It also took about 2-3 weeks before he adjusted and stopped crying at drop off, but now he seems like quite the happy camper. We have 10 daycares in a 3mile radius. I went through a very through analysis, weighing pros and cons of my top 6 picks, and TLE somerset came out on top. If you want to nerd out, details here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WQ-ovFOmSkIKbl0gHo7dVcdvA3TnhRMNagCTfrsFbms/edit?usp=drivesdk The biggest pros were: snacks/lunches included (because ain't got time for packing food), very flexible schedule (part time or full time or whenever pickup and dropoff), long term staff and teacher that seem to really like kids, and reasonable costs. In terms of education, no idea how much a little person with the attention span of a goldfish can really learn, but he is constantly surprising me with words and hand signals that I know I never had the patience to teach. He's on to colors and counting now. He also roars when he sees dinosaurs. A few weeks ago, the center called to let us know about a mysterious bump on his head, and that they're concerned and will keep an eye on it. It turned out to be just a small mosquito bite he got from the night before (that I already knew about), but it showed that they do pay attention to the little things. Both parents and kiddo are happy with the experience here so far! Now if they could do something about the traffic on Easton Ave... that would be great =)

My 22 month daughter loves going to school at TLE Somerset, she's been attending 5 days a week…read moresince she was 5 months old. Heather, the Director, and staff treat us like family. We've been told over and over by friends and family in the early childhood education field that our daughter is thriving. Her social and learning skills are advanced but learning is never forced. We're very happy with TLE.

We recently enrolled both of our children at Guidepost Montessori at Somerset, and I couldn't be…read moremore grateful for the experience we've had so far. Our one-year-old daughter just started this month, and the staff have been incredibly sweet and attentive with her. From day one, I received plenty of photos and updates showing exactly what she was doing throughout the day. That level of communication made me feel so much more at ease, especially as a parent leaving a little one in someone else's care for the first time. In just a short time, she's already learning to spoon-feed herself and is showing so much more independence while exploring and walking around with confidence. Our four-year-old son has been attending for a couple of months now. He had been struggling with some behavioral challenges at his previous daycare, but since switching to Guidepost, we haven't had a single issue. The difference is night and day. The teachers here are clearly well-trained and experienced. They have a calm, confident presence and complete control of the classroom (which is no easy feat with a group of four-year-olds!). They keep the children engaged while also teaching valuable social skills, like how to play cooperatively, share, and respect personal space. In addition, our son has multiple food allergies and sensitivities, and the team at Guidepost has been exceptionally supportive and accommodating. They've gone out of their way to not only make sure his dietary needs are met, but to support me as a parent during what has been a tough transition to a new diet. More than anything, what sets this school apart is how much they genuinely care (not just about the kids, but about the entire family). I wholeheartedly recommend Guidepost Montessori!

I first want to add that, if you are like me, you are a parent that does extensive research because…read moreleaving your child with just anyone doesn't settle for me. I looked in to TWELVE daycares/schools in the surrounding areas of Somerset, Piscataway, Edison and Metuchen to find the best fit for me and my family. Guidepost Montessori by far stood out amongst the rest. There is no other school that teaches the practical life skills curriculum and montessori method like Guidepost. During my initial tour, you could sense the professonalism of the facility amongst the rest. I love that they allow the children to choose what they want to do/learn day by day. It is not your average school that has the same curriculum for every student. Each child is taught to their standards and their likings and that's is so necessary in little children. Whenever I walk into Guidepost, the guides and staff are always so professional. You always see each guide being so attentive and nurturing to their students. There is never a moment you walk in and they are not doing their job. I have went on several tours and was instantly turned off due to their staff not being attentive and/or using the cell phones. Guidepost is NOT like this at all. I was instantly attracted to their Nido room when I saw Ms. Gioia sitting and clapping with the babies. You can see the love and care she has for each and everyone of them. I knew I would be in good hands leaving my baby here. The facility. is also VERY clean! I love that they do inside shoes and outside shoes and for the NIDO class room they wear shoe covers to keep the floors clean for crawling children. If you're looking into Guidepost, you won't be disappoint. This is definitely a great place to have your children. My oldest son is in the mixed age Childrens House class and when I come to pick him up he gets upset and says "He doesn't want to leave." At Guidepost, you will be well taken care of. You will be well at ease knowing that your children are in good hands at Guidepost.

My husband and I toured MANY daycares in the area and decided to enroll in the Easton Ave KinderCare after meeting Ms. Amanda and visiting her classroom. As a first time mom, she made going back to work much easier for me and I love being able to check the app throughout my work day to see pictures, videos, food, diaper and nap updates. I've also been amazed at how much my son has learned at such a young age. Recently my son has transitioned to the toddler classroom with Ms. Sue (and Ms. Marcie in the afternoons) and he is absolutely thriving! There is structure and planned activities for the kids each day. Ms. Sue sends the most wonderful daily updates, pictures and videos. It's the highlight of my work day seeing how much fun my son is having in the toddler classrooms.

Child Time learning center in my opinion is one of the most dedicated caring and most safety…read moreconscious centers out there. The center is filled with dedicated loving and caring staff who truly want to be at their jobs and care about the children when placed in their care. My child has thrived and has come home talking, sharing and just learning so much this gives me a sense of relief knowing that she's in the best hands. Unfortunately, we are moving out of state and this is going to be very difficult time for us to try to find another center as wonderful and caring and that will uphold the same high quality standards as Child time does. If you're looking for a center with caring and loving staff take a tour and see for yourself.

My daughter thrived here at first and I loved it. But at the end when she came home every day…read moresaying the teachers were being mean, yelling at, and picking on her, my gut told me she needs to be somewhere else. It started when she came home with diaper rashes so bad I could not touch her to clean her or put her in her bath water on separate occasions. They were told several times she was super sensitive down there and it only takes a second to look. Then it was the call to the Division of Child and Family Services because she had a stain on her shirt and a leaf or two in her hair. Because I missed the memo that playing outside with your child in the morning instead of shoving a screen in their face was wrong. Then it was the push to get her evaluated for every little problem. She is an only child, so she was a little late to talking but once she started, she has not stopped LOL. But there was no need for a speech evaluation and I told them that but I did it anyway because I want to do whatever will help my child grow and thrive. They nearly laughed at the end of the evaluation because it was pretty much a waste of their time, but whatever. Then it was them saying they will help with potty training and telling me every day she wasn't asking or going potty at all. And that her behavior was "out of control" and not listening to them even though on two separate occasions she came home with bite marks from another student. My daughter can be a handful, there is no denying that. Then it was them "removing" her after giving me three weeks to change a 3 year old behavior. She is not somewhere else and OH MY GOD she is miraculously using the potty, listening to the teachers, playing with the other children. It was not my child that needs to be evaluated in this situation, maybe it's their teachers or methods.
