From the…read moreowners, their daughters and all of the teachers/ employees, I have NEVER doubted their commitment and ability to love my children and care for them as I would. Knowing they are safe is so comforting. I also love the level of communication with the staff. If I have a quick question, I log on to the app and ask it and have an answer in no time and they can reach out to me the same way. We, as a family, have never been disappointed with their level of care and it's been 2 1/2 years.

The rates are reasonable, the facilities are clean, with large rooms and lots of space outside for the children to play.

We recommend Red Balloon with out hesitation. They're the best! Doug & Pauline

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.

So a little background , my son has been home during the pandemic with my husband and I 16 months …read more I'm also still breastfeeding , so this has been a difficult transition. I've spoke to a few daycares and visited 2. I haven't met all the staff but I will say the Director Megan and my sons teacher Mrs. April are so kind, with so much heart , and have a caring mindset. Also I know Mrs. Samantha helps as well and she is truly kind and in good spirits everyone we speak. This daycare is fairly new so there are a few things that need work. For example: There aren't any cameras available for parents to view from home. So I wasn't receiving updates in a timely matter throughout the day, this included updates on curriculum, pictures ,schedule and his check-in time. I addressed but it was a system issue . I explained the importance and the director has truly been on it doing everything to fix . I've called multiple times just to check in and I've always spoken to someone. I always felt like my son is safe and that is huge for me. I feel like she treats the students and teachers like family . Morning drop off is hard and she is patient and takes her time with each student during drop off. I don't feel rushed she makes sure each child is good and safe. Any issues I've had was made a priority and was told I can call any time. I'm real big on learning and curriculum. She has been keeping me updated on what there learning so we can apply at home. I feel like us as parents we deserve daily reports on words colors etc on what our child is doing and learning because they're in daycare the bulk of the day. It takes a village and consistency to help our little ones learn. So that's why I'm so big on the reports and pictures because us as parents pay so much for child care and deserve updates. Now that I've been getting reports and updates I can truly say management is really committed to providing a safe, fun, loving , learning environment and my husband and I are very thankful to Mrs. Megan she is truly the backbone to this place and it's only up from here with this daycare. Additionally it feels good to see my son going to his teacher Ms. April and comfortable with her I'm so grateful she has made time to write those reports and show me that my child is eating with his utensils and learning different things. I'm definitely a mom that looks to make sure everything is just right. Mrs. Megan has always been professional , kind , and knocked the ball out the park every time I've had a question. So if your a nervous skeptical mom or anyone looking for a great daycare to treat your child like it was there own. Here you g

We are so grateful for Kiddie Academy of Delran! As a first-time Mom I searched high and low for…read morethe best daycares in the area for a variety of reasons: distance, school standards, quality of teachers, teacher to child ratios, cleanliness, price, safety, peanut free facility, and overall vibe. From the beginning I had a good feeling about KA! We knew we were going to have to send our daughter to daycare from the young age of 3 months, so I was not willing to settle. I would be lying if I didn't say it was an adjustment period. As a mom you know what you like, and when you're giving your child over to someone new, it takes time to become comfortable with the style of care. Again, first time mom problems! (lol) Ms. Mary was so patient with all of my questions, concerns, and everything in between! I'll admit, I can be an annoying overprotective mom. There have been a few incidents that have occurred during my daughter's time at KA, but Ms. Mary and the rest of the directors were SO accommodating to our needs. I can't say enough great things about all of the teacher our daughter has had so far. Ms. Michelle in the puppies is a seasoned professional and handles our girl with care at the young age of 3 months. Our daughter (we will call her AHK) learned how to sit up, crawl, and eat while in Ms. Michelle's class. Ms. Michelle is so sweet and loving. We love getting to see her everyday in the hallway! AHK then moved onto the cubs with Ms. Latoya. I don't have enough space here to talk about our infinite appreciation for Ms. Latoya- she has a true love and passion for teaching and made our girl feel SO at home during a tough transition. Shout out to teaching AHK how to walk up and down the halls of daycare! Ms.Carol was a pivotal part of our daughter's development. AHK learned some of her first words, lots of sign language, and many nursery rhymes while under Ms.Carol's supervision. Ms.Carol is extremely caring and patient and truly helped AHK come out of her shell. Without Ms.Carol, AHK would not have had such a smooth transition to the Turtles classroom. Of all things, AHK loved Ms.Carol's morning hugs! AHK is a shy girl, but Ms. Dynaisha has welcomed her to the Turtles classroom with open arms. Ms. Dynaisha has already taught AHK so many things, like sitting in seat during circle time and how to identify her feelings. Additionally, AHK loves squirrel watching with Ms. Dynaisha on the playground and all the fun art projects she gets to make in class! In addition to AHK's amazing Lead Teachers, I would love to give a huge shout out to all of the assistants and floaters. They ALL know Astra and show equal as much love and patience. We are so fortunate to call KA of Delran "home" until AHK moves onto Elementary School. *cue the tears*

