The website of Prime Time Early Learning Centers states they "offer an environment that is safe and loving, and a staff that is well trained, highly motivated and dedicated to each child's well being."
How is this possible when the director is moving teachers around the school despite their preferences, shocking the children and their parents, and leaving everyone (teachers, parents and children) feeling uneasy?
How is this possible when the teachers are leaving the school at a shocking rate, while others simply remain unhappy while looking for other work.
How is this possible when there have been countless offenses to the child to teacher ratio laws of the state of New Jersey?
Unsafe teaching ratios, unhappy employees, children out of their routine, and parents whose hearts cry when their children cry does NOT equal a safe and loving environment to which the school purports.
Show your support of what can be a wonderful daycare experience for your children and for you. Please sign this petition to insist that Jeff Wasserman, Prime Time Owner, and Christine Tarallo, Prime Time General Manager, remove the current director immediately.

Reaching this point in our campaign has been draining but it proves we are not alone in noticing these failures. Seeing how many people feel the same heavy weight of concern keeps me moving forward even when I am exhausted.

I would like to say something about Primetime. My daughter used to work for Primetime and never been unhappy when Nicole Olsen been the Director there. Ever since Diana came to Primetime my daughter Taeaise has been unhappy and she seem like she was forced to resign because things was unorganized and very chaotic. One thing about her was that she thought she would be with the company for a long time because she lovex the kids, the families and her co workers. She always think about going back but not with tge Director and other management thats there now. Something needs to be done immediately.
I agree that Primetime is not what is used to be. I was a Teacher/Teacher Assistant since they opened in 2008. I left because I felt like the new director along with the other management team was being unfair to all the staff and there was somethings that I didnt agree with. I did not wanted to leave Primetime but I couldnt stay there knowing that I would be happy. I would love to go back if they change their management team.
I'm a reporter with The Jersey Journal. Would love to hear what's really going on. Please give me a call at 201-273-0326. I want to hear your side of the story.
I MUST SAY I LOOKED AT THIS OUT OF CURIOSOTY AS I HAVE NO ISSUES AT MY DAUGHTERS SCHOOL AND AS A LOCAL BUSINESS OWNER AS DISGUSTED THAT THIS EXISTS. GOD HELP US ALL! IF EVERY DISGRUNTLED STAFF MEMBER STARTED RIDICULOUSNESS LIKE THIS THE FREE MARKET WOULD CEASE TO EXIST AND WE WOULDNT NEED CHILD CARE. I REALIZE COMMENTING MARKS ME AS "SIGNED" I DO NOT SUPPORT THIS AT ALL AND AGREE WITH THE OTHER COMMENTS THAT THIS IS A WITCHHUNT AND DISGUSTING TO DO TO SOMEONE. EMPLOYEES MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS AND JUDGING BY THIS I WOULD SERIOUSLY QUESTION THOSE DECISIONS.
Seriously? This seems like a witch hunt by a few parents with some personal axe to grind. I've met and like Ms. Diana. I've seen she can sometimes be tough on the staff at times but I think its only because she wants the best for the children. What employee really likes their boss, right? Prime Time has been really good for our son and I think Ms. Diana is one reason they have such high standards.
I believe this is deplorable. First and foremost I would like to know how I am even associated with this when I am no longer at the school. I never had issue and left shortly after the renovations. I have seen nothing but positivity from the management and besides why are we to involve ourselves with staff and management issues? I was happy and my child was happy and safe. I support the management there and think this is a shame.
I must say that I had a very different experience than most of what I've read. My daughter loved Primetime. She loved her teachers. They always had a smile on their faces. She was really happy every single day. I also want to point out some great changes in the school - starting with the enrichment. I think that the new enrichment program is amazing - my daughter loved all of it! To have a special activity each day is terrific. In addition, shortly after Diana started, we received weekly lesson plans which were so helpful to us when talking to our daughter about her day. I really feel that she learned a lot and had great interactions with the staff and other kids. I doubt that I am the only person who feels this way. One other thing - Diana organized a logistical miracle when the school underwent renovations. She figured out how to get coverage at the other school locations - and get the kids there safely.

It's not so much the changes and turnover in staff, I'll leave that to professional judgement. For me it's more of the lack of communication as to why there has been turnover and why employees are clearly unhappy. It's the constant feeling that one is not getting a full story or even getting a purposely made up story when one has a question - about staff, schedules, fees, etc... Management to Parent communication needs to be clearer and parent issues need to be addressed with at least a vail of concern.
