Zadie'S Nurturing Den

Our family has had an amazing experience as part of the Zadie’s Summit community for the last 3 years. It has been special watching our soon-to-be 4 year old daughter develop, learn, and grow both socially and academically - while having way too much fun throughout her days at Zadie’s. The teachers take such great pride in caring for the children, they are extremely nurturing and loving, while also being fully vested in the kids development. In addition to the teachers, enough cannot be said about the Zadie’s Summit professional staff led by Tameka, the director, who is simply AMAZING. She really does it all and is the heart and soul of Zadie’s Summit. As the last year has been unprecedented for people personally and professionally, the Zadie’s team has gone to great lengths to engage families and create forums for open communication to listen, learn, and share challenges, feedback, and solutions. We will continue to stay ZADIES STRONG and can’t wait to have our younger daughter join in the coming months!!

We have had two children in Zadie’s for the past year and have been very happy with them.We moved, and didn’t think we’d be able to match our prior day care experience. We have been pleasantly surprised. Zadie’s has been doing this for a long time, and is very well run!

We have been sending our 3.5 year old to Zadie's since moving back to Summit in Feb 2020. We had moved out of Hoboken where we were not happy with our former daycare experience - sending our son to Zadie's has been the polar opposite experience. It's clear that the teachers and staff truly care about the children - they remember things about our son from his preferences to details as minor as his favorite color. He always arrives at Zadie's happy and eager to spend the day with his teachers & friends. As it relates to COVID, Zadie's has done an excellent job of keeping parents informed, and mediating any situations that need attention. It goes without saying that managing a childcare facility during a global pandemic is nothing short of challenging, and Zadie's has done a fantastic job keeping up with the ever-changing climate as it relates to COVID and keeping our children safe. We couldn't be happier that we chose Zadie's for our family!

I currently have a four year old son who has been attending Zadie’s since he was just shy of two. Our experience has been fantastic - especially considering such extraordinary circumstances as a school wide flood and the pandemic. The administrators and teachers have always gone above and beyond to be transparent and problem solve. Most importantly, the kids have never felt the impact and receive outstanding academic enrichment. Specific to Covid, all I can say is that they are doing the absolute best they can and we appreciate it. They have managed multiple Covid cases with the strict guidance of the health department and brought parents along every step of the way. Personal opinions on vaccination aside, I’ve been impressed by their swift actions based on science and truly believe they are looking out for my son as if he was one their own. Zadie’s is an awesome familial community - especially for families new to the area. I highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Zadies. They have done a phenomenal job looking after our daughter--especially during a particularly hard year. It was not an easy decision for us to send our daughter back to a daycare in September 2020, knowing that the winter would bring a spike in cases. We were new to Zadies at the time and they quickly earned our trust with their quick and transparent communication and strict adherence to protocol, and once we saw how happy our daughter was to be around other kids again and how much she was learning, we knew we had made the right decision. Zadies has exceeded our expectations and I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their little ones.
