being the daughter of the owner. She is extremely unfriendly and rude for multiple reasons. When I gave her the two weeks notice she did not even mind asking why ...... she simply asked for her written two week letter. To keep this short look ELSEWHERE!
Very poor. They use bathroom cleaner to clean tables. They don't tell parents if their child class have hand foot and mouth. They don't clean how they suppose to. And the 17 year old daughter work in class lied about her age.
