How this best-daycare ranking was made

Parents searching “best daycare in the Bronx” usually want three things: a current license, a person who stays in the room, and hours that cover a workday. This page ranks daycare in the Bronx that way.

First, the program has to be findable in the NYS OCFS child care search. My Piccolo Mondo is facility 236999, licensed since 2006, capacity 16. Maria’s Piccolo Mondo is facility 821324, licensed in 2018, capacity 16.

Second, public reviews. The top two show 5.0 on Google. Rainbow Palace is 4.1 on Yelp. Castle Hill YMCA is 3.5. Pelham Bees is 3.0. The Learning Experience in Throggs Neck is 1.0 on Yelp. Lower scores sit lower on the page.

Third, the clock. Best child care in the Bronx for a commuter opens at 7 and closes at 6. A 5:30 close fails a lot of East Bronx, Queens, Long Island, New Rochelle, and Connecticut drives.
