Our Location
Nestled on five acres in the breathtaking mountains of the New Jersey Skylands, Great Beginnings Academy offers outstanding childcare and enrichment programs for infants through school-aged children.
Our Philosophy
We are committed to provide a safe, respectful, loving, high-quality school that is based on hands-on experimental learning through play, decision making, and social interaction with peers. Our play-based, child-centered environment focuses on the development of the whole child which allows for individual growth and the development of a positive self-image. From this foundation, we believe children will find their natural love for learning and connecting.
