We switched our daughter to Crabapple Academy in January, and we wish we had done it sooner. We are absolutely thrilled with the administration and all staff, employees, and teachers. They are beyond caring and passionate for each child, no matter the age. I feel so lucky as a mother to have my daughter (and soon to be second daughter) in a school that I know truly cares about her and her wellbeing. I could not recommend C.A. enough!

My son attended Crabapple Academy for Georgia PreK 1, and I cannot express how happy I was with everything they did throughout the school year. My son has nut allergies, and they were incredibly cautious and attentive to this matter. Ms. Nitzbeil was exceptional with all the kids. When I asked my son how she handles them when they're upset, he said she gives them hugs until they feel better, and that just melted my heart. Ms. Sara, Ms. Ellen, and Ms. Elizabeth were all wonderful as well. You can truly trust them with your child, and that is the most important thing.Today was the Pre-K graduation day, marking the last day of school, and I'm writing this to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of them. Thank you all for being so awesome and caring towards our kids.

The Apple is a place where you can leave your child not only knowing they will receive excellent care, but also they will be genuinely loved by the staff. The teachers at Crabapple are devoted and caring, overall a great group of people. Ms. Laura B is a notable exception. I still can’t figure out how someone so petty and mean spirited made it through their vetting process.

Highly recommend. Our son is here for Pre-K and the progress he's made in just a couple of months is amazing. The administration and teachers go above and beyond and truly care about the children.

We cannot recommend Crabapple Academy enough! From the ownership and directors to the teachers, it truly feels like a family. They know our children so well and go above and beyond to support and love all the children and families in their care. Both of our kids learned a lot academically, and we love that the curriculum is infused with art and social-emotional skills. Our daughter recently graduated Pre-K and she was very well prepared and adjusted for kindergarten; our son is currently in Senior Preschool and thriving both developmentally and socially. Sara, the director, is an excellent communicator and I never worry that my children are safe and well taken care of. Of note, she did a masterful job navigating all the complex challenges that came with the COVID-19 pandemic! She makes it a point to know her families and, as a result, we feel so great about where our kids are spending their days and they are excited to come to school. Roberta, the assistant director, is wonderful and makes us and our kiddos feel welcome, loved, safe, and part of the Crabapple family. We would also be remiss not to mention the amazing monthly themed photos from the owner Ms. Ellen. Those are worth the tuition in and of themselves :) This has been a wonderful place for our children and our family, and we would recommend it to anyone.

We absolutely love Crabapple Academy! Both of our kids have gone here for preschool and the GA PreK program. The teachers are top notch and genuinely love our kids and care about their health, safety and education. The director, Sarah, is a complete gem. We are so thankful for this school.

Crabapple Academy is a phenomenal childcare facility that makes everyone feel like family. Choosing a daycare as a first time parent was overwhelming. From our tour to enrollment, the directors and staff have been supportive and helpful. Our child is thriving in their care, and the teachers are always giving feedback and updates. It's joy to see our child loved by the people we trust to care for her. I never doubt my child's safety, well-being, and happiness when she's at school because her teachers and the staff clearly have the children as their number one priority always.

I’ve had so much comfort and confidence in the school throughout the years. My kids have been in the infant & toddler rooms, PreK, after school - you name it! I’m so grateful for the staff’s dependability, adaptability, and transparency. Thank you for being a part of our village!

Crabapple Academy is simply amazing. My only regret is that my older son wasn't able to attend when he was younger like his little brother. My 3 year old absolutely loves going to "his apple school" (when he used to cry about going to his previous school.) I highly recommend...from the monthly art themes woven into the curriculum, the incredible school Director, staff & teachers, and the way they are navigating the current environment/covid situation with utmost safety while making the little ones feel happy and at ease...my family couldn't be happier with the Apple!

We absolutely love Crabapple Academy and the love and care they have provided for both of our children. The staff is so friendly and it truly feels like a family that we are all apart of. As a lover of the arts, I am so impressed with the monthly curriculum focus on different artists, coordinating hands-on learning, and themed monthly photo shoots. The photographs taken by Ms. Ellen are amazing and look fantastic decorating the walls of the school (and our home). The updates and pictures of classroom activities through SeeSaw is a fabulous way to stay connected and help us have better conversations with our toddler about what she did at school.

We cannot say enough great things about The Apple! Both of our daughters have gone here. One since 3 and the other since 8 months so we have experienced all of the different rooms and teachers and have been happy consistently. The teachers and staff are so friendly and fun, it really feels like a family there. We feel so lucky to have found this school and are sad our youngest graduates this spring. Also Ellen the owner volunteers her time to take beautiful photos of the kids all year long. It is an amazing perk

I can’t say enough great things about Crabapple Academy! All 3 of our boys have been here and our 2 oldest did GA Pre-K there so far. Everyone takes the time to get to know you and your family and I can tell they really love my kids - and my kids love all of them! Miss Ellen takes amazing photos too that they share with you. Miss Sara is super responsive and Miss Roberta is on top of everything too. We just love it there!

Regrettably after having my last baby, we gave up our spot in the infant room as we planned for care in our home (following the pattern of our older children until they turned 3). When our plan didn’t work out, we couldn’t get back into Crabapple Academy fast enough! I must have checked in weekly or monthly with the Director Sara. to see if we had moved up on the waitlist as we certainly missed the convenient location, the care of the staff, the teaching, and the AMAZING pictures that the owner, Ellen captures of all the children. We are grateful for Crabapple Academy.

Crabapple is awesome. My son has been attending for roughly 2 and 1/2 years. The teachers are amazing and adore my son as he adores them as well. He has learned so much at the school and has just blossomed there. The school is always clean and the staff is always friendly. Highly recommend crabapple Academy.

There is so much that goes into trusting someone with your child. We knew Crabapple was the right place for us from the first time we toured. They are a small center, family owned. They have longevity and stability in much of their staffing. The administrative staff have all been there for over ten years. My daughter loves going to The Apple and we love our Apple Family. ❤️?
