About Us

At Apolo Daycare and Pre-K we have a mission:

To prioritize the development of essential skills in your little ones. We help them solve problems, develop their empathy, teach them to communicate and express their creativity.

We are the bridge your children need to develop at every stage of their development. 

  1. Our environment is designed to support their emotional and intellectual growth.
  2. We give them the tools, games, materials, social exploration and support to develop their talents and have stimulating and fun activities.
  3. We care for them with love and professionalism so that they can develop a empowering philosophy, strengthen their self-esteem and feel confident and secure with themselves

We share your values

Honesty: We encourage open and transparent communication between our staff, children, and parents. By modeling honesty and teaching its importance, we create an environment where children feel comfortable expressing themselves truthfully.

Respect: We foster an atmosphere where everyone’s thoughts, feelings, and boundaries are respected. We teach children to appreciate and embrace diversity, kindness, compassion and understanding from an early age.

Empathy: We strive to create an environment where empathy is encouraged and practiced on a daily basis. Not only for and between children, but with staff and parents. By understanding one another, we form a beautiful community.

Reliability: We understand the importance of being reliable for working parents. Our staff keeps schedules, maintains open lines of communication and ensures that your child’s needs are met with the utmost care and professionalism.

Safety: Safety is our top priority. We maintain a safe and child-friendly environment by implementing rigorous safety protocols and procedures. In addition, our staff is thoroughly trained to ensure the well-being of all children.

Responsibility: Responsibility is instilled in all aspects of our day care. We encourage children to take responsibility for their actions, their belongings and the well-being of others; and we hold ourselves accountable to the standards, expectations and tasks that are required of us as educators.

Request personalized attention to solve all your doubts about our daycare center.

I will be happy to have you as part of the Apolo family.

Meet our Director and Founder

Maribel Aguilar

Hi daddy and mommy!

I’m Maribel Aguilar and I’m happy to see you exploring our web site.

I am the Director and Founder of Apolo Daycare and Preschool. I was born in Guanajuato, Mexico, and I am a single mother of 2 beautiful teenagers: Kelly (18) and Yamilee (14).

I have different passions: music, traveling, listening to podcasts? and helping my community by committing to the holistic, happy and optimal development of each child!

But my passion for child development is also my profession! That is why I have prepared myself academically, specializing in ECE and taking classes in music and movement, nutrition and other early childhood development needs.

My interest in creating better communication links between my company and parents led me to take life coaching courses, so I can support families and understand their goals and needs.

My experience includes:
 – 9 years in the field of education and childcare for 9 years.
 – 5 years as a preschool teacher.
 – 4 years as a full-time nanny.

Founding Apolo is for me to have created a safe, happy, loving and educational space where children, parents, staff and I learn, have fun and grow together.
