A home away from home

Real home. Real care.

Hands to Heart Daycare is a Group Family Day Care tucked into a real Brooklyn home in Sunset Park. That means fewer children, more familiar faces, and a calmer rhythm to the day — the next-best thing to being looked after by family.

Led on-site by provider Berkys Vizcaino, the program has welcomed neighborhood families since 2020, caring for a mixed-age group where older and younger children learn gently from one another.

Story time

A cozy reading corner

Picture books, soft cushions, and quiet time together — early language and a love of stories start with snuggling up to a good book.

Crayons, paint, blocks and busy little fingers. Open-ended, play-based moments that build imagination, coordination, and confidence.
