Schools in Newark, DE

“As first time parents without the option to stay home, we had a really difficult time choosing a daycare for our 5 month old daughter. Little Stars was recommended to us by a coworker, and I am grateful every day that we chose to enroll here.

The owners and teachers are extremely kind, patient, and understanding. I completely trust my baby in their care, and I was so afraid I would be unable to do that with a daycare. The infant teacher, Miss Erica, spends a ton of one on one time with each baby. We've already gotten two adorable art projects that they've done together!

Also, the facility is very clean and I like their open classroom concept. I feel so lucky that we found Little Stars.”

“I have my 3 1/2 yr old grandson enrolled at the Meadowood Kindercare. He has been there for 4 months and already we can see a positive difference! He's learning so much and is happier. We can't thank the staff enough for caring about him the way they do and Jessica ( The Director) is AMAZING, you'll always see her in a classroom interacting with all the kid's!!”

“They’re so sweet and they have teach my 1 yr old so many new things and they take so much care of the kids and do so much with the kids I love this school so much”

“We love Paxson lane KinderCare! My daughter has been going there since she was almost 2. It’s going to be biter sweet when she graduates out of KinderCare this year and starts kindergarten. Ms Aaida, Ms. Giana and Ms. Carolyn are such amazing teachers. The directors, Ms Irene and Ms Susan are extremely pleasant to deal with. My daughter asks us to drop her off early on most days so she can get her fun day started at KinderCare. She absolutely loves it there!!”

“My toddler currently attends LELA. I personally have grown to love it and so has she. My personal favorite is the key fob entry and the online daily updates that give me peace of mind. All the employees are friendly and inviting, including the director, which makes it easy to communicate any needs or concerns you may have. They constantly have small events that the children can look forward to and my child has already learned so much just from socializing with other children daily. They are always doing activities daily so be rest assured that your child will actually be learning and growing instead of just watching tv all day.”

“Our family started attending Cadence summer of 2025. Being new to Cadence was a little scary but the staff there are amazing. They are very helpful and provide families with resources that are needed. They are also understanding and you can tell that they enjoy what they do. Our family loves it here and we are very grateful and happy with the services provided. My youngest always smiles when he sees his teacher and my oldest enjoys playing and learning with his teachers and friends. It’s like having another family. Thank you Cadence ❤”

“This is the best daycare. The teachers really love the children and teaching the children. They go above and beyond to ensure the kids are prepared for their next steps in life. Ms. Veronica always showed love and care and seemed to take a personal interest in my sons development. Mrs Lisa and Joe were so accommodating I felt as if they cared for my son personally. I love the goddard school, it's like a second home for my son. We will miss them graduating to kindergarten, they've been family for 2 years! Enrolling was the best decision for my son being an only child he developed so well and was challenged learning new things, being outdoors, learning team building and sports!”

“We’ve been at NDN for six months now, and our experience has been fantastic! Communication is always easy and clear, and the staff truly listens to parents’ feedback. They’ve supported our family through some tough times, and we’re so grateful.

The atmosphere is always warm, joyful, and positive. Our child walks into the classroom every day with a big smile, excited to see his teachers. We couldn’t be happier with the care and environment at NDN!”

“very patient staff, always friendly, my child always enjoys going to school and talks about all her friends and the teachers. I will always recommend this school to anyone and Everyone!”

“My son attended for about 6 months and from start to finish, our experience was AMAZING. The admin, the teachers, the aftercare - everyone was always kind, patient, attentive, and dedicated to their jobs. This isn't daycare - they are intentional with your child each day. I could see the development and growth in my son that I don't think he would've received at home alone. Not to mention, I believe this Bright Horizon facility is the most beautiful: large play grounds, colorful and bright rooms, and a huge atrium for indoor play. If you are considering this location for childcare, do yourself and your child a favor and choose it!”

“Bright New Scholars Academy has truly set the standard for excellence in early childhood care and education. From the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with a warm, welcoming environment that immediately felt like an extension of our family.

The facility is clean creating a safe and nurturing space where children can thrive. Both of my children have been enrolled since they were three months old, The staff is not only caring and attentive, but also deeply committed to each child’s growth—emotionally, socially, and academically. Their structured approach to learning is balanced beautifully with genuine affection and individualized attention.

What stands out most is their open and consistent communication. As a parent, it’s incredibly reassuring to be kept informed and involved every step of the way. Bright New Scholars fosters a partnership with families that’s built on trust, transparency, and shared values.

We are beyond grateful for the love and dedication they pour into their work each day. It’s more than a childcare center—it’s a place where children are truly family.”

“Our family attended 11a service at N.U.M.C. last Sunday. The community was welcoming and encouraged our participation during the ceremony. We appreciated the activity packet that the usher gave to our daughter- it kept her occupied for most of the service. N.U.M.C. offers a great deal of benefits for families, young people and those in need. The atmosphere is relaxed, though not informal, and helps to create an atmosphere more focused on sharing and receiving the gospel and testimony. We look forward to returning in the near future as we journey to find our new church family.”

“ABC Kids Academy has been such a blessing for our family. My daughter attended here before moving on to Head Start, and because of the wonderful experience she had, choosing this daycare again for my son was an easy decision. He started at ABC Kids Academy when he was just 4 months old and is now 1 year and 8 months and the care he receives has been exceptional from the very beginning.
The staff at ABC Kids Academy are patient, loving, and truly attentive. They treat every child as if they were their own, which gives me so much peace of mind each day. The environment is always clean, safe, and filled with activities that encourage learning, growth, and exploration. I can see the difference in my son's development, socially and emotionally, thanks to the thoughtful care they provide.
As a parent, having trust in the people who care for my child is everything, and I feel completely confident leaving my son in their hands. Their communication is consistent, and I always feel welcomed and respected whenever I walk in.
I highly recommend ABC Kids Academy to any parent looking for a daycare that feels like a true extension of family. They have supported both of my children, and I am beyond grateful for the love and dedication they bring every day.”

“When looking for a daycare safe that I can trust and depend on, This daycare is the first on my contact list. I couldn’t wait until my kids turned 1 to go here! I’ve had all 4 of my kids start and finish at this daycare for the pass 11 years. In every class and with every staff, From the 1 year old class all the way to the after school program. I love this place and know my kids are in good hands. They are very understanding and have worked with me on payments shows they really are for the kids and not after just money. I’ve also had to deal with not 1 but 2 of my kids who were behavioral and all needs were met to assure they were successful and everyone was safe. The staff is very well hands on and show they love the kids. Still to this day I have my last child currently enrolled. With a good morning greeting when we sign in, to a high five or blowing kisses when my child leaves.. this daycare is all about care and love! Thank you for all you do and have done. Great job”

“We’ve been at tutor time in Newark for over a year now and our son is doing so well! He will ask to “go see friends and Ms Keiti” even on the weekends. He’s had a few primary teachers but Ms. Keiti has been his favorite (and ours too!), she is calm, nurturing and creative- everything you could ask for in someone working with children. Ms. Maria is also wonderful, always making sure our son feels the warm welcome in the mornings- her enthusiastic greetings really helped him get comfortable during early morning drop offs, and she is always actively engaged in their classroom activities. We are grateful he is getting such a wonderful early learning experience.”
