Schools near Bordentown, NJ

“Finding the right daycare was extremely important and from the moment we walked into Over the Rainbow, it immediately felt like the right place. Jessica was amazing from the very beginning, answering all our questions and guiding us through the process. The teachers and staff are always smiling and laughing, making the environment feel friendly and welcoming. Ms. Brianna and Ms. Febe have been so amazing in helping our daughter get use to daycare and I love how comfortable she feels around them. Ms. Maya and Ms. Kristy are so sweet and Ms. Ashley is always giving a warm welcome. Couldn’t recommend them enough.”

“This daycare has such a warm, welcoming feel. It’s the kind of place where you can immediately tell the kids are happy and cared for. The staff are genuinely kind and attentive, and they create a really nurturing environment. One thing I really love is that there are two great playgrounds, lots of space for the kids to run around, play, and just be kids. It’s such a comfort knowing they’re spending their day in a place where they feel safe, supported, and free to explore.”

“We feel truly fortunate to have our son enrolled at Inclusive Montessori. The dedication and care shown by the entire teaching staff have been exceptional. Special thanks to Miss Dipika and Miss Kala, who have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure our son feels supported and comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better environment for his early development.”

“My daughter started at Goddard three months ago. This is her first school, and we’ve had a truly wonderful experience so far. Everyone at the school is so welcoming, and they take the time each morning to greet the children. My daughter is very attached to me, but Ms. Liz has done a fantastic job helping her transition into school and making her feel welcome and included. Although it still takes a little time each morning for her to join her classmates, both my family and I believe she will continue to grow and thrive at Goddard West Windsor.”

“The best place for my daughter! She absolutely loves ALLL the teachers! A good feeling as a parent is when you feel and know they are treating your child like their own, and all of the teachers are amazing and treat them like their own!! Facility is nice and clean! Super spacious! Lots of activities! And they include the littles in almost everything they can do! They have the best parties ( carnival theme, luau ) we love it!!”

“Our child has been going to this daycare since the past 2 years. We have seen him grow so much as a person with strong vocabulary and interpersonal skills. They have a variety of activities for kids throughout the day to keep them engaged and learn. Our child even made amazing friends at TLE! However, he's had couple of rough incidents with another kid, who injured him. The staff responded to us in a kind manner and till this day make sure that our child is not in the same room as the other rough kid. The staff is very attentive and responsive to your concerns. We like TLE Lawrenceville!”

“I did my research and checked out quite a few daycares before settling on this location that was recommended to me by other moms.

I have sent my children to this center for roughly three years and I can’t say enough good things about Kindercare. Vicki is an absolutely phenomenal director of the daycare and from day one made me feel at ease about sending my kids there. I had a lot of questions and was overall very anxious as a new mom and she made sure to give me frequent updates and put all my worries at ease about dropping off my little one there. Vicki always responds to all emails in a very timely manner and is always available for any questions/concerns which I really appreciated. Again, I can’t say enough good things about Vicki, all the teachers and the center overall!

Overall, all the teachers are amazing at the center as well and lead teachers have been the same the entirety of my time there. The teachers really go out of their way to make the kids have a good day and make all the kids feel special and loved. I always felt safe and comfortable knowing the kids were in good hands. Any problems/concerns/issues that ever arose were quickly addressed and honestly I can’t say how good my experience has been at this center.

You can tell if adults care about working with children and I can say from my experience Vicki and the teachers genuinely care about the kids and their wellbeing as well as growth. Vicki was also so supportive and accommodating on any changes/requests I had regarding moving schedules that helped us out immensely. They also do annual reviews for the kids to let you know how far they are coming a long in their skills and to make sure kids are ready for kindergarten.

Kids spend so much time at daycare in this day and age due to working parents and we all need to make sure our kids are safe, well looked after and are actually learning at daycare. The center has a lot of activities through out the school year and especially during the summer as well. and they had chicks they hatched this past summer which the kids loved! Graduation was very emotional for the kids as well as the teachers as they all genuinely were so proud and happy for the kiddos for how far they all came along.

There is also an app that they upload frequent pictures of the kids and schedules/important information - I loved being able to see what my kids were doing during the day. Kids are also given breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack which was so nice so we didn’t have to worry about packing lunches/or if they were fed well. The menu comes out well ahead of time and meals are overall balanced and nutritious. The kids were also provided diapers/wipes/formula but I am unsure if that policy is still in place post Covid - so if you calculate the cost of good care, meals, formula, diapers/wipes - the center is absolutely worth it. Overall, if you are looking for a good daycare this is the place to go!”

