About Us

Hi, I’m Diana, the creator of Bright Beginnings and a passionate Speech Language Pathologist. With over 13 years of experience working with children ranging from 1 to 14 years old, I’ve had the privilege of providing speech therapy services in numerous daycares and preschools. Through these experiences, I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t when it comes to early childhood development.

Bright Beginnings was born out of my own search for the perfect daycare for my daughter. I quickly realized that a place like this didn’t exist. I envisioned a daycare that felt like home but also offered the structure and care necessary to foster growth and development. I believe that children learn best through art, music, sports, dance, reading, and most importantly, play—key elements woven into our program.

I also know that caregivers must be loving and nurturing, stepping into an incredibly important role while parents are at work. At Bright Beginnings, we encourage children to express themselves freely—to talk, shout, and most importantly, share. We focus on teaching essential social language skills, such as turn-taking and sharing, to help children grow socially and emotionally.

I want parents to feel heard and involved in their child's care, and ultimately, my goal is the same as any parent’s: for the children to be happy. I’m thrilled to embark on this new journey, building a “ship” anchored in Port Washington but destined to sail far and wide—taking children on an adventure where they can grow their imaginations, their speech, and their language, creating the foundation for their dreams to come true.
