My son just started attending school there this week but the process of getting him enrolled was…read morenice and easy. I did not feel pressured to attend. Mr. David knew that I was just shopping around but his first impression from the tour had me drawen in to attend his establishment! He has been the owner for the past 27 years and I see now why he is still in business. He loves everyone of these children like they are his own and it is a sweet moment to know that someone loves your children as much as the parents! I feel great knowing that my child is in safe hands while I am at work and I can come back and pick him up!! A SMALL WORLD PRESCHOOL I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANY PARENT LOOKING TO ENROLL THEIR CHILD OR CHILDREN IN PRESCHOOL!! MR. David I wish you 27 more years of business you are amazing. Your staff is just as amazing as you and I thank you and your staff for making my son and I feel comfortable and welcomed from day one!!!

It is a well established fact that a toddler who goes to the daycare for the first time takes a few…read moreweeks to adjust. Keeping that in mind we purchased the flexi pass at tutor time edison so that we could acclimatize our kid to the daycare. The flexi pass was purchased for one week during the holiday season since we wanted to start the full time care from new year and we thought we'll have the kid spend a few hours daily and pick him up so that he gradually adjusts. Day 1 and we get a call from The director within an hour saying your kid is screaming and he might wake up the other kids so we have him at the reception, pick him up. I mean c'mmon u r trained teachers and thats ur job. He is a kid after all. He is not causing any harm or damage that u r calling me to pick him up within 50 mins ! If u cant handle the kid then wats the point of running a child care facility. Needless to say i knew they were incompetent and asked for my money back,to which they totally refused! Now if ur teachers refuse to look after my kid why in God's name shud i pay u for the remaining days???! This place is such a scam! Pls invest some time in finding a better place for ur child .

Long Review Alert! I had high expectations from this Daycare…read morewhen i did the tour and read all the great reviews, but I was highly disappointed. We picked this daycare even though it was farther away from our home. To give some background, My daughter was 18 months when we enrolled her in this school. She was in another daycare since she was 7 months and the only reason we had to switch was because we moved to Edison. We loved her previous daycare. 1) At little treasures my daughter took so long to adjust. Every morning she wouldn't want to go there and was so clingy in the evening when she returned home. She was in Penguins classroom. 2) I felt the overall atmosphere in LT was not warm and non-welcoming.We had to drop her at around 7:45am when none of her class teachers were there. So she had to be dropped off in another classroom with another teacher who was least concerned about her. She wouldn't bother to say Hi to us or our daughter or welcome her any way. Some days she would completely ignore us . Drop offs were very unpleasant. When we raised our concern to the director, she said someone was going to take a look.Of course that never happened. I don't know how they do Quality control for such issues. 3) Timings of the regular teachers were such that we could never catch them if we were dropping and picking up outside 9-6pm window. During those hours it was only the part time teachers who had no clue if you ask them any question about your child. It created such a disconnect for us with her class teachers. So only way to communicate was to call them all the time for any major/minor question. Because otherwise we never met them in person. LT could provide better coverage for parents who because of their work schedule don't get to meet the main teachers. 4)A few times when I did a late drop off so i can meet her teachers (and reach my work late as well), I noticed that my daughter didn't wanted to go to her lead teacher who has been with her for couple of months. With Little kids It is very simple to tell who they like and who they don't. I don't think there was any attempt made to bond with my daughter. 5) Daily reports were hand scribbled with very minimum information of what the child ate during meal time. If I can find, I will post a picture of one of the reports. Imagine first we don't get to meet her teachers regularly and the only way we are relying to get some info is via the daily reports which were nearly useless. Once I requested her teacher to write more descriptive report including if she had milk (incase she did not eat food). I was told that for kids of her age (18 months), focus should be more on the food then milk so they never gave us that info. 6) LT is extremely structured that makes the teachers here more concerned about following the schedule and intense curriculum. The last meal/snack time was 3:30pm, and by the time i arrived my daughter would be so hungry and screaming for Milk. Nothing is offered to the child after the last meal because that is not in the schedule. It seems like the teachers are overworked. The type of words that she learned quickly and repeated at home speaks a lot- 'Stop It' 'Go Sit Down' 'Listen to me' 7)Also they would take the kids outside even in cold weather and told us to send appropriate clothing to bundle up or keep the child home if you don't want them to go outside. I don't understand How would the teachers keep the child bundled up who keeps taking off her hat or shoes or mittens even when outside. Overall I feel my child never bonded well with her teachers during the 5 months. Nobody really cared if she didn't come to the school one of the days or it was her last day at the school. Little kids need just a bit more love when they are away from their parents to help them cope emotionally. It was this thing which was really missing at LT. I am not sure about other classrooms or other teachers but our experience with this specific class was not great. The only positive side was state of art facility which is kept very clean and a structured curriculum . I wish I had decided against it so that my daughter wouldn't have gone through another change in 5 months. I wouldn't recommend this center to any of my friends.

In my opinion, this day care is THE BEST DAY CARE in town (and neighboring towns). Let me start off…read moreby 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 (ie. removing the child from the space, talking to them, explaining why, etc.). They are kind and patient, they teach, 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 behavior that was not her normal behavior. I believe this was because we just changed daycares and in parallel I was transitioning her into her own room / bed. Johana sat me down and 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.

We pulled our 3-year-old son out of Primrose School of North Edison after witnessing serious issues…read morewith how children were treated. He cried most mornings before school and begged us not to go. We later saw Ms. Laisha and Ms. Wessal yelling at toddlers--aggressive, loud, and completely inappropriate. One of them even physically shoved our son in front of us. We raised our concerns with the franchise owners, Kinjal Parekh and Tina Patel, and were told we were "too picky." Their response wasn't to investigate or support our child--it was to suggest we leave. The front office staff, Ms. Ada and Ms. Kathryn, offered vague responses and no follow-through. We asked for documentation and staff qualifications and were met with deflection or silence. Other parents have had similar experiences--and some were asked to sign nondisclosure agreements. That should alarm anyone considering this school. We filed a complaint with the state and removed our child immediately. He still talks about the fear he felt in that classroom. This school failed our family. Please think twice before sending your child here.

I saw this one and another close by, so I had my mother visit before I moved up. This was my mother's choice and when I talked to the owner, this was my choice as well. The owner, Ms. Cheryl, made me feel so welcome and I just knew she would take care of my son like her own. You could feel the love oozing out of her. She's also a mother and knows what mothers feel. She's done a great job of keeping me abreast of the daily activities the kids' are doing and what they're learning. Over the past year, I've seen her bend over backwards for these little kids and even the parents at times. My son can now count beyond measures, write his name and is reading a few words. He's made some great friends and loves his teachers. It's tucked away from the road and attached to a church. This also made me feel good because it's enclosed and the kids have their own gated play area. If you want to feel the love and know your kid(s) are being nurtured, being them here.

A wonderful daycare center with a family feel and truly caring teachers…read more If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! The owner Miss Cheryl was a God-send to us when we took in two foster children (two and three years old) this past year. Miss Cheryl was one of the few constants for our beautiful foster children during a time of a lot of uncertainty and instability in their lives. She also became a great support and friend to us as their foster parents. Miss Cheryl works hard to create a warm and welcoming daycare where every child is valued and loved. She loves all of the children in her care so well, and they love her! We would highly recommend Precious Gifts Daycare to anyone, and especially foster parents, as Miss Cheryl has a wealth of experience working with foster children.

There are many, many other more professional and clean child care centers throughout Piscataway and you really need to do your research before writing that check to this center.

I can't express enough how important it is to research the facility that will ultimately care for your child, nothing is more important than your baby (ies).
