years since 1999. The director Deborah leiva, has over 20 years experience in early childhood development and education.

loving environment that promotes social and emotional growth through
supervised play and a flexible daily routine.
( Inwood Location ) With Three teachers on staff, we are able to provide
close supervision and a wide variety of activities including art,
music, American sign, Piano, fine and gross motor activities, imaginary play, and
circle time for the older children in our group. To enhance our music
curriculum, a music specialist comes in once a week to run a music and
movement class. We have a fenced-in yard and large strollers, enabling
us to spend time outdoors on a daily basis (weather permitting, of
course).
Newark Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:45-5:30, and we welcome enrollments on a part-time basis. (full days
only).If you would like to visit the program or have any questions

Our Philosophy
Little Daydreamers Daycare is a developmental early
childhood program that provides a rich learning environment in which
children can explore, interact and learn through the many facets of
their play. It is a constantly evolving environment where we routinely
change the toys, activities and materials available, adapting to the
children’s social, emotional and cognitive needs and abilities as they
develop and grow.
From the motor planning involved in
climbing, running, skipping, and jumping, to learning the various ways of solving
social conflicts – we encourage and mentor the children to use their
minds, their bodies and their emerging expressive language to navigate
the day to day challenges of growing and learning.
While the acquisition of “substantive” knowledge is an expected goal
for toddlers and young pre-schoolers, at Little Daydreamers we accomplish
this goal through play. We provide a language rich environment,
including a small library of children’s literature. Through books, art,
music, American Signing and imaginary play, just to name a few, the children
learn to identify colors, shapes, numbers and the letters of the
alphabet. They learn to count and to identify their body parts. They
are fully prepared to meet the expectations set before them when they
leave Little Daydreamers and move on to pre-school and beyond.
While this kind of learning is important, at Little Daydreamers we believe
there is much more. Here we strive to provide a loving, stimulating
place where children learn to solve problems and are coached to use
their emerging language to become great friends and great people. We
model and teach kindness, love, generosity and thoughtfulness.
( Inwood location only) Two snacks, lunch and dinner are provided daily. As
an expression of our commitment to the highest standards of child
nutrition we provide a wholesome balanced diet comprised largely of
organic and natural / Farm fresh foods.
