About
Welcome to Sunrise Preschools in Apache Junction, where we pride ourselves on being a high-quality early learning center. My name is Amber Rice and I am the school Director. I have over 30 years of experience in early education field with 20 of those years being part of the Sunrise Preschools team. At our school, we strive to ensure that parents feel safe and secure leaving their children with us and that those children leave every day with a smile on their faces. We know that early education plays an integral role in establishing a solid foundation for their child's educational journey. Our goal for students is to foster an environment where each child can challenge themselves and achieve success. As many of our staff are parents themselves, we understand how rewarding, but also how demanding the role of a parent can be at times, especially a working parent. At our child care center, we are committed to providing a supportive community for the families we serve. We all want our students to be happy, nurtured, and provided with the best learning opportunities. All of our staff members are dedicated to providing a safe environment and assisting your child on their learning journey while giving them the freedom to explore and develop in a warm and caring environment. Please feel free to stop in for a tour or call to speak with a member of our team. We look forward to the opportunity to build a long-lasting relationship with your family!
