The teachers are kind and care for the children as if they're family. They recognize when a child might need more support and follow through. We'll hate to leave when our child ages out!

They try their best to implement activities every day for the kids to keep them engaged. They never want to go home! They always send a ton of pictures through the app, they track meals, diapers, and activities. I would highly suggest bringing your child here!

My son has gone to this daycare since he was an infant. The wait list is long, but so worth it. I…read moregot on the list when I was three months pregnant and he wasn't able to secure. Spot until he was 10 months old (16 months)! He has never cried when I dropped him off. I think he feels so loved by his teachers there. They all remember him by name even though he has gone through 4 different classrooms so far. I can't say enough about the staff. It seems they have a high turnover rate, but I can't blame them. My guess is many are in school and that they don't get super high wages (they should). They have a beautiful outdoor/indoor classroom and have a fun natural playground. They always have fun activities planned as well as field trips. They have killed it this pandemic with safety. Love Milestones! Worth the wait.

From having a child here and working here, I personally saw the quality of care is not at all what…read moreyou would expect in the actual setting sadly. The amount of money parents pay to have their children taken care of isn't at all equal to the quality of how the care is towards to the children. Its extremely low staff and the staff that is there is so unhappy. They are all over worked and exhausted. It's kind of insane how different things appear when a parent is coming or person that works from the corporate office! They will literally call the classrooms of whomever is expecting a parent or person from corporate to warn them and send over other teachers just in case they need help to get back in to order. Negligence towards the children's needs is seen here a lot and different forms of abuse. As a parent: A teacher had told me that my child was put out side a few days prior without gloves or anything and cried the whole time because she was so cold. ( the main teacher never once told me this even when I asked them how her day was going one hour after) Even though I was there at work the teachers said they couldn't let me know because they were already outside. Which one is a lie, and two I'm not sure if this is because of the uneducated of the teachers but honestly it wouldn't take a very highly educated person to find more than one solution to this problem. They acted like it wasn't a big deal. I then realized they always put kids outside and if they don't have proper attire or make sure to put their attire on "sometimes they can't look at all the kids" - what I was told. They say it's not that big of a deal.. um it IS! These are little babies and children. It's unacceptable to have a daycare that their ONLY job is to take care of children and they literally lack in that.. and other kids in other classrooms that I had been with the other teachers would reinforce that and say oh it's fine they can go outside- no it's 32 outside.. they NEED proper attire.. Another thing is from working here I realized if the kids don't have proper sleeping sheets and blankets the kids will be put just in the cot and expected to sleep comfortably and has to sit there and be quiet for the two hours or more... now how would that be comfortable? Or even makes sense. As a teacher: The rules here for the kids I almost laughed when I first heard them because it's so asinine. One rule about when the kids are eating ( the parents are paying for food it's built into the extreme high amount of money it costs to go here) a child can only get about a quarter of a cup of milk, and if the kid spills it at all on accident they can't get anymore because they want to teach them about how milk is expensive. And somehow Appletree that literally brings in over a million dollars can't afford more than a gallon of milk a month.. Yes maybe they kind of seems like someone is trying to teach a good point, but these are little babies! They all spill stuff all of the time and then you're going to hurt their little egos by saying "no I don't care if you accidentally spilled your milk you get no more... " like What?? it's SO sad.. I spill things some times I don't expect someone to say to me oh well you aren't allowed to drink that ever again. Oh but if a directors child or a parent who works at corporate child does it they are allowed as much as they want, as the same for food too, If those kids get hungry they can have more snacks but any other kid - nope! Not allowed at all just have to tell them sorry no YOU can't get any... Little kids are human too and they are not treated nicely at all there. Another thing I learned is the teachers talk about the kids, yes that's expected but they talk SO bad about some... like this kid is ugly. This one is evil. This kid I can't stand. I hate this kid. This one will have this disorder when they are older.. and they say it in FRONT of the kids . That is emotional abuse.. First off- Uneducated teachers who have little experience and schooling. The teachers would be very unhappy from feeling like staff didn't care about them and how they are very VERY underpaid. Most teachers seemed to be here because they didn't know where else to work, which is kind of mind blowing and highlights the fact of uneducated..from working here you don't need experience, nor do you need to be educated at all. And everyone is payed minimum wage.. Very unacceptable to how they handle kids behind closed doors. The staff seems very friendly too but unfortunately they all dislike one another and the directors. All they do is gossip about one another and complain about everything. Also, another thing that was shocking is that they do not have a proper cleaning company, like say at a school that has a janitor or custodial person. The teachers are responsible to clean all of the classrooms at the end of the night and mop the floors with old mops that have to be at least 10 years old and old vacuums that are about the same.

