We started our daughter at HSH this past September when she was 10 months old. Although I was…read morehesitant to place her in daycare due to covid (and partly due to my separation anxiety), I felt comfort in learning about all of the precautions that Amanda & her team were taking to ensure the health and safety of all (and just for reference -- I'm the nervous, worry-wart type of mom). Aside from that, what really sealed the deal for me was their intimate family type of setting (the center has a 12 children max count), as I was specifically looking for a place that made my daughter feel at home -- and this was it. I was also thrilled to learn that fresh organic meals were made on site and served everyday. Needless to say, but my daughter is excited to arrive at daycare every morning and is equally happy at pick-up. On the development front, she's ahead of the curve. I attribute that to the nurturing and loving environment that HSH provides through their amazing and sweet teachers. I'll be forever grateful to them for everything they do.

I know many people who have sent their kids there (and one of my best friends went to Kim's when he was a kid--he's 29 years old now. He loved it!) . All the kids rave about it. My son has already told me that he wants to go back again for next year. He says it's the best camp. The staff are wholesome and down to earth. The camp has so many fun activities and adventures--without wearing down the campers. The camp is super chill and relaxed yet maintaining campers' safety and protection. Another great thing is the intimacy of the camp director and staff. They really get to know us and they are super approachable and down to earth. They do not have any pretension or arrogance. They're the real-deal. And they take such good care of their staff. I am a union organizer--so I look at these sort of things. I can tell that they are always looking out for the campers AND the staff. I am touched by the support that the administration offers to the staff. I love the staff. They're all fascinating individuals who really love the campers. We are so grateful that we have an opportunity to send our son to such a fabulous space. We will be surely sending our son there again. The camp is super flexible. For instance, I have summer Fridays so I send my son there for 4 days instead of 5. It's great to be able to save that kind of money The camp (Sandra) sends out an email with updates about the plans for the following day with instructions etc. Sandra is very responsive to emails and offers personalized care. She was very empathetic and flexible to me when I had a miscarriage while I was registering my son for camp. That sort of care is immeasurable. In addition, every morning--the adorable Camp Director Dan gives us an update. Dan is awesome. He's like a real new yorker. He's been doing this camp for 30+ years. He says that he has basically made a camp that he wished he had when he was a kid. My son loves Dan's stories...actually all kids' love Dan's stories. He is amazing.

We were looking for a camp that takes the kid to all those places we can't because we're working or we're too tired to drive there. Each day in Kim's Kids is a day trip in a bus to the beach, pool, bowling alley, aquarium, ice skating ring, and so on. It's affordable and they take good care of the children. It's a great feeling when you think about your child having a blast while you're in a zoom meeting. And then during the weekend you don't feel bad if you just want to stay home and relax because your child already went to the beach, the pool and all the fun places!

We were also all tears last week when he had his last day of daycare (starting 3k in Fall) because we knew how much he was going to miss the staff (Shelly and Yanet especially) and all his friends. He has grown so much over the last two years and his experience has been nothing but joyous. He loved marching into daycare each day and it was clear that he learned a lot and that they really cared for him. Home Sweet Home daycare switched midway through our time there to using an app called brightwheel which made communication and payments easy. We were also able to see almost daily pictures of what our son was up to on their Instagram. They accommodated every request we had and we are sincerely grateful for the experience we had with them. I highly recommend them as a daycare.
