Hey everyone! I wanted to share my experience with Happy Hearts Take Two, I worked there for a few days but unfortunately had to leave due my high risk pregnancy. I reached out to the director regarding my paycheck, but despite leaving multiple messages, I didn't receive a response. It was really disappointing and frustrating to not be paid for the work I did. I understand that unexpected situations can arise, but I wish the daycare had handled this better. I hope they improve their communication and payment processes in the future. Just wanted to share my experience so others are aware. Take care!

Des and family run the best daycare we have ever toured and subsequently have been a customer of for 3+ years. This is the best school for my daughter, they have changed our lives for the better. Would highly recommend!

We have only been part of the Happy Hearts family for a few months now, but it has been a game changer in childcare. We previously sent our two children to another daycare before and there were constant issues in care and consistency. Happy Hearts staff and owners take a lot of pride in teaching the children in a safe and clean environment. My two children love it there and I’m so relieved I have finally found a place I can comfortably send my children so that I can keep my career. ?

Love this place. Everyday my daughter is super excited to go. Highly recommend. Good teachers and good people running it. If not for Happy hearts we would've probably moved out of the area.

Happy Hearts has become part of our extended family. The owners are fantastic — warm, family oriented, flexible, and truly care about every part of their establishment. There hasn’t been a time when I have come by or seen my child at HH where he isn’t smiling.Thank you for all that you do. ? recommend this establishment to anyone considering a childcare center.

Both my kids attend happy hearts; and needless to say we are in love! This is not only a family owned and operated center, but they truly make you feel home. Isn’t that what any family wants when having their children cared for outside of the home? Both girls enter and leave that building with huge smiles on their faces. I literally expect nothing but cleanliness- reliability- responsiveness- engaging and attentive teachers the minute we step into the building. We love the director/owner Des and we’re so greatful for happy hearts - loving caring and teaching our kids as we would!-The mountains.

All three of my kids went to happy hearts. This is one Of five daycares due to moving reasons and I can honestly tell you it’s as close to perfect as you can get. It’s a business run by a wonderful caring family who love what they do and work hard for your children. It’s more of a school than a daycare. There are constant educational activities in a safe and clean environment. I don’t think any other daycare comes close. The staff are all wonderful and care about each individual child’s needs. You always know how your child is doing that day from the app when you are at work and aren’t left in the dark. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for the best.

Highly recommend Happy Hearts! I used them for 7 years; 16mo through 2nd grade (before/after school program). Family owned daycare who embrace the families they care for. I initially started with HH for the early hours before living in Croton. I was so satisfied I actually moved to Croton to continue with Happy Hearts for the before/after school program when my child transitioned to school. Most importantly my son loved Happy Hearts and was well prepared for Kindergarten. The attention to detail in the programs, the facility and staff will not disappoint . They were reliable and accommodating, open on snow days and school holidays/breaks. When school closed due to the pandemic Happy Hearts stepped up and supported remote learning and childcare. We did not hesitate in going back! Happy Hearts is a true asset to the families and I am forever grateful for the care and friendships we have because of Happy Hearts!

My wife and I send my both our kids here. We love the care, education and social setting. It is clear Happy Hearts is very selective on the teachers who work there.

Called to schedule a tour for possible enrollment of our daughter and still waiting for a callback from the director. Filled out the online form and never received a response. Needless to say, we went with another school.

Our family LOVES Happy Hearts and we recommend highly! All three of my children attended Happy Hearts from the time they were infants until they graduated Pre-K and headed off to Kindergarten. Overall, our children were cared for by Happy Hearts from 2010-2020. For a decade, the family that owns this wonderful daycare and their amazing staff cared for and educated my children, preparing them for elementary school and providing them with a loving second home, truly going above and beyond. Words alone cannot describe the positive impact that Happy Hearts has had on our family. Happy Hearts has truly made our hearts happy!

My daughter has attended Happy Hearts on the Hudson for the past 3 years. Along with great communication from the staff and certified teachers that taught my daughter, the director Desiree always worked with me, kept me notified and made us feel as “family”. Happy Hearts has made my daughter MORE than ready for kindergarten academically, emotionally and spiritually. She still attends the after school program for school age children and enjoys attending after school. I highly recommend Happy Hearts on the Hudson for any family that needs amazing child care.
