Description: Positive Beginnings, Inc. is a special education preschool in the Queens area servicing children ages 3 to 5 years.
Located in both the Flushing and Middle Village areas, we are centrally located and easily accessible by major highways and public transportation systems.
Our nurturing environment caters to children with special needs, and their families to provide quality educational programs tailored to enhance the child's development.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
