At Smart Start Academy, our goal is to foster a nurturing, safe, fun, and active environment for our students to learn and express themselves socially, creatively, emotionally, and intelligently. Our teaching methods include a wide range of activities and opportunities, including learning through play and exploration. Of course, every child is different, so our experienced teachers work closely with the children and use different methods to provide a variety of lessons and help each student reach their highest potential.
We offer a number of programs at our Jersey City and Hoboken preschools, and each one is tailored to meet the varying needs of different age groups. You can enroll your child in our infant program, toddler program, preschool or pre-kindergarten program. We also offer daycare after school programs and backup care so we can provide even more ways for your children to participate in activities that build self-confidence and help them feel good about expressing themselves.
Our teachers are critical to the Smart Start Academy experience. We only hire the most professional and experienced people to work with your children. They have all met the necessary qualifications and passed a background check and health screening. Each one is ready to help your children reach their potential.
