Blooming Buddies Play Center | Passaic County, NJ

We absolutely love Blooming Buddies! The membership program was the perfect introduction for my daughter—fun, nurturing, and educational. Transitioning to preschool was a big step, but Ms. Ashley made it seamless with her passion and care. She’s truly amazing. My daughter now looks forward to every day at preschool and is learning so much. Ms. Ashley and Ms. Katie are not only wonderful educators but a true support system for both children and parents. We’re so grateful for the love and dedication they bring to this special place. Highly recommend!

cannot say enough wonderful things about Ms. Ashley ! She is truly the best teacher ever, bringing an incredible level of attentiveness and care to her classroom. Ms. Ashley’s dedication to each child’s growth and happiness is evident in everything she does. She creates a warm, nurturing environment where my child feels safe, valued, and excited to learn. Her thoughtful approach ensures every student gets the attention they need to thrive, and her passion for teaching shines through. We feel so lucky to have Ms. Ashley as my daughter’s teacher—she’s an absolute gem!

My now 3.5 year old daughter her been going to Blooming Buddies since around September of last year and It has been one of the best decisions I could’ve made for her. She doesn’t go to daycare and is somewhat of a Velcro baby with me and I wanted to make sure she had a chance to interact with other kids, have more of a structured learning experience and get ready for pre-k. Blooming Buddies offered just what we needed and exceeded my expectations. Ashley and Katie are incredible, they are kind, patient, amazing teachers and super hands on. The Blooming Toddlers class allowed my daughter to play with other kids and still have me in the next room just in case she needed me. She is now in the Blooming Preschool program twice a week for 3 hours with only 3 other kids in the class, where she gets unparalleled one on one time with her teacher. She has learned sooo much and is so happy, she looks forward to going to school every week! It also gives me 3 hours to do things like go to the gym, grocery shop, get my nails done, etc. Their special events are also incredible, the Moana experience was out of this world. I know my daughter will always be involved with Blooming Buddies in one way or another even after she goes into the public school system. I cannot recommend them enough!!!!

I brought my 22 month old for Open Play and it was great So clean, so cute and everyone is so kind Love chatting with moms who have kids the same age Great place to bring your kids who aren’t yet in pre-school. They can interact with others and learn to share I have already booked my next visit!

Such a cute way to try our first “drop off style” class with my two year old. I love the combination of sensory, craft, and playtime activities in a small class size with children my daughter’s age.
