Miss Bloomingdale's Academy

"Finding the right daycare was a difficult experience. As we toured daycares, it seemed like every facility was clean, modern, had clear schedules and plans, and everyone had an app to let you check in. But each one we visited was filled with unhappy staff and crying babies. Except for Ms. Bloomingdale's. The owner walked us through to see each classroom and every staff member was happy. Some babies were crying, but overall almost every child seemed to be happy and enjoying their day. I don't know if the ratios are better, but they SEEM so much better. It feels like every kid is getting personal attention. We saw kids being dropped off, excited to see their teachers. Everything felt calm and kind, not hectic or urgent. And every room had a teacher who had been employed for several years or more. Every teacher our child has had truly cared for them. Teachers we haven't even met formally yet greet them by name every time we drop off and pick up. The staff is so kind and patient and works so hard to meet us where we are as first time parents and be patient with us as we learn as well. Every time we move up rooms, it feels like such a huge stress. What if they don't like it? What if the new teacher isn't as good? They like their current teacher so much! Yet every time, they love their new teacher and adjust easily to the new routine--because again, the staff here is so experienced and have dealt with every type of child. There are rough days, as there are anywhere, but never have I felt like my child wasn't cared for. The peace of mind it brings to know that my child is with this exceptional group of teachers truly made a substantial difference in our lives. I cannot recommend it more--five stars quite frankly isn't enough."

"As a first time mom, I was nervous to start daycare, but once I met Miss Raquel in the infant room, she put my mind at ease. She helped me get my son to take a bottle when he was going through bottle refusal right before he started daycare and got him to take consistent naps. Miss Raquel absolutely loves all the babies she cares for and my son is always smiling when I pick him up. She’s amazing and I can already see so much progress and development since he started. I would highly recommend Miss Bloomingdale’s!"

"We started Miss Bloomingdale’s when my son was 4 months old and have really enjoyed getting to know the staff there. The infant room he is in has the best teachers. I know when I drop my son off with Miss Raquel that he is in good hands. She has been easy to work with, great with communication, and my son loves seeing her when we drop off. Thank you so much for giving the mom some peace of mind!"

"Our son attended Miss Bloomingdale's Pre-K and Kindergarten Academy. The small classroom sizes have been instrumental in fostering an environment where his academic needs were not just met but exceeded. The close, personal relationships he developed with his teachers were instrumental in his growth, ensuring that every aspect of his education was tailored to his unique needs. Warm family atmosphere. Our son always felt safe and supported, not just academically but also emotionally and they laid a strong foundation for his future academic success. We couldn't be more grateful for the dedication, personalized attention, and nurturing environment that he received here."

"Our family has both of our children attend Miss Bloomingdale's Academy for the past three years. We have had a very good experience at this school and feel our children have grown tremendously since attending. Ms. Chere has a fundamental role at MBA and has been an integral part of our children's development. Our daughter has flourished both academically and emotionally while in Ms. Chere’s class and we are incredibly thankful for all her hard work. We are very glad to be apart of the MBA community."
