Recent parent reviews

  • Our 3-year-old has been at Sunnyside for 7 months now and we have had a wonderful experience. We plan to stay with them as long as possible! We trust and appreciate the staff's warm family atmosphere, the wide range of play-based and academic engagement our daughter gets, and we value that she's also receieving a lot of bilingual exposure as we are bilingual as well but primarily use English at home. Ms. Joana is our dedicated and powerhouse lead teacher - she and Valentine and all the other staff have been the most welcoming and steady presence. We love the small and nurturing community Sunnyside offfers, the price point that feels manageable to us, and all the ways our little one is growing by being there. Highly recommend.

  • I like many parents was initially scared of trying any daycare because of the uncertainty of staff at daycares. I am so blessed to have come across this daycare and I am happy to report that my daughter has been there for 2 years now and has learned so much and loves her teachers. This is a family-owned daycare, and I can't say enough great things about this daycare.

  • Sunnyside is an amazing daycare, with quality curriculum and great staff. Our kids love attending here, and as both a parent and teacher, I am very satisfied with the quality of care they receive. I'd highly recommend them to any and everyone.

  • My family loves this place! Our 3 and 7 year old absolutely adore coming here. The staff is amazing, friendly and professional and we have seen a huge difference in our 3 year old's vocabulary and skills. We love the family feel of this place and are so grateful we found them! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality daycare and safe place to look after their babies :)

  • Our son went here for over a year and I can't say enough about how great they are! They treated him as one of their own and they definitely take the time to get to know every member of the family. Our daughter was too young to attend but we very much wished she could have! It's very affordable and they have amazing field trips for the kiddos! Miss you guys! The only reason we left was because we moved out of state.

  • The staff here is top notch. My daughter loved it here and hopefully next summer will be returning. They offer great structure to help prepare your child for school. Everyone is super friendly and even I'll miss seeing them each day.

What ages does SUNNYSIDE DAYCARE CENTER accept?
