I have worked for Tykes and Tots for just over 2 years and I am so proud to be a part of such an amazing team. Handling a child’s emotions first, seeing children as competent learners, allowing children to learn from their mistakes and learn their limits in a safe and supporting environment in or outside. These are just some of the philosophies that I am proud to be a part of. This organization is growing and I can see why. Stay for 10 minutes and talk to any staff or child and we will tell you how amazing Tykes and Tots is.

As someone who has worked in childcare for 14 years, it has been a struggle to find a place to truly be able to call “home”. However, in 2017, I finally found that place when I walked through the doors of Tykes and Tots. No matter which location you go to, you get the same feeling of belonging, love, kindness and happiness. We love the families, we love the children and we love what we do. We understand that you are entrusting us with your most precious gift and to show you how grateful we are, we do our best to make sure your child develops in all areas: social, emotional, physical, cognitive, spiritual and creative. If you want your child to learn, laugh, grow, love and feel a sense of belonging then there is no better place than Tykes and Tots. And if you’re lucky enough to become one of the staff here, you will feel just like I finally do and you will finally feel at “home”.