“The value is definitely here, staff engaging, my little comes home every week showing some new skill knowledge or verbal enhancement. Id give the facility 5 stars but like most daycares my kid comes home sick more then i would like, but with a shift of perspective my daughters immune system is being strengthened for her life ahead.
Thank you god for taking care of my daughter, niece, and Nephews.
This place gave taken great care of the next generation of my family.”

“Enjoyed our time at this daycare. Miss Andrea was very helpful and knowledgeable; always made sure the kids and families had all tools and skills needed to progress in their educational journey- very satisfied with the care from her, miss steph, and the rest of the ladies. Youre all appreciated!”

“After exploring many preschools in the area, we could not be more pleased that we chose DNPCCNS for our children. They have blossomed in the nurturing and enriching classroom environments created by the teachers. Each day, they run into school with huge smiles on their faces. The teachers and staff truly go above and beyond to meet the social-emotional and academic needs of each student. All of the head teachers are experienced and state certified. There is also a strong sense of community among the families, and there are various student events throughout the year to help foster these relationships. We are so grateful for everything DNPCCNS has done for our family. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm and caring preschool that also prepares children for future success in elementary school.”

“My three children have had wonderful experiences at Rainbow Academy! They are well cared for, happy, and academically ready to start Kindergarten in the fall. The staff is creative and kind and they have even begun food exploration for the letter of the week which has been a great way to try new things! We will certainly miss them when we graduate and recommend them for a wonderful preschool/daycare experience!”

“Nothing but wonderful things to say about Goddard. They are so responsive and attentive to every child and parents needs. The curriculum is well rounded and the children are ultimately prepared for Kindergarten. The teachers go above and beyond to make children feel safe and comfortable. My daughter is very anxious and has a hard time leaving mom; now she doesn’t want to ever leave school!!! Great job to Kim and the rest of admin. Juliana, Victoria and Caity are wonderful teachers that we will miss once in elementary school. Thank you always ❤️”

“My oldest daughter has been going to Growville daycare for almost a year now, we are very happy with the school! All of the teachers take great care of our girl, she mentions Ms Carol Ann a lot ?

The owner is very kind and the manager is orderly!”

“My son has only attended this facility for a short time, but I am already so impressed! This place and the staff REALLY care so much about the kids, and put in time to update with pictures and videos all day long. Each staff member I meet is always all smiles and so welcoming. Truly a blessing, my son finally loves getting up in the morning to attend a program.”

“Our son loves going to school and we cannot say enough about how caring and loving the teachers are. We started at 6 months in the Young Infant classroom. Ms. Christina, Ms. Sandra, Ms. Nadine and other exceptional caregivers have provided our baby with care and spent countless fun-filled moments with him. Our son transitioned to the next-level room from the infant room this week and Ms. Christina came in ON HER DAY OFF to make sure him and another child transitioned seamlessly. For now he is still upset about the change and misses his previous teachers every morning, but the new teachers make sure there is enough play and hugs to ease him in. I saw one of the teachers easing James to sleep for long, long, minutes during nap time the other day (I think it was Ms. Spencer). It really feels like my baby is safe, happy, and learning new things at Lightbridge. I could not recommend them more.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Jacqueline and Discovery Daycare. I was extremely nervous starting my son in daycare right before his second birthday, but I am so glad that I did. The difference I immediately noticed in his development was wonderful. He went from only saying a few words to speaking full sentences, signing for things and singing. You can tell that she and all of the staff truly care about the children there. My son loves going to school everyday and I am so incredibly grateful for how much he's grown and how dedicated everyone is to ensuring these kids are set up for their future.”

“My daughter's and I had the most wonderful experience attending Kids Corner. We still drop in when in the area to say hi. I recommend kids corner to everyone in need of child care.”

