Our daughter's first day at daycare started off with promise--we received updates throughout the…read moreday and felt hopeful about our choice. Unfortunately, that feeling changed completely at pickup. When we arrived, we walked to her classroom and noticed the children were outside on the toddler playground, with the door propped open by a foam block. As we approached, we witnessed a teacher forcefully grab another child by the arm. That moment immediately raised serious concerns. We went outside right away to find our daughter. The staff member supervising the group was not her usual teacher. The supervising staff member appeared to be very overwhelmed watching the young children. When I located her among the other children, her face was very red and there was a visible mark on her arm that resembled a handprint. I picked her up and we left immediately. Before leaving, I stopped at the director's office to report what we had seen. I was told there are no cameras covering the outdoor area. What a huge liability! I requested a refund and we will not be returning. This experience was deeply upsetting, and I would strongly urge other parents to carefully consider their options.

So, here's my story…read more March of 2021, we registered to reserve a spot for our daughter to attend. We let the ladies at Chesterbrook know that we were looking to move, and made sure to verify that our deposit would be refundable should we move out of the area. A few months later, we did wind up moving too far to make Chesterbrook a viable option, and began the process of having our money returned to us. Fast forward to March of 2022, and the quest continues. We have called FOURTEEN TIMES, spoken to a dizzying amount of "Laurens" and even had the one person that was handling our request go on maternity leave. Think about that; the person that was supposed to see to our refund had time to get pregnant, began maternity leave, and our money is still not refunded. I have been told countless times that I will receive a phone call. I usually don't. I have called their parent company, Spring Education Group, who have ALSO ignored my voice messages. You can't leave a voice message at Chesterbrook, as their mailbox is full. We have been patient, polite, understanding and calm through this whole ordeal. The ladies at Chesterbrook are always very nice and respectful when we do get to interact with them, but it's obvious that once they have your money, you're no longer a priority. The school itself seemed pretty old and a bit worn when we took our tour, but because the staff seemed so pleasant, we decided to make sure we reserved a spot. (Another thing they were a hard sell on.....they made sure to impress upon us that we should reserve immediately, or the spots would be gone. Red flag.) If I had known communication would be so rough, I never would have signed up. All I want is my refund. My daughter never set foot in their school, yet they are holding on to almost $500 of my money.

My child had a positive experience with his teachers, and I was happy with the change I saw within him only after a few weeks. My issue with Future Scholars is not the teachers or program, but the owner of the center. I once over heard the owner complaining about a client's unpaid bill in the school's kitchen and it really made me rethink the center my child was attending. Outstanding bills should be paid, but the way he spoke about it really made my decision to leave clear. It really is such a shame, I would consider recommending this center; if it were being run by someone with more respect and real profesionalism.

Ken's inexperience shines if any form of an issue arises. Kens inability to retain his clients or "teachers" is a testament to his inability to properly run a business. Not to mention he is a complete loose canon (Not the kind of guy you want your kids around) The staff is beyond inept. His director Katherine Meyers is new and has no clue what shes doing. The staff is basically there to put on a show. They maintain a facade of education while parents are pick up and dropping off. This is where the education begins and ends. When there are multiple ELC's with accredited teachers with post secondary education degrees, why would anyone want to pay a comparable price to this place? Do yourself a favor and don't even consider Future Scholars in Hainesport NJ! Also, dont be fooled by their one of the best 2012 ratings for best of South Jersey. The staff and the owner submitted multiple votes for their own business. This certainly was not a result of their business acumen or a result of their client bases opinion. The problem is, they believe you need them more they need you once your in the door. This could not be further from the truth! Just ask anyone in the Mount Laurel Hainesport area what they think of Future Scholars. Now that Susan (former director) is gone and Ken and Katherine are running the place, they are doing a great job running it into the ground! Stay away

Prior to the birth of our oldest child, we searched up and down route 38 and 130 for daycares that we would feel comfortable leaving her. What we found at Wee Kids was so much more.

Our daughter is now 2.5 and she has learned her ABCs, colors numbers AND manners (to name a few). She is constantly being challenged to learn and grow into strong, independent child. When we found out we would be having another child, we automatically knew he would be following his sister there. We continue to be happy with our decision and there is nothing more fulfilling than seeing my children thrive in this environment. The children are like family to the teachers and staff.
