As a first time parent, we found that there aren't a ton of daycare facilities in our area with reviews so it made the search for one a bit lengthy on our end. The ladies who run this daycare showed such a level of professionalism from phone calls, texts, emails and on-site visits that I just wasn't getting from any of my other inquiries. We are extremely happy with our decision as is she and the quality of care speaks for itself!

Our son was enrolled at 8 months old and had a wonderful experience. The staff were so kind and…read morenurturing and they made him feel loved there. They took trips to the park when the weather was nice and celebrated birthdays and holidays all year long. They taught our baby boy so many things! He loved their songs and knows all the movements to the "wheels on the bus." He learned to eat with a fork. They also follow a structured routine that children find comforting because they know what to expect during the day. Each child gets a lot of individualized attention - the teachers get down on the floor and play with the children. This was important to us because children learn through play: making cars move, opening boxes, stacking blocks, etc. The teachers were genuine and they were engaged in developing each child's curiosity and creativity. We recently had to move and were sad to say goodbye to this magical place, but we feel so lucky that our son got off to a great start there.

Our daughter has been attending since she was just 6 months old and is now a thriving 2.5-year-old who loves going every day. Over the past two years, she's learned so much--she can count to 20, recognize letters and their sounds, and has developed a wonderfully expressive vocabulary. Beyond literacy and numeracy skills, TNP has given her essential emotional tools: she's learned how to recognize and regulate big feelings with breathing techniques and gentle guidance. She's even started potty training with confidence! From day one, the care and thoughtfulness have been evident. As a baby, she was fed every 3 hours and given all the cuddles and comfort she needed. Now, she enjoys 3 healthy meals a day provided by the daycare. (Truly an unexpected bonus given how affordable the daycare is!) She's also soaking up Spanish too! The variety of activities keeps her engaged and happy--community walks, sprinkler time in the summer, music and art classes, and plenty of free play. She's learned manners, how to take turns, and how to be a respectful friend. She's built a sweet circle of friends she enjoys seeing outside of daycare, too. As parents, we've found not just a daycare, but a supportive and inclusive parenting community. We can't recommend The Nurturing Place highly enough.

She gives you a break down of what activities the kids will be doing day by day. The staff, they are so tentative to the kids, and they are treated as if they are one of their own family members. I remember going into my appointment and my son just smiling and he ran and gave a hug. It sold me, and before you ask yourself why, understand when kids are just around family they are a little iffy about going to others. That's when i knew he saw something more than i did. And i listened to it. They have helped me in so many ways, it's like Im dropping him off to my sisters house. He's comfortable there and cared for. As a first time parent, it's not easy to let your little one go and put them in the care of someone else's arms. But i would choose them over and over again. If i choose to have another child, i know i have a family thats more than welcoming to my child and me. Your child will definitely be in great hands.

During our son's "graduation" at Magenta class today, there were many teary eyes (from the parents that is, the kids had no clue). Why I chose Park West two years ago: 1) It started while I was with my son at the local CPW playground, I remembered being impressed with how well behaved the kids from the school were. Seriously, how were they able to get these little 3 year olds to be so good? 2) the administration: exmissions (yes a word you'll come to know as a Manhattan parent), was very thorough. Since the school ends at 6 years old, they are not incentivized to shunt you to their elementary program. During the period when we were applying for elementary schools, I had almost daily updates on deadlines to be aware of. Very helpful when the whole process is ridiculously complicated. Office workers are very approachable 3) Montessori system: My son was shy and not the type that "opens up" if he were pushed/cajoled/bribed to do what the other kids were doing. I needed a place that allowed for him to progress at his own rate with less rigidity (I had to overcome with my tiger mom instincts). 4) Hours- they have a 12 month option, enrichment programs to 6 PM. Given that most parents there have to work, it's nice to know that this school realizes that and works with it. Two years later, it proved the right decision for us. At four years and a half years old, he is reading simple books, dressing himself, and counting to 100 along with his classmates. He's attending a gifted and talented public school program in September. I hope this is helpful. I wish you best of luck on this crazy process.
