“Staff care deeply about the kids. Seems the entire staff knows every single child's name even if they aren't near their classroom. Meals, formula & snacks are included which is huge!!”

“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.”

The owner, Syeda Lubna Haroon, is incredibly kind, cooperative, and thoughtful. I highly recommend this school to any family looking for a nurturing and supportive environment.”

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!!”

A special thank you to Ms. Jasmine and Ms. Ashley for taking such wonderful care of my little one, and to Ms. Hanisha for always being supportive, understanding, and helpful. Ms. Renu and Ms. Mary are also incredibly kind and caring.

Everyone at TLE is patient, compassionate, and dedicated. My child is happy, safe, and thriving here. I highly recommend TLE to any parent looking for a nurturing and trustworthy daycare.”

“Goddard is incredibly special to our family. Everyone here, From the owner, to the wonderful ladies in the office, to every teacher is special. They are kind, loving, and always there for our family. Our boys love coming here and we always feel so good brining them here because not only are they so loved and well cared for, but they learn so much here. Their speech exploded being at school here. Goddard was th best possible decision our family made. We are incredibly grateful to everyone here who is apart of our village!”

“We truly feel that we made the right choice with this daycare. Our son started here as an infant at 10 months old, and now at 28 months, he is happy, confident, and truly flourishing.

Every morning, he walks in with a smile—and in the evenings, he often doesn’t want to leave, which is the best sign we could ask for as parents.

We’re especially grateful for the variety of activities, the thoughtful guidance, and the genuine care provided by the team. It’s clear that the staff truly cares about each child’s development and well-being.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone—from the teachers to the admin team, the director, and the owners. You all make such a difference, and we appreciate you more than words can say. ❤️”

“I can’t imagine a better daycare than Edgebrook KinderCare. Every teacher and staff member is kind, patient, and genuinely dedicated to the children. Miss Crystal is exceptional—she goes above and beyond every day, teaching not only academics but also life skills and positivity. Miss Vicki, the director, is incredibly responsive and always ready to help with any questions or concerns. We couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”

“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 ?”

“We’re extremely happy with the switch we made to Discovery Daycare. Simply put they do not make people like Jacqueline anymore. Her team here at Discovery is amazing. They are so caring, considerate and genuinely love my kids as their own. They constantly go above and beyond to make us parents feel included. My kids have flourished here and we couldn’t recommend it enough!”

“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.”

“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!”

“We absolutely love Lightbridge Academy of Lawrenceville! As a parent, there is nothing more important than knowing your child is safe, loved, and cared for, and that is exactly how I feel every single day. The care they provide is truly amazing, and all of the teachers are so patient, kind, loving, and dedicated to the children. The staff creates such a happy, welcoming environment, and it truly feels like family. My child has learned and grown so much since attending Lightbridge, and I am beyond thankful for the positive impact they have had on him both academically and socially. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is in such caring hands every day. All of the teachers are fabulous, but I especially want to give a special shoutout to Ms. Nay, Ms. Jada, Ms. Elena, and Ms. Alex for the huge impact they have had on my child's growth and learning. Their love, patience, and dedication do not go unnoticed, and I am so grateful for everything they do. I would recommend Lightbridge Academy of Lawrenceville to everyone I know without hesitation. We are so thankful to be part of such an amazing school community!”

“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!!!”

“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 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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“We absolutely love this school for our son! Owner, Lynn & Director, Holly are so sweet and welcoming. All the teachers are so kind and wonderful with the children. My son is 2 years old and started at 5 months old. I absolutely love everything about this school!”

“As a first-time mom, going back to work and leaving my infant in someone else's care was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. From day one, the staff and teachers have made that transition so much easier by creating a warm, loving, and welcoming environment.
The communication is outstanding. I love receiving daily updates and photos that let me see my little one smiling, learning, and being cared for throughout the day. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she's happy and in such capable hands.
Her teachers are attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in every child. It's clear they put their hearts into what they do, and it shows in the care and attention they provide every single day.
I couldn't have asked for a better first daycare experience for our family. Knowing my daughter is safe, loved, and thriving while I'm at work is truly priceless. I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a place they can trust with their little one.”

“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.”

“The best preschool in the area of Trenton. The teachers and staff are always attentive to the children. They show, nurture, care, and love to the children staff is qualified and with great working ethics.”

“We love TLE and are so grateful to the staff, who treat my son like their own. Our first classroom was Toddler A with Ms. Courtney and we were so grateful to her as my son experienced a number of ear infections and she would always call to give me updates if she noticed he was beginning to feel under the weather and she would comfort and support him just as I would. She would also call to check on him if he was home sick for the day. The TLE staff is wonderful and I cannot recommend them enough.”

“The staff at this childcare center are truly wonderful. It’s clear they genuinely care for and love each child as if they were their own. They are patient, attentive, and always so warm and welcoming. I have complete peace of mind knowing my child is in such a nurturing and supportive environment every day. We are so grateful for the love and dedication they show.”

“WOW, we send both of our children to the Learning Center and have had such a great experience. Previously, our oldest went to Kiddie Academy, which was nice but there is really no comparison to the Learning Center. The owner, Liz, knows every kid by name and they love hanging out with her. We truly feel that the women who take care of our children are an extension of our family and we know that they are giving our kids the love and care that they deserve.

Pros:
- Play first environment
- No screens
- Teachers that care
- Bring your own food (they do offer snack times)
- Community environment: they are always doing fun activities that involve the whole family like Trunk-or-Treating, Thanksgiving lunch with your kids, and more so you can meet other parents.
- Loving environment
- Lots of outdoor play”

“My kids have attended this school for several years. Teachers are amazing and very attentive. I feel very comfortable with my children here. They focus on religion and education correctly and my children have excelled here. Very good school.”
