Helping Hands Nursery School 1059 Amboy Avenue, Edison, NJ 08837

"My daughter has been going to this school September and all I can say is that the teachers are fantastic. The school has gone through significant changes with new management and it has paid off in the way that my child is learning. The teachers are helpful and supportive of all students. I would definitely recommend other parents to enroll their children and see how they shine."

"I would like to inform anyone looking for daycare the Helping Hands Daycare in Edison has been changed into a bright and cheerful environment for your child. Our staff is experienced in all ages and have been with us for over 25 years. I have been with this daycare for only 3 years and have made many changes to the inside and outside of this center. Our curriculum is well thought out for your children to learn and be ready for their future. I would also like to say that I am the Director of this school and I have had my own very successful school for 20 years. I will make this school just as successful. It is a huge improvement since I have taken over this center."

"I am a former employee who can give the pros & cons of this company. Pros: Good teachers including both Toddler class teachers, the pre-school 3 teacher & the Montessori assistant teacher are good. The rate is decent and you can use Community Child Care if eligible Cons: For teachers seeking employment : the pay is average, they say there is room for advancement but it’s a lie. They will use you until they bleed you dry of all your energy then get rid of you when they feel they don’t need you anymore. They have a habit of lying and telling teachers there is a “low number of kids today” when they don’t want you to come in, even when the amount of kids attending that day is normal. There are hardly any raises so don’t expect to work here for 6 months to a year and receive a raise you will be waiting for a long time. The director and manager are sneaky and liars, don’t trust a word they say, if you do, that’s on you. Many former and current employees have told me not to trust them. There is no job security, and if a situation happens they will not have your back as an employee they will have their own backs first before they have yours. There are also no cameras if you like that than you will have no problem, however, no camera means no proof of what’s going on in the classroom. A student can accuse a teacher of abusing them and there is no proof to prove if it is true or not. An investigation unit will have to come in first, investigate everyone (students and parents) before any real proof surfaces about if the abuse really happened or not. Apply at your own risk. For Parents seeking child care: Their education program is average. The security of the daycare it self is weak. There are no cameras, only a keypad on the door that all (old and new) parents have access too. There is hardly anyone who sits at the front desk to greet the visitors. If you enroll your child and expect them to learn and be ready for Kindergarten, I suggest you send them to a different daycare with a better learning program. Enroll your kids at your own risk. Good luck to anyone who does enroll their kids or apply for work, I wish you a better experience than me."

"Recently began using this School and I have had no complaints thus far! The renovations and improvements to the building are beautiful and the staff has been wonderful as a whole. I have had many conversation with the new management and they know what they are doing! Anyone looking for a clean, well organized function for their children would be happy here!"

"School has recently gone through major staffing changes along with being in the process of renovating/updating the appearance and other assets of the building to best align with the school environment. Would recommend this school to anyone who needs a good loving place to have their child at to learn and grow!"
