My nephew goes to a terrific place in Woodside. Let me know if you want me to get you the name of it.

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

I am not the poster if this question, but I would LOVE to get the name of the place in Bayside as well as the place in Woodside if you got it.....

I have an eight month old I am trying to find daycare for.

Please help if you can.

Thanks,
Jenn

DS goes to Tutor time in Bayside and loves it. FM me if you have questions!

I hear "Crist The King "in Middle Village has a very good day care, it's on metropolitan ave. http://www.ctkrhs.org/

Thank you! I will check it out.

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

its a little far from you but DS went to marcus avenue day care. Its in Lake success, border of queens and nassau. Its a day care, but also a regular school. They hire teachers for all their classes, as opposed to day care workers like many places, so the pay is probably better.

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

DD will be going to Tutor Time in Bayside in March. Also, I think they're hiring (another friend told me).
It's off of Springfield Ave. on the 2nd fl.

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

How old is your baby? Do you know if they have another space available in their infant room? My daughter is eight months old. I tried to call today, but got an answering machine. Maybe they are closed for Presidents Day....

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

Do they have a website (for Marcus Avenue daycare), or can you give me a contact number or address? I tried to google it, but couldn't find anything.

Thank you!

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

I used to work at the Tutor Time in Bayside, from August of 2001-June of 2005.
They have an amazing program. I worked in the twaddler (2 yr olds) room for the first two years, and the three year old room for the last two years. I know that when I was leaving to get married, they were in the process of constructing a new, larger, infant room. I believe they now have a capacity for 16 babies between 6 weeks and 12 months. Someone please correct me if I am not correct.
They had many wonderful teachers on staff, they were very warm & caring. As a matter of fact, even though we live in Port Washington, TT is where I would send my DD if I had to go back to work. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask!

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

I am so thrilled to hear such great things re: Tutor Time in Bayside, DS will begin there in July. To answer someone's question, the infant room does now have the capacity for 16 infants, 6 weeks-10 mos with 4 teachers.

Re: any recs for daycare in queens?

thanks for all the great info everyine! i'm going to check them all out.
