    Disappointed by how our daughter was treated at Girl Scouts Heart of New Jersey - The OVAL Day Camp…read more We enrolled our 5-year-old daughter in Oval Camp this summer, hoping for a structured, enriching experience. Unfortunately, what we experienced instead was disorganization, poor communication, and a lack of empathy. Our daughter had recently been diagnosed with ADHD, we shared this with the camp, along with tools and recommendations from her psychologist. Despite this, we received vague reports about behavioral issues with little detail or follow-up, sometimes sent a day later, making it difficult to support her effectively at home. We were never warned that dismissal was being considered. In fact, just one day before she was removed from camp, we were told she was in great spirits, and we are making a progress. With only three days left in the program, we were asked to pick her up early and told she could not return. What hurt most was how this was handled: she was separated from her group and not given a constructive opportunity to reflect or reintegrate. She didn't understand why she was no longer welcome at a place she enjoyed, and we were left to explain it to her in a way that wouldn't damage her confidence. When we asked for a refund for the three unused days, we were initially told it would not be granted due to behavior-related dismissal. That response, after everything, was incredibly disheartening. An hour later, we received an email saying the refund would be issued but by then, the emotional damage was done. It was too late. We brought our concerns directly to Girl Scouts Heart of New Jersey leadership before leaving this review, hoping someone might acknowledge the situation or take steps to address it. No luck on that either. We're not looking for sympathy, just accountability. No 5 year old deserves to be dismissed, especially one who is trying her best and needs understanding, not rejection.

    Our experience with this preschool, was absolutely amazing and exceeded all our expectations! We…read moresaw ,firsthand, the positive impact it had on my nephew. From the first weeks, the teachers made a genuine effort to support his adjustment, keeping us , thoroughly informed and ensuring he felt secure and always included. That level of communication and Genuine care made a big difference for our family. Their classroom environment is very structured, organized, and welcoming. It is a setup, where the students, are not overly stimulated and they keep it simple, but, yet, very relaxed and productive! Smart Starts Academy has a curriculum , in which, encourages learning through, play while building important social and academic skills. Over time, we noticed improvements in his confidence, language skills, and enthusiasm for learning, which speaks volumes about the quality of instruction and Attentiveness to each student in their classroom! Emotions that each child may carry ,throughout their day, was Never ignored , but rather, very respected and handled with Extreme care and Genuine Understanding! The staff is beyond,professional, attentive, and Deeply committed to each child's development and learning journey! This preschool sets a HIGH standard for early education, and we would confidently recommend it to any family seeking a program that combines strong academics with Genuine care. Furthermore, the fact that, the students are to wear a uniform, distinctively separates, from other schools,especially because, the students are grasping the idea that, "we are going to school" and it clearly shows the difference between all other schools in the area. I absolutely RECOMMEND Smart Starts Academy and it will Not disappoint! The Smart Start Academy is a Great School for each child's first major steps in Learning and socially engaging in Healthy and Sustainable Growth and Development!

    Our 3year old has attended Smart Start Academy (SSA Lumbar House) in Jersey City for almost a year…read more We are so happy with the facility, staff and overall program. 1) Love the mandatory uniform. She associates her uniform with "going to school", which is a great visual prompt to get us ready & out the door each day. 2) The administration and staff are so helpful & have been extra accommodating to her special needs. There is a great curriculum including an introduction to Spanish language skills & preschool preparation (tracing letters, using glue sticks & scissors, etc) . It's truly like a school rather than just a daycare facility. She loves her teachers Mrs Ruth & Miss Justine :) 3) The tech used by the facility is great. The app lets us check her in & out for the day with ease. We get information and photo updates throughout the day. 3) Food is healthy and our picky eater never goes hungry.
