Saplings Academy is a private in-home preschool that strives to meet the needs of students who are ready for a more rigorous academic setting. We seek to work with students who are ready to move forward in their education, but are held back by the school cut off dates which prevents the students from moving forward. We offer internationally acclaimed curriculum and the chance for students to interact with students from all around the world. Our goal is to give students a well-rounded education that is tailored to their current needs. We seek to challenge and help them grow socially, physically, and academically in a small group setting. In addition to our preschool program, Saplings also offers English after school programs for students in Kindergarten through 5th grade. For our Kindergarten program we use an internationally acclaimed phonics program paired with sight word practice to have students reading and writing in no time. Our elementary program focuses on reading comprehension, grammar, and writing. Each month, the students will work through a reading study, have grammar lessons, and do various writings that follow the writing process. We also will be offering PARCC test preparation for grades 3-5 starting in January. Our teacher is a K-6 certified teacher and has been teaching English and Early childhood for the past 5 year overseas and in the states. She seeks to engage and challenge students in the class in a comfortable setting where learning can flourish.

About Our Program - Daycare / Preschool / Aftercare & Drop-in Services Superhero Schoolhouse provides children the opportunity to build confidence and express their individuality through artistically enriching, intellectually stimulating and physically challenging activities. Our unique learning environment sparks physical growth and discovery while our Montessori style curriculum, which combines the traditional and the progressive, supports each student's social, emotional, physical and cognitive growth. What We Believe: We believe children thrive and feel safe in a structured environment. We believe in strengthening the multiple intelligences of each child based on the theories of Harold Gardner. We believe children learn best through play. We believe in developing the whole child by using each lesson to support physical, emotional, social and intellectual growth. We believe in giving children the right and responsibility to make choices, and that by holding them accountable for their choice, we are strengthening their love of learning and sense of independence. We believe in providing all children the gift of time to learn at their own pace. Admission and Tuition: Admission to Superhero Schoolhouse is on a rolling, ongoing basis beginning each summer for the following school year. While most families complete registration during the spring months, we continue to keep our programs open as long as space is available. We embrace a streamlined, low-stress process that allows families to complete enrollment immediately once they have decided that Superhero Schoolhouse is the right program for their child. We are a proud member of Child Care Aware of America, e-Child Care & NJCK!

Home Away From Home

I offer a Home Away From Home for your child. I am a mom of four myself (ages 15 - 21) and all children I care for become part of our family, even long after I stop caring for them on a regular basis. I have over 30 years experience caring for children other then my own, the last 6 years of which have been full-time. I have glowing references from all parents along the way. My promise to all parents whose children I care for is that I will care for your child as if they were my own; I know no other way. At the end of each day, you will go home with a detailed list of what and when they ate and took naps. My working hours are 8 am - 6 pm; however, I am willing to extend that occasionally for $10/hour, when the need arises. For the last 2 years I have cared full-time for a now 2 year old, and recently welcomed his brother into our group when he was only 8 weeks old. (Note: I also cared for their older brothers, who are now 8 and 6, for 2 years when they were similar ages). The 3rd child I care for is a 2 1/2 year old girl, who comes to me 1 - 3 varying days each week. Therefore, I have 1 - 2 openings. My weekly rates are $275 full-time for infants on bottle/baby food (which you provide) and $300 full-time for toddlers and older (includes breakfast, lunch, snack and all milk). Daily rates are $60 for infants and $65 for toddlers and older (food as detailed above). I will not care for more than 4/5 children at one time, with the exception of a 4 year old who I watch during the school year from 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm. I look forward to welcoming your child into our Home Away From Home.
