"I think the school needs a director as it seems to be lacking in direction, I feel that there’s no one you can speak with about issues."
"Pave the parking lot!!!!! And stop letting the bar use your parking lot. I dont need to see beer bottles on the ground when I drop off or pick up my son.... Keep ms. Lori as the director she is doing a great job and I feel the place has done a 180 since she has been put in charge. She has brought back the moral to the employees.... And a few more employees shouldn't hurt either i.e teachers aids...."
"The hours are convenient but the cost is high when you factor how many belongings have been lost despite labels. There have been many incidents where my kids get hurt and the teacher didn't know how. Some teachers are better and more organized than other. Our location has no director, just an acting director."
"Great school and great teachers so far. Could not be happier to have my son enrolled in this school plus he loves it."
"The parking lot is in desperate need of repair. The exterior was much nicer when the bar next door wasnt allowed to use the lot.I also wish they would increase staff slightly because there was a lot of kid juggling going on for awhile to manage to the numbers."
"Over all pretty pleased excerpt that the center needs an actual director and I feel it’s short staffed."
"It has been ok. Some head teachers have been better than others. The place feels a little dated/dirty. My child is happy and comfortable which is why she is still there, but we are exploring options."
"School is great! My one concern....in the potty training rooms I do not feel when the kids in the potty with the teacher there is adequate staff watching the other children. I'm very concerned with no one watching a room of 2-3 year olds. This happens in the evening too when the rooms are consolidating."
"We are newbies in the program but everyone in the Saddle Brook location has made this expierence fantastic and beautiful. Our daughter loves the teachers and staff. They are all amazing"
"I feel a lot of parents concerns are taken lightly and the end result is always the parents misunderstanding-"
"As mentioned in my previous comment, the managment needs work. Ideas are implemented without follow up or the teachers knowing... i.e. summer sunscreen and elimination of naps. And when communication is sent out it is never complete - lots of one off emails. I miss the monthly newsletter that we used to recieve when it was private - there was thought and organization put into it. Also, there has been a lot of staff turnover lately which is concerning - could it be because the staff is constanting juggled to meet ratios. Every classroom used to have 2 staff... now you never know what you will get. And lastly, while Alison the director is a nice person... I feel like she makes things more hectic and confusing. She gets the kids hyper before you leave and I don't think they handle serious issues well. Also, the school used to plan fun events , like the carnival, which were all eliminated and we now pay more? We love Miss Laurie!"
"It's been good, but we'll probably switch schools in a year."
"Very positive! Everyone is very polite and respectful. My daughter has shown a lot of improvement and enjoys school. Thank you!"
"Staff are very friendly and nurturing to all children. Love the indoor and outdoor facility."
"Overall good. Some teachers/caregivers are obviously better then others."
