Our Philosophy
At Hearts and Minds Daycare, we believe every child is unique and deserves a safe, nurturing environment to grow and thrive. We honor each child’s individual pace of development while supporting their social, emotional, and early learning needs. In partnership with families, we foster confidence, kindness, and a lifelong love of learning.

From Our Director
As an educator for over 13 years, including 7 years teaching in South Jamaica, Queens, I have had the privilege of working closely with children and families from diverse backgrounds. During my time in the classroom, I saw a growing need for high-quality early childhood education.
​​
That experience inspired the creation of Hearts and Minds Daycare. Our program was designed to provide a safe, supportive environment where children ages 2–6 can grow, learn, and thrive. We focus on developmentally appropriate instruction, consistent routines, and meaningful relationships that help children build confidence and a love for learning.
​
I am proud to serve the community that helped shape my journey as an educator, and I look forward to partnering with families to support their children during these critical early years.
-Renee Warner Gervais, M.S.Ed.
