Author: Kanisha Borden Rating: 5/5 Date: 5/2/2023, 11:11:46 AM Review: I only visited this place today because I was concerned with some issues at my current daycare. I was worried i would need to switch. This place was great just from a visit. The owners are nice and clearly work with you. I love the camera system they have. I would switch in heart beatvif they had space for an infant and it was not so far. For now I'll have to save the number in case i have another issue arise. Edit: I actually used this daycare for a while because I had to make a switch. They are excellent. Very caring and loving. Took great care of my children. They were so wonderful(and I have some very poor experiences with daycares) that during COVID when they had to reduce the amount of kids they had, I took mine home and kept paying them to keep them open even though it wasn’t required. Highly recommend!!

The owner spent 35 minutes with me on the phone explaining everything about the curriculum before I even took a tour! The director, Samantha, is also super friendly and informative. My daughter loves seeing Ms. Nya everyday and really enjoys going to this school! I would give 10 stars if I could!!!

We've been coming here for almost 10 years amd 3/4 of our kids have attended. They recently switched owners and it's just as amazing, the owners are nice,caring and it makes life a litter easier knowing my babies are taking care of. The cameras are an added bonus. ----- Author: Jamie Babcock Rating: 5/5 Date: 5/1/2024, 10:32:34 PM Review: Tiny Tykes is a big part of my family! My son has been going since before he was a year old and he’s built so many relationships with so many people. He is always so happy to be there. The staff is wonderful and the cameras are a plus as I’m always able to see my baby. The owners are great! I like that I get to see them through out the week and they always take the time to ask me how I’m doing and they always acknowledge my son even if it’s a simple goodbye or lots of hugs on the way out.

Not very nice, Or welcoming. I tried to be transparent about my 3 year old and how he is tough and needs the structure along with behavior modification. I was met with judgement and my son became hateful of his daycare after a week. We did not return.

Tiny Tykes is a 5 star facility with amazing staff and clientele. My son, now 10 years old attend this school from the time he was 6weeks old through VPK. My daughter, now almost 2 also started in their care at 6 weeks. As a working mom with long hours it is comforting to know that my children spend their week days in the care of a staff that does such an impeccable job keeping the children engaged and excited. I love the diversity of the students and staff and the opportunity for my child to learn from all of them. I highly recommend this daycare center.
Tiny Tykes has been our home since 2021. Since new ownership, it has become more like family! They treat your child with respect, and they learn more than you could believe possible for a toddler!! Getting them prepared & ready for Pre-K or Kindergarten!! Highly recommend for your home away from home, for your children!!

Do not send your kids here!!!!!!!
We absolutely love Tiny Tykes, and the new owners!
Awesome place and amazing staff. We won't ever put out kids anywhere else. We've put all our kids through here.
Unfortunately the daycare my son Was attending ended up going out of business after 30+ years. So I had to rather quickly find another opening for a 3 year old. Came across tiny tykes, well he started around 7/15/24, everything seemed ok and about a month later mid August, I got my first notice to come and sign an incident report that my son had slapped someone across the face (not cool of course , not something I’m ok with but maybe he had an off day, I’m not sure) anyways after that I started getting these reports 2/3 times a week. Then I was approached that he would be suspended if this continued. (Keep in mind he is 3.. he does not bite, he’s not aggressive at all, however if let’s say another 3 year old took his toy.. he might get upset) but to suspend him made no sense because I’m not sure how that would even teach a 3 year old anything. So I went and I already knew it would happen again.. and the next day they suspended him for a day.. and of course she told me that when he comes back if it happened he would be expelled.. never experience anything like this in my life with my older son.. or at the other day care at all.. in 2 years he never got a write up. The lady who works the front was not very pleasant and I did not get any option that maybe we could work with my son if the behavior they were saying was even true (I prob should have asked to see the cameras because the behaviors And things they were throwing out just seemed off) again he is a 3 year old boy and he can test the waters for sure. However I would definitely be careful and aware before spending any money at tiny tykes that if your 3 year old dances around sometimes, or pokes at you, maybe had a temper tantrum for not getting their way, this may not be the place to put your child. However i was able to find another place close by, he has been there for 5 weeks and he is doing amazing (no write ups) teacher has had to separate the kids from Time to time but my son is not singled out like he was at tiny tykes.
