Why this rating
This daycare earned 3 out of 5 stars overall. Process quality reflects a QUALITYstarsNY rating of Level 1 (out of 5).

The structural rating also includes New York's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. New York caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:5, and preschool ratios at 1:8. Lead teachers must hold a Child Development Associate (CDA). Teachers must complete 15 hours of annual training.
