The practice has an app and it is very easy to use for logging foods, getting resources, and contacting your nutritionist. I would highly recommend this practice for your food journey!”

Ms Neffi and Ms Rae have been excellent care takers for my son and their dedication and love for their job is so evident. Picking a daycare for your child is such an important decision and we are thrilled with our choice in picking the Goddard school!”

“Our son began at Primrose just over a year ago in the infant classroom. We have been nothing short of impressed from Day 1. Every morning when you arrive the entire team is welcoming and eager to greet on a first name basis for the whole family. The teachers are incredibly caring and attentive. They listen to developmental goals and work with students to help achieve those goals.Our child has grown with Primrose from infant to toddler and is about to make his way into early preschool. We have been very happy how the daily classroom structures and curriculum have grown with him to continually promote development.Primrose is also great at keeping parents involved and in the know. School announcements are made promptly and clearly communicated. Parents are invited into classrooms to celebrate events throughout the year and are often invited to spend time reading to the classrooms on Friday mornings. In addition, parents are given frequent daily updates through the school app so you can see exactly what your little one is up to and learning about throughout the day. This makes it easy to continue the lessons after school at home.We look forward to continuing to see our son develop at Primrose.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.”

“We love this daycare; very caring and nurturing environment. We are very impressed with their program and structure provided to our toddler. He loves going in and is always super excited to tell us about his day. Very grateful for Hannah’s leadership and how she has shaped the program.”

“As an art teacher I have been working with students from Genesis for the past 2 years. It is a real pleasure to do different art projects, teach them various techniques and develop their creative minds.”

“We've been to many preschools in the downtown area and this is our favorite. The staff is very caring, and also understanding of working parents busy schedules. The teachers and staff are very responsive - they return messages immediately. Additionally, the children don't just have fun at school, they're actually getting enrichment. The school shares the weekly lesson plans - and I can tell from my children's vocabulary that they are learning too!”

“As a dad, nothing matters more to me than knowing my child is safe, happy, and loved—and the teachers from TLE in ER from Toddler B group, Ms. Mellany and Ms. Melinda have completely earned my trust. From day one, they’ve gone above and beyond to create a warm, nurturing environment that feels like a second home.
They don’t just watch the kids—they engage with them, teach them, comfort them, and cheer them on through every little milestone. I’ve watched my toddler grow so much socially and emotionally, and it’s 100% thanks to the amazing care and energy these teachers bring every day.
It’s clear they love what they do, and as a parent, there’s nothing more reassuring than that. Thank you for everything you do—you’ve made a huge difference in our lives.”

“? There are truly no words to express how thankful I am for The Learning Experience in Englewood Cliffs. ?

After several schools in Fort Lee and the surrounding area, we finally found a place where my son not only learns—he is genuinely happy. My son has mild autism, and I can say with all my heart that this school has been an absolute blessing for our family. We start in 2023.

From day one, the environment has been incredibly inclusive, kind, and full of love. Every single staff member has earned our deepest respect and affection. They don’t just teach—they make a real difference in children’s lives.

? We absolutely adore Ms. Pamela, Ms. Mary, Ms. Milagros, the Director, Ms. Natacha, Ms. Bianca, Mr. Sebastian… EVERYONE is amazing. Each person has contributed something beautiful and meaningful to my child’s development.

At this school, we have found respect, inclusion, growth, and above all—love. There is no discrimination, no labels—just real support and commitment to every child. The kids feel seen, valued, and understood.

I can honestly say: I don’t care what I have to pay, because I refuse to compromise my son’s emotional well-being and learning. He deserves the best, and we’ve found it here.

Thank you, truly. Thank you for being more than a school. Thank you for being a community, a family, and a safe space where our children thrive.

With all my heart,
A forever grateful mom.”

“I cannot say enough good things about this daycare center. The owners and employees are such sweet, caring employees. My daughter has been in public school for a few months now, but she sleeps every night with her class picture from Play n Learn. Every week before dance, we have to stop and say hello to Ms Natasha.Play n Learn was very good at prepping my youngest for public school. She is already impressing her teachers with her writing and tracing skills. The staff recognized that she was picking up things early and they accommodated her to ensure she was always engaged and learning new skills. They had a very well rounded curriculum for the preschool aged children. The graduation celebration they threw for the children moving up was so precious, and truly above and beyond what we expected. You could tell how proud the teachers were to see their students growing and blossoming.I very much appreciated the app used to communicate and update with photos of activities throughout the day.Ms Lorelei, Mr J, and Ms Jolina have really made a special place here. I am so glad to have found them and have had them in our children's lives.Thank you for taking such good care of our kids.”

It's comforting to know that our child is in good hands and receiving the best possible care. I highly recommend your daycare to anyone in need of quality childcare.”

“One of the best decisions I have made for my daughter was to send her to All About Me. All staff members deserve 5+s as well for their professionalism. The smile on their faces every morning and the warm welcome when they greet your child is priceless. Facility is always clean and neat. They are always on top of it when it comes to filling you in on your Childs' daily activities and I love getting live updates on their app throughout the day and the pictures/videos. I can go on and on as to why I love All About Me but in short I will say that I highly recommend this daycare center.”

