“We’ve had such a positive experience with this daycare center since our child started at just three months old. From the very beginning, the staff has been incredibly warm, caring, and nurturing, which gave us so much peace of mind as new parents.

The environment is always clean, well-organized, and clearly maintained with great attention to detail. It’s obvious that the team takes pride in creating a safe and welcoming space for the children.

What stands out the most is how attentive and engaged the caregivers are. They truly take the time to understand each child’s needs and personality, and it shows in the way they interact with them every day.

We feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful place for our child. I would absolutely recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a loving and trustworthy environment.”

“We had a wonderful tour with Alica and were so impressed by the warmth of all the instructors we met, along with the detailed and well-thought out curriculum. We are so excited for our children to enroll here!”

“My daughter spent three wonderful years at The Learning Experience (TLE). My spouse and I couldn't be more grateful for how much my daughter grew socially, intellectually, and emotionally. From the beginning, the staff made us feel welcome and supported, creating a warm and nurturing environment that helped my timid daughter thrive. Over time, she made many close friends and truly came out of her shell, developing confidence and strong social skills that will benefit her for years to come.

A great strength of TLE is its curriculum. Its academic offering is outstanding—engaging and thoughtfully designed to support both academic and social emotional growth. I was consistently impressed by how much my daughter was learning, from early literacy and math to the arts and problem-solving. The teachers are not only knowledgeable but also caring passionate about what they do, always going the extra mile to make learning fun and meaningful. On the rare occasions that my child encountered challenges, the staff was very responsive and immediately addressed our concern as parents.

What really sets at TLE East Windsor apart is the kindness and dedication of the entire staff. They are always readily available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer support whenever needed. It's clear that they genuinely care about the development of the whole child. Knowing my daughter was in such capable and compassionate hands gave us tremendous peace of mind every day. I wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe, enriching, and loving environment for their child.”

“We feel truly fortunate to have our son enrolled at Inclusive Montessori. The dedication and care shown by the entire teaching staff have been exceptional. Special thanks to Miss Dipika and Miss Kala, who have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure our son feels supported and comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better environment for his early development.”

“We could not be happier here. Our son has learned so much since starting in the preschool class last year. He loves all the teachers. All the staff is amazing and truly cares about the kids.”

“My experience with Lightbridge Academy has been nothing short of exceptional. As parents, dropping off our daughter for the first time was nerve-wracking, but thanks to the incredible support and care provided by Miss Kate, the Director, and Miss Katie, the Assistant Director, we felt instantly at ease.From the moment our daughter joined in July 2023 as a member of the Khaki Kangaroo class, the warmth and dedication of all teachers, particularly Miss Lina, her lead teacher, were evident. Miss Lina treated our daughter with such care and attention, providing invaluable feedback and guidance to help her adjust to her new environment.As our daughter made the transition to the Yellow Ducks classroom under the guidance of Miss Danielle, Miss Lina and Miss Kate demonstrated exceptional commitment to her adjustment process. Their thoughtful recommendation to introduce our daughter to Miss Danielle daily in the week before her move significantly facilitated her transition and put our minds at ease.My daughter has truly enjoys being a part of Yellow Ducks family, under the guidance of the wonderful Miss Danielle. Seeing her return home each day with a radiant smile is a clear indication of the warmth and joy she finds in this nurturing environment.”

“Very happy with their service. My daughter has been going here for three weeks now and hasn’t missed a single day or gotten sick. I’m a very picky parent when it comes to childcare—this is her third daycare—and I finally feel at ease. The director and staff truly pay attention and treat each child as an individual with their own personality and needs. You can feel the care the moment you walk in.”

“As I reflect on 2025 and look at pictures of my growing daughter, I can’t help but smile at all of the pictures we have at our favorite place - Gymboree.

She is 2.5 years old now, but we started coming here last Winter, shortly after she began running around and needing more stimulation. Although shy and reserved at times, she has truly come out of her shell here. I can’t thank the owner and staff enough for the care they put into our kids.

