Description: School Time believes each child is the focal point of all activities and programs, regardless of race, color, creed, or nationality. School Time ensures that each child will be nurtured and stimulated to develop the confidence needed to mature to their full potential.
School Time will provide age appropriate learning environments to encourage children to explore, experience, question, and solve, while under the guidance of a caring and nurturing staff. Teachers will use various learning approaches and techniques that best fit the need of each child enrolled at School Time. This process allows children to develop and expand their strengths, build confidence in themselves, and broaden their educational experiences.
School Time builds personal self worth and confidence, so that each child can achieve success and satisfaction throughout their lives. Our goal is to provide our students with the tools needed to go forth in life, to face new challenges, always confident in their quest to explore new experiences.

Choosing a child care facility is one of the most important things that you do as a parent. I took the screening process very seriously considering many aspects such as security, cleanliness, safety procedures, curriculum etc and School Time met and/or exceeded my expectations in all aspects. Management genuinely cares and it shows in every classroom not only in whom they bring in to care for the children but in their building security and cleanliness as well. I've yet to encounter another daycare that has someone that cleans the facility daily, throughout the course of the entire day. That aside, both my children were very happy there and I never felt bad leaving them there to go to work. I knew they'd be taken care of very well - in fact both would usually just wave bye and run off to play with their friends. When needed, medication was always administered as required and calls were always made if there was any reason for concern at all. School Time sets the bar for what childcare facilities should be like. I've since relocated and miss them dearly - while I will strive to get my children the level of care I expect/require I am doubtful that I will ever find a facility like School Time.
We toured School Time and it is a beautiful school with large classrooms, a library, technology room with computers and a smart screen. The school is clean and the staff is friendly. The director is very nice and the owner candidly answered all of our questions including addressing the negative review on this site. It is obvious the owner is invested in her school and the children that attend. We are currently on the waiting list and can't wait for our son to begin. I am a social worker, so I'm probably more paranoid then the average parent due to my profession and what I have seen. I have absolutely no reservations about this school after 3 tours and lots of questions. It is an excellent daycare in my opinion.
WHEN I MOVED TO ALLENTOWN FROM NEW YORK. MY MAJOR CONCERN WAS FINDING THE RIGHT CHILD CARE FOR MY DAUGHTER. I SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF TIME AND RESEARCH BEFORE SELECTING SCHOOL TIME. AFTER SEEING SCHOOL TIME, I KNEW IT WAS THE RIGHT SCHOOL AND WE LOVE IT!
