We toured Little Daydreamers 2 (LDD2) on the day before our son was born. We were so impressed by…read morethe warmth and professionalism shown by Brenda, Kexia and their team that we put down our deposit right away. In fact, we often say that choosing LDD2 was our first big decision as parents -- and we could not have been happier with how the experience has turned out. LDD2 provided a safe, welcoming, healthy and nurturing environment for our son and we fully recommend this daycare to any parent in the area. Care: Since our son's very first day at LDD2 when he was 5 months old, Brenda, Kexia and the team have felt like an extension of our own family. In particular, we would like to thank Kexia, Site Director and Ydalia for their help and support during our time at LDD2. They are truly gifted caregivers and we feel blessed that they were among the first and most frequent caregivers for our child in his first two years. Communication: The team at LDD2 provides very clear and frequent communications throughout the day through an app and there's a live camera feed. We always felt up-to-date throughout the day and the staff always gave us a review of the day when we picked up our son. This communication really helped us as new parents -- we always knew if he had a good nap, had eaten well, when his diaper was changed and all the other little details new parents want to hear about. Organization/Professionalism: As the team director, Brenda was an excellent partner to us as parents. Billing was simple and efficient, and updates about staffing, COVID protocols and other topics were always communicated to us clearly and with plenty of notice. Brenda genuinely strives to run the best daycare center in the area. Our son was at LDD2 through all the various waves of COVID (and subsequent waves of RSV and other viruses as the world reopened!) and Brenda and Kexia's commitment to run a healthy daycare was fantastic and far exceeded what we have heard is the norm at other daycares. All to say, we are very grateful to the LDD2 team and recommend them wholeheartedly.

The caregiving staff is wonderful, there are many classes provided for children, 4 meals a day, and easy communication with families through an app, newsletter, and webcam. They go to the park every day, and do arts activities as well, with dance, movement and music classes. Our child learned so much, we are astounded by what he can do at home!

This place saved my…read moregrandson's life and also provided support to my daughter who had severe depression after giving birth. My grandson has been diagnosed autism. In his early years he was nonverbal and acted out with frustration and aggression. They provided a team of teachers and support staff to help him get through these difficult times and learn the many things that he needed to calm his emotions and learn. It's hard to remember when he was going through such difficulties because he has learned skills that assist him in managing his emotions. They also provided support to my daughter and gave her the space to work through her conflicting emotions. I'll always be grateful for these committed individuals who were there for my family when they needed it the most.

HORRIBLE DAY CARE !!

There is minimal interaction with Reina .. she cracks the door and takes the kids at drop off and brings the kids to door when u pick them up .. any communication is written in letters and placed in ur diaper bags . I asked multiple times if she could take a picture of sleeping arrangements or when they were eating. Never received any reassurance. It was always "I'm so busy , I will when I can " We were willing to look past everything mentioned above but then this happened : Notified us the night before she was closing for nys mandated training , claims she sent a flyer in our diaper bag , but we never received it . we get it .. people make mistakes , we asked if we could have 1 day credit for next week as we were doing part time and only paying for 2 days a week . Her words, "I cannot do that ." It was her mistake yet we had to pay for it . Overall...she is a nice lady , but horrible lack of communication and unreliable

Man, sending your kid to be taken care of by strangers can be tough…read more I was fully prepared to hate every daycare we toured and subsequently convince my wife that I should quit my job and take care of our little girl full time, because no one was good enough to do the job.* But we loved Changing Tomorrow as soon as we walked inside. The location may not be ideal (for us or in general - it's located in a construction-clogged area of Downtown Brooklyn), but the facilities are excellent, and the people are wonderful. It is brand new, clean, and very well run. It's as if they took stock of the bougie parents in the neighborhood, and decided to create a daycare that offered everything they might want: Flexible schedules and long hours (open 7 am to 7 pm). Nurse on site at all times. Organic food catered for the kids (after they turn 1). Montessori methods that focus on the cognitive, social, and emotional development of your kid. Frequent activities like dance, soccer, finger-painting, and trips to the park when it's nice out. Best of all, they have monthly meetings where they take suggestions for what the parents would like to see from the school, and they actually try and implement those suggestions where it makes sense. (I wish those meetings weren't at 7 am, but I suppose getting up early is part of being a parent.) We're only a couple of weeks in at this point, but so far I have to say that the staff is just amazing. They put up with the minute and specific instructions we (and I imagine all parents) throw at them on a daily basis, and they are shockingly on top of the Brightwheel app that they use to keep us updated on our child throughout the day. Yesterday I got over a dozen photos and videos of my daughter, plus updates on her naps, feedings, diaper changes, and more. My kid still cries every time I drop her off, but it's really gratifying to see a smiling photo of her just a little bit later so I know she isn't crying all day. A huge thank you to Meridith the Education Director, Ms. Victoria, Ms. Janiece, Ms. Maria, and all the other wonderful people that work here. I'm constantly surprised that the teachers in the other age groups (that don't spend the day caring for her) recognize my daughter on sight when we walk in the door; it makes the place feel a lot more like a family. Thank you all for taking care of our daughter; I know it isn't easy, and we really appreciate how much you care. It makes it a little bit easier to leave her with you. ____________ *And also because I'm a progressive man that knows my wife can handle the breadwinning duties in this modern world. Definitely not because I'm tired of working and need to be supported in this lifestyle to which I've become accustomed.

Enrolling our daughter in Changing Tomorrow Academy was one of the best decisions we ever made…read more We had originally planned to send her to a daycare just around the corner, but when that fell through were in a desperate situation. Amanda was so wonderful and found a place for us at very short notice. We weren't expecting much -- we were just happy to have found somewhere so quickly -- but our daughter flourished and thrived under their care. Amanda was extremely communicative and seemed to know everything about how our child was developing. She is so great with the children and just an extremely positive force to be around. We never worried for a second when our daughter was there. The teachers were wonderful at helping her adapt to her first daycare, and then helping her transition to the toddler class. We got regular updates and photographs throughout the day that regularly made us laugh. They came up with really great ideas for activities. They calmed us when we were worried and gave us tips to help her along. The facilities here are amazing, but the staff are what makes it great. We HIGHLY recommend Changing Tomorrow Academy and will be eternally grateful for how they took care of our little one.
