“We cannot say enough wonderful things about my world. When our son first walked in the doors, he was incredibly shy and had very limited vocabulary, it was clear that social settings were a challenge for him. The transformation we’ve witnessed since then has been nothing short of amazing. His vocabulary has blossomed beyond what we could have hoped for, and the boy who once quietly kept to himself now actively collaborates and engages with his classmates every single day. This didn’t happen by accident. The warmth, patience, and dedication of the teachers and staff created a safe environment where our son felt comfortable enough to open up at his own pace. They clearly understand that every child develops differently, and they meet each one where they are.
We are so grateful to have found this place. It has made a real, lasting difference in our son’s confidence and development for the last 4 years . If you’re looking for a daycare that truly nurtures your child as an individual, look no further, this place is IT !”
“UCMAS is the best program for kids who start at early age, it helps with brain development and they will stand out in the crowd and their thinking power is amazing!!
My son started this program when he was 4.5 yrs during Covid before he started his Kindergarten. I still remember first class with Mrs. Saswati, the way she introduced this program to me and my son was extraordinary. He started online classes with Ms.Bhruga Patel, she is a great teacher - my son used to love working with her. Every year he grew so much and I was amazed to see how he mentally does all the math problems and earned awards at each level. He graduated during summer of 2024 and earned Grade 1 plaque.
I strongly recommend this program and encourage parents to join their kids !!”
“We had a wonderful experience at peace rose for prek3, prek4 and two summers. Ms. Carmen and all of her staff are nurturing, caring, and supportive. We would recommend to anyone for a well rounded and caring environment.”
“High Hopes is a fantastic place to send your children, my son loves going there. He can't wait wake up and go see his teachers and friends. High Hopes provides so much fun and exciting daily activities. Im very happy with leaving my son here.Christina P”
“Switching our son from his previous school to LBA was truly the best decision we could have made. The teachers are so dedicated to their work, and the curriculum is both engaging and fun — our son comes home every day excited to tell us about what he learned and how much he enjoyed his day.
The live feed also gave us such peace of mind, especially during those first few transitional months. His very first teacher at LBA was Ms. Orianna, and there aren’t enough words to express how thankful we are for the love and care she showed our little guy. He talked about her constantly, and it was clear that he felt safe, valued, and truly cared for.
Ms. Orianna went above and beyond for her class — always bringing creative experiments, crafts, and activities to life. She showed up each day with such positivity and energy, and her passion for teaching was felt by everyone. We couldn’t have asked for a better start to his early childhood education.
And now he’s moved up to the big kid class this school year, with Ms. Kim as his teacher. From the moment we first met her, she’s been nothing short of amazing. In fact, she was the one who gave me a tour of LBA when we were first considering the switch, and the lasting impression she made was one of the key reasons we ultimately decided to join. We feel so fortunate to have her as our son’s teacher this year and know without a doubt that he’s in great hands!”

“I was initially worried about the differences between our small very hands on Brooklyn daycare and a corporate run daycare but they've proven me wrong. Lightbridge has created the sort of environment where my kiddo can thrive emotionally and academically. We are queer parents and they've made us feel included and very seen. The teachers are fantastic! I am so glad we chose Lightbridge.”
“Brainiacs child care center has a phenomenal loving and caring staff and director . They cater to the needs of my child without hesitation! I have no concern when leaving my child in their care !

“Love The Learning Experience! My two kids have been attending daycare here since they were both 4 months old and my oldest attended during the pandemic (he is now 4.5 and the other is 2). They love coming to school and all the teachers and staff love them. Ms. Tanu in the infant room took care of both of them. Ms Deziree was the teacher for both in the Twaddler rm and that has been amazing. It put my mind at ease to have the same teacher taking care of my older son and then my younger son 2 years later. Both boys are thriving at TLE. In a time where it feels like there is no village, the teachers and staff at TLE are our village and my boys are so lucky to have them.”

“Choosing Alphabet Academy was one of the best decisions I have made for my child. I toured at least five other schools in the area, but this one truly stood out. Being family-owned gave the school such a warm, personal feel, and I really appreciated how willing they were to work with me to help ease my child into school.
Since starting here, my child has grown so much socially and academically. All of the teachers are so friendly and caring and really work well with the children. It really feels like a family, and that kind of environment is priceless as a parent. I cannot recommend this school enough and am so grateful we found them.”

The staff and teachers are amazing with the kids. We have our two kids enrolled and have never had an issue, teachers keep us informed throughout the day with messages and pictures. Our kids love their classrooms, friends and teachers.They also offer camera subscription so you can log in and see your kids whenever you want. Seriously, this is the only place I would ever trust my kids until they begin school. They have parent nights where you can leave your kids to go on a date, holiday events for the kids, class room parties and an outdoor playground where kids can run around safely.If you are looking for a DayCare facility, look no further than Lightbridge Academy.”

“Overall, my experience with Childtime Daycare has been positive. The staff is caring and attentive, and my child is comfortable and well taken care of. I appreciate the structured environment and the communication provided to parents. While no daycare is perfect, Childtime has met my expectations and provided a safe, supportive space for my child to grow.
The director at Childtime Daycare is absolutely amazing. She is professional, caring, and always approachable. From day one, she made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my child in their care. She truly goes above and beyond for both the children and the parents, and it shows in how smoothly the center is run. Her leadership creates a positive, safe, and welcoming environment. I’m very grateful for everything she does.”
“My now 9year old son has been attending Pumpkin Patch before/after care and summer camp since the age of 5. He started as a shy boy but with the love and attention the entire PP staff gave him he slowly came out of his shell. The peace of mind knowing that your child is truly cared for is unmatched. He will continue to attend their summer camp until he ages out! Throughout the camp weeks there are carefully scheduled activities in the community, pool time with swimming lessons, and even a trip to the Jersey Shore.”
