“SmartEarly has been GREAT! We are new to the area and have had in-home child care for our son since he was 2 months old. We chose SmartEarly based on the reviews and a tour of the facility. We could not be happier with our choice. Over the last month we have enjoyed watching our son (now 10 month old) develop with support and excellent care of the staff and with the exposure to the other students.”

“we have had the privilege of sending our child to Child Time of Albany for a year and are constantly impressed with the nurturing she gets. They provide exposure to art, music, sensory play, reading, and outdoor time, they are in constant communication with me during the day updating me on how she is doing, what and when she eats, what she has been doing, and any other questions or updates needed. my family and friends with kids have all remarked that they have never seen a daycare that provides so much exposure to different activities. the teaching staff is constant and reliable so we know everyone who is caring for our child. knowing my child is not only being cared for but thriving in this environment makes it tolerable to be apart from her during the day while I go to work.”
“I have two children attending TI both through the lottery. We love this school so much. When I drop my kids off at school I am filled with a sense of peace and joy knowing they will be safe, loved, and cared for. I find the staff all to be very passionate about teaching and well-suited for their roles. The communication between the teachers, director, and parents is excellent. We get weekly (sometimes more) updates on what they are learning and what is needed from us / is coming up. Although my family is Christian - we love the Jewish aspect of the school. A Muslim acquaintance of mine is also looking forward to sending her child here soon. Personally, my family has enjoyed learning about the Jewish faith and celebrating the Jewish holidays. There are many kids of all faiths, races, and backgrounds in the UPK and 3PK classes. The diversity is wonderful. Packing a vegetarian lunch took a little getting used to but like other reviewers have mentioned my kid's lunches are very healthy because of it. I send them scrambled eggs, PBJ, lots of fruit, nuts (they have nut-free classes if needed), and lots of cheese and crackers. Both of my kids attend TI currently. When one was at daycare and the other at TI it was hard to manage the Christian and Jewish days off as they weren't all the same - but it was worth it because my kids are thriving at the school. Lastly, I want to say that although we have two lottery spots we loved it so much with our first child we put a deposit down for a private spot in the school just in case we didn't get a spot in the lottery. The director refunded the deposit for us when we heard from the district that we had won the lottery again. (The only lottery I ever expect I'll win, and that's okay lol)”
“We could not be happier with Morningstar Montessori. Everything about the school is perfect for us. The atmosphere is so calm and loving and the learning is beyond impressive.”
“Senior lunches are good but portions are a bit smaller than filling. The indoor pool needs fixing but no one can figure out how to raise the money quickly. More programming is needed.”
“Went to arbor hill elementary hack in 1988. Mrs Rawlins was my teacher. Nice school. We lived up the street on Arbir hills on lark drive. Those apartments have been long destroyed. Not bad area”
“Our daughter loved every minute she spent at ABC. She asked to go to school even on weekends. The staff was amazing with her. If she got hurt or sick at school she was given ice/bandaids, snuggles, and love until I arrived. She excelled during her time at ABC and continued to do so in Kindergarten.”

“We absolutely love Kiddie Academy. Our son has been going for over a year now, and we have adored all of his teachers. They have all been so communicative with us through the good and bad. We wouldn’t feel comfortable sending our kids anywhere else!”
“I've been here from 1999~2002. I came back to Korea due to my father's end of expatriate. Even though 15 years have past, I still remember those days I had there, and I wish I can at least keep in touch with my friends.-Taehwan-”

“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 4 year old started Kindercare earlier this year and was in class 4B with Mr Terry and Ms Colleen. I'm so grateful for how amazing they were with him, which encouraged his engagement with their educational program. I always received prompt replies when checking in on how he was doing. I have nothing but good to say about their level of communication as well as their program.”

“We started at CT in Delmar mid pandemic. I originally applied for a spot in June and they held my spot until I started in November of 2020. I had two children in two different classes. The staff at CT in Delmar are loving and attentive we would get plenty of art work and photos sent home of my kids just laughing while getting their feet painted. My older child struggles with drop offs but CT WAS Always very patient and helped him. My older son has now moved on but my younger son is still enrolled. Throughout the pandemic they have been consistent in expressing their policies and expectations and announcing protocols. When masking wasn’t mandatory they were comfortable with the fact that I still wanted my children masked when masking became mandatory they enforced it. Access to cameras and an app are nice but with this school I don’t really check them I know my child is safe and loved and comes home with a smile and a story each day. What more could you ask out of a childcare facility.”

“I haven’t had the pleasure to send my daughter to preschool here as it was not an option then but have had the pleasure to send her to camp here the last 4 years. Every summer she looks forward to coming back to see a lot of the same friends. They really have some of the best theme camps in the area and really go all out in every detail. The activities are all so much fun and she really enjoys the themed snacks too. All the staff treats my daughter like family. If you haven’t signed up for a camp yet, you need to! I promise that you won’t be disappointed.”

“If I can give 10-star, I will not hesitate to do so! My toddler daughter loves this daycare center so much, and so do we! The teachers and the admins are super friendly, caring and loving! They provided various activities that fit children's physical, psychosocial and interpersonal needs and they have a super positive vibes that foster children's everyday development. We have no complains at all for the past 14 months attendance. This is absolutely the best daycare center in the capital area!”

“I was really anxious about putting my infant in daycare but I’ve been thrilled with Childtime in Latham. The director, Ms.Lisa, is great at keeping parents in the loop and was really accommodating when we needed to switch from part time to full time enrollment . My daughter loved Ms. Shakira and Ms.Danielle. She can be a little tough around strangers but they were great at getting her calmed down after I’d drop her off. Ms. Olivia does all sort of neat activities with her class now that she’s a little older. I love the pictures I get sent over the Brightwheel app. Another plus is that this center has cameras in each room that let you check on you child throughout the day. You can’t sit and stream all day long, it has a time limit of half an hour, but it so nice to peak in on her during the day. The staff here really makes the difference.”
