    “This place is incredible! My two sons, aged 5 and 3, thoroughly enjoyed the various classes and special events. We even hosted a birthday party here, and it was an absolute blast. The place is exceptionally clean, and it’s evident that the coaches take great pride in maintaining it. If you have young children, this should definitely be a regular stop for you.”

    “We recently moved from another country, and the team at Old Tappan KinderCare made the transition for our four-year-old daughter incredibly warm, pleasant, and welcoming. Starting in a new new environment can be challenging, but they helped her feel comfortable and safe from the very first day. The center’s director, Jessica, is exceptional — highly professional, caring, and always attentive to both the children and the parents. She creates a calm, supportive atmosphere that truly sets the tone for the entire center. The assistant director, Holly, is also wonderful. She is warm, approachable, and consistently goes out of her way to support families and ensure the classroom environment runs smoothly. Her kindness and attention to detail make a real difference. Our daughter’s teacher, Ms. Diana, has been amazing as well. She is patient, kind, and truly understands how to connect with children while helping them grow socially, emotionally, and academically. Our daughter absolutely loves her and looks forward to school every day. We are extremely grateful for the thoughtful care, communication, and professionalism of the entire team. Highly recommended for any family looking for a nurturing and high-quality Pre-K experience.”

    “We have had a wonderful experience with KinderCare with my son. The teachers are loving and enthusiastic. They provide meals and snacks. They provide bedding and cots for naps and they launder the bedding for you. It feels secure as they require a pin to be able to enter the school. I get tons of pictures and updates throughout the day so I can watch my son having so much fun and learning every day. My son has food allergies and KinderCare has dealt with it seamlessly and provided alternative food options for my son to keep him safe. They even worked with me to help with his skin allergies/eczema so he was getting skin treatments throughout the day. KinderCare has given my son a safe, secure childcare option while also fostering his social and academic growth.”

We’ll miss everyone there so much! If anyone I know is looking for a daycare, I would definitely recommend Emma!”

    “What a wonderful play school! Our daughter is enrolled here and just about to complete her time and we are so sad she has to leave. We wish she could stay with Ms. M and Ms. P for much longer. Initially we were worried since she’s never really been enrolled in anything away from us but she took to the program like she was made for it. Her teachers are engaging, they have so many fun projects they work on and some of those little accomplishments are brought home back to us. We love seeing how happy she is there and she looks forward to returning every week! Every child should be fortunate to be taught by such warm and caring teachers. Highly recommend!”

    “I cannot say enough wonderful things about this daycare. I started with my oldest daughter 2½ years ago, and later my younger daughter joined as well. From the very beginning, the staff made my girls feel safe, loved, and excited to learn. They created a nurturing, caring, and fun environment where children can truly thrive. The teachers are patient, attentive, and genuinely treat each child as if they were their own. They always kept me informed about my girls’ progress, celebrated their milestones, and offered reassurance whenever I needed it as a parent. Knowing my daughters were in such compassionate and capable hands gave me incredible peace of mind. Today was our last day, and I can honestly say that nothing has been harder about leaving the neighborhood than saying goodbye to all of you. You have been such an important part of our family’s journey over the past 2½ years. The love, kindness, encouragement, and care you showed my girls will never be forgotten. Thank you for every hug, every lesson, every smile, and every memory. We are forever grateful for the impact you’ve had on our daughters’ lives. I wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a place where their children will be genuinely cared for, supported, and loved.”

We have had such great experiences with all the teachers that we have had. The teachers are so caring, compassionate and always there to help. My kids walk in with a smile and leave with one. Knowing they are in great hands while my husband and I are work, makes our day easier. The pictures and videos help a lot too! The Goddard School of Norwood will always hold a special place in our families hearts and we are forever grateful!”

    “Lightbridge Acadmey of Mahwah is exceptional! As a parent, it’s never easy to trust your children with people you don’t know, but the entire staff here makes that transition feel natural and comforting from day one. They create such a warm, positive, and supportive environment that it genuinely feels like an extension of our family. The teachers go above and beyond—not only are they attentive and caring, but you can actually feel how much they love the children. They take time to get to know each child as an individual, and it shows in the way the kids are welcomed, encouraged, and nurtured every single day. It still amazes me that when we walk down the halls, EVERY teacher knows my sons name; even ones who I don't know their name! I also love that Lightbridge is always keeping things fun and fresh. Their themed events are adorable and so thoughtfully planned, and they’re constantly introducing new and innovative activities to keep the children engaged and excited to learn. Between the creative play, hands-on projects, and structured lessons, the curriculum is fantastic. My child comes home every day talking about something new they learned! If you’re looking for a daycare that combines a strong educational foundation with genuine warmth and community, Lightbridge Academy of Mahwah is the place. We are so grateful to have found it!”

I truly appreciate that it’s completely screen and technology free, allowing children to focus on real play, creativity, and meaningful learning experiences. The emphasis on child development really shows in everything they do. The staff is amazing—caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth. All my (three) kids attended this place. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment!”

    “Our now eleven-month-old has been with KinderCare since December, and overall it’s been a great experience. We had a rocky start, he refused to eat or nap, but we knew it would take time. As he adjusted, things improved and the consistency made a huge difference. He’s now eating and napping well. Our son is obsessed with Ms. Ruth. We love you Ms. Ruth and Ms. Taylor! KinderCare feels very family-oriented, where everyone knows each other. All the teachers we’ve met have been incredibly kind and caring. At this stage, our son clearly shows who he’s comfortable with, and it’s obvious that he loves his teachers, and that they genuinely care for him too. As a parent, it’s never easy leaving your infant in someone else’s care. There were moments I felt overwhelmed, but the teachers were always reassuring and supportive, reminding us that it would get better, and it did. Receiving photo updates throughout the day—whether he’s playing with other infants, taking selfies with teachers, or enjoying time outside, truly makes our day. I highly recommend Paramus KinderCare. Thank you to all the teachers and staff!”

