WHO WE ARE The Day School of Astoria

The Day School of Astoria is an early childhood education center for children ages 2-5 years old. We offer a program that allows for maximum learning through motion and self-discovery. We embrace the philosophy of allowing children to have fun independently and with peers to cultivate social skills and establish emotional stability at an early age.

As they discover and have fun, we thoroughly guide them to absorb as much learning as they can through independent play and structured learning activities at our preschool and daycare in Astoria, New York.
