    My 17m toddler started with daycare about 3 months now. Yes he's gotten sick like 5 times, but he's…read morealso the type that likes putting everything in his mouth still. It also took about 2-3 weeks before he adjusted and stopped crying at drop off, but now he seems like quite the happy camper. We have 10 daycares in a 3mile radius. I went through a very through analysis, weighing pros and cons of my top 6 picks, and TLE somerset came out on top. If you want to nerd out, details here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WQ-ovFOmSkIKbl0gHo7dVcdvA3TnhRMNagCTfrsFbms/edit?usp=drivesdk The biggest pros were: snacks/lunches included (because ain't got time for packing food), very flexible schedule (part time or full time or whenever pickup and dropoff), long term staff and teacher that seem to really like kids, and reasonable costs. In terms of education, no idea how much a little person with the attention span of a goldfish can really learn, but he is constantly surprising me with words and hand signals that I know I never had the patience to teach. He's on to colors and counting now. He also roars when he sees dinosaurs. A few weeks ago, the center called to let us know about a mysterious bump on his head, and that they're concerned and will keep an eye on it. It turned out to be just a small mosquito bite he got from the night before (that I already knew about), but it showed that they do pay attention to the little things. Both parents and kiddo are happy with the experience here so far! Now if they could do something about the traffic on Easton Ave... that would be great =)

    My 22 month daughter loves going to school at TLE Somerset, she's been attending 5 days a week…read moresince she was 5 months old. Heather, the Director, and staff treat us like family. We've been told over and over by friends and family in the early childhood education field that our daughter is thriving. Her social and learning skills are advanced but learning is never forced. We're very happy with TLE.

    Our family was defrauded by Cedar Hill Prep…read more We were promised small class sizes and first-class facilities. When our child started school, it was apparent that they had repurposed an old storage room, and that the student:teacher ratio was far worse than advertised. When we complained about the state of the classroom, rather than do the right thing and hire additional staff, the school administration expelled our child from the school on zero days' notice, despite having no documented behavioral or academic issues of any kind. During the expulsion meeting, the administration admitted to being unable to hire additional staff and _intentionally_ overbooking the class sizes during registration. The founder of this school is obsessed with metrics. If your child represents a threat to one of those metrics (be it student-teacher ratio, standardized test scores, etc.) then they will absolutely throw your child under the bus to make the school look better. Be warned.

    In a nutshell, what is it that CHP provides over public schools or other private schools:…read more 1. Smaller class sizes 2. Passionate teachers - who care about your kids and how they learn 3. Smaller school means that it has a "family" feel, there is always someone watching over your kids 4. Enough extra curricular activities 5. They have amazing Debate and Robotics Teams and often win championships 6. The fees are relatively low and you see the money utilized for your kids 7. Love the way they do the sports - all kids participate and enjoy 8. Kids love their classes - that is big! you get the drift O yeah - it is a national blue ribbon school - if that helps

    My daughter thrived here at first and I loved it. But at the end when she came home every day…read moresaying the teachers were being mean, yelling at, and picking on her, my gut told me she needs to be somewhere else. It started when she came home with diaper rashes so bad I could not touch her to clean her or put her in her bath water on separate occasions. They were told several times she was super sensitive down there and it only takes a second to look. Then it was the call to the Division of Child and Family Services because she had a stain on her shirt and a leaf or two in her hair. Because I missed the memo that playing outside with your child in the morning instead of shoving a screen in their face was wrong. Then it was the push to get her evaluated for every little problem. She is an only child, so she was a little late to talking but once she started, she has not stopped LOL. But there was no need for a speech evaluation and I told them that but I did it anyway because I want to do whatever will help my child grow and thrive. They nearly laughed at the end of the evaluation because it was pretty much a waste of their time, but whatever. Then it was them saying they will help with potty training and telling me every day she wasn't asking or going potty at all. And that her behavior was "out of control" and not listening to them even though on two separate occasions she came home with bite marks from another student. My daughter can be a handful, there is no denying that. Then it was them "removing" her after giving me three weeks to change a 3 year old behavior. She is not somewhere else and OH MY GOD she is miraculously using the potty, listening to the teachers, playing with the other children. It was not my child that needs to be evaluated in this situation, maybe it's their teachers or methods.

    We have had our son in the learning experience for over a year in the infant room and Toddler room…read more We are extremely satisfied with the wonderful teachers and facility. The owner is passionate about child development and the curriculum fosters a happy day of learning while maintaining a habitual routine that helps all students. The facility is state of the art and very clean, I don't want to jinx myself but my son has never been sick in the twelve months he has attended. The teachers and administrative staff are on the ball with keeping the center safe and clean. Most importantly, my son is smiling and playing everytime I pick him up, which is a testament to the environment of the center. Thank you TLE!

    Unfortunately not a fit. They have unrealistic expectations for *developing* toddlers from…read moredifferent perspectives. We sadly experienced a major swing in behavior but second guessed the fact that this center was a good placement based on a new building, convenient location and a well known name.

    Our daughter was at Goddard for several years, up until the end of Pre-k. The teachers are…read moreamazing, but management is another story. This school went through directors like candy. I lost track of how many directors there were in the years my daughter was there. My daughter was recently diagnosed with ADHD and PTSD from an incident at the school. She started acting out in class and we were trying to get help with a doctor, however, our doctor wanted detailed written reports of each incident so she could pinpoint what was triggering the behavior. The owner kept promising reports, which are pretty standard and were always provided by the previous owners, but we never saw a single written report. With little to no warning, our daughter was suddenly expelled at the end of the school year. Since it was so late in the year, we were unable to find accommodations for her for the summer and my husband lost business due to having to care for her. The owner did not follow any of the protocol written in the expulsion guidelines. She even wrote that we were given written reports by our daughter's teachers in the expulsion letter, which was a lie. I understand our daughter was acting out in class, but we should have been given formal warnings and written reports of the incidents. The owner had no sympathy. I also voiced my concern as my daughter was being hit, which I believe was the trigger for her behavior. I was met with aggravation and defensiveness, and nothing was done about it. We went to a birthday party about a week or two after the expulsion, which included mostly kids from this school, and our daughter was clearly the one being bullied by a certain child during the party. We believe there is more to the story that was not revealed to us. In conclusion, if your child needs any extra attention or has any type of special needs, this is not the place for your child.
