Schools near Haddon Heights, NJ

“We've had both of our children at this school for several years now and have been really happy with the experience. They have always been accommodating and helpful. Our kids love the teachers and have a lot of fun in class. They were even kind enough to make special accommodations once when we had a family emergency. We have friends who have children at this school and they feel the same way. Highly recommended!

FYI: Although it seems like a crazy coincidence, especially with an unusual last name, I have no relation to the person who left a review below me with the same last name haha. Just happened to both post around the same time.”

“We are grateful to the team for taking care of our toddler, who has been attending for the past several months. Clean facility, great communication, and quality environment for any child. Ms. Stacey has been long-time teacher of our daughter, and they share a lovely bond. Great staff at the front desk as well, always smiling and positive which helps with a great start every morning, for both baby and us parents! Thank you!”

“We LOVE TLE for taking great care of my two little ones. The warmth and care of your staff and management has always been the main reason why we continue to go to TLE. They are learning so much, making great friends, and thriving. We had moved from a previous daycare, and we are so glad we did. Special thanks to all the great teachers for the pictures, curriculum, activities and we LOVE Bubbles when he comes to visit!!!”

“Ms. Jess has been absolutely wonderful since day one. She creates such a warm and caring environment, and it truly shows in how comfortable Arjun feels with her. Mornings used to be difficult because he would cry at drop-off, but Ms. Jess always takes the time to gently pick him up and comfort him, which means so much to me as a parent. Her patience, kindness, and genuine care make a huge difference.”

“My son has been attending TLE Riverton for one year and my baby girl for 5 months (she is in the baby room) Im thankful for the love and attention they receive here. All teachers are very polite and welcoming. We love Ms. Ashley for toddler 1 room and Ms. Rossy (baby room). Both teachers have shown genuine love and care for my babies. Words can’t describe how grateful I am with them. Dakota and Alyssa are extremely supportive and kind. Thank you for all you do for my babies”

“My daughter has been with The Learning Experience for nearly a year and has truly thrived from the very beginning. After transitioning from Children of America in Clementon, we were searching for a more positive and supportive environment — and we found exactly that and so much more at TLE. From day one, she has loved going to school, and that joy has been so comforting as a parent.

The Learning Experience offers an exceptional curriculum and maintains the highest standards of cleanliness and care. While we’re saddened to leave due to financial reasons, we are incredibly grateful for the growth, joy, and structure TLE has provided our daughter. We would wholeheartedly recommend this center to any family looking for a nurturing and enriching environment.

Thank you for everything, TLE!”

“I can’t say enough about MOTHERGOOSE Blackwood. My son is now 18 months and has been learning so much since he started about 5 months ago. The staff are more than friendly, helpful, and caring. I had my reservations about ever taking my children to day care but MOTHERGOOSE and cleared all my fears! Thank you to everyone !”

“I am so happy we came across this school for both of my step sons. Ms. Patti is an amazing teacher in the twos room. My 2 yr old step son talks about her all the time. She does so much with him and hes learned so much and hes only been there a few weeks. My 4 yr old step son has Ms. Erika and she is also amazing in the preschool classroom. He has also learned so much and talks about how much he loves his school every day. Thank you all for such a great experience and for loving our boys so much❤️”

“My son has been with TLE Marlton since he was 2 years old. The teachers are very welcoming and loving. He enjoyed and learned a lot throughout his time at TLE. He loved all his teachers moving from toddlers to preppers to preschool.”

“My daughter had a wonderful experience visiting the Anne Frank Museum in NYC. It was a great opportunity for her and her friends to go together for learning and fun! Carl as the JCC Teen Engagement Director is doing an amazing job creating such fabulous programming for teens!”

“As first-time parents, choosing a daycare felt like one of the biggest decisions we’ve ever made, and enrolling our son at Primrose Center City was the best choice we could have made.

He started in the infants classroom, and from day one the teachers, administrators, and even the owner (who is incredibly hands-on, present almost every day, and somehow knows every child and parent by name!) made the transition completely seamless. As new parents, that level of care and attention meant everything to us. We truly never worry during the day because we know he is safe, supported, and so loved.

As a dual-career household, having that trust also gives us the mental space to stay focused at work during the day, which is invaluable. The school’s hours are incredibly helpful for working parents, and the fact that they provide meals and snacks removes so much of the daily mental and physical load of planning and prepping food. They even offer quarterly Parents’ Night Out events, which gives my husband and me a built-in date night (even if that sometimes just means takeout and catching up on chores at home!).

