All of that is great but being a neuroscientist, I wanted my children to learn and socialize properly. This schools keeps the kids engaged in many educational activities, while also giving loving care, developing their interpersonal skills, manners, and having fun with music and art. I can't tell you how many art projects come home and all the great pictures we see on line. The children learn sign language to help them communicate at a young age and have outdoor play and activities. My son is 2 1/2 and knows all the alphabet, counts to 25, recognizes his name, knows the sounds of most letters and words they begin with. Which demonstrates the amazing commitment by the teachers and approach the school takes to not only care for the children but, nurture and develop them. Highly recommended.

My son at only 2 1/2 years of age can speak and hold conversations with adults, knows his alphabet, can count, can do simple addition, can spell 3 letter words, knows patterns and plays well with other children.

Parents get together with to have play dates, do outdoor activities etc. Best school choice I could have made for my son.

I transferred my son to Kangaroo Kids from another daycare and it was the biggest mistake I have…read moreever made. My son had a terrible experience in the preschool class at Kangaroo Kids. High teacher turnover, bullying, and lacking curriculum are some of the things my son experienced at this daycare. After two months of attending Kangaroo Kids, two of the three teachers (including the lead teacher) in his classroom left within a month from each other. After they left, there were constant changes in the staff in his classroom. In addition to the constant changes in the classroom, he was verbally and physically abused by another kid. However, I was never notified by the school of the abuse or given a single incident report. Concerns about this other child's behavior were not addressed by the administration, despite it being known that this child was problematic. The bullying and constant changes of teachers in the classroom caused my son to have tremendous stress which eventually led him to stop talking in school. He would cry every morning before going to school. Another complaint I have about this school is the curriculum. I enrolled him at this school because I was sold on their foreign language program. After he was enrolled, I found out that there was no Spanish or Chinese class. Had I known this in the beginning I would not have enrolled him in this school. After 4 months there, I had to transfer him to another daycare. I wish my son had never gone to Kangaroo Kids.

Look into them at your own risk, but for a fee equal to a mortgage, there's not alot of flexibility.

As a first time parent, I was very nervous sending my daughter to daycare, but the teachers were wonderful with her and so patient and reassuring with me. The directors and staff are also very accommodating of the needs of the parents and are more than willing to work with you if you need help. My daughter has not only been well cared for, but she has also learned so much. The teachers are so caring, compassionate and creative. Weekly lesson plans are sent out so you know the theme of the week and all the activities they will be doing, which range from reading, music, science, sensory bins, practicing fine/gross motor skills, playing pretend, nature walks etc. The activities are just so creative and engaging for the kids. For example, today my daughter made a fire truck cookie using graham crackers, icing and Oreos. They also have someone come in and do a music class with the kids twice a month and yoga twice a month. There are also other additional optional programs offered such as dance, sports, and art. The enrichment activities are amazing, such as having visits from fire fighters, police officers, dentists, Santa as well as the teddy bear clinic, pony rides and at Halloween, a trunk or treat. They even offer a free evening event for families at Christmas time all Polar Express themed, with various activities and pictures with Santa. Summer camp is also incredible with weekly splash days on the playground, princess balls, dinosaur shows, bubble shows, petting zoo and field trips for the older kids. My daughter has picked up so much so quickly, all because of the varied experiences/activities they have provided for her. Choosing Crawlers to Scholars has been the best decision my husband and I could have made. We truly feel like we hit the lottery with this daycare.

Write this review as an update to my original month ago, it is a continued excellent experience as…read moremember here as our family continues to come for twice a week for 48 weeks a year. Every aspect from staff to facilities to programming to to member administration have all been tops and perfect. They have all the skills, experience and tools with which to carry out their mission realized every hour of every day. It is such an important instrumental part of the community and we are so lucky to have their organized support therein. First the swimming: the aquatics program is infamously strong for every person of every skill from limited abilities all the way through Master swimmers with a few Olympians along the way. But really it is the everyday swimmer who comes and enjoys this experience with others simply and quietly that makes the quiet community so happy. Aquatics instruction can be variable but is generally very good. As always, the key is communication with the instructor and student both. They are every type of instruction in every type of format for every type of swimmer. There are three pools: warm, less warm, and cool (for the athletic types). If it's always wonderful for having very shallow, one for splash padding and acclimation as well as a infrequently open slide (seemingly just 30 minutes each Friday). Gym is extremely well equipped with every imaginable type of equipment and then some all in good quantities and state of repair. Shout out to the janitorial staff who do the unseen work of keeping everything as great, clean and sanitary as it needs to be. Thank you also to the maintenance and and engineering staff and supporting contractors for keeping his facility as good as we always hope it to be. The front desk does all welcoming individually with the card scans as well as having the green green rings for the under 12 swimmers to indicate they have passed the deep swim test. Member services are complete. The staff is knowledgeable, aided by how the IT system can keep up with all the requests. That system is online and self-service so takes care of most of your needs. Parking is always platiful with a vast space which has never run out of parking even during the annual car show days which takes more than half the lot. The lot is also used for a large number of community events so be sure to watch out for them as some are free to the public, not even only members. Life is better with the GSCYMCAband especially the Somerset Hills location.
