Letter from the Executive Director
Dear Crème Families,
Happy spring!! We survived a really cold winter and we are ready to enjoy
the outdoors again! With longer days and the ability to get out and
about, spring flowers and beautiful new foliage on the trees and
shrubs, we can all come out of our hibernation and get a bit
more active. Spring is a great time to explore nature with your
children and get outside as much as possible. Here at Crème
we go outside every day we possibly can in the morning and
afternoon.
It’s a good idea to dress your child in layers so he/she
will be prepared for the ever changing temperatures. It’s
also important to remember that open toed shoes are not
permitted at Crème, so please do not send your child with them
on or buy them for the water park. Stop by T-bear Store to get
some short sleeved shirts as well.

In April, we will celebrate “Week of the Young Child” with lots of special
events for our Crème students to enjoy. The Scholastic Book fair will be here that
week as well which is always an exciting reward for the children to be able to buy a
book or two for their own libraries at home.
Teacher Appreciation Week will be celebrated during the week of May 4th. We
have many surprises for our teachers to show them how much we appreciate their
hard work and dedication. There is a very special Breakfast with Mom to
Ancillaries
celebrate Mother’s Day on May 8th.

which is always exciting for all of the children and staff. The park will
be officially open on May 26th. We can’t forget about how special our
Dads are too so we will also be having a very special breakfast for them
on June 19th. Champ Camp begins on June 29th for children who have

registered for a summer full of fun at Creme de la Crème!

Spotlight on Teacher
Ms. Jane
My name is Zheng Zhao (Ms. Jane). I came from Shanghai,
China. I am the Mandarin Enrichment Teacher.
On Christmas Eve 1995, I immigrated to the USA. Now,
I am living in Cherry Hill, New Jersey with my husband and
two lovely kids. In fall 1992, after graduating
from Shanghai Second Normal College with
Bachelor’s degree, I worked in an elementary
school in Shanghai as a Chinese teacher, teaching
students from 1st to 3rd Grade. Then in 1995, I
came to the USA with my husband, who pursued
his advanced degree in this country. During our
stay on the campus, I started a Chinese learning
center. Many Chinese couples sent their kids
to the learning center so that their children had
the opportunity to learn Chinese. It was quite
wonderful.
In 1999, we moved to New Jersey, there too, I began to
teach Chinese in HuaXia Chinese School, which is statewide weekend Chinese school and has branch schools in
many locations of New Jersey/New York/Pennsylvania.
I taught Chinese for students from 4th to 9th Grade in
English and Chinese. I have been teaching at HuaXia
Chinese School for over 15 years and have been nominated
teacher of the year several times.
I worked as a full time Teacher Assistant in an Early
Learning Daycare Center in Piscataway, NJ, from fall
2002 to spring 2003, assisting room teacher for preschool students and teaching Chinese.
I have also been working at New Hope
Academy Saturday School since fall
2011, teaching Chinese for intermediate
level students in English and Chinese. I
love children and teaching is my favorite
job.
Since January 2015, I began teaching
here at Crème de le Crème. Although I
have only worked for a very short period
of time, I already like this school. It is
a very nice facility, which is one of the
best I have ever seen. It also offers diversified culture for
kids. The people in this school are nice and friendly. As a
new teacher, I am feeling a really warm welcome. I am not
teaching Chinese by myself, instead, I have a team with me.
I really appreciate all the help from my colleagues and the
administrative staff at Crème de la Crème!