We started our journey in the runners class, moved up to the explorers class, and more recently have began gentle separation in the PreK steps classroom as well. Due to the varying classes including those for mixed ages/abilities, I have been able to have many “play-dates” with friends who have little ones of all ages. We celebrated our daughter’s 2nd birthday this past year and all of the parents raved about how much fun their children had.

My daughter requests to come here daily and this has truly become our home away from home!”

“My son attended Little Scholars for two years while 3 and 4 years old and it was truly the best experience for him and our family! Thanks to the amazing teachers he grew so much academically and emotionally. He made wonderful friendships and has such fond memories from his time there. We miss the entire Little Scholars family!”

“Our child has been going to this daycare since the past 2 years. We have seen him grow so much as a person with strong vocabulary and interpersonal skills. They have a variety of activities for kids throughout the day to keep them engaged and learn. Our child even made amazing friends at TLE! However, he's had couple of rough incidents with another kid, who injured him. The staff responded to us in a kind manner and till this day make sure that our child is not in the same room as the other rough kid. The staff is very attentive and responsive to your concerns. We like TLE Lawrenceville!”

“We have had an absolutely wonderful experience at Lightbridge Academy. My child has been attending for over a year, and it has truly been one of the best decisions we’ve made. The environment is warm, nurturing, and engaging, and it’s clear that the teachers genuinely care about each child’s growth and happiness.

A special thank you to Mr. Syed, Mr. Oscar, and Ms. Stacey — they are incredibly loving, patient, and attentive. They create a safe and supportive space where children can learn, explore, and build confidence. My son has formed meaningful friendships and looks forward to going to school every day, which speaks volumes.

We especially love the thoughtful events the school organizes, such as “Paint and Sip,” “Parents Night Out,” and the “Read to Your Child” classroom event. These activities help build a strong sense of community and make families feel truly involved.

Overall, it has been an amazing experience. My 4-year-old loves every bit of it, and we are so grateful to be part of such a caring and dedicated school community. Highly recommend!”

“Would highly recommend! My son is very high energy and has a hard time listening to anyone. When he started Kiddie he has been more excited about going to preschool. No more fighting him to get out the car, he made friends and he loved the staff not only his teachers, the entire staff! It felt like one huge family and I truly appreciate each and everyone there!”

“My daughter started at Goddard three months ago. This is her first school, and we’ve had a truly wonderful experience so far. Everyone at the school is so welcoming, and they take the time each morning to greet the children. My daughter is very attached to me, but Ms. Liz has done a fantastic job helping her transition into school and making her feel welcome and included. Although it still takes a little time each morning for her to join her classmates, both my family and I believe she will continue to grow and thrive at Goddard West Windsor.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Goddard School in Skillman! From the moment our son started attending, we’ve seen tremendous growth in his confidence, social skills, and love for learning. The teachers and staff are nurturing, professional, and truly dedicated to each child’s development.

The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, blending play-based learning with strong academic foundations. Every day, our son comes home excited to share what he’s learned — from science experiments to storytime adventures. The communication from the school is also outstanding, keeping us informed and involved every step of the way.

We’re so grateful for the warm, safe, and enriching environment Goddard Skillman provides. It has been the perfect first step in our son’s educational journey!”

“We love PNS! The teachers are caring, the environment is safe and nurturing, and my kids has learned and grown so much. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a great preschool experience!”

“Our son spent three amazing years at Bright Horizons in Princeton, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sapid, miss qua, miss Carlin and his best friend Toni were exceptional so caring, patient, and truly dedicated. Diane, the director, created a warm and welcoming environment where we always felt supported.

Our son grew so much in confidence, joy, and curiosity thanks to their care. We’re incredibly grateful and will always look back on this time with love. Highly recommended!”