“We chose the Goddard School for our children for many reasons. I was impressed by the school’s wholistic early education curriculum which fosters learning through creativity, self expression, developing quality social interactions and interpersonal skills, as well as HAVING FUN! The choice was easy after taking a tour and meeting the Owner, Christine Matthey, who shows an extreme level of compassion, empathy, patience, and experience working with young students. I felt “at home” during our meet and greet and knew my children would be in the best care.
I very much appreciate the quality care my children receive with educators who take their jobs seriously but also visibly adore teaching and caring for our children. Every teacher/ assistant teacher I have met is patient, professional, compassionate, and take wonderful care of our children while helping them grow to meet their full potential as “little learners”. My children ( ages 5 and 21 months) are always excited to see their teachers and development has really grown in behavior, language skills, emotional regulation, and curiosity. The Goddard School promotes high parental involvement and we are able to carryover what our children are doing at school through books/activities at home. Above all else, my children are happy and thriving at the Goddard School.
We love being involved with our children’s school and happily accept invitations to volunteer and participate in school activities. Thus far, we have attended and end of Summer BBQ and participated in the Halloween Trunk or Treat. Both of which were a blast! The opportunities to show up and be a part of the classroom are very welcomed. This is more than just a job for these teachers, The Goddard School feels like a family.”

“I’m so thankful we chose to bring our son here. The teachers are patient, caring, and overall great with the kids. The owner (and teacher!) Ms. Mara, has created a very welcoming environment and you can tell she’s very invested in these kids and their success.

The kids are given a significant amount of playtime, in which they are given the opportunity to explore the classroom and find what best peaks their interest. (When weather permits, they are outside a great deal as well) Art projects and educational lessons are fun and engaging. (You’ll notice a lot of hands-on learning and sensory play)

During some months (especially summer) the classes go on field trips or have visitors come to school. Considering most schools have done away with those types of experiences, it’s nice that the kids can have that here, before they’re off to Kindergarten.

This school is run with children at the forefront. They’ve truly exceeded my expectations and there aren’t many negative things to be said. My son looks forward to going to school each day and the amount of growth we’ve seen has been incredible to watch. He’s more confident, articulate, patient, and eager to learn.”

“I love bringing my children to Kid Academy, they are very informative and educational. Kid Academy is very clean and the teachers are wonderful. Ms Alexa is fantastic with the children and interacts with the parents accordingly.”

“This daycare is easily the best decision my husband and I made. Pam put us at ease from the very first day our son attended. We were already so nervous about switching daycares as we just moved to the area and we knew the transition would be tough for our son who had made so many friends in his previous school. I was nearly in tears the first day we dropped him off. Pam stayed with him to get him adjusted to the classroom and even checked in with me to let me know how he was doing. I love that at kiddie academy, our child isn’t just one of the many kids who attend this daycare. Many of the staff members know my son by first name and greet him whenever they see him. You can tell how much they care for each and every child in this school. I read countless reviews when deciding on a daycare for my child. I had literally lost sleep researching all the daycares in the area and reading reviews from other parents. I knew after we toured kiddie academy Hamilton that this is where our son would excel. He’s been attending for a few short months but WOW, we have seen such a huge change in him! He speaks more at home, has picked up so many new words and phrases and our once VERY picky eater (who would only eat goldfish and teddy grahams) was eating nutritious meals provided daily by the school and using utensils! Thank you kiddie academy Hamilton for giving our boy so much love and attention. We have nothing but praise for this school and the wonderful staff ?”

“This Goddard School is more of a second family. We sent both of our boys here from 2021 to 2024, from ages one and three up through four and five. I cannot say enough good things about this place! The level of care for each child exceeded all my expectations. The teachers genuinely cared for my kids and helped them to learn and succeed in a fun and exciting way. I was particularly impressed with how the school handled behavior issues with my younger son, he had a very rough time and they worked with me and my husband as we worked to improve his behavior. I felt so supported and knew my son was seen for his big heart despite his behavior. Through the months of working with both a behavioral therapist and the school, we were able to turn his behavior around completely! The behavioral therapist even mentioned multiple times how she was impressed with the school's responsiveness and that she could talk directly to the teachers to discuss methods of behavior improvement. I recommend this to anyone looking for not just a daycare, but a loving place to raise a smart, intelligent child. The owner is fully invested in how well this place is run and is personally there almost daily. She cares about how the teachers and students are doing, and it really shows in the quality of care. Both of my boys loved going there every day and missed it when they went to their next schools. And both my boys were ahead in their new schools because of the amazing curriculum at Goddard. I miss going there every day to drop off and pick up my kids, being greeted by the front staff, and seeing the excitement as my kids would run to their classrooms. I will forever be thankful our family was blessed with having this place as a second home for our kids as they were growing up. THANK YOU GODDARD!!!”
