EXCELLENT Based on 35 reviews Posted on Marilyn Violet16 January 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our experience with the maple bear staff has been an absolute pleasure. My son thrives in their pre-K environment, he loves Mr. H and Ms. April. They have a full time educated staff that are with the students from morning to afternoon; I appreciate that they don’t cycle different staff in throughout the day. They also have a great structure that they follow each day with their classes. My son thrives in an environment where he knows what to expect and this is that environment. Maple bear does what they say they’re going to do. They are not a babysitter. They are a fantastic school that has structure and great communication. I am confident my son will be set up well for kindergarten next year.Posted on Meghan Staffeldt28 July 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place is very expensive but it is honestly worth the price. The facility, playground, staff, meals, etc. We've looked at other places to try and save money and none came close.Posted on Lindsey Schultz16 June 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We switched to Maple Bear with my 4 year old about 5 months ago, and I’m so happy we did. The teachers are wonderful and my son really enjoys the curriculum. They are more flexible during nap time and offer other quiet activities instead of forcing a nap. The management supports their teachers by keeping the teachers and students in classrooms consistent, instead of moving people around to maximize ratios. This consistency has helped my 4 year old build stronger relationships with his teachers and get excited about going to school again. I’m so happy we made the switch to Maple Bear!Posted on Suzie Parker28 April 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve waited a while to post this. Waited for something negative to pop up. But it never did. Maple Bear is worth the money. My daughter has blossomed. Lori and Belinda are true professionals and so are all the wonderful teachers. They are caring, involved, fun, compassionate, communicative. The last two years I’ve driven out of my way to bring my daughter here. And recently I found many other parents do too!! The collaboration to provide a fun learning environment is obvious and I am impressed and feel very lucky my kid got to experience it. Do your research, ask your questions, read the reviews and then choose Maple Bear. Thank you to everyone that loved my kiddo. We love you right back! ❤️ and I will continue to recommend you to anyone that will listen!!Posted on Carolyn Langlois6 September 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our twin girls have been at Maple Bear for over a year (now 2.5 years old) and we are so happy we switched. The director, Lori, and assistant director, Belinda, both clearly care deeply about their staff and the quality of care provided to the children under their watch. They have wonderful attitudes and show tremendous dedication. I have been particularly impressed with how well Lori has navigated the pandemic and the inevitable turnovers and staffing shortages. This positivity and dedication seems to trickle down to the rest of the team as I have been told numerous times by staff that they think it is an excellent place to work and it is obvious they all work very hard to support one another and truly love working with the kiddos. Even during uncertain times I never felt uncertain about my decision to switch my kids to Maple Bear!Posted on Talia Pearson7 July 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so glad we chose Maple Bear in 2015 and haven’t looked back! Both our children (now 3 and 6) have attended Maple Bear since they were 3 months old. When our oldest moved to Kindergarten, it was clear they had a great foundation from Maple Bear and were setup for success in school. We love the amazing staff. We have too many favorite teachers/caregivers at Maple Bear (every age group) to list them all here. We are grateful we’ve never had to worry about whether our children are safe, secure, and with caring individuals. We have only good things to share about our experience with Maple Bear over these 7+ years!Posted on Gabriel Best II26 May 2021Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm delighted to have my son attend Maple Bear. The teachers treat my son with respect and also demand it from him. I appreciate everything that he learns; it's exciting to hear him share a new phrase even though he's sometimes overly talkative! On a serious note, the teachers and school leaders work with us to make sure that he learns content and proper behavior. I have the utmost appreciation for this daycare and I am happy that my son attends. You will be too.
