“If I could give Redbirds 10 stars I would! I am so thankful for the team at Lightbridge Whippany. I’m a first time mom and my daughter has been there for almost a year. My husband and I feel they are a very important part of my daughter’s care team. In my experience, these are people who really know their stuff when it comes to early childhood development. Their actions show that they truly care about the children’s outcomes. They give me great advice and ideas and I trust them wholeheartedly. I have camera access, but I really only watch to cheer myself up at work! My daughter is always smiling, dancing and learning. If I have questions or concerns I bring it up with them. I feel supported. Ms. Yvette has always been there for us from day one, and soon after Ms Juwell; both of these ladies helped us care for our daughter during a very challenging year for our family. We’re so happy to have Ms Bryanna now and we also love the Goldfish teachers, Ms Estrella, and everyone else who watches over our kiddo! It means so much to us that she is happy, cared for, and loves going to school.”

“Ms Hudson is a great director. I had the chance to experience her work and dedication to the school a few years back. I had my son Jasper enrolled in her school and she was always organized and very nurturing to the kids. I'm so excited to learn that she also opened another school. My child always enjoyed going to the school and meeting his friends and teachers. I would recommend my friend's children to go to this school if they are in the area because you will see a big difference in your child's developmental growth. Thanks again Ms. Hudson for all that you have done for my child and the other children there.Jeff M.”

“My son has been going to LTA since March 2024 . I have nothing but positive things to say . The director and all the staff at LTA are wonderful. My son loves it there , thank you so much for hiring the right people .”

“This place is amazing it really helps the children advance in their learning levels. I would defiantly recommend it. Thanks to them, my daughter is not only at her grade level, but higher.”

“I have been working with Larry for years since a major physical set back. He always has workouts that are within my limitations but still push me to get stronger. His knowledge is so expansive. He knows so much about the human body and what makes it work best. Add in his knowledge of food and you have the whole package. Larry doesn't just know all these things he lives them, making him empathetic on top of encouraging. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone looking to become more healthy!”

“We’ve been a part of the TLE Warren family since January 2022 and there just aren’t enough wonderful things we can say about it. The facility, the staff, the teachers, everything. Our kids are so happy coming in to school each day. They enjoy learning and playing. The staff is so good at communicating each day whether it’s a phone call or email. Thanks to the app we are kept up to date on our children’s daily activities. They always have fun things planned for the kids each month and they make summer time so fun. We highly recommend this center to anyone considering it.”

“We absolutely adore all of the teachers and staff at Goddard! They treat my two boys like family. I trust them and know that my kids are well taken care of and always have a fun day at school”

“I'll start this review by saying that as a first time mom, the most difficult decision to date has been how to even start the process to find the best daycare that will meet all of my baby's needs while my husband and I are at work. I went on many interviews and even had to make a difficult decision to have her enrolled at another facility due to lack of immediate availability and unfortunately they were not a good fit, but that is what ultimately led us back to waiting for a space at Crawlers 2 Scholars. This facility was worth the wait. I first scheduled a tour with Sue earlier in the year and from the first phone call to my first meet and greet she was knowledgeable, warm, responsive, honest, and true to her word regarding a wait time. Once there was an available space for my daughter in the infant room, Nicole the director went above and beyond to not only make my one year old feel welcome (with baby massages and peek a boo hellos) but she continues to be an intricate part of her adjusting to her daycare experience. She is in Miss Christine and Miss Michele's infant class and they greet her with smiles and open arms every day and even message me on days she isn't in checking to see how she is doing wishing her all the best. They keep my husband and I informed with pictures, videos, messages, and updates throughout the day in the app (and emails)and we couldn't be more grateful for the full transparency in communication and to have found them to care for our baby. They celebrate all holidays and are hands on with the kids, have weekly itineraries/schedules emailed, keep the infants busy with sensory activities and engage with them constantly whether it's with a music class or walk outside in strollers! They even take the time at pick up to let me know how her day was. Our daughter has a daily adjustment period that requires patience, love, understanding, and often times a lot of tears. There has not been a single instance that they have not welcomed her with open arms with the "we got this" and "go and have a great day" attitude. If I could give them 100 stars I would. We have discussed a potential move in the near future and we will continue to bring her to Crawlers 2 Scholars no matter the distance as this has become her second home! We recommend this to any family looking for a positive experience! Worth every penny.”

