Hello, my name is Angelina Cintron and I operate a homemade Childcare Center in the local Astoria area in area code 11106. The Early Scholars Education Program operates on the notion that children grow and learn most efficiency with consistent hands on exploration and experiences.

More than just a daycare, I offer young children the opportunity to become a part of a loving, healthy, and safe community to help them flourish and reach their true potential.
