Small but fun toddler music classes on Tues. miss Nany can be horrible to kids though. Hard to get a smile out of the kids librarian Miss Nancy when we go in at 10am though which makes us feel unwanted and uncomfortable, not sure why one would work in the kids section but be grumpy in the morning lol. Also uncomfortable to hear her complaining visitors ‘I hate when people put donations in the return box, I mean come on people don’t read’. Makes you wonder what she’ll say about you once you leave. Makes a nasty atmosphere when you’ve simple come to have fun with your toddler and feel such negative energy and unhappy workers. Do better ppl! Especially in front impressionable children. She proceeded to then yell as some kid ‘can you please not push the books back’ . It was so loud and unsettling, it threw off the whole vibe.. I mean c’mon yell at your own kids but not at other people’s kids at your job, the poor kids and mother felt to incredibly uncomfortable. My toddler also never hears such loud yelling I wanted to take her home

We love this place! We adore Miss Jane & Miss Fran. We’ve come every week since baby was 5 months old! She’s 13 months & treasures her time here. Thank you to the team!

Excellent! We went 2pm on a Thursday in late Aug and it was perfect. Clean, great crowd, we’ll behaved kids playing. Shade, seating, close to the zoo and 70th street entrance. Love the sprinklers, climbing, swings, sand pit. My fav playground in Manhattan

This is a tiny library compared to others in NJ, the Storytime has about 4 kids and the host did a lot of sensory toy stimulation. I just wish he didn’t play baby shark on his phone for one as that’s one thing I try to keep away from my kid. It was just the sound playing but I do think things like this should not involve phones and just song we sing ourselves and sounds we make ourselves. The host seemed a little timid himself, though his heart is definitely in the right place
