we love les enfant preschool. My 4 year son goes to this school for 2 years. and my 2 years old daughter will go there on september. The director and teachers there are all warm heart. they always put children request first, not money. We feel like we are one of family member instead of costomer. The whole eviroment is not a bussiness and money thing. teachers care more about childern. Teachers work hard to provide best eviroments for children to learn and grow. My son is very happy everyday. Yes, the tuition is not cheap compare to other preschool in the town, but also not that expensive unacceptable. It is worthy to pay off. If you live in bergen county and look for a preschool, I highly recommand it
