“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review for Bright Star Academy

Bright Star Academy has been a wonderful experience for our family! My son learned so much during his time there — not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. The teachers are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to the children. I was so impressed with the program that I’ve now enrolled my youngest daughter too!

The staff communicates well with parents, keeps us informed, and always makes safety a top priority. It’s such a comforting feeling to know my kids are in a nurturing and secure environment. I’m beyond grateful for everything Bright Star has done for my children. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for a quality preschool!”

“I can only say that this daycare has been the best decision for the care of my child. The teachers Ms.Michelle and Ms.Suleyka, plus the directors are exceptional. The teachers are always attentive, the space is very clean and they have a spectacular heart. They always keep me up to date with what my son is doing, what he ate, the projects, the activities. To say that when I look for him he starts to cry because he wants to stay hahaha and they have seen times that I look for him later. The best daycare. Keep up the good work girls.”

“The management team at Kindercare is absolutely the best! Ms Danielle, Ms Bianca, Ms Kimmy and Ms Barbara strive in providing a safe and happy environment for our children.”

“We're incredibly grateful for the exceptional care and educational experience our daughter receives at TLE in Franklin Lakes. The staff not only provides a warm and nurturing environment but also implements a fantastic curriculum. Our daughter is 4 years old and has thrived in the program, and we're amazed by her progress in numbers, addition, reading, and writing. Thank you for fostering her love for learning and for providing such a supportive environment!”

“We moved to NJ temporary for 3 months, we had to find a daycare for my 4 year old son and 2 years old daughter, the process was easy and fast. This is a Gem, the sweetest personal you will ever find, they really care about kids and family.Pros: they are open all the time, daily pictures, different activities, family oriented, kids enjoyed it, they are super clean, they really care about the kids, all the food are included (extra fee)Cons: We moved out and we can’t find anything like this place”

“Our son has been at Prodigy since February and has made huge strides in his speech and social skills. His teachers have been great with honest feedback for his continuing improvement as well. From the curriculum to the cheerful greetings at the door when we walk in, Prodigy has been fantastic!”

“A Second Home for Our kids
Mickey Academy has been an absolute blessing for our family! From the moment we walked in, we felt the warmth, professionalism, and genuine care from the entire team. Ms. Jackie, Ms. Isamar, Ms. Olga, and Ms. Gaby go above and beyond every single day to create a loving, safe, and fun environment for the kids.

Our kids has grown so much—socially, emotionally, and academically—since starting here. Each day is filled with engaging activities, learning moments, and lots of smiles. What we appreciate most is how much attention and love the staff gives to every child, treating them like their own.

Communication is fantastic, and we always feel included in our kids day through updates and photos. As parents, there’s no better feeling than leaving your kids in hands you truly trust.

Thank you, Mickey Academy, for being such a wonderful part of our kids early years. We are so lucky to have you!

With love,
Ivan & Ivette”

“We are so happy with the care our son Angad receives in the Khaki Kangaroo classroom. Ms. Ximena and Ms. Daniela are amazing—caring, patient, and attentive. Angad comes home happy and excited about what he learns each day, and we can see how much he’s growing under their guidance. We’re so grateful for the love and support they give him every single day!”

“After researching and visiting many daycares in Wayne , I found Primrose to be the standout option. From the moment I scheduled a tour, I had the pleasure of meeting April, who was absolutely delightful and professional in every aspect of her role. The experience from start to finish was impressive. Unfortunately, my toddler fell ill and couldn’t continue attending. However, the response to this situation truly set Primrose apart. The owner personally reached out to express her care and took every step to address our concerns, which was deeply appreciated. Nicole, too, was very sweet and handled our situation with utmost professionalism. This level of care and attention has made me seriously reconsider Primrose for my little one in the future. Their compassionate and professional approach has left a lasting impression”

“Our oldest daughter is now just wrapping up her time in pre k4 at Appletree Preschool and I have to say it's been such a positive experience for her. She's been attending since Jan 2022 and she's loved every minute of it. From the teaching curriculum to the different activities throughout the day its been a fun journey. All of the teachers and staff have been so kind and amazing and its been so great seeing her always coming home with a smile on her face because the day at Appletree was so enjoyable. While I'm sure it's not easy and it will be a big change, I think Appletree definitely prepares kids well for the next journey into Kindergarten. We're looking forward to having our youngest daughter enroll in Appletree in a couple of years.”

“Both my kids enrolled here and they went to super talkative from non verbs It is so great to trust Goddard family I know that my kids there are safe and teachers will do their best for them in all aspects”

“This daycare is clean and provides a positive space for our child. I've been most impressed with the preschool curriculum. My daughter is reading beyond sight words because her teacher's have given her the foundational steps to sound out words. Their patience and work with my daughter has given her confidence with reading I couldn't imagine. She is well prepared for kindergarten and I couldn't be happier.”

“Little Tykes Preschool is a great school with excellent teachers who create a great learning atmosphere for my son. He's learned so much since he's started attending.”

“I am currently an employee here & I promise you "Happy Happens Here" I love this job & I'm glad that other people see that for me, everywhere I go people are like I love that you love your job you look like you have so much fun I'm happy for you & that makes me happy Thank you for making me a part of a wonderful team & a wonderful place ‼️ #TLEWaldwick #MsQ #ThankYouDenielle”

“Friends School is a truly special place that fosters a deep sense of community while nurturing young minds. The teachers are all exceptional and care for the students in a way far exceeds a traditional standard. Both our children have attended the program and we have seen tremendous growth and emotional development during their time at the school. Ms Amanda leads from the front having recruited, and importantly retained, a wonderful faculty who embrace play based learning in a natural environment. What stands out most to me is the creativity that this setting inspired in our children, you can see their minds expanding as they begin to develop a life long love of learning. The families you find at Friends care deeply about one another and the community leading to warm personal friendships outside of the school as well.”