I highly recommend Kiddie Academy of Delran (KAD) to care for your child (children). My son started…read morewith KAD when he was 7 months old. As a new mom, I was very hesitant to send him to daycare due to all the negative news regarding daycare centers; however, KAD has exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for transparency, timely communication and caring teachers for your little one, this is the place. My son is now 2.5 years old and is thriving! He has surpassed all his " age appropriate milestones" and is such a well mannered little boy. KAD's curriculum is top notch while giving free play to the children. My son is so happy and I could not imagine removing him from this center. My daughter will be joining the center soon and I trust that KAD will care for her just the same.

Unlike many daycares, MCS allows children a lot of flexibility to learn through play. MCS staff encourage a child's individual interests in addition to providing organized instruction and activities. MCS embraced my daughter when her special needs led three other daycares to not allow her to attend. MCS staff have a lot of experience working with special needs and my daughter has thrived there for now for three years. My daughter has made many friends and looks forward to going to MCS each day. In addition to their great care MCS is located on a small farm, which means they have a very large and open playground with lots of options for outside play year round. The farm also has several animals that the children can interact with (most recently baby goats in a small pen). Overall I can't think of a better place for children to learn and grow in their own individual ways.

Little friends has been in our family history! My son's uncle actually use to go there as a 3 year…read moreold and it's pretty awesome to actually be checking my son in and that very teacher that taught my brother in law, non chalantly askes me if my son happened to be related to Chris (Uncle)!! He went to little friends 26 years ago so how comforted were we to know that even 26 years later a teacher could remember a student and blurt out his name without putting much thought into it! I have nothing but praise for the school. It's a coOp so tuition is kept at a reasonable affordable price so long as there's parent involvement when it's neeeded, which is usually once a month. The schools clean, the playground is maintained and the toys and activities are routinely moved in and out to in order to keep the kids entertained. I can't imagine sending my children to another school. We love it and the teachers as well!

The kids have fun learning, playing, crafting and going on field trips! Parents/grandparents are asked to help out on an average of once a month which is fun for all. I can't say enough about this school!!

***GO ANYWHERE BUT HERE***…read more Disturbed to know that this place treats people unfairly because of their economic status. Not to mention the staff are a bunch of phone-addicts constantly texting or on social media sharing memes/posts all while laughing out loud and the children play with no care. Not cool that the lifeguards can't take their jobs serious enough also but hey that's what you get from a place like this. Even spoke to an employee who confirmed that they don't treat everyone fair because of their economic stature, and the unfair treatment of the ones that do care about the children. No one reprimands the lazy and the ones with work etiquete have to pick up the slack, they weren't going to be around much longer because of this. Glad my kids don't go here, and if they did I would pull them out and get the news all over this place. It's 2021 people, you aren't entitled to anything, and you aren't better than anyone because of you economic stature or the color of your skin. This isn't the last you've heard of this.
