“Genius kids is an amazing daycare and has everything a parents or child needs. The staff is great, teachers are very nurturing, caring and management is always responsive and works closely together to ensure that all needs are met. My child has been attending for 4 years now and doesn’t want to leave. Genius kids is like our second home, they truly become like family. The daycare has cameras in all rooms and playgrounds accessible to parents. The food is homemade and delicious. The lessons are taught in English but there are also Russian and Hebrew classes available in the program. So many extra curriculum activities are offered as well such as sports and dancing. I highly recommend Genius kids and will continue to recommend even after my kids graduate.”

“I am incredibly grateful to have discovered TLE for my son. We had previously tried other schools that did not fully understand his speech and general care requirements. The staff at TLE is remarkably patient, skilled, attentive, and kind. Their level of care and attention is truly exceptional. TLE was the perfect match for us!”

“Highly recommend Primrose Old Bridge for any parents looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their little ones. My nephew has been attending for several months now, and the care and attention he receives from the staff are exceptional. The facility is clean, and the activities provided are both educational and engaging. It's evident that the staff truly care about the children's well-being and development. I have peace of mind knowing that my nephew is in such good hands while he's there. Keep up the fantastic work!”

“We couldn't be happier with our experience at TLE. As working parents, finding a safe and nurturing environment for our kid was our top priority. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted by warm and friendly staff members. Their loving and caring nature is evident in everything they do. The facilities are clean, organized, and well-equipped with age-appropriate toys and learning materials. We are also impressed with the daily activities and structured routines provided. They keep us informed about our child's progress, daily routines, and any upcoming events. It's comforting to know that we are always in the loop and can reach out whenever we have inquiries or concerns.We wholeheartedly recommend TLE to any parents looking for a nurturing and stimulating environment for their children.

“This school is the best! My daughter has excelled in her learning because of all the teachers here. They really care about the kids here! It's a clean environment and the kids enjoy being there! I would highly recommend to all who are looking for a daycare!”

“My son Ean started at Start Kids Academy when he was just 15 months old, and he had such a wonderful experience. He learned so much and made great friends, many of whom still ask for him now that he's in pre-K. The teachers are absolutely fantastic, and the care they provide is beyond anything I could have hoped for. Now, my second child is also attending Start Kids Academy, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with the care of my little ones. I highly recommend this place! As Jaime said, 'we are family now.' I am truly grateful for all the love and attention they show to my children every day.”

“We transferred our daughter into Lightbridge about two months ago. Miss Kierra, Miss Jill, and Miss Nevaeh have made it seamless. She is always happy going and tells me how she had such a good day (which we never heard before). The teachers are engaged and truly seem to care about the kids. Such a great experience and happy we transitioned over!”

“We had a wonderful experience at peace rose for prek3, prek4 and two summers. Ms. Carmen and all of her staff are nurturing, caring, and supportive. We would recommend to anyone for a well rounded and caring environment.”

“My son has been going to Kindercare at Old Bridge since he was an infant. Loved the teachers here (Miss Patty & Amanda), they are so loving and attentive. They always send you pictures, detailed notes on how his day was and you can see in the pictures that my son is having so much fun. Also, the staff is great with paperworks (thank you Miss Allison). I would recommend this place if you are looking for a new center.”

“My daughter has been going to Primrose in East Brunswick since July of 2020. The establishment is amazing. The director is amazing; Priom and her team is nothing but great and amazing educators. The education is by far one of the greatest preparing the next generation. The school is well organized, extremely clean, and you can leave your child with the care of Primrose knowing they are safe. Your children care is the first priority when it comes to Primrose. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a daycare/learning center.”

