About us

We respect each child’s humanity and help them attain their greatest potential. This begins with an educational approach that taps into a child’s inherent curiosity for knowing themselves and the world around them. We create a loving environment of belonging and connection that focuses on the social-emotional and cognitive development of each child.

Play Based Bronx was formed out of a desire to create a quality, vibrant, supportive, accepting, and child-centered learning environment in the South Bronx. Juzenia the founder of Play Based Bronx realized there is not much quality child care in the community. As a NYS certified teacher and a graduate from Bank Street, Juzenia decided to pursue her dream of opening a daycare that focuses on the importance of Play!

We offer a friendly environment for children to explore and learn.

Grown from a genuine longing to create a learning environment that meets children and families where they are in their education journey. The team is a tribe built on shared understanding, support, nourishment, acceptance, and connection.
