“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 recently moved to the area and were overwhelmed by the school search. After touring numerous schools, Playhouse felt like a warm hug, putting our worries at ease that this would be the perfect school for our son. As the year has gone by, we have been blown away by the progress he has made, both emotionally and mentally, and how happy he is when he comes home each day. The whole staff is loving, supportive and super communicative, as well as the community of parents who are incredibly involved and reliable. We couldn’t ask for more in a school and would 1000% recommend.”

“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 can say that I was extremely nervous to step into a classroom setting for the very first time. I wondered if I would be a good fit and if I had anything valuable to give growing and impressionable future leaders. When I started Primrose, I was taken in immediately as if I’ve always been there. I appreciate that administration and the teachers were so patient and understanding with me being new to a classroom setting. Before you knew it, I felt like I could take on any classroom or situation with the same grace and encouragement that I received from Primrose. I will always remember everything and I will always appreciate Primrose, so thank you for the experience and thank you for making me feel included.”

“We absolutely love the Goddard School of West Orange! Our oldest has been there since they opened and has learned a great deal. We are fully confident she will be very well prepared for kindergarten in the fall! Our second child has also been there for a year and half and is doing amazing. Not only have both of our children learned a great deal and have developed excellent social skills but they are truly loved by all of the teachers/staff at the school. It feels like a family and we couldn't be happier with our experience at Goddard West Orange!”

“We’re so happy with our son’s experience at Precious Gems Montessori . His journey has been incredibly smooth and comfortable, and it’s clear how much care and thought the teachers puts into creating a nurturing environment.
The teachers are incredibly patient with the children and truly understand how to support each child at their own pace. We’ve especially appreciated how responsive and communicative they are — it gives us peace of mind knowing that our son is in such good hands.

Special thanks to the teachers Ms.Rumana (Owner), Ms. Jessica, Ms.Maida and Ms. Sneha.”

“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.”

“I used to babysit for a family who sent their kids there and loved it! Then (a feeew years later) we went for a tour when we were looking for daycare for our 1 yr old. We recognized many of the same teachers there, and that was such a great sign!! So now our daughter has been going there for about 6 months, and it has been an absolutely wonderful experience. LOVE love love the regular updates and open communication with the teachers and administration. And our daughter comes home happy and clean and learning new songs and sign language! Really glad with the choice we made.”

“Lightbridge Academy in Woodbridge is incredible. The building and classrooms are clean, organized and completely set up to allow its students the learning environment needed. 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.”

“We enrolled our daughter in the SGA (infant and toddler classes) when she was 15 months old, and everything, starting from the school tour through all further processes, was amazing. The school management is very responsive and supportive. We are lucky to collaborate with Ms. Allie. She is a super professional teacher, supports my child a lot and creates an amazing trusted relationship between school and parents. Our daughter has learned and developed a lot of academic (during STEM, arts & crafts, circle and story time, letters and sounds) and social skills, and she enjoys going to school every day. Ms. Allie creates a magical atmosphere in class. My daughter feels happy and joyful, and I can observe her learning and development progress every day.Without any doubts, I continue to collaborate with SGA and watch my child's further success together with SGA!”
