Our Infant Program provides personalized care for infants in a warm, secure environment. From playtime to diaper changing to feeding, our teachers will provide proper care based on your infant’s unique schedule. To keep your child entertained, we will talk and sing with him or her throughout the day.
These interactions are important because infants are at the point of understanding language. To keep parents informed, Home Away Child Care Center also provides daily reports. This way, you will know whether your child has been fed, has a fresh set of diapers, or has taken his or her nap.
With three convenient locations in Union City, New Jersey, Home Away Child Care Center provides a safe, clean, and secure environment supported by nurturing and enthusiastic staff.
Our staff members dedicate their time and efforts to ensuring your child receives the highest quality care at our facilities, and provide comfort, convenience, and peace of mind to working parents in our community.

Both of my sons attended this center until they turned four years old. My oldest son has ADHD and impulse control difficulties, so it was very difficult to find a daycare that was sensitive to his needs. When he first attended Home Away III, I immediately knew it would be a good fit. He no longer came home crying and upset about things that happened at school. He was happy, he had fun and he even learned his ABCs/ the days of the week/ the months of the year.I observed a lesson once and I was impressed with the questions the teacher was asking the children. They seemed to enjoy the lesson and were engaged with the teacher. This child care center not only taught my sons important lessons, but they had a lot of fun while doing it. Unlike other PK-3 / PK-4 programs I have seen, the children are allowed to have fun while they are learning. There is plenty of time for pretend play. My favorite part is that TV is not a major part of the program. The children are only allowed to watch TV only one hour per week (the previous daycare my son attended put TV on for the children both in the morning and afternoon everyday). The other times, they are having fun and learning.My youngest son has severe food allergies, and they are very careful with his food preparation. I never felt worried that he might eat something he was not supposed. Also, both my sons have asthma and they were very diligent with giving them medication (as per my request).My sons both had wonderful teachers at this center. Currently, Ms. Maritza and Ms. Patti are my son's teachers. He has nothing but great things to say about them and I can tell that they really care for my son. The teachers in the toddler rooms have worked with my son as well, and he had good experiences with all of them.Overall, I would definitely recommend this daycare to anyone looking for a good place for their children. The class sizes are small, the teachers are great, and my children were always kept safe.

If you are looking for a clean and safe environment for your child, I highly recommend this daycare. My son attended Home Away III Child Care Center at the age of 2. As a first time mom, l was hesitant in enrolling him in a daycare but after visiting and researching various daycares, Home Away III Child Care Center was my choice. The staff was very understandable to my needs and made me feel comfortable in leaving him there. I enjoyed their feedback on how the day went with him, if he ate less than normal or did not nap etc. The environment was indicative of learning which is highly important to me. He was not playing all day but also learning and therefore, he had a great transition into Pre-K3. Because I had such a great experience with my son, I later enrolled my daughter. I also enrolled her at the age of 2. Again, a great experience from the staffing to the quality of care. I would give it more stars if I could!

Great facility, staff & teachers! This is our first daycare and our daughter started at 6 months and has thrived in the infant room. After warming up to the teachers the first few days, she now has a smile both arriving and leaving each day. As a first time parent, I also appreciate pictures and nap/feeding updates throughout the day via the Tadpoles app.