“My son has thrived at TLE and their DOE 3k and pre k programs. The classrooms are clean, bright and sunny. The teachers are extremely patient, kind, warm and offer great academics to students. We loved Ms. Sara and Ms. Shawnataya! We will miss the pre-school”

“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!”

“Morningside Playcare has been such a wonderful experience for both my son (age 4) and our family! Their staff is so experienced and truly cares about each and every child. They honor their school's philosophy but also respect your choices. They understand what it takes for children to thrive and provide amazing parent/children check in points! The most thorough we've ever had! We wish we could stay with them forever!”

“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.”

“I really recomend this school, Because there is a great support from many teachers and I have seen my kid having improved in sereveral subject, which means it has excellent education for students.”

“My family enjoyed our years at Purple Circle. An amazingly nurturing environment and very community minded. Elaine and Laurie are so very passionate about our children”

“My son has been attending Bright Horizons at East 46th street since March of 2023. We were referred to BH by a friend after my son had extreme difficulty settling into a 2’s program at another school. The friendly and welcoming staff at Bright Horizons were confident they could transition our son into their program and have gone above and beyond in doing so. From our first day there, the center director and assistant director have been nothing but positive and communicative regarding our son and his progress. Over the past 4 months we have watched him grow in ways we never thought possible, even dropping him off without tears as he runs toward whatever wonderful activity his teachers have set up for the day. From water play, to painting and dancing, reading, walks, and singing, our son is constantly stimulated and we love receiving updates via their app throughout the day. The teachers at BH are so loving, patient and hands on and meet each child where they are developmentally and emotionally. We are so thankful to everyone at BH for being a part of our sons life and educational journey.”

“My son has been attending this daycare for the past 5 years, and I can honestly say it has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made for him. From his very first day, the staff has treated him like family—always showing patience, kindness, and genuine care.

Over the years, I’ve watched him grow in confidence, social skills, and learning. The teachers go above and beyond to make sure every child feels safe, loved, and supported. They provide fun, educational activities that keep the kids engaged, while also teaching important life skills.

Communication has always been excellent—they keep me informed about his progress, daily activities, and any concerns. I’ve always felt confident dropping him off each day knowing he’s in a nurturing, positive environment.

We are so grateful for all the love, guidance, and dedication the staff has shown over the years. This daycare has truly been like a second home for my son, and we will always be thankful for the role they’ve played in his growth and happiness.

Thank you to EVERYONE”

“You can take systematic and professional basic classes Lv.2 Lv3.
Serai instructor is good for beginners who are learning the basics of swimming.
I also recommend learning from Kyle and Branden after beginners.
You can learn more about advanced swimming skills and professional games, skills, and postures.
I took the class from lv.2 for exactly 1 year, and my 6-year-old child passed the swimming team evaluation.
When looking at the growth and classes objectively over the past year, the best advantage of the center's classes was that the swimming instructors explained sufficiently and made class kids and parents understand.
They suggested ways to think about, approach, and enjoy exercise, not just classes.
Therefore, my little piggy was able to learn happily without giving up.

If consider, swim team. Jcc coach Nile is a specialist and not only him, but also sub coaches are also very good.
AS parents, we expect the kids to be good swimmers. Here in JCC, not only good swimmer but also learn attitude and mind. I really respect this teaching approach, and thanks.
My little piggy will be the center's proud one day or someday, and this program's instructors and programs are my proud.

More than my references, good ?”

“The best decision I made for my son was coming to TLE for 3k and 4k. Jessica, Rene and Sam are an admin team like no other. They run a tight ship, keep the lines of communication open and always make the safety of our children their priority. The teachers are amazing and show such care, compassion and love for every child. My son has learned so much and looks forward to going every day. I cannot put into words how much I trust and love this school. The facility is clean and safe. My only complaint is that TLE doesn’t go up to 5th grade! My son has made memories he will keep for a lifetime.”

“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.”

“From the moment I toured the Weekday School and saw its beautiful and light-filled classrooms, I knew I found the perfect place for my son to have his first classroom experience. Since he started in September, we have felt welcomed by the parent community, seen him grow in so many ways (from social skills to vocabulary), and been amazed by the generous and caring teachers he spends the day with. I can't recommend the Weekday School enough. He loves all of the art, music, and dance they engage in and the play-based curriculum offers him the opportunity to fall in love with learning. The school has two spacious outdoor spaces that are used throughout the day. One of the best parts of Weekday is also the flexibility they offer--students can attend 2, 3, or 5 days and there are three pick up times, which makes this school a true gem for working parents.”

“I cannot say enough good things about the 2's program! It’s truly amazing. The structure is engaging, and the teachers are incredibly attentive and nurturing. My child has shown so much growth since starting. Highly recommend it to any parent looking for an exceptional learning environment for their little ones!”

“It took me a lot to write this review becouse this place was my kids second home for 3 years and i felt so sad on their last day Miss Jacky and all the teachers were amazing with my son leo y Lucian. This place gave me and the boys amazing memories. I willl be forever grateful I got the chance to have my boys at this daycare. Thank you so much kids place for everything.”

“Excellent experience in both locations, the staff is kind and knowledgeable, and keen to make you experience new tricks rapidly. 2 hours is plenty of fun. Highly recommend”
