Recent parent reviews
We have been with Trish for several years with both of our children, and we couldn’t have asked for a better daycare provider. She communicates so well, celebrates every milestone—big and small—and has been a true partner in helping us raise our kids. Trish is patient, deeply invested in each child’s development, and her preschool curriculum has prepared our kids beautifully for their next steps. Most importantly, she has always made them feel safe and loved, treating them like part of her own family. While we’re sad to be leaving, we are incredibly grateful for all the years of care, support, and love she’s given. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a provider who will truly nurture and invest in their children.

What kind of child care is Little Explorers?
- New York licenses Little Explorers as a Group Family Day Care (GFDC), which is care in a provider's home with an assistant, for a larger group than family day care. The category comes from the state's own register, not from the provider.
What ages does Little Explorers care for?

Which school district is Little Explorers in?

Does this page show inspection results for Little Explorers?
- 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 Little Explorers's inspection history either way. Look the provider up in the OCFS child care search to read its violations and whether they were corrected.
