Riverside’s Day Care Center welcomes children ages 2 ½
to 6 into a stimulating and caring learning environment while their
parents are working or attending job training. Founded in 1965, the
Center is licensed by
New York City’s Administration for Children’s Services
to provide a full-day program for 76 children, including a state-certified
kindergarten classroom.
The Day Care Center works with partners to provide the best experience
for families. The Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services
coordinates on-site Early Intervention Group Therapy for children
with special needs. Specialists from Bank Street College provide
technical assistance on working with parents and adapting curriculum.
The National Council of Jewish Women sponsors the Center’s
lending library.
A sliding-fee scale accommodates families with very low to middle
incomes. Families represent diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds
and live or work in the surrounding community. Eighty percent are
headed by single mothers. Eligible parents must be working, participating
in a welfare-to-work program, or receiving disability entitlements.
