Hi, it’s me, Angela Santomero!
I’m a mom, creator of hit preschool tv shows, and an author. My mission is to empower kids and parents and help build their self esteem.
Creator of
Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood
I’m passionate about putting “little nods of love” in the series throughout every episode. These are little reminders of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” and Fred Rogers, himself. You can see our “love” when we use Fred’s music.

Let’s get to know each other
Along with being a mom, I’m the creator of many of your preschoolers favorite television shows.
I have a masters in Child Developmental Psychology, and I’ve been applying everything I know to making media that helps kids learn, develop and grow. And that parents can trust.
Check out my blog for tips on nurturing the best in kids. I also love to share what I know in guest appearances on shows and podcasts, and I give talks on child development and how media affects children.