“Don’t know where to start here. 1000/10 stars if I could for St Mary’s Christian Academy!!! As a first time mom having to send my child at 12 months, I was terrified! Corrine, the director, was so calming and reassuring through the whole process! My daughter was not an extrovert and needed time to warm up to people. Within 2 weeks, she grew out of her shell, was smiling more than I’ve ever seen, and just became an even better version of herself! Her teachers adore her and treat all the kids as if they were their own, with compassion and love!! It’s incredibly hard to trust someone with your kids but trust me, SMCA is like a family and I am really so beyond thankful to have joined this family where I know my daughter is taken care of and safe!”

“Our son has been attending Sapling School since he was a year old. He is now 4 years old! This will be our child’s last year as he enters kindergarten in the fall. Sapling School has been so welcoming over the years. Ive always appreciated their transparency and active communication to the parents. They also offer extracurricular activities in the summer like sports camp, which I thought was nice for our son to stay active. I will personally miss Parent’s Night, that was a nice treat for us.?”

“We’ve had such a great experience with the Infant Room at ADLC. Ms. Casey is incredibly warm, attentive, and truly loves the babies—our little one settled in quickly and absolutely lights up when she sees her! The room feels calm, clean, and well-organized, and we really appreciate the regular updates and photos.

We’ve also noticed some really positive changes under the new management—communication has improved, and the overall vibe at the center feels more professional and nurturing. We’re so glad we chose ADLC for our baby’s first classroom!”

“Goddard school teachers are amazing! two daughters graduated from here. The younger one had language challenges but the teacher guided and cared her with tremendous of patience.”

“Nothing but wonderful things to say about Goddard. They are so responsive and attentive to every child and parents needs. The curriculum is well rounded and the children are ultimately prepared for Kindergarten. The teachers go above and beyond to make children feel safe and comfortable. My daughter is very anxious and has a hard time leaving mom; now she doesn’t want to ever leave school!!! Great job to Kim and the rest of admin. Juliana, Victoria and Caity are wonderful teachers that we will miss once in elementary school. Thank you always ❤️”

“This is a wonderful preschool for my Grandson. His teacher Miss Christina is very patient with him and I can tell she is passionate about her job! She cares for all the children equally. Also I love the way the school is ran and the different classes and programs they have to offer. Miss Danielle does such a great job with putting that school together as the Director. If you are looking for a place you could trust with your children, do not hesitate to bring them here. Even in the baby room, those teachers are A + and treat every single baby with so much care and compassion.”

“We love the excellent service and the personal experience we have at Primrose School.

The dedication of the staff, the nurturing environment, and the focus on both education and character development makes it truly special!”

“Both of my sons have gone to Kindercare — one is still in the school and the other has moved on to Kindergarten. My belief is that there are amazing teachers there who have done so much for both of our boys. Our son LOVES Ms. Brandy and sometimes doesn’t even seem to want to leave her. The team is responsive to emails and concerns. I know my kids are safe when they are there and there’s so much to do. Especially for the price it is a great experiences for my kids.”

“I was responsible for my friend’s keys while he was getting married at this church. I left them in the pews by mistake and we didn’t realize they were missing until he was on his honeymoon. This caused a lot of stress and put a great strain on our friendship. The kind and caring staff here helped me locate the keys, which was the first step in rebuilding our damaged relationship.”

“I highly recommend Ms. Retika! She had been an incredible teacher—truly the best. She is exceptionally kind, caring, and affectionate with all the children, creating such a warm environment.
Beyond her nurturing nature, she is a fantastic educator; my child made wonderful progress in recognizing letters and words under her guidance. Ms. Retika also emphasizes discipline and manners while ensuring she pays individual attention to each child's specific needs. She engages the children in large range of activities that keep the children’s brains stimulated while improving their skills and ensuring they are having a lot of fun!
She maintains a great relationship with parents too, providing honest and genuine feedback. We couldn't have asked for a better teacher!”