“We love this place! Ms Jen is the most wonderful teacher I ever met! My son loves her so much. I am so thankful for an amazing staff. Everybody are so nice, respectful, and approachable. The director, Ms Shanon is amazing! She is always so pleasant to talk to. My son learned a lot during the last 10 months. I highly recommend this place to any parent!We are still with COA and I don’t know how we will live without their staff! We are planning to use their amazing help when my son will be in kindergarten. I can’t believe how much work they all put into my child’s growth. Mrs Chrissy is a wonderful person who simply loves my son. He always goes to school with the smile on because she is there! We love every single teacher who works there. I want to say thank you to Mrs Chrissy, Susan and Rosita (who makes sure the children get a healthy and balanced meal every day). The director is so sweet, kind, understanding, and funny! We love you Mrs Shanon! Mrs Margaret is so helpful with all the paperwork❤️. My son is definitely ready for kindergarten thanks to all the teachers who put their hearts into his development. Thank you so much for everything! You are our family ❤️”

“My son doesn't want to leave some days. The teachers are kind and great him well. They send many photos and videos of my son daily. Staff are friendly. The play ground is open and clean. Very spacious.”

“Highly recommend! Staff are amazing. They make me feel comfortable and safe. My daughter loves all her teachers ! They have pushed her out of her comfort zone and form longer sentences . Couldn’t be more happier and blessed taking her here.”

“The Goddard School of Spotswood is the best! Each and every teacher and staff member are extremely caring, nurturing, and friendly. We have been sending our daughter here since she was 3 months old and now our son as well and they made the transition easy knowing they were in the best care. They are extremely accommodating to each child's individual needs and always quick to respond and answer questions. The curriculum and various activities keep them busy and they have been learning so much. Our children have the biggest smiles on their faces everyday and we feel at ease knowing they are in a safe, fun, and loving environment. Highly recommend this wonderful school!”

“We are so lucky to have found Turtle Creek for our son!

The teachers are absolutely fantastic. They are not only highly experienced, but also incredibly kind and patient. It’s evident that they are dedicated to creating an educational experience that is both fun and academically stimulating. The instruction is age-appropriate, which helps build a strong foundation for future learning while keeping things enjoyable.

Another huge plus is the reliable before- and aftercare. It's reassuring to know that our child is in good hands during the extended hours, and the care provided is just as thoughtful and engaging as the classroom time.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to enroll here, and we would highly recommend this preschool to any parent looking for a place where their child can thrive academically and socially.”

“Unbelievably dedicated and genuine teachers. Extremely admirable team work of real professionals with over 10 years of experience. Their gentle touch and dedication made every day for my daughter a wonderful time of learning with joy, making friends and creating most positive memories. Now she loves school! We went through 3 preschool prior with devastating tears every morning, when finally one of the workers felt bad seeing our struggles and recommended Tots and Blocks, because her granddaughter is happily attends it. Our whole family is forever grateful! Thank you for an incredible difference in my baby’s life!”

“Everyone is just so wonderful! This school goes above and beyond. All the staff here are very sweet and caring. My daughter just lives coming here everyday ! Thank you all keep up the great work”

“Our kids have been going to Apple Hill Academy for the last 3 years and we love the school. My oldest graduated pre K and and is now thriving in kindergarten thanks to all the knowledge she gained at Apple Hill! I toured quite a few schools in the area before choosing and I was very impressed how quick they were to respond and answer all of my questions, Helene was polite, welcoming, and scheduled our tour right away. Our daughter loved it from the first day and has made many friends there. I like the fact that the kids do a combination of crafts, scholastic activities and outside play. They also learn word in spanish, sign language and learn about well being and calming techniques. They are exposed to different sports, cultures, learn about different holidays, foods/recipes and career choices. We will continue to take our kids here and highly recommend to family and friends!”

“Great school !
Many of the teachers have been working there for years. My older kids did great there and my youngest is there now for “the summer camp””

“We absolutely love this daycare! My daughter looks forward to going every morning. The teachers are incredibly caring and loving, and they truly treat her like their own. They offer delicious Russian food and snacks, and the kids spend a lot of time playing and learning both indoors and outdoors.

One thing that was very important to me is their strict sick policy—they don’t allow sick kids to attend, which means fewer illnesses spread. In her old daycare, my daughter was sick every two weeks, but since switching, she’s only been sick once in the entire year!

I couldn’t be happier with our decision to switch daycares. Thank you to the amazing teachers for all that you do!❤️??”

“Choosing a day care for our children was one of the most difficult decisions we as parents had to make. Let’s just say the choice was very clear after touring a few local daycare centers and speaking with various individuals. Goddard Freehold has made us feel like family from day one. Now with two little ones there, the peace of mind knowing they are safe and learning on a daily basis is well worth it to me and my family. I would give Mr. John, Ms. Suzzane, Ms. Andrea and their entire staff 10 stars if I was able to.”

