We absolutely loved Titiana! She took amazing care of our twins and always made us feel comfortable knowing they were in great hands. She is caring, patient, and truly treats the kids like family. She goes the extra mile to celebrate holidays with the kids and sends a lot of daily pictures. We’re so grateful to her and highly recommend her! ❤️
My daughter attended this daycare for a little under 1 year, and we had a wonderful experience. From her very first day, she felt safe and comfortable, which gave me peace of mind as a parent.
She loved her teachers, made many friends, and always enjoyed going each day. The staff are caring and attentive, and they provide a great mix of learning, crafts, and fun activities. My daughter learned so much during her time there. Every single day she was excited to tell me how her day was, what she ate, how much fun she had and how much she couldn’t wait to go again.
The food was excellent, and I always felt confident leaving my daughter in their care. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a safe, nurturing, and welcoming environment for their child. Seriously, bring your child here, I am happy we were part of Little Elephant Family.
It truly felt like second home!
Our daughter attended Little Elephant Childcare from 19 months to 3 years old. Ms. Tatiana provides excellent care for young children. We had tried larger daycare centers before, but our daughter was frequently sick. We really appreciated the smaller group setting and wish we had found a spot earlier. The daycare offered nutritious home-cooked meals, ensured kids actually ate while still being flexible, and included a weekly music class our daughter thoroughly enjoyed. We would highly recommend Little Elephant Childcare to other families.

Thank you so much for the nice review, it was a pleasure to have her with us :)
We recently moved from California and I was so nervous about finding a new daycare for our daughter, and I couldn’t be happier with our choice at Little Elephant! Our daughter started at 18 months and transitioned so easily right away. Tatiana is communicative, patient, and so great with the kids. I love knowing that my daughter is in good hands during the week. She has healthy meals and snacks, outdoor play, arts/crafts and weekly music classes. She is always so happy at pick up and drop off - truly thriving here!
Our son (1yo) started at little elephant's day-care a month ago, and we couldn’t be happier. It's a home based day care, and they provide meals and snacks. The staff is kind and caring, and our little one is thriving. Tatiana runs the place extremely well! We love getting updates and knowing he’s in good hands. Highly recommend!

Thank you for the lovely review! We're so glad your son is thriving here. It means the world to us! 😊
My son has been attending Little Elephant for 6 months, his first daycare experience. Although it took him a month to adjust, Tatiana's gentle and patient approach helped us through the transition. Now, he's excited to go even on weekends!
Tatiana's care is exceptional—she is thoughtful, kind, and attentive. She understands and observes the children's needs, discussing their progress with us. I appreciate her willingness to communicate with parents, collaborate, and discuss the development and growth of the children together. It makes us trust her a lot because she cares for each child sincerely. If a child feels unwell, she promptly informs us. We have full trust in her professionalism and judgment.
She organizes enjoyable art classes, music classes, outdoor activities. And her practical advice on potty training put us at ease. My son loves Tatiana, his friends, and the daycare. He has fun and gets along with other friends! Tatiana provides a safe, loving, and clean environment for kids to play and grow.
Thank you, Tatiana! We highly recommend this daycare!

Thank you for your sweet review! We're so happy to hear how much your son enjoys Little Elephant. It’s been a joy watching him grow. We truly appreciate your trust and kind words! 😊
Tatiana provided an amazing experience for our little one Chloe from 18 months to 3 yrs old. She cooks 3 meals for them so Chloe was pretty much all taken care of by the time she comes home! Chloe was well loved and happy all the time with her little friends there!
Tatiana is super nice and my kid has thrived with her. He enjoys the home cooked vegetarian meal and I enjoy the daily update pictures. I highly recommend this place.
This is a fantastic home-based daycare. The owner, Tatiana, and her caregiver assistants are kind and trustworthy. I love the daily updates and photos. The facility itself is clean, well organized, and safe. The meals are wholesome and I feel good about my son's experiences there. Highly recommend!
