This is our 3rd year at Soresh. That should say it all! Having room for our young boys to run and…read moreplay was paramount in finding a preschool. Since the preschool is in a Temple, there is ample space to move about during the day. Children get to runaround indoors in a multi-purpose room (trikes, sports, yoga, etc) and they built a brand new beautiful playground last year (that can even be shaded from sun!). Oh...and there is a cooking class! Aside from the fantastic facility, the administration and staff are unmatchable. They truly love your child like their own. You are always greeted warmly in the morning. Teachers will get down on the child's level, make eye contact with each kid at drop off, and your children will always feel seen and heard. I never question if my children are safe and loved. Beautiful friendships are cultivated amongst children and families. There is ample opportunity to get involved in the community during school events and with weekend activities for working parents. The only downside about Soresh is that your child cannot stay forever!

Wow! I couldn't be happier with the Summer Camp at Tutor Time.

Tutor Time of West Orange has been a great school and learning environment for our daughter. Since…read morestarting, she has developed so much - learning something new every day. In fact, we are frequently surprised when she tells us a new thing she learned each day at school. The teachers and administration clearly care deeply about the students and it shows in the level of care and education they deliver. I recommend this school to any parents in the area looking for child care. I especially want to commend them on how they are handling everything during the pandemic. It's certainly no easy task to manage a school during this time. They are communicating transparently and ensuring safety is the #1 priority, all while giving the kids an "as normal as possible" school experience. I give them a big shout-out and kudos!

I love Preschool Learn Time for my son. He started in the 2 year old room in September and has…read morelearned so much! If you're looking for a prek for your little one instead of a daycare ... this is the place. They have a structured school day/meal times/nap times. His teacher has been working with him with potty training which is amazing. They even offer before and after care which was very important for me with my work schedule. Although it's small there is a little outdoor play area they go to when the weather is nice. My son always is excited when he gets to go out and play there. It's nice that they communicate with parents often. We get a calendar every month of what the kids will be learning and any important dates to remember. I love getting the weekly picture updates. There are lots of fun activities for the kids during the school day also. I like that they have enrichment programs once a week (with an outside company that comes in) you can pay extra for (my son has already done gymnastics and soccer skills). Another plus is that there is summer camp which runs similar hours and you can choose which weeks to send them (1-8 weeks). The teacher and director are always available to answer questions and get back to me quickly when I send a message or email. All of the teachers and aides are so sweet and caring towards my son and the other kids. My son never cries that he has to go to school and always tells me he had a good day and loves school. I would highly recommend Preschool learn time.

She loves her teachers and has such fun playing and learning. I would recommend this school to any parent.

My daughter started attending First Steps Academy when she was just over four months old. She's…read moreturning eight months old next week so I think we have been there long enough to write a review. I absolutely love the daycare. The staffs and teachers are always so friendly and warm. The teachers at the infant class are very patient and attend to the needs of each baby. For a first time mom, this is extremely important (it's not easy to entrust anyone with my daughter at the beginning). In addition to attend to the babies' basic needs, they also exposed the babies with arts, music and other activities to stimulate their development. Overall, we are very pleased with First Steps.

The school is brand new and is a clean, safe and orderly environment that I feel very comfortable leaving my child in. The kids love each other and the teachers. They go on daily outings to the park, library and local shops to learn about the community. My child is happy going to school every day and is constantly talking about what he's learning that week (weather, colors, seasons, letters,...) or what adventure he's been on with his friends. I also feel a sense of family from the staff as well as the other parents. This is a very sweet school that all parents of young children should know about! I highly recommend First Steps on Clinton.

I am absolutely overwhelmed with gratitude to the staff and administrators of the Middleton school…read more My daughters both attended here and now just one remains. The children here never have to worry about being mistreated in any way. The teachers treat these children as if they were their very own and you can really feel the love and concern that they have for each of them. I'm very particular about whom I let watch my daughters. However, I've never had any reason or cause for concern with this school (and that's saying a lot). When my youngest used to fall out in tears as we were dropping her off, there was Mrs. Chambers (who then taught pre-K) who would immediately pick her up and hugged on her reassure her that everything would be OK. All of the teachers act the same way and the children who attend here are very blessed to have people that truly care and don't treat them like it's just a job. I'm probably going to cry when we do finally have to put our daughter in another school (only because she's either too old or we've moved to another area) Just like the kids, I have been spoiled by this school. It's so comforting to drop off your children and not have to worry about them during the day. I highly recommend the school to anyone in that find it hard to trust people to watch your children. That was me and The Middleton School has completely exceeded all of my expectations. I cannot recommend this school enough. Most Sincerely, Lethia Wooten P.S. One of the staff, Miss Trina is one of the friendliest people on the planet. I have never, ever, ever, (Ever!!!) seen her in a bad mood. She is uber friendly and treats every like like a VIP. My daughter won't leave without hugging her neck! And Ms. Stevens runs that front office with a sense of professionalism that is truly refreshing. Speaking to her always leaves me with a feeling that she has things thoroughly under control (and for a Parent that feeling is GOLDEN). I really love this school. 2.5 years and I've never had a bad experience.

When we were exploring local options, we knew our decision would be based on where we felt he would be 1) safe, 2) healthy and 3) loved. Everywhere we toured, we felt like he'd be safe and healthy. What set Two By Two apart was that we felt like he'd would be cared for by professionals who created genuine, authentic connections - as aunties, as kin. He was so little and our care priorities were more about him feeling seen, heard and addressed. Now that he's approaching Kindergarten, he's getting the same care while also getting support with socialization, learning emotional regulation, and the basics of academics (letter and number recognition, phonics). He has a group of close friends, uses feeling statements and is reading sight words and writing his name. All huge wins without robotic structure or impersonal instruction- which while inevitable in our school systems can wait until the elementary years. Two By Two continues to make progress in communication, family engagement and facilities. We've seen growth here and have been grateful for their request for feedback and impressed to see it implemented. Considering our care priorities and the experience that our son and we have had here, we will continue to recommend Two By Two to our neighbors and friends.

The kids have lots of time for play, both in the sunny classrooms with views of the river, and in their two outdoor playgrounds and indoor gym. Although the school is play-based, they also do a lot of learning through play! I've been amazed at how my son's writing ability has grown this year. The specials (library, art, music, and dance) are also a real highlight of the Weekday School. My son has been bringing home amazing art projects, and showing us the songs and dances that he learned at school. Most importantly, the teachers are so experienced and caring. They really get to know each child as an individual, and my son has bonded very strongly with his teachers. Ms. Daina, the director, is incredibly warm, dedicated, and accessible. She knows all the children, is involved on a day-to-day level, and provides a lot of guidance for the kindergarten application process. We have had a wonderful experience with the Weekday School.