“I started my 18month old son at a completely different school but had the worst experience on his first day which led to us withdrawing him. After doing some additional research and touring the Country Day School of Colts Neck, we decided to enroll him here. We are extremely happy with our decision. The communication has been great since day one. I feel very comfortable leaving my child in their hands. I also appreciate the staff making it a point to know my child’s name right from the start. It’s been a great experience thus far and I look forward to my son continuing.”

“We love Champions! My son has attended their aftercare program at MarEl since we moved here in 2020.Ms. Marie and Ms. Lisa are the heart of this program; they are compassionate, creative, and dedicated to the overall well-being of the children. They engage the children in interactive activites, homework assistance, and recreational/physical activities too. I love that he also gets to socialize with his friends and burn off some of that boundless energy every day.As a parent, Champions is invaluable -not just because of their affordability, but because it has also saved my sanity! I know he’s safe and happy, and I love that his homework is done by the time I pick him up. Sometimes there is just no time and energy for me at the end of the day so I appreciate having one less (but important) thing to worry about!Thank you Ms. Marie, Ms. Lisa, and your team.”

“All Thanks go to Monika and her staff! We really can’t thank them enough for all the hard work. Overall our 2 little ones are very happy at this place, and we noticed the significant impact on both of them in all their speaking, listening, behaving, communication, and social skills ever since they joined Childtime of Spotswood.”

“My son has been at Kiddie Academy for over 3 years . He has learned so much throughout his time here and has had so many wonderful teachers. Each day he is beyond excited heading into school. I know each day he is always in good hands .”

“I found out about Kiddie Academy of Freehold from a friend back in 2021. I was a new mom and new to NJ so I just went with it even though it’s a 25 min drive from our home. The reason I started my daughter at a daycare is because she was a “Covid baby” and I wanted her to start socializing. But truly, I feel we got so much more out of this. After she adjusted, I really saw her developing much faster. Going over letters, shapes, numbers and colors every day along with a little art project she made to take home and hang on our wall. They use Tadpoles app to keep track of diaper changes and meals. Breakfast, lunch and snacks are also included in the tuition (a big plus in my book since I didn’t have to worry about cooking the night before, saving me time). And of course, the pictures they take of them are so adorable. KA is also the only place I know that has a camera that the parent can access during the day, so you can see what they’re up to for piece of mind. Some other things I really will miss are the events they have. The Halloween parade, the pumpkin painting contest, the Valentine’s Day dance, Mother’s day and Father’s day events, and the end of the year performance from almost all the grades is just so special. For the summer they make sure the kids are busy with fun activities and invite outside vendors to entertain the kids. You can also sign them up for dance or soccer lessons. One sweet touch they do is have a pianist come by to play songs for them. I also have to mention that even though there have been some staff changes through our time there, everyone has been kind and as helpful as they can. Miss Kristi and Miss Jessica always addressed my concerns. Miss Jeanette and Miss Kelly were so encouraging and kind to my oldest, and she had learned so much! And Miss Kikki was so patient with my youngest who is a sensitive girl and took her time to open up. There was no doubt Miss Kikki made a strong connection with her causing her vocabulary to expand quickly along with the confidence to express herself. One of the cutest surprises was seeing her come home with a new hairstyle almost every time. I felt like I was picking her up from the salon! During our time at KA I had been pregnant, working, and made the decision to go back to school myself. I have so much gratitude towards this place as I went through this stage of my life. But I also feel they deserve such recognition because so many places have taken away such things but this place has somehow kept it all.”

“I love how much my daughter is learning at Lightbridge. They have a well developed program with a curriculum that is geared toward student learning and growth. The teachers are sweet and are so kind to the children. I also love the option of having live feed to check on my little one. It’s especially helpful for first time daycare parents. It was a rough transition at first but now my daughter loves going to daycare.”

“Absolutely one of the best daycares in Monmouth County. The entire staff is always so welcoming and helpful, they truly enjoy where they work and it shows ❤️”
