I work for an agency that assess Children across NYC. Some of my assesments are completed in daycares. I was very impressed with the routine that daycare has developed for the children. When I was conducting the ongoing assesments I was pregnnat and previously to give birth I already knew that at the ageof six months my son was going to joint the Little Friends Daycare of NY. Jackie y Maria Teresa are persons that really care about my Child's well being and they have been instrumental on helping my child to reach his developmental milestones. This is place where no only they take care of our children but they teach basic values such as respect and love for others. I can reassure you that out of all the daycare that I have assessed this is the best.
