I found Apple Creek after asking for preschool recommendations in the Frisco Moms Group... and…read moreApple Creek was recommended more than ten times. Now I understand why. They provide one of the most affordable early-education programs in the entire area -- truly a fraction of what many preschools charge -- yet the quality of education is unmatched. The teachers are warm, patient, and genuinely invested in every child. The curriculum is structured, creative, and intentional, and they make learning feel fun and exciting for the kids. My child has grown so much academically and socially since starting here. We feel grateful every day that we found this little gem. If you're looking for a place that feels safe, loving, high-quality, and still affordable... Apple Creek is your only choice!!

The staff provides a warm, nurturing, safe, safe, and family-like environment where children can thrive. Their focus on mindful care and individualized learning sets them apart.

Our family has been members of SUMC for several years now, and we are very comfortable that we've found our "forever church home."

Our son dreaded going to his summer program until starting kiddie academy. We see him learning and enjoying his peers. He comes home with a smile every day. I can't say enough wonderful things about the staff and owner. From the moment we enrolled our child, we've been impressed with their caring staff and nurturing environment. The teachers are incredibly patient and skilled at fostering both educational growth and emotional development. Our child looks forward to going each day, which speaks volumes about the center's warm atmosphere and engaging activities. As parents, we feel confident and grateful knowing our child is in such capable hands. Highly recommend!

We love the teachers, the administrative team, and have celebrated many milestones with classmates & their parents. KA fosters a fun, safe, and healthy environment for the kids, teachers, and parents. The teachers are always creating engaging learning activities for my son. The teachers are super helpful with techniques of transition like bottles to cups, pacifier weening, eating solids, trying new foods, potty training, riding a tricycle, etc. Drop-offs are a breeze, my son looks forward to seeing his friends and teachers each day (if they are on vacation he totally welcomes the change with ease bc all of the teachers are fantastic and he is familiar with all of them) Pickups are also joyful, the excitement to see me and joy to end the day by giving hugs and sharing goodbyes around the classroom and through out the hallways fills my heart! During COVID their mask mandate, dropoff/pickup routine and cleaning protocols kept our minds at complete ease (for our little guy health and a member in our household personal health concerns during unprecedented times). Kiddie Academy of Stonebridge-McKinney is a great school for my family.

My little girl has been going to Mudpies for almost two years now. From my very first phone call…read morethe office staff was attentive and helpful. They worked with me and allowed me to bring her in for a few hours at a time to get used to things. She started when she was 7 months old. Her teachers in every room have gone out of their way to make me feel comfortable and accommodate my requests. One of her teachers even used her break to get milk for her when she ran out and wanted more. My girl loves her teachers and I'm so thankful to have such a great place to leave her when I go to work. Several of my coworkers also use/have used Mudpies. I would highly recommend!

I know that my son is well taken care of while I am gone. It is nice to know that there are people that love him when I can't be there. They also have 2 different apps which you can use to check in on your child throughout the day. One app is a live stream video of the classroom. The second app is updated throughout the day by the classroom teacher with diaper changes, feedings, mood, and pictures. I enjoy being able to check in on my baby throughout his day when I can't be there. I would definitely recommend Mudpies!

All of the teachers, staff, and the owner are amazing and so sweet with the kids. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking for a more structured and safe environment for their kiddos. Of course, when you have children, you tour or attend other schools or daycare centers, but The Prep is unmatched. I may be biased, but I don't feel right paying the amount of tuition (especially in today's economy tuition is high everywhere) if my child is just contained to one room and a playground. The Prep has a curriculum that I believe mimics McKinney ISD, along with a gym, a tech room, their assigned classroom, a splash pad, a playground, and more (They also constantly have parties and themed days/ random activities throughout the week). I know for a fact that my child is happy and comes home smiling every day. Thank you, Prep School of McKinney!
