  • Dropping off a child at a daycare is never an easy task. The constant worrying, the lack of care and often times the inability to communicate effectively can be deathly or feel like it. However, Learning Play Daycare has made the transition from a stay at home mom to working mom as seamless and possible. Dru and her staff, at Learning Play Daycare, allows you to feel safe, comfortable and gives you a sense of community that all families need while dropping off our most prized possessions (our children). My son is always clean and happy during drop off and pick up. The staff at Learning Play Daycare communicate well and often times send pictures and videos. They play water activities during hot summer days and have even had a staff of the Yonkers Public Library come read them a book and have a puppet show. How awesome is that! During my drop off days, I always smell warm meals being made, and children full of life. The staff is always happy and willing to discuss any concerns I may have. All in all, I feel absolutely blessed to have them show my son kindness, patience’s and I even dare to say, LOVE! Thank you Dru and her staff at Learning Play Daycare for my mommy community. We should all be so lucky to have Learning Play Daycare in our children’s lives!

  • I highly recommend learning play daycare. Everyone here cared for our child as if she was their own. We sent our daughter here for 3 years and our experience was amazing. From the healthy home cooked meals to the engaging curriculum our daughter loved every minute of day care and still talks about it to this day.

  • I was really nervous to put my baby at daycare when he was about to turn 1 yeard old. I am so glad my friend recommended me and so lucky that Dru had space for him. My son loves being there and his sitters so much. They are so family oriented, always so gentle and caring with the kids. The sitters are constantly teaching the kids new abilities. My son comes home with a new vocabulary word every day. Anyone who is still skeptical and looking for the best care for their kids, this is the perfect place.

  • I had such a wonderful experience with Learning Play Daycare. The staff is incredibly caring, attentive and always made my child feel welcome and loved. The facility is clean, well organized and has a variety of fun and educational activities that keep the kids engaged and happy. I also appreciated the excellent communication from the staff. They kept us updated daily and were always available to answer any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Learning Play Daycare to any parent looking for a reliable and loving daycare.

  • I love Learning & play daycare and so does my baby! He started at a year and a half, most of the time people feel nervous leaving their child at daycare for the first time, but the owner and staff made me and my baby feel so safe and welcomed. My baby loves learning, playing and making new friends. I give them a 10 out of 10. My baby cries when he has to leave, if that doesn’t say excellent child care service I don’t know what does.

    Mercedes ArroyoAug 30, 2024
  • I cannot thank Dru and her team enough for all the support they have provided to our family in the last 1.5 years. I honestly didn’t know what we’re going to do about childcare and I was just constantly praying that we meet people who care. My son learned a lot and developed to be a happy, smart and loving kid. Learning Play has been a true blessing for our family.

What ages does Learning Play Daycare care for?

Does this page show inspection results for Learning Play Daycare?

No. New York's public child care roster carries no violation or inspection fields, and no separate statewide dataset of them was found, so nothing here reflects Learning Play Daycare's inspection history either way. Look the provider up in the OCFS child care search to read its violations and whether they were corrected.
