Cresthill Academy Child Daycare and Preschool - Paramus

I work in education, and this is the best infant care I’ve seen. The ratio of babies to teachers is remarkably low, so my child gets a lot of individual attention, and she’s formed a truly secure bond with her two teachers. They’re professional and attentive to detail, and they genuinely seem to enjoy working with the children. We feel so lucky to have found them! Thank you for everything

I’ve never felt so comfortable leaving my daughter anywhere especially for a long period time throughout the day. When I saw it was a facility instead of a house I was already intrigued. Miss Kiara made us feel right at home along with her incredible staff. They truly all do care about the their jobs and the kids. They constantly send us photos throughout the day and the space is super clean with a back yard that’s safe for the kids play in. They also teach the kids Spanish which is something we do not want our daughter to lose. Love this place and I highly recommend it to any parents looking for the best care and attention for their children.

We couldn’t be happier with our daughter’s daycare! From the very beginning, we felt that this was the best place for our little one after visiting and researching almost every daycare in the area. One of our biggest concerns was how long it would take our daughter to adjust, but she surprised us by settling in so well. Thanks to the caring and supportive teachers, she was happy and comfortable within just a few weeks. Now she loves going every day and enjoys all the fun and engaging activities. What stands out the most is how caring every teacher is not just with the children in their own classroom, but with all the kids. It’s clear that everyone knows every child and truly cares about their well-being, creating a warm, welcoming, and family like environment. The fresh, healthy meals they provide every day are another huge plus. The quality of the food is outstanding, and considering everything they provide, the tuition is hard to beat compared with other daycares in the area. A special thank you to the director, Mrs. Kiera. She is wonderful and truly makes parents feel that their little ones are in the best hands. Her dedication and care are reflected throughout the entire center.

Since starting at Cresthill Academy, our daughter has been doing so much better in school. She understands her work more, stays on top of assignments, and doesn’t get as frustrated as she used to. It’s been really nice to see her feel more confident and comfortable with her academics. Ms.Cassandra is amazing shes patient, supportive and really helps our daughter feel confident in her learning.

We’re really happy with our son’s experience at Cresthill Academy. He’s doing much better academically and actually enjoys learning more now. The teachers are kind, supportive, and take the time to help when needed. It’s been great to see his confidence grow along with his schoolwork.

I Absolutely love this place! It has been a warm, loving, atmosphere from day one — my kids come in with smiles and go to their teachers, who are all genuinely joyful and incredibly attentive. There is amazing staff across the board— all the teachers, director (Mrs. Kiara), and assistant director (Mrs.Sarah) are exceptional: kind, patient, and wonderfully proactive with every child. Communication is outstanding—updates, photos, and check-ins arrive consistently, making me feel totally in the loop. At Cresthill Academy Paramus there is a true sense of family and community — it’s more than a daycare; it’s a supportive, welcoming community that invites parents to participate and feel connected. They know my mom journey and respond with extra care and understanding. I also love that they offer healthy, tasty, options for meals and snacks included in tuition… the meals are not only nutritious and kid-friendly, but make preparation for the day easy and reassuring. There are loads of fun and engaging activities— Academics here are top notch! including plenty of age-appropriate activities and opportunities for parents to get involved, which makes us feel part of a bigger family. Additionally, for me, the biggest plus is the convenient location. This makes it easy to drop off and pick up, saving time in my busy days. Since becoming a Cresthill Paramus parent, my life has been made easier. The seamless routines, thoughtful care, and consistent warmth have truly simplified my schedule and lifted my daily stress. If you’re considering a daycare, I cannot recommend this place enough. Bring your kid—they’ll feel right at home, and you’ll feel the same sunshine in every update and interaction.

After searching for the right daycare, Cresthill Academy Paramus has made such a difference for us. The space is always clean, bright, and welcoming, which gives us real peace of mind every day. Ms. Sarah’s joyful and friendly energy stands out, and Ms. Kiara is just as warm and caring—both make everyone feel comfortable the moment you walk in. I also love that my child is already being exposed to sensory activities at just six months old. It truly feels like a place where both kids and parents are cared for.

I’ve had two of my children attend Cresthill and one is currently enrolled now. One of my daughters was in the ABA program and the support we received was incredible. We truly felt like she had the best team behind her, they went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. What I love most about the curriculum is how engaging it is. The daily circle time and structured activities keep the kids involved and I really appreciate how parents are updated regularly through the app. Our favorite teacher is Ms. Mia! She has cared for both of my children, and we absolutely love her.
