“Putting my child in daycare was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make and as a parent, it’s never easy. But the amazing staff here have made that decision feel right from the very start. Their patience, kindness, and genuine love for the kids show every single day.

I see my child growing so much, not just learning new things, but becoming more confident, social, and happy. It means the world to know they’re in a place where they feel safe, cared for, and excited to learn and explore.

Thank you for all that you do. You make such a difference, and it truly doesn’t go unnoticed.”

“Our experience with Beginners First Academy has been truly wonderful. After having a very difficult experience at a previous daycare, where our daughter was sometimes treated harshly and we were concerned about the way children were spoken to, we were very cautious when choosing a new place for her. Because of that experience, finding a daycare where she feels safe, supported, and respected was extremely important to us.

From the moment we enrolled her at Beginners First Academy, we noticed a significant difference in the environment, communication, and overall care.

The staff at Beginners First Academy are kind, attentive, and genuinely caring toward the children. One of the things that reassured us the most as parents is the transparency. Parents are allowed to come into the classrooms, and on several occasions we arrived to pick up our daughter and found her being warmly cared for by her teachers.

One moment that stood out to us was when our daughter was not feeling well during the day. When we arrived, we saw her sitting on a teacher’s lap being comforted and hugged. As parents, seeing that level of compassion and attention meant a lot to us. It showed that the teachers truly care about the children’s well-being and treat them with patience and kindness.

Communication is also excellent. The staff consistently update us about anything that happens during the day, including small incidents or concerns, which makes us feel involved and reassured that our daughter is safe and supported.

Another thing we truly appreciate is that the center is always trying to improve. They started as a 3-star program in Grow NJ Kids and have now achieved a 4-star rating. This shows their commitment to continually improving the quality of their services and the care they provide for children.

The team is knowledgeable and clearly understands child development and early education. It is evident that they care deeply about the children and genuinely try to provide the best care, support, and learning environment possible. The center is clean, organized, and their policies are clearly explained and discussed with parents before enrollment, which made us feel comfortable and informed from the very beginning.

Most importantly, I feel happy and confident sending my daughter there every day. They treat all children and families fairly and with respect.

A special thank you to Ms. Lauren and Ms. Maddie, who are my daughter’s main teachers, as well as Ms. Judy for their kindness and dedication. I would also like to thank the owners for being so involved and truly caring about the center and the children—Thanks to Ms. Erica W. and Ms. Erica S. for the amazing work they do. We also appreciate all the other teachers and staff members at the center. If we did not mention every name, it is not because they are not valued, but simply because these teachers interact with our daughter the most and we have personally witnessed the extra care they provide.

Since starting at Beginners First Academy, our daughter has been happy, excited to go to daycare, and comfortable with her teachers. As parents, there is nothing more reassuring than dropping off your child in the morning knowing they are entering a place where they are respected, cared for, and genuinely loved.”

“The staff is so friendly and genuinely cares about each child as if it were their own! The director Wendi is AMAZING and is always available if you need anything. My child has learned so much and I give all the credit to the school! Every day I receive a paper listing the activities they did and any special notes about the day. My child has a smiling face when I drop off and pick up each day! Also, the daycare is so affordable and you receive amazing care!”

“I spent close to 43 years in education, 18 years in Catholic education and 25 years in public education. I can bluntly say that my 15 years teaching at Holy Spirit were the best years. The parents and students were absolutely the best. The faculty was dedicated, caring and devoted to every kids. The atmosphere was always student oriented and the religious values instilled were long lasting. We had adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, Mass and retreats to deepen the students love for Jesus and His Church. I am grateful I had the opportunity, no privilege, to teach there fifteen years.”

“Highly recommend! Playgroups Plus provides a structured, fun, and caring environment in which children thrive. My children LOVE each and every staff member at PG. The staff is friendly, professional, and accommodate every child’s needs. PG has a wonderful community of families.”

“I highly recommend Davis Holland's learning center! The owner & Jen is very accommodating and nice, always going an extra mile for the children. My daughter absolutely loves going to school here. The teachers are patient and make learning fun. The classrooms are clean, organized, and conducive to learning. I have seen a significant improvement in my daughter's academic performance and confidence since she started attending. I am beyond grateful!”
