Description: Michael’s serves approximately 295 children between the ages of 18 months and 5 years during the school year at our well-equipped building located at 101 Oliver Street, Paterson, N.J., and our summer program serves children between the ages of 18 months and 12 years old. We are one of the largest child care centers in the area with 13 Abbott pre-school classrooms and 8 toddler classrooms.
When you walk into Michael’s Energy Factory, you get a sense of being amongst family. We consider our center to be your child’s home away from home. We are proud of our structured, yet fun environment that offers children a world of opportunity to gain confidence and knowledge, all while establishing a love for learning and giving parents peace of mind that their child is in good hands.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
