It's been so wonderful to see her thrive - from learning the dance to her favorite songs, to developing new skills, to becoming a bold and confident explorer, to learning how to interact and bond with her peers. It's clear that her teachers are invested in her growth and wellbeing. It's also so rare to find a daycare in New York that not only has a beautiful facility (LIGHT-FILLED classrooms! REAL windows! Beautiful brownstone! Amazing yard they play in every day! Montessori-like furniture and toys!) but also offers an exceptional, fun, creative, and diverse program. The Brightwheel app is great for getting photo updates of what our daughter is up to each day, and we always look forward to Miss Deborah's weekly newsletter. An emerging parent community is also actively involved in building a positive and enabling environment for our kids. Needless to say, I would enthusiastically recommend Katmint to any parent.

I don't generally leave reviews however it was so bad I have to. Especially being that the " good…read morereviews" are from yrsss ago. If you're a mom the cares how your child is treated, DO NOTTT enroll them here. First off, miss Ashley. Should not be around children. Shes aggressive and puts fear in the kids. Says things like " Oh we handle them" like if they are not listening. And the demeanor and tone I was in shock. My daughter was also coming home with nail marks in her side rib and she would tell me during bath time how ms Ashley would firmly grab pinch and twist her side stomach which made sense where those marks were coming from. It certainly wasn't me and my daughter always has short nails. Also never had marks like this until she started here. Then my daughter would come back home with allll the lunch I sent her with and when I'd ask her why she didn't eat any of it she would tell me " because miss Ashley said NO" So your telling me while all the other kids where eating they had my kid starving and watching others have their food? And this happened numerous times and when I asked the other teacher in the class they would just look at me like " yeah it's true" and shrugged their shoulders like if they knew it was true. Had it not been true they would have said so. Why not let a child have her food of beyond me! Plus these "teacher / staff " they have working with the kids are not qualified to be caring for children they have -0 patients and u can tell they dislike kids and are only there for a check. The first day I picked her up from here her juice cup was filled to the top how I had filled it at home. They go out for park play 2-3x a day the school says. When I picked her up she downed her bottle completely and asked me for a OJ from the store SHE FINISHED THE ENTIRE THING. Like if they don't give this their juice or water throughout the day. If you care about how ur child if being treated. Please choose any other center. All those super old 5 star reviews need to be erased bc this experience now is what it truly is. Enroll wisely mommies. Mind you my girl is a ver verbal 4 yr old and communicates extremely well. So she's very capable of telling me exactly what is going on without it being misleading

The large outdoor space on the roof serves as a giant playground and there is a lot of fun stuff going on there, like water games in the summer. In addition, there is a hall for indoor sports, so definitely the kids have a lot of space. Our son is very talkative and told us about every good or bad experience he had. Never did he complain about the teachers or the school per se, and never did he mention that they were just dropped off to watch TV or did he confirm the complaints listed in a review from 2016 on this page. (I recommend you go to Stagg Street to discard complaints listed in the bad 2016 review first hand - those are absurd.) If our son had something negative to report, it was always unconcerning kids stuff like "that boy took a toy away from me." What we are positively surprised with is that we got all this for USD150/week. In our neighbourhood daycares of inferior quality compared to Stagg Street charge 1,800/month or more, places without any outdoor space for example. I am not giving 5 stars here because the engagement of other parents was disappointing at times (e.g. when help was needed for outside activities). Whatever your final choice is, I recommend you at least give Stagg Street a visit!

We cannot recommend Daddy's Daycare enough! Over the past few years, our daughter has truly thrived…read morein this warm, nurturing, and supportive environment. From her very first day, Vadim and the entire team made us feel like part of a family, and we were continuously impressed by the level of care, attention, and dedication they provide to every child. Under their guidance, our daughter grew in confidence, curiosity, and independence. The friendships she formed, the engaging activities like cooking and arts and crafts, as well as the thoughtful approach to early childhood development including incredible music classes with Tami and lessons learning letters and numbers, all played a huge role in our daughter's happiness and growth. It's clear the staff genuinely love what they do, and it reflects in the way they interact with the children--creating a space where they feel safe, loved, and encouraged to learn. Another aspect we loved about Daddy's Daycare is the well-rounded care they offer, including breakfast, lunch, and snacks which make life so much easier for busy parents. The outdoor play space has also been a huge highlight, giving the children a safe and fun environment to explore, move, and play every day especially in the summer. The staff also send amazing photos everyday day which are wonderful keepsakes. We only wish they offered 3K, because we would have loved for her to stay even longer. We are incredibly grateful for the lasting impact Daddy's Daycare has had on our daughter's early years, and we are already looking forward to our second daughter hopefully joining this amazing community. Thank you, Vadim and team, for giving our daughter such a wonderful start in life. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Our child attended this daycare for a year, from the age of 3 months until 15 months old. We have…read moregenerally been happy with the teachers, as they provided great care and education to our child, who enjoyed coming to daycare. The turnover of teachers is quite high; that did not seem to affect our child, but if changing teacher every 3-4 months is a problem, you should think about it. Our main issue is with the director, and with deliberately ambiguous policies that are written in a language that even a lawyer we spoke to had difficulties understanding. In particular, we paid a month of "pre-paid tuition" (this is the language used in the contract) that was never used for tuition. Due to us moving, we discussed the cancellation with the owner/director. We were asked to provide a 2 months notice, which is unusually long, as most daycares only ask for a 2 weeks notice. The wording in the contract lead us to believe that this "pre-paid tuition" would either be used towards the last month or tuition, or it would be given back to us, as we provided a 2 months cancellation notice. At no point in this process we were told that this full month of tuition would not be given back to us. Basically, we paid 13 months of tuition, and received 12 months of service. No explanation was given to us as to why we would have to pay an extra month of tuition even after providing a 2 months cancellation notice. Even the lawyer said that the wording in the contract is ambiguous. If you need a lawyer to interpret the contract of a daycare, perhaps you should be suspicious. Parents should not need a lawyer to understand the contract for a daycare. If the owner of the daycare wrote a contract that even a lawyer has a hard time interpreting, you should ask yourself what motives the owner may have.

