They go out of their way to make sure she is safe, fed, clean, and happy. The director always calls me ASAP when I email, call, or text them with concerns or questions. They post pictures and activity updates throughout the day on their app. They provide time for play as well as themed lessons, social emotional learning, STEM, and art projects. They celebrate holidays and birthdays, creating a space that my daughter looks forward to going to each day. If you decide to join the Appletree family, your child will be in good hands!

He adjusted so well due to the amazing staff of teachers. The staff is so accommodating; they have answered all of our questions right away and send frequent updates throughout the day about your child. It is awesome to watch all of the activities and lessons the kids engage on throughout the day. With the pandemic, the school has been extremely cautious and following all of the state guidelines and hygiene protocols. My husband and I feel completely comfortable sending our son knowing the school is as prepared as they are. Since starting at Appletree, our son has become more social with other children, has displayed more patience, and his vocabulary has increased. I would give the testers and the school a 10/10!

Communication with ownership was often difficult and, at times, felt defensive or dismissive. As a…read moreparent, feeling heard and supported is important, especially when entrusting someone with your child. Attempts to meet in person to discuss my child's transition out of the daycare (with two months' notice given which I have copies of via email) were declined, and communication became passive-aggressive over email. While concerns I raised were ultimately addressed, the interactions left me feeling uncomfortable rather than reassured. My son came home with other children's' diapers and clothes on many occasions. There was so much disorganization. The owner monitors the comments of parents on private Facebook groups and is retaliatory towards them when they post anything critical. You will see this on their responses to critical reviews online as well. She sent out weekly emails reprimanding all parents for the actions of a few. I paid for an extra hour of care each day and came on time, often earlier than I needed to, but I still received these emails reprimanding everyone in the class. There was noticeable staff turnover, including two directors within one year. One departing director communicated to parents via email that the work environment was challenging, which understandably raised concerns among families. Some teachers appeared inexperienced and were frequently on their phones during pickup times, often requiring me to get their attention. While the teachers were kind to my child and did a good job teaching him, this was concerning. Information shared in the app was occasionally inaccurate (for example, meals reported as fully eaten when food was returned mostly untouched). The daycare itself is very small and lacks enough of a large open play space which is concerning, especially in the winter time. Parents were not allowed to enter classrooms to drop off or pick up their children. A friend of mine in town shared with me that her twin girls were coming home with bite marks on them and the owner denied that anyone was biting them and refused to allow them to look at the camera to see what happened. The communication style and leadership environment significantly impacted our comfort level as parents and ultimately led to our decision to leave. I am sharing this review to provide honest, respectful feedback based on our experience. I have noticed that some critical reviews appear to have been removed in the past. My intention is not to discourage others, but to offer transparency and encourage continued improvement.

My wife and I both work in the city (at least pre-pandemic), so the dependable childcare that TLE Paramus has provided has been very important. We have seen incredible, consistent emotional, social, and intellectual growth by my son over the past two years, which undoubtedly is due to the rich learning environment that TLE Paramus provides. I cannot imagine sending my son anywhere else for childcare at this point. Also, TLE Paramus's leadership has done an impressive job managing the center during the pandemic. It has not been an easy situation for anyone, but the leadership has done a commendable job creating a safe environment and communicating news regarding illnesses and positive COVID cases.

My 4yo and 14 month twins have been here for a month now- true game changer in my 4 year olds life. She has been in childcare since she was 6 months old. In the past month I have noticed an improvement in both her language and behavior. For the first time she is excited about "going to school" each morning. Such a relief from the mommy guilt of leaving her each day to work full-time. She loves her teachers, classmates, and the curriculum. The facility itself is beautiful, and the staff truly cares about the children. I love the added programs at no added cost - sign language, Spanish, yoga, etc is all included in the fee. My 14 month old daughter signed "more" the other day when she was finished with her snack - it was amazing! My 4yo signed "please may I have some more" back to her right after. A SUPER proud mom moment, thanks to the teachers at TLE. I would recommend this facility to anyone with a young child in the area (from 6 weeks to 6 years.) I have visited a number of other early learning centers in the area and this one is leaps above the rest in every way!