“My children (2 and 5) have attended KinderCare for the past 5 years and it has been nothing but an amazing experience for my family. We have specifically been at the Mountain Boulevard location for almost 2 years and there have been a lot of changes. They are under a new management team, and we can't say enough positive things about the directors, Melissa and Mariana. They are both at the center consistently and always greeting every child and family with a smile. They have done such a wonderful job creating a warm, fun, and inviting environment and my kids love going to school because of it. We also love how much they care about safety and supervision, and how much they invest into their teachers. It is clear that this team loves what they do because it reflects in the love they show to my kiddos.Miss Julia, Miss Ana, Ms. Konny, Mr. Eric, and every other teacher in the building are nothing but kind, patient, nurturing, and loving. Having to leave my children in the care of others was not an easy decision, but this team has gained mine and my wife's complete trust and confidence, and that is rare and special.Thank you to the Melissa, Mariana, and the rest of the team at Mountain Boulevard KinderCare for loving and caring for my children as if they were their own. We couldn't be happier to be apart of this KinderCare family!”

“In my opinion, this day care is THE BEST DAY CARE in town (and neighboring towns). Let me start off by saying, that similar to many parents, I researched many daycares before choosing a location. In addition, my child attended two other day cares before we landed here.

The way the teachers interact with the children is wonderful to see. The teachers are firm and consistent in their approach to bad behavior, they are attentive, kind, and patient, their curriculum provides a good education, they have fun (art, shaving cream, dancing).

It’s truly the BEST DAYCARE IN TOWN. My daughter has learned so much!!!!! Examples - ABC’s, sign language, how to write, even some Spanish colors, and so much more.

The Director, Johana is phenomenal, as well. My daughter was having a behavioral issue ~2-3 months into joining. She was ok with the other children but she was not listening to the teachers and displaying bad behavior that was not her normal behavior. At first, I thought maybe it was the daycare but I believe it was due to the fact that we just changed daycares and in parallel I was transitioning her into her own room / bed.

To put this into context, it got bad enough to where Johana (the director) had to sit me down. She explained all the issues and the impact it was having. She gave some recommendations on what we could work to implement, together, to try and rectify the problem. She was also very clear on how long we had to try and implement a solution (before we would need to change schools). All things I truly appreciated because there was over communication on the problem, a willingness to work together to try and resolve the issue, and a clear deadline.

In the end, I was finally able to get through to my daughter and her morning statements of “I don’t want to go here!!!” changed into “I can’t wait to tell Ms. Caila XYZ” or greeting Mrs. Johana on the way to excitedly join Ms. Temu’s class.

Their willingness to try and work with you (as a parent) and their dedication to providing a safe, fun, and educational place for all the children is impeccable. You won’t regret sending your child, here.”

“Westminster Nursery School has been such a welcoming and nurturing environment for my family since 2018. I can not say enough good things about the teachers and staff. My children absolutely love their teachers and have thrived at Westminster, having learned essential social skills and more importantly, having fun learning! I highly recommend this program!”

“We LOVE Primrose of Morristown! The director and administration truly care about every single child that walks through the doors. Teachers and support staff are top notch! My daughter lights up walking in and is very eager to go play with her friends! They have made us feel welcomed, known, and heard.”

“Fantastic school experience. Great infrastructure and service level!! I recommend without a doubt!! That is the place I feel safe and confident about my children education!!”

“Both of our children attended Primrose School of Berkeley Heights, and we had a very positive experience from the toddler class through PreK and summer camp. The teachers are extremely skilled, caring, patient, responsive, constantly provide feedback, and create a real connection with the kids (they often ask how the kids are doing, years after moving on to a different class or school). They’ve helped teach our kids everything from proper hand washing to reading and math. Regular classroom activities are often supplemented with special programs or guests focused on sports, arts, or science. And the frequent updates, photos and videos throughout the day are reassuring (and fun to look through.) The administrative staff work very hard to keep the school running smoothly and the families involved and updated (email responses are very prompt) and even entertained (there is at least one family event or party per quarter, with good food, nice decorations, and fun things to do for all.) The school building, classrooms, and playground are clean, safe, well-equipped, nicely decorated, and comfortable. The food and snacks provided (which is so convenient!) are healthy, diverse, but also tasty (kids sometimes make desserts in class.) We are happy to see our children so well-prepared for school - but also sad they have to leave the comforting environment of PSBH and its teachers and staff.”

