Tuition has gone up ridiculously yet we agreed to pay because of the comfort of our child but when management themselves make the parents feel a certain way it makes us question how comfortable are our children!

I would really appreciate a call back from someone that can do something to help us the parents out on feeling comfortable with leaving our child and with complaints we have that will be handled.

Our daughter began attending Cornerstone Montessori when she was three and has been there for two…read moreyears. She has had a wonderful learning experience there and I credit her teachers for the warm and caring environment in which all the students are learning. The children learn everything from personal responsibility and life skills to learning how to read and write, developing a strong foundation in math skills, and an understanding of the world around us through social studies, geography, and science. The students enjoy weekly lessons in Spanish, cooking, gym, art, music, and more. The students also experience at least two field trips during the school year, playing in the snow (as long as they bring appropriate snow gear), Bike Day at the end of each month, a few celebrations, such as International Day where families come in and teach the students about their heritage. CMS encourages family involvement, whether it's participating in special events or coming in to teach a lesson. Families may be as involved as they choose to be and aren't pressured to do more than they can give. Cornerstone Montessori also offers before- and after-school care for working parents like us and three 2-week summer sessions. The summer sessions are great for parents who would like to check out the school and see if it is right for their child as well as for students who are already enrolled to maintain the skills they have developed during the school year and continue on their learning path. The summer sessions are more relaxed and additional fun activities are scheduled. We are so pleased with our experience at Cornerstone Montessori, and we are sure you will be, too. Come check it out!

Ms. Susan is the best Kindergarten teacher and the curriculum is advanced!! My daughter loves the fun Science experiments !!! We also have to give a big thanks to Miss Maddie who is always so thoughtful and a great asset to BBA. We made the best decision sending our daughter to BBA!! We will miss the staff but are so grateful for the foundation that was built as our little one heads to public school .

I first toured the Malvern School of Washington Township on a friend's recommendation. She…read moreselected the school after touring a number of preschools in the area and assured me that the Malvern School was the best. While I initially enrolled my then 2-year-old daughter due, in large part, to a friend's recommendation and the appeal of a NAEYC accreditation, those are not the reasons she is still there 2 years later. My daughter LOVES her teachers and I know, without a doubt, that they love her, too. They love her as an individual on her best and very worst days. When she is struggling to say goodbye in the morning, I know she has many welcoming arms to jump into in my absence. Her teachers and aids, not just those in her classroom, but all of them, know her and care about her. They have even expressed an interest in me as an individual and are so warm and supportive in the morning that it eases the tension of the morning rush. Additionally, as a teacher myself, I have been humbled by the quality of my daughter's lessons and the speed with which she is acquiring new information and skills. Her teachers challenge her with content I would have assumed was too advanced for a 4-year-old, but she loves it and thrives. I am certain that she would not be as academically prepared as she is now had she remained with a nanny. The social skills and increased rigor posed by a class of other children is something you cannot replicate in the home. I am SO glad I made the switch from in-home care to the Malvern School. Although we still have one more year there, I am already thinking about the day my daughter will graduate to kindergarten and the heartbreak we will both feel when our Malvern days end. I cannot recommend it enough.

UPDATE THEYVE DELETED MY REVIEW SO IM POSTING AGAIN…read more My son has been in daycare since 2 years old, never with any issues besides when he first started of course. When we moved to NJ he went to school as well in swedesboro. When we moved to deptford and transferred him to tutor time. Within a month, Hr would cry every morning, begging and pleading not to go to school. " I don't like school" "please I don't wanna go" etc. My husband and I just put it off because we just thought he was a normal 3 year old that didn't like going to school. He then would act out when we got home, terrible attitude, crying, hitting, it was almost unbearable. We talked to someone at the center and they mentioned how he wouldn't nap. Of course I know my child and I figured that could be a factor but they immediately dismissed any other concern. Fast forward a couple of months of literally heartache before and after school, Dmy husband gets a TEXT from his assistant teacher, saying she's quitting and walking out and she cares so much about our that she's worried about his safety because our son was being mistreated and she thought we should know. My husband immediately went to the school and talked to her, apparently two teachers were caught being high while "teaching" have been caught hitting children, falls asleep while watching kids and that they would purposely send our son home with sh*t in his UNDERWEAR just to inconvenience My husband and I because we were one of the last ones to pick him up for the day. I noticed on the cameras that this one teacher was ALWAYs sitting on her phone or the tablet they had. When my husband confronted the director she blew him off and offered half off tuition. My heart literally broke because our son was trying to tell us the best he could but he didn't know how. He's been at the learning experience ever since and has since never gave any issues going to school like he did before.

If I could give this location a negative stars I would…read more My current daycare is closing and we started looking for other daycares. I found Tutor Time and they seemed nice enough. We spoke to two of the teachers to make sure that they would be a match and they were fairly quite. Nothing that sent off any red flags so we started today. I dropped of my little one and went through some of the things that we brought with us along with how to work the reusable diapers that we are using. I asked if we could go inside to review because it was a lot that I just went over, but she said that they still weren't letting parents in still. I trusted them and went on my way. I finally got access to their webcams and was horrified to find my little one crying in the middle of the floor while teachers were gathered around chatting. After 5 minutes, they took care of my little one. Changed them and brought them into another room. I called then to make sure that everything was ok, and the Associate Director, Katie, said that they were taking my little one's temperature because they felt warm. I said that's normal since they were crying for about 5 mins without being tended to. Katie shrugged it off and we got off the phone. About 15 minutes, I see that my little one is in the class room again. I see them in one of the teachers arms and that teacher put my little one in the crib and I see that they are immediately crying and not ok. Another teacher goes over after a couple of minutes, picks them up and just puts them in the middle of the room and leaves the room all together. Does not ask any of the other teachers who are standing around chatting with each other to take care of my little one. I also see two other infants in baby bjorn's without being supervised all while this is happening. If you're looking for your child's basic needs to be met, if you're looking for community or interactions with other children and activities for them to be put in this is not your location. Our other daycare engaged with the children, read to them, played with them and yes there was an element of independence. My little one is able to preoccupy themselves once their basic needs are met. For example, their diapers changed, their fed, they're not cold, etc. Normal 9 month old things. None of these were met here. The diaper was not put on correctly, it was put on backwards and the liner was not even put in there. They coded on their app that they fed my LO, but there's no evidence of this at all. When I grabbed my LO, I met with the teacher and Katie. The teacher apologized and tried to justify what I saw. IE: there was someone who wasn't feeling well and left, the other teachers were talking strategy on how to handle this, etc. 1. The first thing I asked when interviewing the daycare was what was their turnover. They said they didn't see much and they don't close down. 2. The priorities should be on the children and figure out everything else when there isn't a screaming child and two others in baby bjorn's unattended. Transitioning to a new facility is going to be difficult. I recognize that there would be an adjustment period and that's why I didn't immediately pull my child out when I saw them crying on the floor by themselves. This went beyond that. This was absolutely neglectful. I am glad that Katie went ahead and terminated one of the teachers who did not act, but there are still three others who were there in addition, Katie, herself that is not being held accountable. Forgive my grammar, I'm pissed.

She said she gave my message to the owner and I'll have to call the new owners who have nothing to do with our time there-we left due to Mr. Patel's disrespect and attempts to take advantage of parents, despite written contracts he ignored. She refused to give me Mr. Patel's number and I said I'll call again until I can reach him. Her response: "We just won't answer." Don't send your kids to these people.
