Tiny Tots is incredibly warm and experienced with children. I felt comfortable from the start dropping off my one year old and he reaches out his arms to Kathy when I drop him off. I love that the children spend so much time outside in the spacious backyard with lots of toys and activities. I’ve been impressed with the staff to child ratio and feel comforted knowing that my son gets a good amount of individual attention.

It is very clear they truly love all of the kids. They are the most devoted teachers I have ever met. My son was just four months old when he started when I went back to work from maternity leave. It is such a comfortable and loving environment. I feel grateful for finding The Kiddie Cottage Inc and Tiny Tots Daycare, it really is a home away from home with loving, skillful and talented teachers.

Tiny Tots was the perfect place for our daughter, Rose. Kathy and her stellar crew of loving, kind, and warm staff cared for Rose from 10 to 31 months. Our daughter thrived: At Tiny Tots she had the freedom to explore and grow, to socialize and learn, and to gain confidence. Rose especially loved the weekly music activities. Tiny Tots has a flexible space arrangement so the kids can be active in all seasons. We highly recommend Kathy's wonderful daycare.

"I was so thankful that I got in touch with Kathy and was very happy with her care for my 20-month old daughter. I live out of state, and was helping my family in the area. I needed a couple week of childcare, and Kathy was kind enough to take my daughter for the 2 weeks I needed help. Kathy and her staff helped my daughter adjust to their daily routine, and would update me regularly on how my daughter was doing. My daughter was safe, well cared for, and she really enjoyed the books, outdoor play, music, singing, and dancing too."

In Tiny Tots, we found a wonderful child care centre for our daughter from 6 months to 19 months old. Kathy and the Tiny Tots team are loving, patient, and engaging with the kids. The flexible space allows for exciting learning and play activities no matter the weather: From the big outdoor space full of toys to the roomy sunlit playroom, the kids have ample resources to learn and grow together. At Tiny Tots, our daughter was with teachers that care sensitively for children, attending to each one's needs -- teachers that provide daily opportunities to grow in mind and body. We highly recommend this lovely and exceptional daycare.

Both of my grandchildren have thrived at Tiny
Tots 5 days a week
Both of my grandchildren have thrived at Tiny Tots 5 days a week and I am a social worker who is very knowledgeable about child care. Kathy and Shannon have cared for both of them as if they were family. They are loving, safe and very careful with all of the children and have a clean and happy environment to thrive in. They go on stroller walks to the playground and have plenty of learning opportunities in this family daycare home. As they grow there are always age appropriate activities for them. They provide healthy meals and snacks. My grandchildren are always happy to greet Shannon or Kathy each morning. They are professionals in their work and love and concern like family. You can not go wrong with this choice of child care for your children.
My
family and I couldn't be happier with our decision to send our kids to Tiny
Tots!
My family and I couldn't be happier with our decision to send our kids to Tiny Tots! Kathy and Shannon have become like family and our girls both love and adore them and look forward to seeing them every day. They have a great play space, and a fun outdoor area with a big swing set, water tables, games, and toys. my daughters started with Kathy at 4 months and 11 months and they have been incredible with them at all ages. My older daughter is almost 4 and talks about Kathy and Shannon as if they are a part of her family. Both girls have learned so much from them over the years. I have always been comforted in knowing my kids are loved and getting the best care from Kathy and Shannon. Do yourself a favor and send your kids here!
My family and I enjoyed our time with Tiny Tots.

Every day at drop off Mia runs up the stairs without even turning round to say goodbye
Every morning at drop off Mia runs up the stairs without even turning around to say goodbye. She loves Kathy and Shannon and her friends from Tiny Tots. Kathy and Shannon treat Mia like one of their own. They are very communicative and text pictures and updates every day. They build community amongst the parents with their evening pizza parties and exchanging phone numbers to facilitate weekend play dates. We only needed care 3 days a week. Kathy was flexible and worked with our schedule. We highly recommend Tiny Tots and we will all miss Kathy and Shannon!