    “I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible teaching staff at Children of America. My daughter recently moved up to the Toddler B room, and the transition has highlighted just how lucky we are. I want to highly commend her previous teachers: Ms. Prudence, Ms. Terry, Ms. Colleen, and Mr. Bradley. They are exceptional and have done a wonderful job caring for and developing my daughter up until this point. They laid a beautiful foundation, and we are so grateful for their hard work. Furthermore, I want to highly recommend and praise her new teacher, Ms. Ashley. Since joining the school, she has shown incredible professionalism and dedication. She is fantastic, warm, and highly attentive, creating a safe, structured, and engaging environment where toddlers can learn and grow. Her communication with parents is excellent. She is a wonderful asset to the school. Thank you to all of these amazing teachers!”

    “This Montessori-based academy is truly one of a kind. My son attended from age two through the June before kindergarten. We tried two other daycares/schools in the area prior to Evergreen and struggled to find the right fit in both structure and environment. Evergreen stood out as top-tier from the moment we walked in. The teachers are incredibly welcoming and clearly understand the responsibility that comes with caring for our little ones. Their consistent communication and photo updates made me feel like my son was still a part of my day, even when we were apart. They foster a family-friendly environment while also teaching strong foundational skills. My son left Evergreen extremely well-prepared for kindergarten. I would recommend Evergreen 1,000%.”

    “There is just no place quite like Lindgren, (look and you won’t find) It carries a unique spirit of childhood and wonder that only 82 years of growth and understanding passed down from generation to generation can accumulate. My son (and I) were blessed to have 3 wonderful years there, and now a 1st grader, he continues to go to their summer camp, a perfect way to balance a year of public school :) , now a tradition he looks forward to. He thrived in this outdoor woodland wonderland, made strong friendships, developed an avid imagination, is unconventionally creative, unafraid, never “bored”, has low interest in devices, and I really believe it’s thanks in big part to the foundation built at Lindgren. His skilled and nurturing warm teachers walked with him from year to year, and being a single mom, they sometimes walked with me too. The school continues to grow and develop with lovely additions like the pottery studio in the barn, a beautiful greenhouse and gardening area, and let’s not forget the always adorable collection of farm animals to love…and so much more. If you’re looking for a place that’s nature based, literally down to earth, will support you in growing a loving, kind and confident human with a foundation that will last a lifetime, then count your lucky stars you found Lindgren. Knowing that I could go to work everyday and had full confidence my child was in fantastic hands, was priceless.”

    “Lollipop Nursery School has been a wonderful choice for our family during our first year with our child. The staff is incredibly professional and patient, supporting not only our son but also us as parents navigating this new chapter. One of the aspects that has made me feel most at ease is how secure I feel the school is and how dedicated the staff is. From the drop-off and pick-up process to communicating about our child's needs, they have gone above and beyond, including accommodating our dietary preferences. As a local community member, I cannot recommend this school more highly, and we are looking forward to experiencing their summer camp program. There is a reason this school has the history it does, and it’s worth every penny tenfold. The most important aspect above all is that our child ENJOYS going. He’s gotten to know his teachers and looks forward to seeing them. The best part is that I truly feel they genuinely care for him and do an amazing job nurturing his growth, interests and development. The curriculum is engaging and age-appropriate, sparking his curiosity and enthusiasm for learning which also carries over to the activities we do at home. From art projects to music and outdoor playtime, each day is filled with opportunities that challenge and inspire him. It’s heartwarming to see the smiles on his face when he shares what he's learned or the friends he's made when we pick him up! The communication with parents is exceptional—regular updates and insights into our child's progress keep us in the loop and feeling involved. This has made our transition into the overall school experience smooth and enjoyable. Lollipop Nursery School has been a wonderful choice for our family. If you're looking for a nurturing, secure, and well-run preschool, look no further. We are incredibly grateful for the remarkable experience we’ve had this year, and we can't wait for what’s to come! Thank you Lollipop Team for the wonderful experience you’ve given us!”

Very impressed with their Covid protocols, but most importantly, for the teachers, shout-out to Mrs. Norma for keeping the kids safe and at the same time, preparing them for the big school, despite the Covid outbreak! It’s a small classroom setting that teaches them to be a part of society, discipline and most importantly for us, Christian values. Thank you to all the teachers and staff for making it possible, through their hard work and love for the children!”

The teachers are really warm and always kindly answer any questions I have. :)The facilities were really good. The classrooms and auditorium were spacious so you could do a variety of activities, and the playground and backyard were well-maintained, so it was an environment where children could play and learn. I especially liked it because there were a lot of outdoor activities, so it felt like I was growing up in nature.And above all, the atmosphere of this kindergarten really feels like family. The faculty and staff are friendly, and communication between parents is smooth. It feels like a big family. I feel so proud and relieved to see my child growing up here. Thank you so much.

My son attended another school before Friends and had a very difficult experience, so seeing the difference here has been incredible. We are so grateful to the entire staff for helping him feel seen, heard, and genuinely respected. Friends offers such a rich variety of creative projects, gardening, games, and yoga. My son comes home singing new songs every day. I honestly never thought I’d hear him ask if he could please go to school, yet here we are. Watching him thrive has been such a gift. I couldn’t recommend this school more.”
