“As a parent, I am thrilled to have found Building Blocks. My son loves going every day. So many loving & attentive teachers; so much fun, joy and learning happening there!”

“We have been beyond thrilled with Building Blocks High Ridge. We moved over to this location about 9 months ago now and we have honestly been blown away by the attention and love that is given to our almost 2 year old. The facilities are bright with lots of windows and the gym and playground are incredible. Everything is size and age appropriate. They do a ton of fun projects, read lots of books and truly follow a curriculum. We are lucky enough to have Miss Maryori and Miss Sandy as our son's main teachers. To me there is no more important job in the world than who is watching our children, and these women are kind, smart, and truly care about the well being of these kids. I highly recommend Building Blocks High Ridge.”

“My daughter started going to SLS at the beginning of this year, and in matter of a couple of days, she was completely adjusted! She loves being there with the teachers and her friends.. to the point she runs in the minute we enter the facility. SLS is also on top of it when it comes to communicating with parents on everything which helps to stay informed about your child. Overall, we are very happy to have made the switch to SLS.”

“I swim 2x a week, my adult son uses the gym 3x a week, my wife takes workout and yoga classes 3x a week — and my friends play pickleball 2-3 nights a week as well.

The JCC is the center of gravity for our community in so many ways — and we’ve been coming here since my kids were little. Like everyone, our kids learned to swim here, held big kids bday parties here, made friends for life at Sara Walker Nursery School (actually we made more life long friends this way than our kids did!), attended galas celebrating our friends or seeing a comedian now and then.

I recommend giving it a look. You certainly don’t have to be Jewish to come daily, feel like you belong and make it part of your family’s story too. It’s clear that all people are cherished here.”

“The Baby Cottage has been a godsend for our infant daughter. She was a mere 4 months old when she started, and as new parents, my husband and I were inherently concerned about her development and quality of life overall. Each day we pick her up at Baby Cottage, she has an illuminating smile. The staff is extremely professional, kind, and very much engaged with each child. Everyday we receive a detailed hand-written report-out on her progress, which I have a great deal of respect for personally. As parents, we also value that Baby Cottage has no TVs, as we've heard stories where daycares simply use television as a device to distract/calm the children vs. actually interacting with them. Not to mention, they supply all diapers, formula, and food for the children. You cannot find a better situation than this. I highly recommend The Baby Cottage to any parent whether your child is an infant or toddler.”

“The staff at TLE Stamford have been so warm and inviting to my son and our family! The directors greet you as soon as you walk in and know each child by name which is impressive with so many little ones! My son’s teachers have been so loving and attentive. My husband and I have seen him grow and develop so much since starting daycare and it is truly a testament to the time and dedication the staff at TLE put into fostering all of the children. We highly recommend TLE!”

“Great school from my experience! My son loved going to school here from the explorer program all the way to pre-K 4. They have lovely enrichment options like field trips, music and gym. They are welcoming and inclusive to all. The lesson plans are always sent to you as a parent ahead of time and they incorporate family projects into their monthly curriculum. I have been thrilled with them and appreciate that the lunch and snack program is inclusive in the tuition. As a hard working parent, I recognize they are not for profit and run by a board inclusive of parents. These are all benefits to the "everyday" working parent and the reasons why I refer them to my friends. Too often, we are quick to write reviews on negative experiences, myself included. I wanted to take the time to note this positive one for future parents considering applying to this school. Schedule a tour and check them out, you can decide for yourself. I cannot say enough good things, even through the uncertain times of the covid pandemic where everyone was learning to navigate a new path, they communicated upfront and valued parental feedback. Their was notable turnover in staff during that time as with all industries but this has since stabilized. I can honestly say they have always made every effort to accommodate the collective needs of the parents. This speaks volumes as to why my children return year after year.”
