Recent parent reviews
Our daughter went to Tiny Steps MB from age 3 months to 18 months, and we only left because we moved. She was so excited to arrive every morning, and was always happy when we picked her up. You could tell that the caretakers truly loved her and took great care of her. They also supported her as she learned to crawl and walk. Be aware that this facility does not provide a lot of updates- for example no app, no regular photos (they will occasionally send photos or videos), and no parent teacher conferences. However as long as you are okay with that then it is totally fine. They also provide meals and pm snack. Definitely recommend!
Molly ChanzisJan 9, 2025Our daughter is excited to go here every morning; the providers are all warm and caring, and have been consistent in the 2 years she's been going. We'll be sending our son here when he turns one as well. We're very happy with the care received, especially as this is one of the more moderately priced options in the neighborhood.
Aman KhanAug 15, 2023Wonderful, caring and loving daycare. We absolutely adore our caretakers: Shaki, Naima, Zoda and Julia. My son goes there with the smile every morning. They play together, sing, do art and provide nutritious food. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my baby is well taken care of. It’s truly takes a village to raise a baby and ‘Tiny Steps MB’ daycare is our village
Olga TsoyMay 17, 2023We adore this daycare! Our son has been going here since he was 8 months old, and he absolutely loves it. The providers are all so kind and caring; Shaki, the lead teacher, has been here for over a decade. Our son, now a few months shy of 2, is always super excited to go -- he gleefully shuts the door in my face after I drop him off! The kids play outside whenever it's nice, and have weekly music classes and daily circle time where they learn numbers, colors, etc. They provide food, which is amazing, and were happy to work around his nap times. The providers truly seem like they care about my son and his quirks, and we are so grateful to them for everything they do! PS. Also note that this is a totally separate entity -- with a totally different director -- than the other Tiny Steps, which has multiple locations throughout Brooklyn.
Susan ShainMay 17, 2023We had a great experience at Tiny Steps MB. The caretakers, Tanya, Miriam and Kate, are kind and super competent. We always felt that our baby was in good hands and she would come home with a little card stating her naps, feed times, etc., which we really appreciated. We know the caretakers loved her and she loved them too the way she would smile at them. On Mondays they have a music class, which I would love to be a fly on the wall for. The space is on the smaller side and a third floor walkup, but you can store your stroller in the hallway, which is a HUGE plus for parents commuting after the drop off. Also, it is more affordable than most of the other day cares in the Park Slope area. Thank you, Tiny Steps MB!
Aly CarlottiFeb 7, 2023No frills daycare with competent and loving caretakers. We sent our daughter to Tiny Steps MB at a different location (since closed during COVID) and our son to this location. Some of the same caretakers have been there through both kids, which is rare in this industry! There are two classrooms, both with a range of ages- they are flexible with your child’s needs and can tell when they are ready for the next thing (food, diaper size, milestone, etc.), and also helped me potty train our daughter. Not a ton of updates throughout the day, but we have always been happy and confident that our kids are safe, happy, and we’ll taken care of!