Now that he’s moved into the young toddler classroom, we’ve been just as impressed. The transition was thoughtfully handled over time. They gradually introduced him to his new teachers, classroom, and schedule, which made the change feel easy and natural for him (and for us!). It’s been amazing to see how much he’s grown there already. His independence has blossomed, and his communication skills (especially using sign language) have developed so much thanks to the intentional support from his teachers.

We recommend Primrose wholeheartedly to any parent looking for a nurturing, structured, and loving environment for their child. Honestly, even if we move to the suburbs someday, we would absolutely drive in just to keep him here. And if we have another child, there’s no question that they’ll be enrolled at Primrose too.”

“The Giving Tree has been a fantastic daycare for our son, from infancy to the older toddler class. The teachers are caring and attentive, and he’s always excited to go. He’s made great friends, enjoys activities like music, gymnastics, and soccer, and has learned so many life skills. We highly recommend it!”

“COA has been a wonderful and nurturing place for my son. From learning new things to even begin potty trained. Shout out to Ms Lisa of preschool 2A , she is absolutely the best she really cares for the children and goes above and beyond to make them feel special everyday. I am glad I found COA.”

“Always a great time! Volunteers and Priest very welcoming, pleasant and friendly. Bestie and I get to feel like kids again! Parking a bit tough however look forward each year. The Mega 50-50 is a WOW factor! Enjoy and be safe, Everyone.”

“We love Kiddie Academy of Delran! All the staff is nice and well prepared , it feels like home! As parents we can work in peace knowing our kids are safe and having fun! Our daughter loves Summer Camp there!”

“This is an amazing daycare my daughters are attending for the summer and i love that my kids go here they are excited to go each day super friendly teachers and a huge classrooms lots for kids to do and learn !”

“We absolutely love the TLE in Sewell. The two center directors and all staff are simply AMAZING. We have loved our experience here and can’t imagine our child anywhere else. The amount he’s grown in his almost six months being there is tremendous. Within his first month there, he started crawling, waving and blowing kisses. Then a couple weeks after he started walking. You cannot compare the teachers to anywhere else - we love all of them, especially Ms. Aggie, she has a special place in our heart! Ms. Danielle, Ms. Aggie, and Ms. Natalie were so enthusiastic and made him feel so welcomed from the start. Ms. Alyssa, Ms. Christina, Ms. Becca and Ms. Brielle have also been so wonderful with our son as well. We recently moved up a room and his new teachers are just as great - we love their patience as he transitions and their guidance. I love that Ms. Haley and Ms. Jess know his favorite toy and they truly all go out of their way to make sure your child is comfortable, safe, and meeting all developmental milestones. Ms. Marlene, Ms. Alianna and Ms. Jordan are also incredible teachers. Knowing your child is being cared for by these individuals puts a parent at ease. I truly couldn’t have imagined finding a better place to care for and help my son grow. They also have such a fantastic chef, Mr. Luis, who is more than willing to help try to give you recipes if your son loves the lunches. I call constantly to check in and talk to Ms. Jordan or Ms. Stephanie in the front at least 5x a week to check in and they always answer with compassion, and are so understanding of the check-ins while he transitions. I commend their patience. We also love Mr. Matt - as one of the center directors, he’s so involved with the kids and always greet you in the morning with a smile. Truly incredible place. They go out of their way for your children. I wouldn’t want to send my son anywhere else! Thank you to TLE from the bottom of our hearts. We are so grateful and blessed we have the opportunity to have TLE as our daycare and are so relieved to know our son is in amazing hands. Thank you. ??. We appreciate all the center and staff provide to us and are so thankful to have crossed paths.”

“We’ve had such an incredible experience with Over the Rainbow. From day one, the staff has made us and our children feel comfortable and supported. Their professionalism and kindness are evident in everything they do. They take the time to get to know each child individually, and it’s clear that they truly care about each child’s growth and happiness.

One of the things I appreciate and love most is the consistent communication. We always receive updates, photos, and notes about how our child’s day went, which is really reassuring.
We feel extremely lucky to have found Over the Rainbow and can confidently say that our children is thriving here. I highly recommend it to any parent seeking a loving, educational, and safe environment for their little one ??

Thank you Ms. Leslie so grateful for you and your team.”

“My daughter started a few weeks ago and she loves it!! Her teachers are ms Stephanie and Kiara and they are the best!! The director is amazing I love the way she gives the kids hugs and high fives in the morning”

“I miss going here. This place was my childhood, going there back when the old location was still opened. The atmosphere is always great for kids, especially during the summer. Unfortunately, as the years went on, it became a lot more adults, no longer being just for the kids. It went from a small and colorful establishment with a huge love of Puertorriqueno feels to a bland building that became more restrictive. From happy employees thinking of the kids first to employees just there to get small cash in their pockets. I still love this place, but I miss how it used to feel, especially now that I'm no longer a part of it. I don't get to see the old locations where I used to learn. Never lose your Puertorican joy

Kind regards, an old friend to lost memories
Thank you for teaching me to be proud of my culture ??”

