    I have had my kids at two places for care before and after school in south Jersey, this being the…read moresecond. The staff here is polite and accommodating. The cost is very reasonable. However, I am disappointed in the overall experience we had with my son. From the get go, we told the director he had a few developmental delays , one of which was late to potty train. He was three when he started, and there were at least two classes for kids his age. We were assured he would be placed with kids of similar needs. I learned a few weeks in that this was not the case, as one of his afternoon teachers made a comment about how "everyone else in his class is trained". Once we had begun the process of training with him a few months later, both at home and with the support of his public preschool teacher and IEP, he had frequent accidents at Under the Sun. The Director questioned whether the preschool teacher was lying to me about whether he was going on the toilet at school. Then I was told by the Director that my son had to be put in pull ups instead of the underwear that we were working so hard to get him used to because "there are too many other children in his class and to clean him up takes one of the teachers away from all the other kids." Again, didn't think he would be the only one In this situation! Finally, when the training was taking a longer time than optimal, the Director asked me if I was sure if speech was the only problem he had been diagnosed with. As a parent, one can imagine how this broke my heart. My son Is quiet and shy when he first meets new people, I get it. However I was repeatedly told by the afternoon care team that he doesn't speak and they "are really frustrated." Yet, when we put him on a different summer program at a nearby facility, he is a different kid. He is bubbly, talks constantly to everyone, including the teachers, and is overall just so much happier. I was quite disappointed at the fact that it did not seem like the morning and afternoon teachers did not communicate with each other. When I would pick him up in the afternoon, that staff would not know what my husband had brought in or discussed with the morning staff. This was frustrating. I was not present during the day to fully take in his entire experience, and I know he was fed, changed when soiled about 80% of the time, and safely put on and taken off the bus by UTS. However, these other experiences just put a very sour taste in my mouth and I was relieved to be able to take both kids out of this center at the end of the school year.

The center was very accommodating and welcoming with new children entering into classrooms mid-year. They helped my sons feel supported and comforted and had safety protocols in place to make us feel safe bringing our children there. They have both learned so much and have made friends. They even potty trained my two year old! They had a fun and socially distanced Trunk of Treat for Halloween and also just got an outdoor playground upgrade that my boys are so excited about. The teachers are dedicated and give thoughtful feedback during conferences. The lesson plans are creative and include lots of hands on activities. I would highly recommend this school to parents looking for a positive and safe daycare experience.

    UPDATE THEYVE DELETED MY REVIEW SO IM POSTING AGAIN…read more My son has been in daycare since 2 years old, never with any issues besides when he first started of course. When we moved to NJ he went to school as well in swedesboro. When we moved to deptford and transferred him to tutor time. Within a month, Hr would cry every morning, begging and pleading not to go to school. " I don't like school" "please I don't wanna go" etc. My husband and I just put it off because we just thought he was a normal 3 year old that didn't like going to school. He then would act out when we got home, terrible attitude, crying, hitting, it was almost unbearable. We talked to someone at the center and they mentioned how he wouldn't nap. Of course I know my child and I figured that could be a factor but they immediately dismissed any other concern. Fast forward a couple of months of literally heartache before and after school, Dmy husband gets a TEXT from his assistant teacher, saying she's quitting and walking out and she cares so much about our that she's worried about his safety because our son was being mistreated and she thought we should know. My husband immediately went to the school and talked to her, apparently two teachers were caught being high while "teaching" have been caught hitting children, falls asleep while watching kids and that they would purposely send our son home with sh*t in his UNDERWEAR just to inconvenience My husband and I because we were one of the last ones to pick him up for the day. I noticed on the cameras that this one teacher was ALWAYs sitting on her phone or the tablet they had. When my husband confronted the director she blew him off and offered half off tuition. My heart literally broke because our son was trying to tell us the best he could but he didn't know how. He's been at the learning experience ever since and has since never gave any issues going to school like he did before.

    I am sharing our experience to help other families make an informed decision. While Ms. Jenn does…read moreappear to be a kind person, it seemed that she was overwhelmed and trying to manage the daycare on her own, which ultimately impacted the quality of care. The business itself felt unorganized and outdated. At the time, credit cards were not accepted, receipts were not provided in a timely manner, and much of the paperwork appeared to be reused from many years ago. Overall, the operation did not feel current or well-managed. My child attended for only a short period of time, yet consistently had meltdowns when it was time to go. At home, my child shared that most of the day was spent sitting and that when they cried, they were yelled at to stop. This was very concerning to hear. Years later, when we drive past Little Angels Day Care, my child still reacts strongly and says they do not want to go to that school. Even after reassurance that they would never return and that their time there was brief, my child will say, "Good, because I didn't like it. All we would do is sit." It is troubling that such a short experience left a lasting impression. Regarding meals, while I acknowledge that Ms. Jenn encouraged my picky eater to try new foods and even shared a video, my child appeared visibly sad and uncomfortable while eating, and it felt forced. Parents were not allowed to pack lunches, and I often wondered how meals were prepared while only one adult was present. There are many cameras throughout the space, which could be a positive feature. However, it often felt as though they were used to anticipate parent arrivals. Each time I arrived, all of the children were suddenly gathered around the same train table, and I rarely observed happy or engaged expressions. Additionally, the curriculum that was communicated did not seem to be followed. During the entire time my child attended, I received only one completed craft. It took me a long time to write this review because I genuinely wish Ms. Jenn well. However, I remain deeply concerned that children are still being cared for in this setting. I am particularly worried about the mental and emotional well-being of the children who attend. I strongly encourage families to carefully consider other daycare options, even if they cost a bit more. In this case, you truly get what you pay for.

She is attentive to our little ones needs, goes above and beyond for the children, and my toddler is absolutely THRIVING in this environment. With Little Angels, my little angel always has a good day. When I'm on the go for work and business, I can count on Little Angels to make sure my little is not on my worry list, and her flexible hours don't leave me feeling stuck if I hit a snag of traffic. I love that the class size is small to be able to dedicate attention to each of the childrens needs while still promoting socialization among different ages. I'm grateful to have her in our education corner.
