You also receive some statements similar to report cards documenting your child development. I feel very lucky to have my daughter with them.

I started hiring sitters through Project Date Night last year, and I am so happy that I discovered…read morethem! When my daughter was a baby I only needed occasional sitters so I could go to appointments and the occasional date or party. Since my schedule was so random it was great to have so many sitters to choose from! When a receptionist asked me my availability I could look at the Project Date Night calendar and be able to book appointments with almost the same ease as before my daughter was born! As my daughter got older and I began to ease my way back to work I toured some daycare facilities and talked with some other families about whether a nanny share would be a good choice for me and my daughter, but nothing felt right. And so in October 2016, I talked with Project Date Night about if it would be possible to get a sitter three afternoons a week, which was my ideal schedule, and it turns out it was! And again, with the number of sitters, when my daughter's primary sitter goes on vacation or has something she needs to take care of, instead of me scrambling for childcare, Project Date Night has found someone to fill in. But enough about me. When I'm gone my daughter has a blast! These aren't the kind of sitters that strap a kid in a stroller for hours and chat on a park bench with their friends or sit at home and watch TV. After me and her dad, her primary sitter is the #3 person in her life, and they have so much fun together! They do everything from running errands in the neighborhood to taking the ferry to Dumbo to play on those playgrounds and ride Jane's Carousel. And when I had to go out to Suffolk County for a full day this spring, the two of them went to the Central Park Zoo. Plus her sitter, having more experience with kids than I do, is good at giving me advice about little things like different ways to childproof parts of our and signs that my daughter may be ready to start potty training.

She began just before her 2nd birthday with some verbal skills, and has completely blossomed while at the school. All the teachers and administrators are so friendly, welcoming and know each child by name (regardless of class they are in, everyone knows each other across the entire school) as well as most is the parents! The learning activities they put together are tied right into to key skills, and we have come home so impressed that at 4 our daughter already knows what "germination" is having learned about it in the Dragonflies class. Good food is provided for breakfast, lunch and 2 snacks, and you can drop off as early as 7:30am and pick up as late as 6:15 which is unheard of for most daycares. They know pretty much all the families are working and so try and make things as easy as possible to handle that working parent life. They also have a large backyard for outdoor play as well as rec room / gym with a rock climbing wall so the children get lots of exercise and fresh air. We could not have been happier with the education and care our daughter has received and we continue to sing Sunshine 3rd Ave's praises to everyone in the East Harlem community we meet. Thank you Sunshine!!!

Dear Sunshine Learning Center Team,…read more I am truly grateful for the phenomenal care and exceptional dedication you provide to the kids daily. Your commitment to both nurturing and educating them according to the DOE curriculum is truly remarkable. Your efforts do not go unnoticed, and I appreciate how you consistently go above and beyond. Special thanks to the administrative staff and my grandkids' teachers for their tireless efforts. Another special thanks goes out to Ms. Jess & the other teachers as well for making my wife and I feel incredibly welcome. Your dedication to going beyond the call of duty for the children is truly commendable. Thank you for creating such a nurturing environment for our little ones and for all the parents. Your efforts are truly appreciated. Warm regards, Mr. L. Deweese Ananias and Jaiaye

She's almost 2.5 now and couldn't possibly love the place more, and the wonderful ladies who are the caregivers and managers there. Everyone is beyond caring, attentive and have become like family. This is mainly because they take care of the kids like their own kids. The activities at the daycare are also so amazingly varied that the kids never get bored. The best part is that they do not operate the place in a rigid fashion, and make the whole experience comfortable for the parents as well. Ana was wonderful since day one and made sure the entire journey was fun for us and our daughter. Special thanks to Helen, Eka, IA, Nati & Natali.... Amazing amazing people with hearts of gold. Our daughter loves them so much. Ladybug has been so wonderful that we decided that Ladybug is the right choice for preschool as well. Wishing them the absolute best. 5 star all the way !!
