Audra and her team are highly professional, organized and most importantly caring and loving to our little boy. Since we are first time parents, we were very nervous about this next step for our toddler, but the transition was quite seamless.

The staff is very friendly and takes good care of the kids. My daughter is very happy to come every day and you can see that in her face which is a piece of mind. They do a lot of activities : arts& craft, painting . They celebrate all holidays, and they always have the kids entertained. My daughter has improved her social skills as well. Audra is very accommodating with your schedule and she's always good communicating. They send me pictures and updates of my daughters activities daily and always keeps me posted. If you are looking for a safe family oriented environment this is the place to send your kids. Thank you Audra and staff for your amazing job.

Mom's Family Daycare has a special…read moreplace in my heart because it's where I trusted my 6 month old to go as a nervous post partum stressed mom ... and I couldn't have imagined sending him anywhere else. I couldn't afford a traditional nanny and let's face it Queens Mom's there aren't a lot of options for under 2 years old that don't feel like a "institution", that has a small home environment where your child feels nurtured and cared for in an individual level and where you aren't worried about them all day. I never felt my son was neglected and he always came home happy and well fed. Not to mention that if you aren't Jewish and cannot take off those holidays your options for daycares are even more limited. And I'm an anal lawyer type who researched every daycare within the Queens Forest Hills Rego Park vicinity. I was honestly so sad to leave them due to my move to Ca in December when he was 15 months. Thank you Maria and family fo taking care of my baby boy.

They don't advertise, and it's purely by word of mouth. That makes it even better. I love the environment, and both kids absolutely loved being there. What I love most is that everyone there, from Maria to Adela to Rosie are experts in child raising. They know if someone is amiss even before we can put our finger on it. It's like having a set of experts who can diagnose a problem. For the older children, the 2-4 year old side is a great place for socialization and bonding. Honestly, Mom's family daycare is one of the reasons why we made sure to stay in the neighborhood -- it was that important to us.

My daughter attended for over a year before transitioning to 3K in September 2025, and I truly can't say enough about how positive our experience was. From day one, the entire team made me feel at ease leaving her each morning, which is no small thing when you're balancing work and motherhood. That peace of mind meant everything to me. She grew so much during her time there socially, emotionally, and developmentally. It was clear every single day that she was cared for with patience, warmth, and genuine attention. The staff always kept communication open, which I really appreciated, and they consistently shared helpful tips and insights that supported me as a parent too. What speaks volumes is that even after transitioning to 3K, we'll be returning for summer 2026. That alone says how much trust and love we have for this place. I'm so grateful to have found a community that not only cared for my daughter, but also supported me. Little Forest People will always hold a special place in our hearts.

TPD will forever be our favorite memory of Forest Hills and New York! Our two children were there…read morefrom mid-2020 to mid-2022 and we left only because we moved out of the state. We first found this gem because COVID restrictions shut down our previous daycare and forced us to find a new care option, but in hindsight, it was such a blessing in disguise and a transformative experience! The owner and teachers were so loving and caring - they prepared freshly-cooked meals from scratch everyday, ensured our young children propelyr rest after lunch and avoid being over-stimulated and going home cranky and difficult for the parents. Though not a Montessori school, they used many similar techniques and spirits. For example, they emphasized learning through five senses, taught practical life skills (like dressing oneself) and emotional regulation along with academic knowledge, involved children in hands-on real-life projects such as making their own snacks (with ingredients prepared and process guided by the teachers like squeezing orange juice), encouraged older children to help younger children, encouraged self-expression through weekly talent shows, and fostered a community among the families by facilitating weekend playdates. The experience was entirely different from the traditional programming in a chain daycare center. As a result, one of our children transformed from a timid child to an outgoing one, and we were embraced into a strong community with long-lasting connections.

We always say it takes a village to raise a child, and Toadlers Pond was a HUGE part of our…read morevillage.  We sent in our son when he turned two years old, and due to the pandemic had never been in a daycare environment before, or even had many playdates or much exposure to other adults, and over the next year and a half the TPD staff worked with him on language, eating skills, coordination, confidence, and so many other things we didn't even expect (like facts about the different U.S. states).  What originally attracted us to Toadlers Pond was the passion and caring of the staff which was evident from our initial video tour, plus the incredible, fresh home-cooked food, which our son still misses very much and talks about.  We also credit TPD for (at least) 80% of our son's speedy potty learning progress, and helping him become a "big boy" about this typically anxiety-inducing chapter of toddlerhood, all with ease and a positive approach, keeping us up to speed every step of the way.  The staff were fantastic about giving us a glimpse into our child's day through pictures and videos posted on their private facebook group, and we absolutely loved the Friday talent shows.  By the end of his tenure at the Pond, our son was beyond prepared for the next step in his education, and we appreciate everything Toadlers Pond did to get him there. We will always be Toadies at heart, and can't wait for our daughter to become a Tadpole too!

With small class sizes and true 1:2 adult to child ratios, they are able to take such good care of every child and we are so grateful to them for helping our child become the sweet, funny, chatty, charming, outgoing, kind and thoughtful little toddler / little boy he is becoming. Their structure (meals, snacks, walks, naps, playtime), programs (art work, language, sign language, music, incoming specialty teachers) and superior level of care and concern are unmatched. Our son has learned so much from Mirna, Yurkenia, Rebecca, Lily and the outside teachers that come in on a regular basis. He often surprises us with a song, sign or knowledge of a color or animal. We highly recommend Little Daydreamers to any parents. Your child will be safe, loved and will learn a great deal!
