Looking for a school that my daughter can go to wasn't an easy process, but when I took a tour at…read moreLightbridge Academy, my mind was made up. I found the staff to be very pleasant and accommodating, especially with their hours, the enrollment process to be easy, and the security that is set up put my mind at ease. When my daughter started, it was hard on her, but the teachers were truly amazing. They were caring, understanding, patient, and hands-on.

Can not say enough good things about this Lightbridge Academy. My son is now 2 years old and has…read morebeen going there since he was 10 months old. All the teachers are so professional and caring. My son comes home all the time with new words and counting higher and even learns sign language. Always clean and such a great community, where everyone knows my sons name. The active camera access and the constant pictures being sent to you throughout the day of your children is just icing on the cake.

Our experience at The Learning Experience in Livingston was deeply disappointing and harmful to our…read moreson. From the beginning, it felt as though the administration attempted to force our child into a rigid, cookie-cutter mold rather than approaching him as an individual. In the 90 days we were enrolled, the concerns raised often felt excessive and out of proportion for a typical four-year-old. During his time there, our son was subjected to bullying and unkind behavior from classmates, which was not adequately addressed. He experienced daily emotional meltdowns, asked to be picked him up early every day, and grew to hate going to school altogether. He expressed feeling that the administration and staff did not like him, which was heartbreaking to hear from a child so young. Communication with us was overwhelmingly negative. Not once did a staff member share something positive about our son, despite him being described by multiple childcare professionals we trust as exhibiting entirely age-appropriate behavior. We received near-daily reports of issues that felt outlandish and unnecessarily alarming. Additionally, very few staff members used positive reinforcement or supportive intonation when speaking to him. Class sizes were extremely large, up to 25 children in his class! Perhaps most troubling was the inconsistency and insensitivity in communication. While staff spoke one way to us in person, they sent urgent-toned emails about our son during two major life events for our family, including one email sent just two days before our wedding, framing matters as emergencies when they were not. Early childhood education should be rooted in patience, compassion, and developmental understanding. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this location.

I will start with the owners, I think. NEVER have I seen owners be so involved within the facility setting as I see here. I am not talking about seeing their faces once in a blue, they are there every day!! They know the parents and children by name, they know what is going on at all times within the facility and that is a big deal for me. They are involved with the children's mile stones as well which is so heart warming to me. They also assist in the classrooms when assistance is needed. They do not hesitate to jump in to assist their staff!!! Another big deal for me. Now lets talk about the staff. From the Director, Receptionist, to the classroom staff I love them all!!! They are all welcoming and knowledgeable. Even the classrooms my son is not apart of greet my son by his first name and are pleasant to interact with. In my son's class-Miss Crystal, Miss Maria, Miss Ola, Miss Clementina thank you for caring for my son as if he was your own, it really makes me feel at peace when I am at work to know he has awesome teachers as yourself taking care of him. it makes me so happy when I see my son interact in a positive, happy way with all of you. I consider you all as extended family at Kinder Kastle as you have been a major part of all my son's milestones and growth. This daycare also keeps track of the milestones and helps to identify when your child may be eligible to transition to the next class. I love that the infants are not mixed in classrooms with active walking babies. There are babies who are "trying" to take 1 step or 2 but definitely not active walkers around little immobile people. Big plus for us moms who are concerned of the different baby levels mixed into a classroom together. All areas are kept very clean especially the baby changing station. It does not smell like a toilet when you walk into the baby classrooms, another plus for me. I had my son in another daycare which smelled like a old nursing home when you walked in-poop and urine smells if you need a visual-sorry! Another favorite of mine who may go unnoticed, under the radar is Miss Betty. Thank you for feeding our children, I can't imagine the task of getting that many little meals together. Jorge loves the Swedish meatballs and mashed potatoes!! Trust me I have this much positive to say due to an experience at Tutor Time when my son was thankfully only there for a month until Kinder Kastle opened, so I know the difference of a daycare that will make us moms feel satisfied and at peace. I will leave it at that since this review is supposed to be something for Kinder Kastle and not about another daycare. I also want to say that in this daycare, one of things I appreciate is their strict illness policy. If your child is ill and you are cleared to bring your child back, your note from the physician must specify "not contagious". Makes sense right? I wouldn't want a child coming back in from having something contagious and the parent brought them back in just because, especially when you are paying for services. It would be courteous to the other parents, children and staff to simply ask your physician to specify "not contagious". If you have a physician who isn't able to simply add a comment as simple as that for proper documentation purposes, then maybe you need another physican-just saying! :) Again, thank you all for all you do for my family and I. I couldn't be more pleased to have my child there. The Gonzalez family.

My daughter attended this daycare for 4 days (Clifton location). This daycare is very unorganized,…read morethe caregivers are not professional and don't seem to be experienced, some don't seem to love kids or just persons that you can trust with your kids specially with infants. They make you fill out so many forms about your babies schedule and instructions to just do whatever they want, feed them when they want as well as changing their diapers. They would put products on my baby's skin without my authorization. If you call during the day to see how your child is doing, they would get annoyed and give you attitude. All they want is money, don't let them trick you with the security systems and nice daycare, they do not care about the kids. All of the staff look unhappy and not wanting to do their jobs. I DO NOT recommend this daycare to NO one. Don't trust them specially with vulnerable infants. My experience was awful, I gave them time to put their shit together and spoke to everyone, even the director, to avoid writing this review and having to switch daycare. I think I trusted this facility way too much and had very high expectations, this is why now I'm so disappointed. My baby's first day when I picked up my 3mon old baby her pants were all wet of pee, my daughter was left alone in a corner awake in a swing far away from the other kids and unattended by the teachers, when I grabbed her she was freezing, the air conditioner was too low so when I carried her she was shaking, she was only given 2 bottles of milk during the full 8 hours that she was there (my baby eats a lot) I told them her eat schedule and wrote everything down on a form they provided, she usually eats every 2 hours and even before. When I saw her pants wet and felt how cold she was I asked the teacher (Jayda/Jayra whatever her name is) her answer was "well I just changed her diaper!" (with a nasty attitude) I replied by showing her my baby's pants so she can notice the wetness on it (she never made eye contact) she proceed with grabbing a tablet and slamming it in front of me to show the times she was supposedly changed but that doesn't really means she was changed on time cuz she can document what ever she wants on there and not necessarily be done. I was so irritated that I did not react any other way then just grab my baby and leave the center with my eyes full of tears. After I got home I called and spoke to the manager (Ashley I believe is her name) the director (Kimberly) was also aware, supposedly everything was gonna change but I was already concerned about my daughters safety and treatment. The next day that teacher (Jayda/Jayra) wasn't in my baby's classroom but the teachers there were still not following my baby's schedule, they were not giving the baby her bottles on time, they would always put the excuse that baby was sleeping. I also took my baby some sleepers so she can stay warm in her classroom since it was so cold in there but they would take it off and lose her socks.The third day when I went to drop her off, I went in the classroom and I waited almost 10 min for the teacher to go inside the classroom to take my baby so I can rush to work but she was too busy gossiping with another teacher in another classroom. Every time I use to go drop her off or picked her up, there was a different teacher which didn't know anything about the instructions I had gave to the previous teacher, their communication skills were horrible. This is not a place to trust, it's full of unprofessional and poorly trained staff that are only there for a paycheck and not necessarily because they like kids.
