Sally & Peter are amazing, very caring, very sweet. Their staff are also amazing, my son loves going to “school” and even cries when he has to leave 🤣. I wouldn’t want it any other way. The BEST daycare on Long Island!
Felicia FernandezMar 13, 2026We love Doodletime! My youngest was about 10 months when we started. She absolutely thrived there. They taught her sign language (she’s almost 2 and still does it!) and even some Spanish! They cooked all the food for kids (it always smelled amazing in the morning at drop off) and were very accommodating when my child had allergies. In the summer they were always outside in a shaded area with play houses and water toys. Sally always answered immediately and sent adorable pictures daily. Even though my kiddos are in school now, we will still be using Doodletime when we can!
Kelly ZacherAug 28, 2025We’ve been with Doodletime since our children were babies, and now, as they take their next big step into school, we are filled with so much gratitude for the care and love they received here. From the very beginning, the staff at Doodletime made us feel like family. They didn’t just “watch” our children—they nurtured them, taught them, encouraged them, and truly helped them grow. Every day we dropped them off knowing they were safe, happy, and surrounded by people who genuinely cared. It’s amazing to look back and see how much our kids have learned—not just letters and numbers, but kindness, independence, and confidence. The team was always communicative, patient, and so incredibly supportive, especially during the early years when everything was so new to us as parents. Saying goodbye is definitely bittersweet, but we are leaving with full hearts and so many cherished memories. We will always be grateful for the foundation you helped build in our children’s lives. Thank you for everything to Sally, Peter and every person at Doodletime 🩷
Ginger GuidoneAug 22, 2025I’ve trusted Sally and Peter with my 2 girls since they were 3 months old to preschool age. I never had to worry, they took care of everything and were so accommodating. My girls love Marisol and Maritza, they treat the kids like their own. I would highly recommend Doodletime.
kaitlin stoldtAug 18, 2025Doodletime is amazing! I live only two blocks away and noticed the sign when I first moved in six years ago. I always pass it when I go to stores and drive around the area. So, I of course did my research, and was very happy with what I found. Once I got pregnant with my son, I immediately called up to make sure I could take a tour and hopefully reserve a spot. My husband and I were so happy after the tour that we didn't even go looking at the other places we had set up. I have worked at daycares before, and am a teacher myself, so I knew right away this was the place for our little boy. From the moment we walked up to the door, they were warm, friendly, and informative. Knowing Mrs. Sally was in the medical field was also a plus, putting my new mom brain at rest a bit. Knowing they were licensed by NYS was also a big deal. The spaces they provide for the kids are perfect. They have both an inside area, and an outdoor area, which are full of toys and activities for all ages. The staff are all amazing and become like family, sending messages and pictures to keep you up to date and involved with whats going on. Whenever I picked up my son, I could tell he had a good time and was well taken care of. The Facebook page warms my heart. I love seeing all the kids playing together, taking care of each other, and just being in the moment. My in-laws who live in another state loved being able to be a part of the Facebook page so they could keep up with everything in real time. They always commented on the cute videos when my son had his cameos! My family and I just had to make the hard decision to move out of state, and I find myself sad that he won't be attending Doodletime anymore. I envisioned my son getting to grow up with Mrs. Sally, her staff, and the amazing families who are a part of Doodletime. I will miss them all so much, so will Connor. Thank you for the amazing memories we've made in the short amount of time we were a part of the family! We hope you will remember us as much as we will remember you all! We'll miss you! Lots of Love: Amanda, Brian, and Connor.
Amanda LandersJul 27, 2024Ms. Sally and her staff at Doodletime runs a great daycare. When my child was under her care for the past year he learned so many new things and made many friends, and was well cared for! It was truly a sad day when he had to leave to start pre-k. Would 100% recommend this daycare to any parent searching for one. Thanks a million once more to Sally, Peter, and all of their wonderful staff who took great care of my precious son. We miss you guys dearly.
