About the Provider

Description: Sunshine Daycare provides educational infant, toddler, and preschool programs to children ages six weeks through 5 years of age. Our experienced, nurturing staff is passionate about showing children, as early as possible, that learning isn’t a chore— it’s a lot of fun!

An Exceptional Early Childhood Center
As a matter of convenience for working parents, we are open from 7:30a.m. to 6:30p.m., Monday through Friday.
Our age-specific curriculum is designed to stimulate and cultivate the student’s intellect in a fun way that makes them want to come in every day.
We believe that a healthy mind can’t be attained without a healthy body, so we provide a nutritious breakfast, lunch and snack every day.
Sunshine pre-school programs have been servicing diverse families and communities in Brooklyn, Manhattan and the Bronx since 2004. Our universal goal is to offer affordable family solutions for parents while inspiring a passion for knowledge in children at a young age.
We are proud of our affordable, top-quality Pre-K programs, so as a means to extend our services to a broad range of financial abilities, we accept all New York City vouchers issued by HRA and ACD.

Sunshine’s Philosophy
We are an Early Childhood center that serves not as a mere daycare center, but as a place where your child can begin to build the foundation for a life of educational pursuits.
We treat every activity as a chance for your child to learn and grow. No activity is without an enriching purpose behind it.
We feel that by keeping your children intellectually and socially stimulated, they will hit the ground running while attending school in their later years.
Communication between our parents, children and faculty is extremely important to us, so we have an “open door policy” to ensure every question, concern, or issue is addressed.
