I highly recommend La Petite Academy on Bloomingdale Ave. I worked there for a year (only quit b/c I had a baby and we moved). The teachers are all amazing, and they do so much with the kids. I have worked at several daycares/pre-school and this one is by far the best. The director, Tiffany, is wonderful.
One I do NOT recommend is Bloomingdale Academy (on the same road). I think it starts at 2 years, and it's basically 2 rooms, they all 'share' it. The director is, well, strange, and not very nice to her employees. I worked there for maybe 2 weeks and I couldn't take the way she treated the teachers (in front of parents no less) so I had to get out of there! GL!
Edit: I just saw you're still pregnant, the La Petite I'm referring to starts at 1 year. There are several others in the area that take newborns. I would try them!