I sent my daughter here from 6 months-almost 3 years old…read more Nervous about returning to work, I had been indecisive about childcare scenarios throughout my maternity leave. Before deciding on Eladia's, I interviewed nanny candidates, explored nanny shares, and visited 4-5 other daycares in Park Slope and downtown Brooklyn. Eladia's was the last place I toured and I made my decision on the spot; it was the first time I felt at ease with the idea of leaving my baby in the care of others. PROS: The accessibility of the site director Pre-enrollment, it was easy to schedule a tour and email questions. Responsiveness over email is very important to me and I thought it was a good sign going forward if I ever wanted to check in on my child's day, etc. The people We experienced all three rooms - infant, toddler and preschool. Our daughter liked all of the head and assistant teachers and vice versa. The staff seemed genuinely happy to see us every morning and showed concern any time my daughter was out sick. The sense of community Eladia's is a cross between a large, established daycare chain and a cozy, at-home daycare. We got to know the staff and other families, and enjoyed the days the school opened its doors to parents to participate in circle time and have holiday celebrations. The education! From the start, my daughter was exposed to language, reading, math, science, arts, Spanish, etc. While I am of course biased, I think my daughter had an early recognition of colors, shapes, letters, numbers, etc.. Outdoor space There is a backyard deck where the kids play in good weather. CONS: Teacher turnover There were some abrupt staffing changes in the toddler room that I wish we were given more notice on. Cost On the expensive side compared to other local daycares we toured. It is not a nut-free school It was a challenge managing my daughter's nut allergies here. Twice I saw that my daughter's teacher had a container of nuts on the classroom shelves within reach. While I can't restrict other people's diets, I wished for greater sensitivity. I was also nervous about lunchtime and other children's PB&Js. OVERALL: We had a great experience at Eladia's. Even after we moved to another neighborhood, I still walked 20 minutes to take my daughter there. Eventually it became unsustainable, but if Eladia's opened a location where I am now, I would send my kids (now there are two) there in a heartbeat!

As soon as my husband, daughter and I attended the Eladia's tour, we got a fantastic vibe from the staff and knew instantly that we wanted to send our baby there. I still remember Diana (Director at the time of the 5th Avenue centre) making our baby laugh through the whole tour! Eladia's made us feel very at ease with the idea of leaving our baby in their care. Our daughter attended all three baby, toddler and preschool class rooms and loved them all. We absolutely loved the curriculum that Eladia's offered and found that our daughter thrived their and learned at a rapid rate. In addition to the amazing teachers and staff at Eladia's, there was a great sense of community and we really enjoyed the days the school opened its doors to parents to participate in circle time and have special holiday celebrations. We got to know the staff and other families really well and still keep in touch with the directors of the school today after leaving Park Slope to relocate overseas. We have very fond memories of the school and hope to visit Max, Diana and the team when next in Brooklyn!

We started our daughter at HSH this past September when she was 10 months old. Although I was…read morehesitant to place her in daycare due to covid (and partly due to my separation anxiety), I felt comfort in learning about all of the precautions that Amanda & her team were taking to ensure the health and safety of all (and just for reference -- I'm the nervous, worry-wart type of mom). Aside from that, what really sealed the deal for me was their intimate family type of setting (the center has a 12 children max count), as I was specifically looking for a place that made my daughter feel at home -- and this was it. I was also thrilled to learn that fresh organic meals were made on site and served everyday. Needless to say, but my daughter is excited to arrive at daycare every morning and is equally happy at pick-up. On the development front, she's ahead of the curve. I attribute that to the nurturing and loving environment that HSH provides through their amazing and sweet teachers. I'll be forever grateful to them for everything they do.
