Our Children's academy had been a second home for my little boy . He had been attending since he was a year old , about to be 4 and all I have to say is thank you so much for all the love and care you have provided to my son during these years . He had learned so much , his vocabulary is very good, and very ahead on subjects that will help him do great during school years once he's ready to start school. Teachers and management communicate very well with parents and always available to help when needed. I love that I can go to work knowing that my son is being taken good care of . Thank you so much Our children's academy for your love and dedication !!!!!

I cannot give OCA enough stars. The teachers are so loving and caring, and my daughter has been flourishing here. She started going at 15 months old and just started her last year here in pre k. It is bittersweet. She has learned so much, made so many friends, and we've had nothing but a positive experience with every teacher. My daughter asks to go to school on the weekend - so I know she truly loves it! I am grateful for the app with constant updates and photos, and all the extra care they take of her. I could not recommend OCA enough.

We've had such a wonderful experience at Our Children's Academy. The teachers are truly amazing -- so caring, patient, and genuinely invested in the kids. It's been incredible to watch how much our son has grown and learned. They've really taken the time to get to know him, encourage his curiosity and personality, and help him become more confident and independent. We're so grateful for all the love and care they've given him and for everything they've done to help him thrive!

Our Children's Academy has been an incredible support system for my son and our family. We enrolled him in April 2025, and it has been one of the best decisions we've made.<br><br>The teachers are truly amazing and genuinely care about every child. A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Alison, Ms. Ximena, Ms. Yulissa, Ms. Lizbeth, Ms. Elizabeth, Ms. Perla, and Ms. Brianna for their dedication, patience, and encouragement. I also want to especially thank Ms. Mimi and Ms. Andrea, who were always there to answer my questions about after-hours care and put my mind at ease. They always listened, offered thoughtful suggestions, and were ready to help.<br><br>Academically, OCA has exceeded my expectations. They have been one step ahead in preparing my son in reading and math. At just 4 years old, he can already read, write, and do math confidently.<br><br>Beyond academics, they've done an excellent job preparing him for kindergarten by teaching important life skills such as walking to his classroom in

I called you, and I texted you, so what are you talking about? I'm not hiding behind any post. You're being very unprofessional. I asked you politely to call me, and yet you blocked me. You know why - because I know exactly who you are.

I believe you have us mixed up with another center. We are located in Edgewater, NJ.

Update: So my 2 year old daughter had been going to OCA for less than a year now. Overall experience has been pretty decent actually. Price was decent... definitely not on the cheaper side of it.. and it's monthly.. meaning if you are doing a fulltime (M to F) and you have vacation or days that the child is not going to be there, you are still responsible for the full amount which i guess it's pretty standard?<br>there were few big issues that really solidified our decision to move away from OCA. And really, this could be just personal reason but i figured these types of online platforms are out there so that people can obtain reviews from people that would provide honest, un-biased experience.<br><br>1. behavior changes and language changes:<br>Almost a month into our daughter being there, her tone and her language choice got noticeably changed. "MOVE BACK" or "I am watching you" or "STOP" were just few examples of choice of words that she started using; trust me... we use these words
