Celebree School Expands in Branchburg-Somerville
Celebree School is set to make a significant addition to the Branchburg-Somerville community with its grand opening on August 11, 2025. This esteemed institution is known for its comprehensive early childhood education programs, spanning infant and toddler care, preschool, as well as before and aftercare services, and summer camps. The newly established location at 1005 US-202 aims to cater to the diverse needs of children while upholding New Jersey's educational standards.
Owned and operated by local entrepreneur Jalpesh Chokshi, who shifted from a thriving finance career to pursue his passion for early education, this new Celebree School reflects his commitment to community growth. Jalpesh's journey was inspired by his own children's daycare experiences, which motivated him to create a nurturing space that goes beyond conventional childcare.
A Commitment to Community
Jalpesh expressed his mission succinctly: "I didn't just want to build a business—I wanted to build something meaningful for my family and the community." The school is not merely an educational institution; it strives to foster connections within the community, offering a supportive environment for families. Each child enrolled will contribute to local nonprofits such as Make-A-Wish and the Ronald McDonald House of Southern New Jersey, showcasing Celebree School's dedication to social responsibility.
Furthermore, the school is initiating a potential partnership with Somerset Pediatric Hospital, emphasizing their goal of enhancing the well-being of children and families in the area. Local residents can also expect to see Celebree School integrated into community resources such as kids' menus and activity mats, reinforcing their presence in family-oriented activities.
Grand Opening Events
The opening will culminate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony on August 18, 2025, supported by the local chamber of commerce, signifying a warm welcome into the community. This establishment aims to serve infants through preschool-aged children and create more than 25 job opportunities locally, highlighting its importance to the local economy.
Celebree School prides itself on its philosophy, encapsulated in the motto, "Grow People Big and Small™," which underscores the idea that early childhood development must mirror academic learning with genuine connections that address the needs of children and their families. Each Celebree location is envisioned as a supportive village for parents, children, and educators, committed to delivering a curriculum that prepares young minds for school and life challenges.
With over three decades of experience, Celebree School is dedicated to providing a safe and stimulating learning environment that nurtures a lifelong love for learning. Their tailored programs for children aged six weeks to 12 years promote positive social skills and values, integrating fun education through play, projects, and hands-on activities. The school offers flexible care options—part-time or full-time—encouraging parents to visit any time.
Richard Huffman, the founder and CEO of Celebree School, emphasized the importance of robust partnerships as the franchise expands. His pride in Jalpesh’s journey as a franchisee is evident: "As we continue to expand our brand's footprint, it’s essential we ally with local leaders passionate about early childhood education. Jalpesh embodies this spirit, and I have complete confidence he will successfully steer our mission ahead."
