Tamari took care of our daughter for over a year and she was amazing. She was always caring, patient and easy to communicate with. Our daughter loved her and was excited to see her every morning. As parents, it gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. We highly recommend Tamari!
Mikhail BaranyukJun 27, 2026The environment is clean & the staff is great
Adik MDec 12, 2025We’re incredibly grateful for the safe, loving, and encouraging environment you create each day - it’s easy to see how much our child is growing and thriving because of you.
HelaDec 11, 2025The team at Mini Steps is the best daycare I have taken my daughter to in the area. We have gone to 3 other daycares that do not compare! At Mini Steps, they are kind, clean, and educated in caring for my child. She loves going every morning and always has fun with Tammy and the team! Thank you Mini Steps!!!
Jasmin MkrtchyanDec 11, 2025Tammy is a truly wonderful caregiver. Our daughter started daycare with her when she was six months old and was with her until she was two and a half. Tammy is very organized, communicative and nurturing. She also supported our daughter with potty training. We couldn’t recommend her more!
Grace NunezDec 11, 2025Tammy and her team are some of the best caregivers around. We have trusted her for years with our kids!

What ages does MINI STEPS DAYCARE care for?
