My wife and I both work in Manhattan (me at Bway and 50th, her at Columbia 116th st). We currently live in Springfield NJ. We are considering a move to NYC for an easier commute.
We are considering Brooklyn and Queens. We have 2 children, so we would like 3 beds 2 bath. Purchasing seems impossible, so we would consider renting. A backyard would be nice, as would a parking space. Budget is 4k per month.
Are there any neighborhoods that fit the bill? What about schools (kids are in K and 1st). Is private school my only real option?

Your kids will grow up way fast dude. City kids are a different breed dude.
Thanks for the suggestions. There are actually quite a bit of options in my price range in Forest Hills, and close to subway entrances.
What is that area like? Is it treelined streets with mostly houses, or is it a bit more urban with a mix of houses, businesses and apartment buildings? What about the schools?

Forest Hills is way too far from Manhattan. You would be better off finding a house in Astoria or Sunnyside to rent, 4K is a really good budget
Bayside. LIRR service is the best bet to get to Manhattan, though more costly than a Metrocard/
