Schools near West Milford, NJ

“Staff super friendly, facility is clean, they provide meals for the kids, peanut free zone for children who are allergic.
Reasonable priced for what daycares are charging, highly recommend.”

“Our family has had a wonderful experience at Discovery Years! The teachers and staff are exceptional in their approach to learning and their communication with families. I always feel well informed about what is happening at the school.
A huge perk for our family is how seamlessly the programs run across multiple age groups, and how hands-on the teachers are in helping children navigate transitions. It’s clear that the staff truly care about supporting each child’s development.
We look forward to continuing to grow with the school!”

“We can’t say enough great things about this daycare!

As a parent, entrusting the care of your child to others is one of the most significant and emotional decisions you'll ever make. I can say with absolute certainty that choosing this daycare was one of the best choices we've made for our family. From the moment we walked through the doors, we were greeted with warmth, sincerity, and a palpable sense of dedication that is simply unmatched!

The owner Genesis is nothing short of extraordinary — her passion for early childhood development, her unwavering commitment to safety, and her deeply nurturing spirit shine through in every detail of the facility. Genesis and her staff are amazing at keeping parents updated through an app they use and always give us feedback on their daily activities.
She leads with heart and integrity, creating an environment that is not only safe and stimulating, but also filled with love, laughter, and learning.

The staff is equally phenomenal. Each caregiver exhibits remarkable patience, compassion, and professionalism. They communicate with genuine care and attentiveness, and it's clear they treat each child as if they were their own. My children have flourished emotionally, socially, and cognitively under their care — and the joy on their face at drop-off says it all.

This daycare is more than a childcare center — it is a second home for our children , a place where children are truly seen, valued, and cherished. I am endlessly grateful to the entire team for their dedication, empathy, and excellence. If you're looking for a place that will nurture your child's mind and heart, look no further!”

“We absolutely love this preschool. Both of our kids have attended, and it has truly become like a second home for our family. The teachers and staff go above and beyond every single day. You can tell how much they genuinely care about the kids and their happiness. They create such a welcoming, family- like atmosphere and fill the year with so many fun and creative activities that our children look forward to every day.

It is such a special place, we can't recommend it enough to anyone looking for a perfect start to their child's education. We'll be so sad when our time here comes to an end - this school has been such a wonderful part of our family's journey!”

“One of the BEST daycares I have ever encountered. Having 3 boys (ages 3 and under) I was concerned about where they would be but I instantly realized they were in great hands! The owner and staff made us feel SO incredibly welcomed and the boys instantly felt loved! If you have second thoughts, DON’T - you’ll see so much educational progress and growth in politeness and advancement in socialization skills!”

“We have been sending our child for a year and a half. That first day of drop off we worried because leaving your little one with someone who isn’t family just doesn’t feel right, but somehow we managed and we are so grateful for the teachers here! They are welcoming, everyone knows our child’s name even if they are not the classroom teacher. I love that there is an indoor and outdoor play area and that the outdoor play area is attached. Some others I visited the children had to be walked over to the play area. There is a library too! The daycare is kept extremely clean, decorated very cute and always smells nice. Each month there is something going on or a theme. Ok so the one possible downfall you may find is the cost, but listen I went to a few other daycares that were not much cheaper, but had a lot of negatives! These days what isn’t expensive? But when it comes to the safety and happiness of my child there is none and our child loves it there. Drop offs are easy and pick ups are sometimes hard because they want to stay lol. Also I will point out that daily AM and PM snacks for the kid is included which I think is pretty cool. Check the place out for yourself I don’t think you will be disappointed.”

“We absolutely love Gingerbread Kids Academy! Our daughter started there when she was just six months old, and from day one, the staff made us feel comfortable, supported, and confident in our decision. As first time parents facing the transition back to work was terrifying, but it was incredibly reassuring to know she was in such caring and capable hands.

The teachers and staff consistently go above and beyond for anything we could have ever asked for. They have always treated us like family, and their kindness, communication, and genuine love for the kids shine through every day. Because of them, returning to work was so much easier, and we never had to worry about our daughter while she was in their care. Everyone, from the morning staff to the afternoon staff, has been absolutely wonderful. Our daughter is in love with all of her teachers. We truly couldn't imagine sending her anywhere else. Gingerbread Kids Academy has been such a blessing to our family, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they do. Five stars just isn't enough.”
