Vivvi, a leading provider of child care and early learning for today’s families, announced plans to open a new Upper West Side campus in January 2026. The new location, inside The Windermere at 666 West End Avenue, will offer high-quality care and early learning for infants and toddlers, creating up to 72 new child-care seats for one of Manhattan’s most family-centered neighborhoods.
The Upper West Side campus marks Vivvi’s latest expansion in New York City, joining more than a dozen locations across Manhattan, Dumbo, and Westchester. “The Upper West Side has always felt like an ideal home for us,” said Charles Bonello, co-founder and CEO of Vivvi. “We’re grateful for the warm welcome and excited to bring our mission to a neighborhood that truly values learning, curiosity and community. We can’t wait to become part of daily life here on the UWS.”
Vivvi UWS will offer year-round, full-day schedules from 7am–7pm, giving working parents the flexibility they need without compromising on an exceptional early-learning experience. With rolling admissions and program options for children ages 0–24 months, families will have access to a modern, thoughtfully designed campus that supports both care and daily family routines.
The space is crafted with true intention, designed around how infants and toddlers actually learn and explore. Classrooms will feature child-scaled furniture, cozy nooks, ample opportunities for sensory play, and dedicated zones for small group experiences. A signature highlight of the new campus will be its indoor “Wiggle Room,” providing space for crawling, climbing, balancing and movement—supporting infants’ and toddlers’ gross motor development even on cold, rainy, or icy days.
Located near the 96th Street 1/2/3 express station and steps from Riverside Park, Vivvi UWS offers the convenience families need for easy drop-off and pick-up, along with proximity to beloved neighborhood green spaces that enrich daily outdoor exploration.
