  • This facility was one of the best we saw. My daughter Ruby loves her teacher's so much. As a first time mom, we were so selective about where to send her and honestly I felt so comfortable. So appreciative of the love everyone gives here

  • I can't say enough good things about this place. Though my son was only here for a short time for the last few months, this was one of the best experiences we had from the get go. From the director of the school, down to the teachers, I really felt like my little one was safe. I am a first time mom and it was a long search for us, I am so sad to be moving and will miss this center!!!

  • Smart Beginnings of Oswego is a wonderful early childhood program that balances both education and care. The teachers are kind, patient, and truly committed to helping children develop academically and socially. The environment is warm, safe, and well-organized, giving kids a great space to explore, learn, and build confidence. It’s clear that the staff genuinely care about each child and their growth. Ms. Ambreen is doing a fantastic job—her dedication and leadership clearly reflect in the positive atmosphere of the program.

  • I had a wonderful experience with Smart Beginnings Academy. The staff is professional, caring, and truly committed to providing children with a secure and nurturing environment. The teachers take the time to learn about each child's needs and provide thoughtful developmental support. The academy's emphasis on both learning and play has really impressed me. The activities are engaging and help children grow not only academically but also socially and emotionally. Children's enthusiasm for going to school each day is fueled by the well-kept, creative learning materials and well-organized classrooms. The educators' genuine concern for each child and their strong communication with families are what stand out the most. It is evident that Smart Beginnings Academy is devoted to providing children with a solid educational foundation. Any family looking for a supportive and enriching early childhood learning environment should strongly consider Smart Beginnings Academy.

  • When we began shopping around for child care we didn’t know what to expect. We were anxious about the process but the entire staff at Smart Beginnings of Oswego made us feel very comfortable. Everyone is friendly, professional, and transparent. As first time parents we were very anxious to be away from our child but the staff put us at ease with consistent updates and photos throughout the day on the ProCare app. Smart Beginnings of Oswego also occasionally holds fun events and theme weeks and they are very clear on what curriculum the students are learning. We highly recommend Smart Beginnings of Oswego.