Our daughter has been at AppleTree in Standale for a little over a year (since she was 15 months),…read moreand we couldn't be happier with our choice in daycare! We are greeted each day with warm smiles from ALL of the staff, who truly make us feel welcome, and that our daughter is genuinely cared for. She is excited to go to "school" each day, loves her teachers and friends there, and she's learned SO much! At almost 2.5 years old, she has quite the vocabulary (favorite saying of the moment: "It's aMAzing!"), knows most of her shapes and colors, can recite her abc's, and count past 10, and comes home every day, having learned something new. The center itself is beautiful, very clean and organized, with a wide variety of age-appropriate toys and a super fun playground, split into two sections for the younger and older kids. The administrative staff are very friendly, quickly respond to any questions or needs we have, and do a great job keeping the parents up to date on the various happenings at the center.

The short review: For the Kidz is an absolute gem to the Grand Rapids community…read more I was introduced to FTK through the website which lead me to open gym. Open gym is a winter time saving grace. This is two hours of play time on huge trampolines, a foam pit, a huge floor, a bunch of traditional gymnastics equipment. Kids are safe to play under the careful watch of instructors. The instructors are keen on the rules and very attentive. I have also notice attendance is capped to prevent chaos. Going deeper, my crew checked out the classes. WOW. Here priceless confidence building, self esteem, and motorskill development are taught. Oh yes...and gymnastics too!! The classes are taught to constantly to take children to the next level, helping them reach their full potiential. My favorite thing about For the Kidz is that safety and the happiness/safety of the children is the absolute priority here. The kids also have a blast!!! Also, if you wait in the lobby...you are in for a real treat! The gym hosts some very competitive trampoline and tumbling gymnast!

PARTY RENTAL REVIEW…read more We celebrated our son's 4th birthday at Horizon Kids in Jenison, and this was our second time hosting a party here. I have to say, this recent experience was on a whole different level when it comes to customer service and attention to detail! The two staff members working that day were absolutely amazing--so kind, helpful, and attentive. Our kids felt comfortable and safe with them the entire time. They offered to help set up and clean up our party items, checked in frequently to make sure we had everything we needed, and made a point to acknowledge the birthday boy multiple times throughout our reservation. We truly felt taken care of, and the staff made the day even more special. As for the space itself- we loved it. You get 2 hours from start to finish (Activities are 1 hour 45 minutes, with the last 15 minutes of your party being used for packing up). You can have up to 12 kids any additional is just $5 per child. You're allowed to come in 15 minutes early to set up, and cleanup needs to be done right at the cutoff so staff can disinfect and prep for the next group, which is totally understandable. The facility is spacious, very clean, and perfect for kids to run around and play. The staff takes them into the gym to do activities and keep watch making it nice for parents too! They also put up a birthday sign and streamers with the colors you ask for! Our kids had a blast--ours even fell asleep on the way home! Pizza delivery is available (we chose Pizza Hut because it's close), and you're also welcome to bring your own food and treats, which makes planning easy and affordable. Overall, we absolutely loved it here and can't recommend Horizon Kids enough!
