Meet Your Assistant Area Manager

Meet Mr. Isaiah, your Assistant Area Manager for Cedar Grove and Saddle Brook. Hello, my AlphaSquad! With six years of experience in childcare programs such as before/after school programs, summer camps, and tutoring enrichment programs, I believe creating an excellent foundation permits a successful program. Taking value in being organized, timely, and an adequate communicator enables me to build a successful team while positively impacting students, parents, and schools. My mantra is what's learned today can be applied tomorrow, and what's applied tomorrow lasts forever. Most of all, I enjoy being on site and making memories with the students, school faculty, and AlphaBEST team members along the way!

Meet Your District Manager

Hi everyone, my name is Navella George, I have been a part of family and childcare for the last 16 years. During my career, I have worked in Essex and Union Counties. I take great pride in knowing that our team strives for excellence and quality in programming for AlphaBEST while promoting one of my favorite core values, “We put children first and”, “We take seriously the responsibility for influencing and educating thousands of students across the country every single day, arming them with skills they’ll use their whole lives”. We have an incredible team; who are dedicated and truly unique at what they do. Part of my role as District Manager is to build a successful team while positively impacting students, parents, and schools.

Meet Your Regional Manager
