Schools near Englewood Cliffs, NJ

“For a daycare, both the people running it and the facilities are important. This place has the best dedicated building that's a school and not just some office space or a converted house. It also has a nice playground that they just put soft flooring in. The owner Ms. Lisa and the principal Ms. Jackie are really on top of things and the class teachers are all great. Your child will switch classes as he/she gets older and will meet different teachers. Currently we're with Ms. Annika and she's amazing. Our previous teachers were also amazing. Our daughter really likes going there although it took her a while to get used to it. Every time she falls or trips like toddlers do all the time, they take an incident report and show it to us. They really look after your kids and value them. They're in very good hands at TLE Englewood Cliffs.

Suggestion for improvements: Please upload higher quality photos, and video in the app so we can see our little ones clearer and in motion. We'll even pay extra for it!”

“Our family has had a very positive experience with The Goddard School. My son attended Goddard when he was younger, and Ms. Kate was his teacher at that time. Years later, she still remembers him and greets him with a big hug whenever he comes with me to pick up his little sister. It says so much about the genuine care and love she has for her students.

My daughter is now in Ms. Kate and Ms. Toni’s classroom, and we are very grateful for both of them. They are experienced, caring, loving teachers who keep the classroom well organized and create a warm, structured, and nurturing environment for the children.

We have seen our daughter grow academically as well as socially and emotionally. She is becoming more confident, more independent, and more engaged in learning. We also feel that Goddard’s curriculum gave our son a solid foundation for his academic development, and we are glad our daughter is having the same wonderful early childhood experience.”

“The Turner School was an amazing experience from start to finish.

I am truly grateful for Gary, the instructor who runs the practical simulator training portion of the schooling. He is incredibly knowledgeable and structured in his lessons, making the material simple to follow and easy to understand. He truly wants all of his students to be the best future engineers. I am really proud to be able to say I was one of his many past students who were a “one and done”.

This is why, moving forward, I will always recommend individuals to check out the Turner School.”

“We were fortunate to welcome Lorraine from New York City Nutrition to two of our branch offices for corporate wellness events. Through her engaging presentations, Lorraine highlighted the importance of balance, healthy eating, mindfulness, and other practical strategies for fostering harmony between the mind and body. Her insights were both informative and inspiring, and our employees thoroughly enjoyed the sessions.

It was a pleasure to have Lorraine in our offices as we kicked off these wellness initiatives for our team. We truly appreciate her expertise and the positive impact she made on our staff!”

“Enrolling our son at TLE is the absolute BEST decision we could’ve ever made!!! He is in the infant classroom and his teachers take such great care of him! They not only make sure he stays on individualized feeding/napping schedules, but they also are so engaging with him! They participate in music, art and lots of reading. He is so safe and loved at TLE, and we feel so lucky to have found such a great ‘home away from home’ for him.”

“My kid loved going to Emma every day. Everyone there is so reliable, warm, and professional, and they truly care for the kids with love. We’re so sad he won’t be able to go to Emma anymore. We’ll miss everyone there so much! If anyone I know is looking for a daycare, I would definitely recommend Emma!”

“All About Me has been the best thing that has happened to our family. We have gone through multiple nightmares with different daycares in the area. Our biggest mistake was not coming to AAM sooner. The staff really show that they care for our son and are invested in his progress. They also work and collaborate with his therapists that come to the center, which is HUGE! Ever since he started here he began talking in full sentences within a month. More progress has been made in the 5 months he’s been here versus the previous place he was for nearly 2 years! That showed us that this is the right place for him. Thank you to all of the staff for really taking a lot of our anxiety/stress away from us and for caring so much for our boy!”

“We love Appletree! We are so thankful of Ms Sonja, Ms Courtney, and all the lovely teachers including Ms Sophia, Ms Aster and Ms Alanna! All the administration, teachers and staff LOVE on the kiddos so much and you can tell. Our kiddo looks forward to going to “school” everyday, to play with friends, interact with teachers, and learn new things everyday. He has truly blossomed academically, socially, in his independence, and with his voice. I especially appreciate their attention to each child according to their personality and they truly nurture each child. The staff is super available and reachable for any request or concern, big and small. They never made me feel like my nuanced and anxious questions were out of the ordinary. We even referred a friend and their toddler loves it here also! If you’re in this River Edge area, do not pass on the opportunity to have your child grow at Appletree.”

We’re so grateful for the love and support they give him every single day!”

“We’ve had an amazing experience at this daycare. The nursery teacher, Ms. Sue is truly outstanding! She is nurturing, caring, and incredibly attentive. Our son absolutely loves her, and it’s clear she makes a positive impact on him every day! When he transitioned to the toddler room, the process was seamless, and any minor concerns we had were addressed immediately. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and attention he receives here! We’re also incredibly grateful for the daycare director Ms. Lori, who is just as amazing. Their dedication and responsiveness truly set this daycare apart.”

“Both my kids attend Goddard and have been there since they were both 5 months old. It has been such a joy watching them grow up there. They have learned so much and it's truly amazing to see. We have had such great experiences with all the teachers that we have had. The teachers are so caring, compassionate and always there to help. My kids walk in with a smile and leave with one. Knowing they are in great hands while my husband and I are work, makes our day easier. The pictures and videos help a lot too! The Goddard School of Norwood will always hold a special place in our families hearts and we are forever grateful!”

“I can't say enough great things about the learning experience in Paramus, NJ! The staff is incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely cares for the 11 month daughter.

There staff goes above and beyond many times and I feel at ease knowing she's in such good hands. They provide a nurturing environment, engaging activities, and regular updates (photos throughout the day), which gives me so much peace of mind.

Ms. Nina and Ms. Patty are absolutely exceptional teachers who consistently go above and beyond for both their students and parents. Their kindness, patience, dedication, and communication make such a difference, and it’s clear how much they truly care about every child’s growth and happiness.

The curriculum is fantastic and there are plenty of additional enrichment opportunities that go above and beyond. After a difficult transition to a new state, Les Enfants handled my child’s initial separation anxiety with expertise and kept me feeling reassured and supported. Now my child asks to go to school on weekends! Being able to drop my child off for the day with zero concerns, knowing they are in great hands, is invaluable. We are looking forward to summer camp and getting our youngest enrolled, as well!”

“Saint pertolemy is one of the churches that you must if ever you have a chance to be in Manhattan, it is a muster. 10. That particular afternoon I did go for piano recital of which was announced earlier in the day at the church but because of online that's how I got that bit of information. Worshiping at St. Marx is wonderful. Actually, I should have attended the 5:00 worship that he had that afternoon, which wonderful!. St. Parts is a fixture in Manhattan as well. It's a historical church. It's an Episcopal Church also to the welcomes everyone”