The prices are very fair and the curriculum, while fun, often is disorganized and forces learning down their throats when children should enjoy themselves and learning will come naturally.

They loved the weekly visits from the music/ASL teacher. The teachers also helped greatly with potty training once we started at home.

Our family was very disappointed with our experience at CAP. My child attended for just 5 months…read moreand during that time we discovered many issues with the school. 1. My child had a medical emergency while at the school and it was unclear how it was actually handled. We received different accounts from the director, area manager, the staff member who accompanied my child to the hospital, and the EMT's who responded to the event. When I asked to see the footage from the time period of the medical emergency I was denied the request. 2. Classes are often combined in the morning or after 4pm, even during disease outbreaks in those respective rooms. Many times I would pick up my child and my child would be in the room where there is a known presence of Croup or Hand Foot Mouth playing with the children from that room. This, to me, demonstrated a lack of genuine care for the well being of the children. 4. My child's teacher recorded and posted a video on the app of another child pushing and kicking my child. My child was kicked 4 or more times and there was no intervention by the teacher. When I addressed this with the director I was simply told this was normal behavior for the age group and if the teacher had deemed to to be excessive she would have addressed it. 5.While regular handwashing is talked about quite a bit during the tour, it was not happening. Many times I picked up my child either right after playtime/before a snack or meal time or during a diaper change and the children were never made to wash their hands. I addressed this observation once with the director and noticed no improvements. 6. My child came home twice with scratches on her body that the staff could never explain. One scratch spanned across her back. 7. My child came home many times with diaper rash, despite us providing 40% zinc oxide diaper cream. On one occasion, I picked my child up and was told that all 3 of the kids left in the room had diaper rash. I don't think it is a coincidence that the last 3 kids left in the room that day all had diaper rash.

If you are looking for a daycare with genuine loving teachers and a safe and nurturing environment,…read morethis is the place to go. When i was looking for a daycare for my one year daughter that was closer to home Emma Daycare is the first one that came up when i put in my criteria. I visited them and it was love at first sight! The first thing that i was happy about is that to enter the classroom every parent had to wear booties, which keeps the classroom clean and germ free rather than each and everyone walking in with dirty shoes. This is a place where kids spend 8-9 hours daily and it is very important the environment is clean and dirt free to ensure they do not fall sick. I have never had my child with a dirty/runny nose as the teachers have always been kind enough to clean them so that when i pick them up in the evening they are still like they were in the morning. My daughter hardly fell sick while she was there. The teachers are extremely patient and tolerant and even though she took her time to be potty trained they never showed attitude when they had to clean her. Every year she had wonderful teachers who genuinely love the children and not just a show of. Academically they are very focused and if a child needs to be challenged because they may be ahead to behind the class they are done without questions. In addition to academics the extra curricular activities like Champ Fusion, Jujitshu, Dance all being in one places saved me the effort of driving her around as i did have another child to cater to. The Winter Shows, Monday Day, Pumpkin picking even the Photographs that were taken professionally have all only added to our wonderful experience and i would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this daycare to everyone i meet. (In fact i have referred a few). Oh did i mention food? It yummy and my daughters still asks for it! Thank you Emma Daycare for taking such good care of my daughter.

Despite the fact that I left two voicemails, no one bothered to call me back. I find it extremely disturbing that a daycare center was so unresponsive when they are responsible for looking after young children. Parents should be able to get in touch with a daycare easily in case of any emergencies. After informing me during the tour that they had space for my child, it was bizarre that they didn't call me back. Perhaps they didn't respond because they're racist and didn't want my African American child at their Russian daycare. Either way, it was insulting and they are extremely unprofessional. I would definitely not recommend this daycare to anyone.
