It’s really amazing experience for me during this September. When I knew I got one month business trip to North Brunswick, New Jersey. I planned to take my daughter go with me. Her name is Sunny, 5 years old, attending kindergarten in Taiwan now. I hoped she can experience different school life in U.S.A. Then I started to search school information on the internet. I found 2~3 schools near where we were living. I checked each school’s website and try to get as much information from the internet. When I saw “I can kids” website, I was impressed. I studied the school curriculum and photos, then I found all children with happy smile in the photo. This is the most important reason attracted me to make decision. Then I made appointment with Ms. Betsy. When I arrived New Jersey second day, as appointment time I went to school with Sunny. Sunny is so shy and had a little bit nervous at beginning, but when Ms. Betsy introduced the school environment and teachers to us, all the teachers looked so friendly and very patient with kids, then I found Sunny is so exciting to look forward to starting her new school life. So I chose “I can kids” to be Sunny school. I am so happy to see Sunny is happy to go to school everyday, she can speak more and more English during the class and have many new friends. She said she loves this school, teacher Ms. Tracy, and all friends. She asks me “Mom, can we stay in U.S.A.? I love here so much.” So I know I made right decision and we will come back again in next summer vocation. Linn Shih 09/18/2014

I recently went to I Can Kids open house last Saturday and was able to meet all of the staff and have a chance to look around. The place was decorated so beautifully for the holidays and was nice to see that the staff took such pride in their work. It shows that they really cared about the appearance of the school and it was fantastic. It must have taken forever. There were games, arts projects, balloons, and even an I CAN KIDS cupcake cake which my daughter LOVED!!! I was so impressed with the school that I enrolled my one and a half daughter in Miss Amandas classroom she was so friendly and really knew a lot about what kinds of activities to provide for the children at this young age. She does not just let the children run around and play all they there are mini lessons that she incorporates throughout the day. She showed me her lesson plans from previous weeks and all of the activities that she has still planned to do with them. After one week of being at the school my daughter learned how to say please and thank you in sign language and comes home with a creative art project every night. I am truly happy that my daughter is learning and having fun. I cant wait for my daughter to dance to Jingle Bells next week at the holiday party!!! Check it out because it is worth it. The best part I do not have to pack a lunch they provide it so my daughter is always getting a hot meal. What else could I ask for.

My boy is my first child. So finding a daycare for him its something new to us as parents. We used to send him to other daycare before coming to I can kids. He started to go to daycare when he was 10 months old, we always prepared 3 bottles of his formula every morning, but came back home with 1 unfinished bottle. And when he was ready to have table food more than half of the time his daily report said he refused to eat lunch. He got sick a lot. Everyday when he got on the car he always asked me for cereal or milk. During cold season I will see him with running nose when I picked him up. So I felt very uncomfortable letting staying at that daycare. Finally after he attended I can kids, I started seeing him learning things. One day he came back home from school and pointed at the box said #2. I was so surprised he actually know his numbers and colors. (Hes not even two years old yet) I love the daily report with pictures, as a working mother Im very curious what was he doing at school and what can he do! And when they go outside they always help you dressed your kid right and letting them drink water. When he had the nutrition and the right care. I dont see him get sick as often as back then. However, now we are moving to another state I hope I can find a daycare just like I CAN KIDS. So he will grow up happy and healthy!

My child currently attends this Day Care Center and Im in the process of placing him in a different school. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere, there are plenty of Day Care centers in this area. They try to lure parents in by undercutting their competitors tuition rates, I understand Child Care is very expensive but if you want your child to actually learn something to me its worth spending a few extra dollars. The co-owner/Director of this place is very conniving, I was told that each teacher is required to create weekly lesson plans for their respective class (that was a lie).. I dont blame the teachers for this, I believe its the directors responsibility to ensure the children are being educated. There is a high employee-turnover rate, Ive seen a lot of teachers come and go which has a negative effect on the children. To conclude, I DO NOT recommend I CAN KIDS for your child, despite the appearance the place is poorly ran.

I recently enrolled my 4 year old there this summer and she is LOVING IT! We did a tour back in June and even after visiting some of the bigger centers, my daughter would always ask if we could go back to I Can Kids. My initial intent was for her to start in September but after seeing how clean the facility is and the creative curriculum and events they had planned for the summer, I cancelled her summer camp and we started in July! She loves her friends and teachers so much in fact she doesnt want to leave at the end of the day! I have had the most positive experiences with everyone there. I really appreciate how they communicate using email to notify parents of the daily report as well as upcoming events! The daily email helps my conversation regarding her day at school and show that I am as excited and interested in what she is doing. Im very excited to see whats ahead in September as she starts PreK-4!

From the time that I walked into the I Can Kids Child Care and Learning Center I felt a good positive instinct for this facility. It was the best center that I have walked into. There was a welcome sign for my son Nicholas and I as soon as we walked into the facility. Betsy, before sh explained everything thorough, she offered my son a snack to eat. After talking about the curriculum, she brought us around the facility to meet all the teachers. When we went into the room that my son would be in, they wanted my son to play a bit so they and I could see how Nicholas reacts to the environment. Right away he went to one of the toys that I know that he loves and I was told it was every childs favorite toy. He met his friend, Max, within seconds and played with each other. All I have to say WOW! with this facility and I can see that they would do anything to keep the good reputation that they currently have.
