Supervision and Staying in the RoomDirect Supervision: Daycare staff must supervise children directly at all times, including during transitions and hallway walking. A child wandering out of a room unsupervised constitutes a serious licensing breach. I have continuously tried to work with the daycare to resolve the issue. They have forced me to sign an agreement which is a breech of law to supervise my child. they do not wish to work with me to resolve the issue, instead they are trying to switch responsibility to me the parent and have stated several times to me that there facility is not safe for my 2 year old child who has been attending there since he was 3 months old. I do not recommend them to anybody. I get called 2 or more times a week to come pick up my child. this also accured previously but I had let it go but now they have gone to far!!!

I never knew consistently which 'teacher' my child had each day. Also, if you are unable to participate during an event, you are made to feel bad. Not a good experience.

If you are looking for a nurturing, loving, consistent environment, you have found it. They have given him such a firm foundation. His vocabulary and his social skills are thriving due to the structure and LOVE that they show each child. The health battle that we have been tackling with our son has been eased by Alphabet's support and again, clear love and care. They really impressed me with the way that they handled this insanely unprecedented year of covid with love and care. They were flexible and accommodating in a time that was very complicated. The consistency of teacher faculty and the consistency of each day were a firm foundation that we rely on and thank everyone at Alphabet for working so hard to maintain!

As parents who have no prior experience with daycare or schools for kids, we had lots of worries…read more Being the protective mom that I was, I was never too excited or keen with the idea of having our son go, so we waited until he was a year and a half. My husband and I agreed that it is about time as he needs to learn to socialize as well. We searched and looked for the right school or a care provider and eventually found Lightbridge Academy at Delran, NJ. They eased all our worries, answered all our questions, excellent staff, even great walkthrough! Everything was on point. They also have cameras where you can check in on your little one whenever you wish. In such a short time, our son showed amazing progress. This is coming from a boy who is exclusively BF and only sleeps with mommy, rarely with daddy and is very dependent on being latched. Like any kid, in the beginning, he showed attachment issues and cries at drop off. The teachers and the staff are so on point that they make sure to find ways to divert his attention and engaged with him. He took a very little time to adjust, and before we knew it, he loved spending every single day with his classmates, teacher, and learning the activities. He would come home a happy kid, and when we do our own activities at home, he continues to surprise us. In fact, one day, he came home and just started showing hand movements to certain songs that he loves to interact to! This is all thanks to the excellent curriculum, patience of the teachers & staff, and how well they manage the facility. Recently we had to move out, and Lightbridge Academy at Delran, NJ had us so spoiled that we were hoping to find the same care that they provided us. To date, we are still looking. Believe it or not, my husband and I can't stop wishing that there's a Lightbridge Academy here out west. Nothing can compare. I promise you when I say this, and it is NOT an exaggeration at all ... it is not easy to find a school or daycare that will provide the love, care, AND ALSO include your child's learning as part of their priority. Some will simply be a place for your kids to stay at like a playground, which is what we realized the hard way. With Lightbridge Academy at Delran, NJ, you get to have it all and more! If you are in the area and are considering them for your kids, don't think twice about it. Highly recommended from our family to yours.

Our son has been a student at House at Pooh Corner for a year now and I can say that this is a…read morespecial school. There are many things I like about this school--the love and patience shown by the teachers, the intentional community-building, the inclusive atmosphere--but what really sets it apart to me is thought and care that goes into the design of the educational experience. I am a teacher, and I think a lot about how an educator's vision affects how students learn. My experience has been that many daycare centers either lack any educational vision at all, or else teach a "canned" curriculum devised by an institution outside the school. Not so at Pooh Corner. The educational director works with the teachers to develop a curriculum that is appropriate for THESE SPECIFIC KIDS and reflects their interests. They do special projects based on whatever the kids are excited about--my son's class did a project on shoes, and then another on "gravity" (things going up and falling down). The kids get exposure to lots of different kinds of learning experiences. They have a weekly science class that involves gardening, composting, and bugs. This is not just "experiential" science either--they collect data on their plants (I don't think they call it that, but that's what it is) and compare the ones growing inside and outside! There are options like Spanish class and dance class as well. This is all in the context of lots of free play with a great outdoor playspace, as well as time for physical skills, reading, letters, and numbers. However even the letters and numbers are incorporated thoughtfully into the things that the kids are interested in. The school works as a team with families on big changes like potty training--it made it so easy for us, I think he went from diapers to underpants in two days. They also encourage kids to do as much as possible by themselves, which helps them to be independent.

After a very disappointing experience at another daycare, I can confidently say that House at Pooh…read moreCorner is everything you want and can expect from a daycare. We send our current toddler there, and we plan to send our future infant there as well. (And we plan to have them grow through each class within the center.) The daycare is well staffed and has floating staff, so each room is always equipped with the minimum (often more than) number staff required for each age group. This helps the staff morale, as it seems that no one is over or underworked. The staff is friendly, knowledgable and truly cares about the children and the community. And many staff members have been there for many years (some are former students of Pooh Corner). Notable Pros: -Staff members are ALWAYS "on the floor". They are never sitting in a chair and on cell phones (unfortunately, many other daycares accept this). Staff are actively involved and playing with and teaching the children. -Lesson plans are sent through email weekly. Other emails are sent with pictures of events and other things that the community is involved in. -There is a strong community mentality. Pooh Corner is a welcoming community with many volunteer events, art shows, and social events (at the center and at parents' homes). -Everybody knows everyone else. Because of the movement of staff floaters and the community mentality, everyone knows my wife, my daughter and me, when I walk in (from the director, to the pre-school teachers, to all of my daughter's teachers in the toddler room). This truly makes me feel like my daughter is in safe and caring hands. -Outdoor play everyday (weather permitting). They have a wonderful playground and do things like water play in the summer. -They have a focus on sustainable practices and organic materials. They welcome cloth diapers provide organic sunscreen and bug spray during the spring/summer.

My daughter had separation anxiety from me (even before enrolling in daycare) which made the transition very difficult emotionally. The staff was beyond supportive and let me stay during drop off as long as I needed before feeling like my baby was okay enough for me to leave. Fast forward and my daughter is thriving. Loves the environment and they've helped her so much with independent sleeping and keeping a great routine. It's hard leaving your kids with strangers but this staff is so personable and caring for each child, it makes me feel so much more comfortable knowing my child is SAFE.

We came to Just Children after our pre-school aged child was asked to leave her original daycare…read moredue to behavioral issues. During our initial tour of the facility we were upfront with Director Lisa about our child's issues and she assured us they would be willing to work with us and our child. She was very patient with us in answering all of our questions and introduced us to the teacher who would likely be our child's teacher. They even invited us back a second time so that our child could check out the classroom (something no other facility we saw did). Only once our child was enrolled did we see what a night and day difference Just Children was from our previous day care facility. Our child began thriving almost immediately in her new classroom. Our child's teacher, Ms. Nicole, seemed to know just exactly how to approach our child. In a short period of time we saw a significant improvement in her letter and number recognition as well as writing ability. Her behavior in and out of the classroom improved as well. The activities, field trips and special guests that Ms. Nicole planned kept our child engaged and excited. Although we entered the school year late Just Children really did a great job letting our family feel like a welcome part of their community. Their communication system (Tadpoles) is fantastic and allowed us to stay informed of our child's daily activities and see what fun activities they were up to that day. We were so impressed with the staff and curriculum at Just Children we also moved our other child in as soon as space was available. Cannot recommend these guys enough.