“I honestly was completely nervous about having my daughter start daycare to begin with but they made it such an easy transition. Even when she has moved up in the different classes they made sure she was comfortable and loved.”

“My son has been at Goddard for the last 6 months or so and I cannot state enough how well the school has been for him. The staff and teachers are amazing. I have seen Luke grow and his personality blossom as a result of his time at Goddard. I will be sad to see his time here come to an end.”

“Our piano was on the second floor of our old apartment, i was worried that movers would give me a hard time about it. These guys were great, got it down and moved to our new home without a hitch. so glad i called.”

“NG Academy is one of the best daycare and pre-k schools in South Jersey. My child went here for over a year and changed in positive ways because of this school like developing speech and handwriting. He made friends and had a great experience overall. Ms. Shiro cares about the children and provides a fun, warm, and safe environment for kids to play, learn, grow, and explore new things. 10/10 recommend! Thank you for everything, Ms. Shiro! Much appreciated always!”

“Our favorite thing about St. John’s is the teachers and staff.
Our son started St. John’s after a negative experience at another school. His St. John’s teacher was so kind and he instantly loved school. His behavior even improved both at school and at home.
Our son was diagnosed with a serious illness while attending St. John’s. The teachers were so accommodating about anything we needed, and never made us feel like a burden. With everything we stressed about over his health, it was so reassuring to never have to worry about whether or not he was being taken care of properly at school. The teachers truly love their students. We even had gifts show up from the teachers after his diagnosis.
St. John’s is a true family atmosphere. There are so many special events and family dinners. So many opportunities to get to know your child’s teachers and the other parents. I don’t know how they do it but somehow they select the most loving, one-of-a-kind teachers.
The children go outside just about every day (twice if they attend full day), unless the weather is extreme. The teachers post pictures for the parents to see, which we absolutely loved! I think the director even knows every child by name.
We are confident our son received the perfect education and experience to prepare him for kindergarten. As a nervous first-time mom, I just can’t say enough wonderful things about our time at St. John’s.”

“We are new to the Goddard school. I can already see a huge difference in my child compared to her previous preschool. She is happy and even excited to go to school. She always says mommy I didn't cry and I had a good day. I love their curriculum and love seeing what the children are learning via pictures I receive. My child's teachers are wonderful. If there is teacher In her class that I may not have met they are always welcoming and always introduce themselves which is a huge plus for me. Everyone is always smiling and seem to really enjoy being there. The directors Julie and Erika are really awesome. Great communication within the school and for parents. I am so grateful that I was able to make this switch for my child and so far we love it there.”

“We absolutely love The Goddard School of Sicklerville. We recommend it to everyone we know who have small children. My two children started as infants and had graduated from the Pre-k class. My years at this school were amazing! The staff is so friendly, welcoming, and truly go above and beyond to form relationships with everyone. It makes me feel comfortable knowing I’m dropping my babies off each day to a caring and loving environment. Both of my kids excelled throughout their time here as well. They both were rock stars their first year in kindergarten! Goddard truly prepared them, and I couldn’t be anymore grateful! We have another little one on the way, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my baby! We will be sending her to Goddard! This truly is our home away from home?. The front office is amazing and the owner really goes above and beyond to make sure this place is running like no other!”

“Our baby currently attends children’s village, since 15 mos, and we cannot speak more highly of a program in the Philly area. Not only do they have a dietary program that is filled with nutritious, culturally diverse foods, but the teachers there are like handing your child off to a second family. My daughter LOVES her teachers, they give us daily updates, and her curriculum is always changing and age progressive. The cost and flexibility of the hours are fantastic, but the best thing of all? Knowing that you can safely and loving use your Children’s Village community to foster growth, love, and independence.”

“My son LOVES it here and asks to go to school on weekends. He’s made so many friends and he loves ALL of the teachers. You can tell the teachers truly enjoy and love the kiddos. I couldn’t imagine him anywhere else. The teachers and directors are all so kind and happily answer any of my questions or concerns. Safety is always a priority which is so important. My son loves the playground and all the fun activities! Especially during summer when they have water play, magicians, foam parties and more!”

“10/10 experience from the place, staff, setup. It was perfect, my son turned 1 and we had his party here. They say there isn’t parking but there is street parking or 1 block away a nice parking lot”