“This daycare came highly recommended. It does not disappoint. My son started at 5 months old and absolutely loves it. Even from the interview it smelled so clean and the owners were so warm and friendly. I can tell when I pick him up he loves the staff and enjoys his time there. The program is very structured and i appreciate all of the rules in place for keeping my child safe, happy, and healthy. I feel secure leaving my child there during the day Monday through Friday and would recommend this daycare to any other parents looking for a daycare.”

“We love sending our little one here. The staff are so kind and loving! Our baby loves going to daycare and sometimes doesn't even want to go home at the end of the day.”

“We absolutely love My Very Own School! Three of my children have graduated from the Pre-K class there, and they were all more than prepared for Kindergarten. The owner, Miss Danielle, is absolutely wonderful. If we ever had any questions, she always responded immediately, and with the kindest personality. The teachers, Miss Tiphanie & Miss Erika, were amazing! They truly cared for all of their students, and were also terrific at communicating with parents at drop off & pick up. Our children also enjoyed the various activities that MVOS had to offer, especially Kids Zumba with Miss Judy, and The Fun Bus! MVOS is always very clean, and smells very clean. So if you are looking for a daycare or preschool for your children…look no further…My Very Own School is the BEST!”

“Our time spent here was beyond precious! All the teachers are dedicated to the kids feeling cared for, having fun learning and being kept safe. I couldn’t recommend Heritage enough and felt so grateful for our time there and sad that it was over!”

“We joined TLE about 2 months ago and our little girl is thrilled to go in every day. My husband was nervous at first since she had always been cared for by family, but by the second week he was relieved we had made the right choice. Our daughter is thriving here and the teachers and assistant teachers really care for the kids. I love that the staff is diverse and they are always friendly when greeting the little ones. We are very pleased so far that our daughter is so happy there.”

“The staff and administration at BH are best in class; they’re supremely organized, never overwhelmed, and extremely thoughtful in how they develop each and every student. The ratios are attractive, and the development we’ve seen in such a short time has been very impressive. We’re very confident in the BH team, and will not hesitate to send our second there as well when the time comes!”

“I had to pull my son out of his previous preschool because of some serious health and safety concerns. This preschool is amazing, he started mid year and adjusted immediately and LOVES his teachers Mrs Martina & Mr Colin. The administrative staff is amazing, the support staff is amazing, and the teachers are amazing. I can see the difference in how my son acts every day, happy to go to school and happy to see his teachers, instead of crying every day at drop off. I could not recommend this school more highly. I'm so grateful I found such a loving and nurturing environment where my son can learn and grow.”

“Absolutely love this place. The director & director assistant are wonderful. They've made this the easiest transition ever. My son used to cry at drop off EVERYTIME at his previous Pre-K. From the first day he went to this school, he did not cry and that is 100% due to the staff and his amazing teacher. My son feels safe, and content going to school. Thank you lightbridge academy ❤️”

“My now 9 month old has been coming here since he was 4 months old. The staff is experienced and kind, and the babies have fun interacting together and playing.The school itself is really nice, both inside the classroom and the little turfed area where the babies play outside; clean, secure, safe, and fun.I especially love that they take lots of pictures and videos throughout the day, and there’s even camera access so you can peek in! They also have an app where they keep us updated with food, diapers, etc which is also used for communicating with your child’s teachers which is very nice to have.My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care our son is provided, and we can’t wait to see him grow here. :)”

“My daughter loved Zimmer since day 1 till her last day of Pre K. The quality of time she spent in the school is noteworthy and she was more than ready to enter the public school system. Her baby brother is sure to also be a part of Zimmer soon.”

“What an adorable, warm and welcoming school. The management and the staff is amazing. They have all been there for a long time so you can just feel the positive energy and family like environment. Highly recommend??”
