Schools in Closter, NJ

“This Montessori-based academy is truly one of a kind. My son attended from age two through the June before kindergarten. We tried two other daycares/schools in the area prior to Evergreen and struggled to find the right fit in both structure and environment. Evergreen stood out as top-tier from the moment we walked in.

The teachers are incredibly welcoming and clearly understand the responsibility that comes with caring for our little ones. Their consistent communication and photo updates made me feel like my son was still a part of my day, even when we were apart. They foster a family-friendly environment while also teaching strong foundational skills.

My son left Evergreen extremely well-prepared for kindergarten. I would recommend Evergreen 1,000%.”

“Yoga Therapy Course is an easily understood and very informative way to understand how to help myself heal and how to help others. Body systems are studied scientifically and also with Eastern holistic self-healing. In depth with science based research and medical understanding of physical and mental health, instruction is covered with experience based application as we moved our bodies. Very applicable to incorporate in my daily life to improve my health. Coaching flows to systematically observe as we help others. Listening to Master Bama Kim assist each participant reflected how this practice can be applied to help many people including ourselves.”

“There is just no place quite like Lindgren, (look and you won’t find) It carries a unique spirit of childhood and wonder that only 82 years of growth and understanding passed down from generation to generation can accumulate. My son (and I) were blessed to have 3 wonderful years there, and now a 1st grader, he continues to go to their summer camp, a perfect way to balance a year of public school :) , now a tradition he looks forward to. He thrived in this outdoor woodland wonderland, made strong friendships, developed an avid imagination, is unconventionally creative, unafraid, never “bored”, has low interest in devices, and I really believe it’s thanks in big part to the foundation built at Lindgren.
His skilled and nurturing warm teachers walked with him from year to year, and being a single mom, they sometimes walked with me too. The school continues to grow and develop with lovely additions like the pottery studio in the barn, a beautiful greenhouse and gardening area, and let’s not forget the always adorable collection of farm animals to love…and so much more.
If you’re looking for a place that’s nature based, literally down to earth, will support you in growing a loving, kind and confident human with a foundation that will last a lifetime, then count your lucky stars you found Lindgren.
Knowing that I could go to work everyday and had full confidence my child was in fantastic hands, was priceless.”

“I needed a place that is small, fun and educational for my now 4 year old son, and this place was IT! All the teachers are very loving and patient with the kids. My son (as well as the other kids) come out of school SO happy, it makes my mama heart explode with joy! I would 100% recommend this childcare!”

“Both my daughters love going here! My eldest went from age two and graduated here. She was more than prepared for kindergarten by the time she graduated, thanks to the wonderful teachers. My second is still at Everbrook. I started her around age 2, and she is having fun, making friends, & learning so much. Teachers are loving, nurturing, and caring. The school leadership is so hands-on and exceptional. And the principal and education manager have really put in so much structure with their leadership. Can’t wait until my third baby is ready to start here!”
