River School Newport A Bright Horizons School

its been over a year since my daughter left river school. she was there from 1 1/2 to 3. i feel all teachers and management there is very supportive and caring and cara is a very personable manager. however my daughter was considered to be more difficult and in the end they told us we couldnt keep sending her there. so a warning to parents in the area that this is what could end up happening there in the worst case scenario. your family need to be a high resource family i think to be able to have a smooth transition for your child to attend there at least full time

We cannot thank enough the teachers at River School for taking such great care of my daughter and making her feel at home. She had learnt so many new skills and developed both socially and emotionally at River School. It was really daunting to us as parents to send our child to a daycare especially being together all the time during the pandemic but seeing her settling in to river school was so comforting and this was possible due to the teacher’s cooperation at river school

I had the privilege of entrusting my two-year-old son to BH School, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The care and dedication they've shown towards my son have been truly remarkable. The teachers, especially Miss Ari, at the Bears class, Her warm heart and genuine care made my son's time at BH School not only educational but also full of love and compassion. We miss her dearly. years. BH School has been a second home for my son, and I couldn't be more grateful for the incredible team that has cared for him. I wholeheartedly recommend BH School to any parent seeking the best possible start for their child's educational journey. Thank you, BH School, for being an integral part of our lives.

My daughter started at the school when she was 5 months old and we could not be more happy. The staff is kind and welcoming. My daughter runs out of my hands every morning, she cannot get into the classroom quick enough. She has hit all her milestones developmentally and seems to be learning a ton. They regularly have class projects and other fun activities for the kids even at young ages. We get daily updates and reminders on the school app which gives me the ease of mind as a working parent. The staff is knowledgeable and resourceful. They flag any issues or new things they see and help when I am in need of some advice. I could not be happier with the care we have had.

My daughter has had a wonderful experience at River School penguin class. Her teachers, school director, and the support staff have all been great. It is clear that the teachers really care about my daughter's development and happiness. I receive a daily report about my daughter's day - what she did, when she napped, how much lunch she ate and if she had dirty #2 diapers with the time the diaper was changed.

It's the best school in the vicinity! My daughter has been going there since she was 18 months and now she's 5! I couldn't have asked for a better place with such amazing teachers who go above and beyond to look out for your kid. All the teachers have looked after our daughter as their own and given her so much love and precious memories to cherish over the years. During Covid, the school reopened as soon as the initial period of the lockdown was over and we were very relieved with all the support they have provided over the years. They organize and celebrate diversity by celebrating festivals across all ethnic groups. The teachers are extremely thoughtful and ensure to create such special days for kids and wonderful learning experiences. If you're looking to enroll your child, look no further as this school brings the best mix of a holistic education experience by combining the best methods of Montessori and other pedagogies that enrich early childhood development.

Both of my children attended river school and had many wonderful memories. The faculty lead by Ms Cara are effective and affectionate. Many of their lead teachers genuinely love the children and work hard to come up with fun and educational activities and events for the children throughout the year. The kids also enjoyed the large playground at the front and back of the classrooms, which is quite a big plus for kids growing up in urban area.

We've been blown away by our experience at the River School. Such a caring and experienced staff! They are really great about telling us how he's doing and working with us to help him grow. Our 17 month old son is thriving in the older infant classroom Fishies. We love that there is a playground on-site, attached to the building and there's an off-street area to pull up for drop-off and pick-up. A really lovely play-based learning environment! Worth every penny!

My 22 old month really enjoys going to River School Newport and since day 1 she has learned potentially more than just by being at home. The teachers and programs are really valuable.

Bright Horizons, Jersey City gave me updates on the wrong child on my daughter's first day. They claimed she was doing great, meanwhile my daughter sat in a corner of the classroom and cried for me and I was not contacted. Specifically Newport Bright Horizons school staff neglected my instructions for my child's well being and, when confronted, proceeded to deny any accountability and attempted to deflect blame. Did not find this to be a safe environment for our daughter. Highly disappointing.
