My first daughter went there since 15months. I was impressed with the staffs love and care for my child which made me feel comfortable leaving her for the whole day. Her growth and development was incredible. She came back potty trained at 20months. She was so self sufficient and independent. I loved how the teachers showed little fun clever ways to put on their jackets and shoes. Most of all I loved how my daughter would pray before eating! I believe cultivating a deep part of character such as gratitude is so enriching. Now I have another 18months old that I desperately desire to offer the same experiences.The campus is absolutely magical, surrounded by tall trees and all the nature. Which is great positive stimulation for their mind. I love this place and so grateful for all the hard work Ms. Crystl and the staff put into creating such an amazing place for the children and even the parents! P.s. I enrolled my daughter in public school kindergarten but she demands to go to Jina for Kindergarten. She is fundraising to her grandparents to raise sufficient funds so she can go to Jina. We entertained the idea and sat down with Ms. Crystl. I had no idea Jinas kindergarten Students testing score is in the top 5% Nation wide!! They are definitely doing something right. Thank you for all that you guys do behind the scenes to make this place incredible!

Our 2.5 year old son started at Jin-A few months ago and we absolutely love it here. He is currently at the Yellow House with Ms. Aida. When I began to look for quality daycares, I looked at first at places that were super new with state of the art facilities type schools, which is where our son began. We found that at those places, the teachers were often young and had a very high turnover rate. He would come home with art work that he obviously had not done and he wasnt engaged or challenged in any way. At Jin-A, the relationship between the child and teacher is developed, the children work on developmentally appropriate tasks, and they are often outside playing in the large outdoor area. On rainy days, the kids play in the large multipurpose room (no watching tv here!). They have endless events and opportunities for parents and kids and always have an open door policy. They work closely with me in potty training. We love the small class sizes (10 or less) in each room. As a teacher myself, I highly recommend Jin-A!

Our daughter has been going to Jin A since she was 1 years old, she’s almost 4 now! The family at Jin A have become an important part of my daughter’s life. Jin A is an incredible daycare full of love, instruction, and above and beyond care that is not found in many daycares. I have met many of the parents that go to Jin A and we all have the common denominator of knowing that our child is in good hands. It is a joy to see our daughter light up when she gets to school to play with her friends and interact and learn from her teachers. I highly recommend any parent looking for a daycare to consider Jin A. Youll fall in love as soon as you visit, guarantee it. We will be moving soon and with a very heavy heart, it will be extremely hard to separate. There is no place like it!! I will forever be grateful for the unforgettable experience they gave my daughter and peace of mind they gave me when I was working very long hours. Jin A, I wish I can take you with me. Thank you!!

I never write reviews, but I feel like this school is one of the best kept secrets of North New Jersey. I recently moved my family up here and was very disappointed in the quality of education, access to nature, and interaction with arts / music that the local day cares provided. Jin A was the answer for my children and our family. Not only is the racially and culturally diverse staff adherent to high standard educational practices (including various Montessori approaches), but the GROUNDS ARE AMAZING. Just go there in the spring and you will feel like youve stumbled upon heaven. No daycare can provide this much running space, fresh air, swimming, and even horticulture! Lastly...every day my son and daughter bring home arts and crafts--beaming with pride..and they are always singing a little song. My only complaint about this institution is that they dont have an elementary school. Talk to Mrs. Christl for one minute and youll know, this is the real deal.

My son is now five and has attended Jin-a from when we was 14 months old. What attracted me to the center was the loving staff and the amazing playground (go check it out- its incredible!). When my daughter was born, I could now wait until she turned 1 to start her at Jin-a. Both my children have developed a love of nature, a sense of compassion, and love from their teachers. It really feels like you are part of a family, and I would chose them over and over again to care for my children. My son goes to Kindergarten in September and I am so sad that his time at Jin-a is coming to an end. However what he has learned there will stay with him forever. I am so glad we found this school and thrilled that my daughter is still there so we dont have to say goodbye!

My son is four-years-old, and has attended Jin-A since he was about thirteen months-old. My family, and I absolutely adore the staff, and curriculum, that Jin-A has to offer. Additionally, the outdoor playground is not only gorgeous, it allows the children to cooperatively play and explore a complex outdoor environment. There is something for every childs interest with the garden, the play sets, and even the onsite swim lessons. We have met life long friends, that feel like extended family, thanks to all of the warm birthday celebrations at Jin-A as well. If we had continued to live near by, our son would absolutely have stayed with this amazing daycare. I highly recommend them!

am a father of two children whose been here since 2009 and up to this time my children are still here. We love the school and we are so happy on how they nurture and help out to develop their inner talent and support their intellectual development, socially and emotionally.They really enjoy and happy to be in the school. Their teacher are caring and loving people. They really treat your child like their own with tender loving care. I highly recommend this school to parents who are looking for excellent in academic and excellent in character with a safe place and loving environment. Thank you Jin-A teachers for a job well done!

Jin-A Child Care Center is so much more than a place where they will watch your child while you work. They provide a nurturing and safe environment with an emphasis in emotional, artistic, personal and academic growth. My oldest child attended Jin-A from age 1.5 up to kindergarten and my youngest is currently there. Both of them have had very positive experiences and have grown quite attached to their teachers and Jin-A. The staff was also very patient with me (as a parent with anxiety separation!) and went out of their way to reassure me that all would be alright. I wholeheartedly recommend Jin-A.

My son started here at 2 and a half and stayed until he left for Kindergarten at almost 6. Jin-a is a gem of a school. The staff and teachers, are all so warm and helpful. They really love and care for the kids. They always had so many wonderful extra programs as well, great art classes, music, lots of fun projects and educational field trips. The campus itself is a dream. We absolutely loved our time there and felt so lucky to be a part of the "Jin-a family." I would recommend it to anyone.