“I have been working at the school for 3 months and only have great things to say about the owners (especially Ms. Ekta) and staff. They are very appreciative and are great to work for and it has been an absolute pleasure working there. Communication is excellent towards staff and families.”

“We love Lightbridge Academy!! My daughter will be three and my son is one and we've been g attending Lightbridge since my daughter has been born. The staff is incredible and so caring for my children. I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else!!! Highly recommend this daycare”

“We first brought our son to TLE at 3yo. We were advised by our previous daycare to follow up with early intervention with potential behavioral challenges. Well, he cleared Early Intervention with flying colors and turns out he just wasn’t being challenged enough cognitively, intellectually, and structurally. Within 2 weeks we saw our son adjust and improve his tantrums and he flourished having exceeded our expectations. The initial staff he entered with was a power house, very open to LGBT families and welcoming, daily we were greeted with happy faces. There was a period of time administration was experiencing a rough patch. I would agree it is difficult to find committed personnel in today’s world, but I did not see a lapse in my son’s care. The current administration is working hard at maintaining the same quality as the previous group. They are approachable and take care of your concerns immediately. It is nice to see TLE working hard to bring the bright vibes back to the daily experience. We have a little one on the way and will likely use them when he is ready for day care too. I’ve met some great parents too that will become forever friends for our kiddos!”

“My daughter been here since she’s been 1 years old and I can honestly say I love it here. It’s so much more than a preschool. The staff are amazing, kind and the sweetest in the world. They all care for the kids as if they were their own while teaching them different skills everyday. They have field trips, different events every holiday, birthday, everything… They’re literally the best of the best ! Definitely recommend !!!”

“Great school, communication from the school is excellent, exceeds expectations, the attention given to each child from what I can tell, via the daily and weekly reports and the projects that come home, are specific and detailed enough one could think there was only one kid in the class. Our son smiles when we drop him off and when we pick him up. And he's learning so much there, from his teachers and his peers.”

“The staff and teachers at TLE in River Vale are so warm and loving. My daughter is always happy to be there! It’s wonderful to have constant updates and pictures of your child having a great time via their app. They really go above and beyond to give a great experience to all of the kids and parents!”

“Our daughter loves lightbridge. She is so comfortable with all the staff. My son is also in young infants there and we can’t say enough good things. We love Ms Laura and Ms Michelle”

“Being our first child, my wife and I were very anxious to send our new baby to daycare. We looked at all the centers in the area and could not be happier with our decision to join WCL Kindercare. From day one the director Renee has been warm and welcoming, professional, attentive, and quick to make sure our family’s needs are met. My child’s teachers are terrific. They took time to get to know our family and care for our son as if he’s their own. We get lots of updates and pictures throughout the day too. The director Renee has lots of fun family events that you can bring your other children to, all fun and all included in enrollment. Can’t recommend enough.”

“I would like to say that Tiniest Footprints is a great Early Learning & Childcare Center. We were so lucky to have found this center and enrolled one of our daughters. She attended Pre-K3 & Pre-K4. We were so pleased how prepared our daughter was once she started Kindergarten. We currently have our 1 year old attending the center and it once again we are very satisfied with the staff and how attentive they are. We recommend Tiniest Footprints 1000%.”

“I really appreciate all of the teachers and all of their hard work and dedication. My daughter has made so much improvement from day 1 and I am extremely impressed. I also really appreciate Marisa and Crystal, the directors, for making this process seamless. They keep us up to date and answer any and all questions. They continue to make me feel very happy with my decision to put my daughter in Light Bridge Academy.”

“THE BEST!Erika and the teachers do an amazing job at making you feel like you’re home. My daughter has been there for a little over a year now and it has been such an incredible experience. We heard about LTNS through friends in town who also raved about it. Everyone is warm and welcoming, the classrooms and halls are bright, and the app is always updated! I love receiving pictures and notifications all day long about what is going on. I feel like my daughter has learned so much in such a short amount of time. I know that Miss. Erika and all of her teachers love my baby as much as I do. Knowing your child is safe, cared for, and happy is all that matters. We are so grateful to have them!”

“We love this daycare so much! My 3 year old is always so happy to RUN through the doors everyday. My 7 month old just started here last month! The teachers and staff are absolutely amazing, compassionate, and caring people - that truly care about every individual child. The relatively large indoor gym is key for those rainy days or any afternoon when the kids just need to play and run around with their friends. They bring optional extracurricular activities into the center such as super soccer stars, karate, and dance (for an extra cost), which is awesome to have available! I also enjoy the daily updates and pictures on what my kids are up to! We couldn’t be happier sending our kids to this school!”

“If I could add a sixth star I would. We were one of the early families enrolled and 8 years later we still talk about Miss Brittany, and so many of the staff. My 3 month old wouldn’t take a bottle but, because of their hearts, Ms Brittany would walk her up and down the halls to get her to eat. The teachers went out of their way to make my children feel welcome, loved and part of a family. Academically, my son thrives and excelled in K because of the exposure and practice in the program through crafts and FUN. You will not be disappointed with your choice.”
