Our Teachers

Hello! I am Digna, and I am the provider here at Digna’s Group Daycare & Wonderschool. I am passionate about childcare because when I was a child, I was quiet and don’t think I got the attention I would have liked. I believe in-home childcare means we can meet the needs of all kids - including kids like me! I raised my own family and am a proud grandparent, which was what inspired me to open my own childcare - it has been open since February of 2019!

Philosophy

Here at Digna’s Group Daycare & Wonderschool, we believe that having a play-based philosophy helps students learn and grow when you have lots of positive interactions with them. Children learn when you teach them directly, and they learn more when they receive a lot of attention from the adults that are taking care of them. We want to give them a place that makes them happy and feel loved!

Location

Our program is located in a safe apartment complex where we are able to buzz families in for pick-up and drop-off. We are located conveniently between the Hunts Point Ave and Longwood Ave stops on the 6 train and accessible to the Simpson St 2 and 5 lines. Outside time comes through walks and trips to a close by park!

About our program

**We choose developmentally appropriate activities for the children. **Kids love to paint, color, and play with manipulatives at the table during the day. We have a wide selection of materials that we use each day.

**I believe that in-home childcare gives the most loving approach to working with kids. **This is a loving space where your child is cared for and we really get to know them - and you! You will become part of our family, and often, we are part of yours!

**This is a Spanish immersion program. **Your child will be hearing Spanish for the entire time they’re here. This will help them build a strong vocabulary and leave my program able to understand and speak the language.
