Schools in Matawan, NJ

“My daughter has been with TLE for about 3 years. The friends she’s made, the knowledge she’s received, and the fun she’s had is priceless.
Never felt unsafe with any of the staff. They’ve been amazing.”

“My daughter started going to this school when she was 12 months old and she’s been thriving. She moved up from the infant room to the Lobster room around 15-16 months, and I could see that she loved every bit of it. They do a lot of arts and crafts and other amazing activities such as music time, dance time, and even science experiments. She comes home everyday with a new word or song or a dance move. My daughter particularly loves the lead teacher, Ms. Barbara, and we’re so grateful for all the care and love she has received from her. Ms. Ro does an amazing job in managing the whole school. We are moving out of town and will be transferring our toddler to a different Goddard school, but we will miss this school A LOT!”

“We love having our daughter at Lightbridge! We recently moved and already had a great experience with a previous location which helped when we saw another was available to us. Everyone in the building is friendly and always greets us and our daughter. The front office is always helpful and Ms. Kayla always assists us with any questions we have about anything going on within the building or transitioning to Matawan school district. Our daughter is typically shy around new people but she gradually felt safer and more comfortable with not just her teachers but other teachers in the building who provide coverage when needed. She often speaks about her teachers when we get home and she tells me about her day with them and her friends. The lead teacher Ms. Shareefa is very animated, engaged, and patient with the kids each day. She plans activities that are fun and has the children fully invested in pretend play scenarios that sometimes have my daughter asking for five more minutes when I come in to pick her up. As much as I love the days she rushes to hug me because she missed me, I love seeing her so consumed in her learning that she wants to stay and finish. A big thank you to our daughter’s teachers Ms. Shareefa, Ms. Jasmine, and Ms. Ali. We’d also like to recognize and thank Ms. Tammy who starts the day with our daughter early in the morning most days. Thank you to all staff who play a part in our daughter’s safety and learning!”
