Apple Tree Family Daycare — Daycare & Preschool in Burnaby, British Columbia

What parents say

  I sent my daughter to Judy’s when she was 18-month-old for 2 yrs. Judy is a very loving and caring person. I love the nature walk, crafting, story time but I love there the most is she teaches the kids to brush their teeth before nap time! As a first time mom Judy also gave me lots of guidance on how to develop my daughter together on her different stages. Even now we’re no longer going to Apple Tree Family Daycare because we moved, my daughter still misses Judy and Wendy a lot! I appreciated I found Apple Tree Family Daycare as our first daycare.

  My son went to Apple Tree Daycare for almost two years and I have nothing but great things to say about it. Judy is fantastic! She takes the kids on daily nature walks, they spend a lot of time playing outdoors, and have plenty of arts and crafts time, as well as preschool/kindergarten educational activities to help get them ready for school. The indoor and outdoor areas are big, spacious and clean. And...Judy basically potty trained my son, which was immensely helpful with my hectic schedule. We miss Judy a lot. I trusted her completely and knew my son was in good hands at all times. Can't say enough.

  This was the first daycare my daughter liked. She loved it so much that wanted to go to daycare even on weekends. 😁 Judy is so sweet and loving and caring for everyone. Helped me train my daughter to learn doing some day to day activities in her own like changing shoes, jackets, clothes, etc. Judy also helped me when I was need for extended care for few days due to family emergencies. Lots of good things to share. Also the photos you see on her website are true. Lots of play area, toys, and indoor space for kids. Nature walks are the best. She also got new room air conditioner during summer for comfortable naps and indoor environment for kids. That was really nice of her to care so much about our children. Can’t thank you enough Judy! Would have loved to continue if you had after school care too 😊. Anyway wish you all the best!

  A Heartfelt Recommendation for Judy’s Daycare I highly recommend Judy’s daycare (Apple Tree Family Daycare) to any parent looking for a nurturing, patient, and supportive environment for their child. When my son first joined, he cried for nearly six months—but Judy and her amazing team never gave up on him. They were incredibly patient, consistently engaging with him and helping him feel safe and loved. Over time, he not only adjusted but flourished. He made friends, learned how to interact with others, and even the parents became close—like one big family. Judy’s daycare truly became a second home for my son. He’s learned so much—academically, socially, and emotionally. His behavior has improved, and he’s grown into a more confident and disciplined little boy. I’m deeply grateful to Judy for her care and dedication. Today marks his last day at the daycare as he graduates to kindergarten. They held a beautiful ceremony to celebrate this milestone, and it was clear how much love and effort they put into making every child feel special. This journey has been transformative for my son, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like family and helps your child thrive, Judy’s is the place.

  I highly recommend this wonderful family daycare. My daughter started attending when she was 3.5 years old, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Judy is incredibly kind, attentive, and truly cares about each child. She taught my daughter so much — both educationally and socially. This daycare had a very positive impact on her development, and now that she’s moving on to kindergarten, we’re all going to miss Judy and her daycare deeply. We’re so grateful for the love, care, and learning our daughter received here.
