Miss Denise

Mrs. Denise the owner and founder of The Magic Garden Child Care inc (Formally Time In Child Care Inc.) started her career of caring for children in high school. Denise attended Nyack College and earned a degree in management while substitute teaching for the NRCSD 2004-2008. During this time she also attended classes at the College of New Rochelle in pursuit of a Master’s degree in school counseling. In 2006, Denise earned her Master’s degree and decided to open her own in-home childcare program. Since then, Denise’s background in the NRCSD and her own experience as a parent has provided her with the skills necessary to build a strong educational foundation for The Magic Garden Child Care inc. As a testament to this, in October 2010, Denise received a Certificate of Accreditation from the National Association for Family Childcare (NAFCC). This is irrefutably a huge feat for such a young business. After seeing what Denise was able to accomplish in her first few years in business, Denise was inspired to return to school where she obtained a dual Master’s degree in both Early and Special Education, in hopes of furthering her own ability to provide the highest level of care for your children. In 2013 Denise became the first & only Universal Pre-Kindergarten program in a home based environment in the County of Rockland. In 2020 Denise was chosen as the 2020 Children’s Champion Award winner by the Child Care Resources of Rockland for exceptional commitment to children and their families. Denise’s dedication to children continues to grow so she, together with her staff can provide your children with the best educational experience to foster growth.
