The teachers are warm, attentive, and truly understand early childhood development. They create a nurturing environment where kids feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. The program strikes a great balance between play-based learning and early structure. Our children developed strong social skills, independence, and confidence during their time there. Communication with parents has also been consistent and thoughtful, which we really appreciated. Our daughter went on to Beechwood School and felt very well prepared--both academically and socially--for the transition. It was clear that her preschool experience gave her a strong foundation and a love of learning. We're very grateful for the care and guidance both of our children received and would highly recommend Community Presbyterian Nursery School to other families.

Parents can feel confident and at ease knowing that their children are in trustworthy hands with Neha and the amazing teachers here. I have personally recommended Lightbridge Academy to many of my friends who also enjoy bringing their babies and toddlers here daily. The positive feedback I have received from them truly shows what a gem in the community LBA is. We are very grateful for a place where children can thrive and parents can feel confident in their choice of childhood education. :) thank you LBA Paramus!

I highly recommend the Keith Wold Johnson Child Care Center to any parent. This child care center…read moreis the hidden jewel in Edison. The center is unique because of its hospital affiliation providing high quality training to the educators and nurturing care to all children. It is also NAEYC accredited. The center is open all year round except for major holidays and provides before and after care programs. Each classroom has certified teachers and aids who provide exceptional care from infancy to kindergarten and offer camp in the summer. Currently, two of my children are enrolled in the child care center and this past June my oldest graduated from kindergarten. My youngest is currently enrolled in the infant classroom. The supervising teacher Debi ( baby whisperer) and all her staff are AMAZING and help foster a nurturing, loving and safe environment for my baby. When my baby started daycare she would not sleep in a crib at home and only slept in a recliner, Debi and her staff transitioned her to sleep in a crib in ONE week. I can't thank them enough! The child center also helped facilitate toilet training with my first and second children, I couldn't do it without their help. The child center also offers recreational activities such as ballet,hip hop dance, soccer, tennis, computers and swimming which my girls enjoyed very much. They also go on field trips to an apple orchard, Liberty Science Center, and to see a Play. The facility is very clean and safe and the office staff ( Helen, Marie, Anna, Anitha and director/principle Dr. Avonia Richardson-Miller) are always so helpful and pleasant and have always adressed any concerns I had. The kindergarten program is one -of-a-kind, the teacher Miss Erin is amazing!!! She is so passionate about teaching and she engages her students, making learning enjoyable and fun. Miss Erin has provided a great foundation for my daughter, and because of her, my daughter is confident and has excelled as a student. Miss Erin is the most organized and talented teacher you will ever meet . I would highly recommend KWJ for kindergarten to every parent. The staff is dedicated to providing high quality child care services. I always felt my kids were in great hands; greatly cared for in a loving and nurturing environment. The staff at KJW are like family who have had such a great impact on my children's lives . God bless the all for such excellent care.

St. Joseph The Carpenter School has a fast paced environment for elementary school children. The…read moreacademic expectations placed upon for example a student in 1st grade is elevated to the expectations of a 2nd grader. So each grade level is actually one grade level up. This creates an environment of stress for the child to reach those expectations. The pick up is chaotic. Very noisy in the cafeteria. It takes the teachers a long time to escort the child to the cafeteria for dismissal. There is no grassy area for the playground and thus children must play in the parking lot which is not safe. The massive amount of homework assigned to the student can be overwhelming so be prepared for that. Their school uniforms can only be purchased at one particular store and they are expensive. Overall, the school needs improvements to help children have fun while learning and not experience pressure to perform at the teacher's high expectations.

He cried most mornings before school and begged us not to go. We later saw Ms. Laisha and Ms. Wessal yelling at toddlers--aggressive, loud, and completely inappropriate. One of them even physically shoved our son in front of us. We raised our concerns with the franchise owners, Kinjal Parekh and Tina Patel, and were told we were "too picky." Their response wasn't to investigate or support our child--it was to suggest we leave. The front office staff, Ms. Ada and Ms. Kathryn, offered vague responses and no follow-through. We asked for documentation and staff qualifications and were met with deflection or silence. Other parents have had similar experiences--and some were asked to sign nondisclosure agreements. That should alarm anyone considering this school. We filed a complaint with the state and removed our child immediately. He still talks about the fear he felt in that classroom. This school failed our family. Please think twice before sending your child here.

Now that they are in a school that is strong on compassion, character and competence (the motto), they are thriving. My son used to cry or play sick to try and get out of going to his public school. The happiness that I see in him now makes my heart feel so good and brings so much relief. My daughter loves having spanish everyday and swimming lessons at the Y. Both kids have probably learned more in the first 2 months at AOSJ than they learned at the public school in one year. They are very happy with the quick pace of learning and feel that they are finally being "seen" for who they are and the talents that they possess. There is tremendous room for academic and personal growth at AOSJ. It was a gem of a find!
