“It’s such a relief knowing my boys are not only well cared for, but genuinely happy. They wake up excited to go to school & come home excited to tell me all about it too! I would recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a warm, reliable, and welcoming environment.”
“The Albany Jewish community center is a fantastic facility filled with warm welcome and stuff you can easily answer your questions and create a sense of belonging and community was very impressed with the cleanliness of facility and the variety of different options it provides play a critical role on the social fabric of the community”

“We found this school after trying other traditional daycares in the area. This school is wonderful. It's respectful to the development of young children. My child has learned independence and confidence in learning. The teachers are well trained, caring and push kids in a gentle manner to be their best. My child spends lots of time outside and in nature. She has learned so many subject areas in a manner that a young child understands and retains. The owner is easy to work with and maintains continuing education for her staff in the Montessori methods. My only regret is that we did not find this school sooner. Truly a wonderful asset to early childhood education in Clifton Park.”
“My child just started attending there around 2-3 weeks ago and I love it. He’s in Infant B Kimberly & Kaley class and I love them. I wanted to give a special shout out to them especially Kimberly. She is so helpful, kind, and informative. You can tell she really loves the kids and with this being my baby first time going to daycare I really appreciate her. I will literally have anxiety if he’s not in the classroom with her lol but again thank you guys❤️”

“Fabulous day care. The director, Ashley is warm and inviting and shows care and concern for families. I provide speech therapy for children at the center and the teachers show interest in my work and ask questions so they can follow through with strategies to help children grow.”
“The director, Sarah has shown light across the center every day! She makes all parents aware of any changes and plans so many fun activities for the children to do. The center focuses on warm and welcoming and I think they do an amazing job expressing that to all the parents and children. 10/10 recommend bringing your child here.”

“I work here, the staff is really great, the hours are good, and during this COVID situation we are doing everything humanly possible to keep the school safe, sanitized, multiple times a day.”
“My daughter has been at Jack and Jill for the past two years and I couldn't be more pleased with our experience there. The director, the entire staff and the supporting staff are all absolutely incredible. They have such a great program, have many events and field trips and have really prepared my daughter for kindergarten which she will be starting in September. She did so well at Jack and Jill last year that I decided to forgo UPK at our district and keep her at Jack and Jill and Im so glad that I did. She is MORE than ready for kindergarten. She's reading, writing and doing basic math and she's such a confident well balanced kiddo because of this school. The only regret I have is that she couldn't have been there longer. Highly highly recommend this place for anyone with kiddos 3-5 years old”

“Fifteen years ago, my son, who is autistic, attended this center (at the old location). Although his specific needs ultimately required a different level of care, the staff worked hard to accommodate us and were genuinely trying to help our son. We still remember and appreciate their efforts.”
“While the staff that work with the children do a lovely job, the policies set forth by OCFS often run counter to your child's best interest. The policies for Covid-19, will keep your healthy kids out of school for weeks. Unfortunately, there are limited amount of programs for special needs children in this area and they are all funded by OCFS. If it is possible for you to bring your child further south to a program that is not under OCFS, I highly recommend that you do so. Those of us that cannot are struggling to keep our children in school and managing the issues with regression/behavior that we're encountering as a direct result of these policies.”

“Our son has attended this preschool for the past two years. It was such a great decision for our family and he had a wonderful experience with his introduction to school. The staff are all experienced, kind, and amazing with children! They have rotating themes so the kids are doing different and fun activities every single day. It's a great program for families who are looking for part time care!”

“I cannot say enough good things about childtime . I’ve had both of my daughters go through this Center, and being there has helped them grow and develop their personal skills in a way I could have never done at home. The teachers and staff are kind and caring. The ability to check in on your child with the cameras truly gives you peace of mind too. We are super grateful for childtime, and we highly recommend this center.”
“My child has been attending Stepping Stone for over 3 years now. Every single one of the staff members there are WONDERFUL!!! It feels like I’m seeing my extended family every time I walk into the building. The staff makes sure all areas are very clean. Wiping down tables & toys constantly, sweeping, dishes, stove, you name it. The bathrooms the toddlers use are cleaner than my house bathroom!No matter where you go everyone is going to have their own opinion. I feel truly lucky to have found a place that I feel comfortable sending my child, knowing that he is safe and well cared for. The curriculum that they use is wonderful! It helps take some guilt away from not being able to be home with him like I was with my first.”

“I have used Tutor Time of Troy for both of my daughters and I absolutely love this place. The staff here is so kind, friendly and caring. The communication is so strong. If you need anything at all they accommodate your needs. Tutor Time of Troy has convenient hours, it’s a very safe place and they have an app which allows you to know exactly what your child is doing all day they update you and share really great fun pictures of all the super fun activities that they do. You can also view live video. My daughter looks forward to going to her school to have so much fun and play with her friends. I highly recommend this place for your child.”
“We really couldn't be happier with the care our daughter is getting here! Every member of the staff is so caring, communication is fantastic, and our daughter so looks forward to coming in to see her teachers and friends every day. I would 100% recommend!”
