Schools near Fishkill, NY

“We absolutely LOVE Blossoming Minds! Both of my children have been attending since they were just 4 months old. They’ve progressed through the Infant, Toddler, and Pre-School programs—and even summer camp!

The center uses the Brightwheel App, which keeps us updated daily with activity logs, photos, bathroom breaks, and mealtimes. We also love the weekly art projects our kids bring home! The teachers consistently share their monthly lesson plans through monthly newsletters, which helps us stay informed and involved.

Blossoming Minds also hosts tons of fun events throughout the year for parents to be involved in - from Holiday parties, Trunk or Treat, to Mother/Father's Day events! They truly go above and beyond to involve families.

Every staff member is polite, professional, and friendly. The administration is wonderful and always accessible. The teachers and assistants are patient and nurturing, speak kindly to the children, and maintain great communication with parents. My kids love their teachers and friends at school!

I cannot recommend Blossoming Minds enough—it's truly a special place!”

“My husband and I feared the day we had to send our kids to daycare/preschool but bright horizons has truly managed to put all fears to rest. They have an extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. The classrooms are very welcoming and so far we have nothing but great things to say about the center and the kindergarten prep program. We know we made the right decision putting our son in this program. He is happy and doing well and we appreciate all the great lines of open communication we have with the teachers during the day. The effort and level of care is truly amazing!”

“We have sent 2 kids through the Goddard school and have loved our experience there. All of the teachers have treated my children with care, they have come out with a strong foundational education, and the office staff has always been incredibly kind and accommodating. As our 2nd child gets ready to graduate we will definitely miss our time there.”

“Our child started here when he was 6 months old and he's had an incredible experience here. We left for a few months to try a place closer to home but we are so grateful to be back. He has established so many positive relationships with friends and other adults. The space is wonderful, the teachers and staff are kind, patient, encouraging and we know he is well prepared for UPK in September.”

“I had the blessing to be here from1978 till 1984 it was the best times of my life being there the boys had to sleep in the horse staples at the time we made the best of it many good memories I made a good friend Jimmy Tomous and his brother Andy we have great times the boys dorms was being built when we was leaving and I'll never Mr Pat father Mike and Father Costas just arrived when it was time to leave the best life experience for me”

From the owner to the teachers we have loved and cherished every one of them. Thank you Tots n Us for helping raise my daughter ! We will miss going here but it’s time for a new chapter.”

“There is no better daycare than Little Lamb. Not only does the owner and all of the staff/teachers make you feel so welcome, but they ensure the safety and happiness of the children. My daughter has been here for four years now and I’m so grateful for their AMAZING care. Being a working mom is hard but they are ever so accommodating and give you peace of mind with your child in their hands. They provide you with a weekly curriculum so you know what your child will be doing, and it is packed with educational lessons as well as fun ones to keep the children engaged. My daughter has learned so much from their programs that I wish they did all the way through high school! HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!!!”

“My family has been sending our children to Kidz Town since 2020. We have had nothing but a positive experience with this daycare. They are kind and patient whenever anything arises with our kids. They know them as the little people they are and go out of their way to build a rapport with them. My older son is moving on from Kidz Town for the district Universal Pre-K and it is genuinely sad to move on after the wonderful experience he has had here. Thank you for all of the hard work you do Kidz Town! You are seen and appreciated!”

“My oldest child has been going to cinnamon tree since 2021 in the infant room and now attends pre-k at cinnamon. It was no question that I would send my second child there as well. The care provided by the staff is amazing. Leeann and all the teachers communicate professionally and often. They take detailed notes on infants food/bottle intake, diaper changes, and nap times as well the activities they do throughout the day. I recommend cinnamon tree to anyone I hear is looking for child care in the area.”

“Both of my children have gone through the PreK and summer camp programs. Last year they participated in hybrid learning while at Little Friends and are currently in the before care program. Through the years the staff has been amazing and are like extended family. My children love going and have made great friends.”

“This place has been amazing for both of my daughters. My first attended Acorns to Oaks when and had an absolutely amazing experience there in pre school. My youngest is 3 and she is in the pre school program and she loves the enrichment programs, all the activities, her friends and teachers and she is thriving. The director is amazing. This place is very clean and our experience through our the years has always been very positive.”