Kathy and Shannon fill their days with art
projects, outdoor activities, songs, and games
Kathy and Shannon have been amazing to work with. They are like family to our daughters. They've always been extremely responsive to questions and will work with you based on the needs of your kids. They have been an extreme comfort to our girls through difficult times in our life including sickness and loss. Our kids look forward to going to Kathy's every day, and have made great friends throughout the process. My older daughter even asks to go to Kathy's on the weekends. Kathy and Shannon fill their days with art projects, outdoor activities, songs, and games. They try to get outside whenever they can, even during the cold winter months, which I appreciate. It was very difficult leaving my kids to go back to work and Kathy and Shannon were encouraging and supportive. They send us lots of pictures and updates throughout the day and are always quick to respond to texts if I have a question or concern. It brings me so much comfort knowing my kids are in such good hands and are so well taken care of every day. I highly recommend Tiny Tots!
Kathy and Shannon provided a loving and safe
environment for my two children to grow
Kathy and Shannon provided a loving and safe environment for my two children to grow, learn, play, and flourish. Kathy and Shannon are excellent at communicating throughout the day and as needed, and are so quick to notice any small changes. They were able to notice when my children were not at their baseline even before I did, and in one case it was the beginning of a (mild) illness but their catching it early avoided any spread. Further, during my 2.5 years with them starting in February 2020, never once did my family catch COVID-19 which is a testament to their rigorous safety and hygiene practices. I felt completely comfortable having my children in their care. They become part of our family, and treated my children like their own.
Our Daughter dives out of our arms with a giant smile or giggle when we get to TinyTots
We love Kathy, Shannon, and the whole Tiny Tots crew! Our daughter started at Tiny Tots when she was one and quickly settled in. She now dives out of our arms in the morning with a giant smile or giggles when we arrive. Kathy and everyone at Tiny Tots loves our daughter, keeps her safe, and communicates with us daily, sending pictures and videos of all the fun activities. There is a great staff-to-child ratio that ensures our daughter gets individualized attention while also being offered opportunities to socialize. We are amazed by the new words, songs, and skills that she often learns! We could not recommend Tiny Tots more!!
My daughter Gwen was with Kathy from ten months until she "graduated" this spring at two and a half. We always felt safe, secure, and comfortable dropping her off each morning, knowing she was receiving the best, most loving care (and yoga, movement and enrichment activities to boot!). Kathy and her staff provided a wonderful place for Gwen to grow and thrive, and we are going to miss her terribly now that the little one is off to preschool.

I am happy to recommend Tiny Tots daycare. It is always a scary thing to leave your newborn infant with a stranger, but Kathy and her staff made this transition as easy as possible as I always knew he was being loved and cared for each day. My baby was always happy to go with Kathy in the morning and smiling when he was picked up in the afternoon. I greatly appreciated all the pictures they sent of his day, the many activities they plan with the kids, and with the constant communication I always felt reassured he was in good hands. We will miss you all!
Kathy, Shannon, Nancy, and the whole crew at Tiny Tots have become family for us for the past two years
Our daughter looks so forward to going to daycare which, as any parent knows, makes a world of difference. The staff makes it a point to get outside almost everyday they safely can and they have an array of activities including creative movement and music. They are so invested in the children and help them (and their parents!) with all sorts of life changes including potty training, new siblings and a whole host of other events. Kathy and her family have even been know to send postcards from places they have gone to the kids homes to let them know they are thinking of them. Once you join the Tiny Tots group, you are in for life.
My son attended Tiny Tots for the past year and
was happy to attend every day
My son attended Tiny Tots for the past year and was happy to attend every day. Kathy and her staff were always friendly, accommodating and flexible. I was confident that I was leaving him in safe hands. There are nice spaces for the kids to play, both inside and outside, and I loved that the kids played outside as much as possible. The staff never hesitated to dress the kids in their snow pants or in their bathing suits to take them outside! Kathy and her staff clearly cared about the kids, engaged with them, and enjoyed being with them. I recommend this home daycare!
