My Philosophy:
Knowing that each child is a unique person and helping them to discover their full potential in every area of development is the task at hand. My home and my day revolves around each area of a child's growth and development. I have centers set up to cover every area of a child's developmental needs and plenty of space and time for what children learn best from, PLAY! I give each child the time and space for self discovery and discovering the world around them through personal experiences. They learn best by doing. I provide lots of hands on activities.

I am so fortunate to have met Tina. When I was first looking for a daycare for my child, the first person I met with was Tina. I had a great feeling after interviewing with her and visiting her immaculate daycare. Not wanting to make a decision without looking around, I visited a few more daycares and that solidified my decision to choose Tina. Unfortunately, I waited to long and she was full! 8 months later when I was in need of childcare again, the first person that I reached out to was Tina. Thank goodness she had the availability to take my daughter. I love how Tina cares for all of the children in her daycare as her own. She goes above and beyond to plan exciting and fun days for the children. I feel such relief knowing that I am leaving my child with someone who will care for her as well as I do.

I am truly blessed to have found Tina. She is AMAZING. As a parent it is so hard to find to right place that you can trust to help raise and mold your children the way you want, but Tina does not fall short in any of those areas. She has the right balance of love, play and education. From arts & crafts, to story time, to free play and "homework" my kids always have a lot to show me and tell be about what they have learned. My oldest (3) is already writing his own name and tracing his letters/shapes. My youngest, barely two, counts to 20 and can recite the entire alphabet. Tina makes each day fun and unique and my kids have excelled in so many ways. It is reassuring to know my kids are safe and love going to daycare, they even ask to go on weekends :)
About Tina: She keeps a clean environment with lots of education toys. She is an AMAZING hostess with her love of holidays and parties. And she keeps it easy for open communication on any level. My favorite thing is getting pictures throughout the day of the kids different activities.
Hands down I would recommend Tina to any friend or family member. She has invited us in and treats all of us like family.

I searched and searched for great childcare that met my standards and was elated to find Tina! She is Truly AMAZING! She has taught my kids soooo much and they truly love her. There is no amount of money that pay for someone that cares for your kids and that are keeping them safe. Thank you TINA!!!

My son started with Tina when he was only 6 months old. In my eyes, my little guy was still too young to be spending anytime away from me, but it was time for me to return to my career. That being said, I was really picky and critical when deciding on a place to leave him. I am so fortunate to have found Tina and I highly recommend her to any parent in the same situation. Tina is very organized, she is caring and honest. There's a good balance of fun and educational time and the play are is very well maintained. I really loved every aspect of the daycare and I felt 100% at ease leaving him there. You can see that she genuinely loves the kids and is focused on their happiness and growth. I've had nothing but a great experience with Tina and I highly recommend her.

Both my girls go to Tina's and she is amazing! She truly cares about all the kids and always has fun activities planned for them. Her place is super clean, organized, and safe. She throws holiday parties and gets the parents involved as well. She makes everyone feel like family! This my first experience with daycare and I am so thankful for Tina! Whenever I tell my friends with kids about the girls' daycare they are always amazed at how much Tina does and how communicative she is and ask where I found her. :)

My husband and I were not sure about putting our daughter into daycare but when we met Tina we both knew our daughter would be okay. She's always been very accommodating when she can with our very difficult schedules. She sends texts and picture messages throughout the day and will check in with us to see how our daughter is doing when she has to stay home sick. She truly cares about the kids she watches. She plans fun activities like pool days and picnic days and invites us into her home to celebrate birthdays and holidays as if we were part of the family. Our daughter has learned so many GOOD habits from Tina and my husband and I both agree that putting her in daycare with Tina was the best money we ever spent. Little things like "please" and "thank you", cleaning up after herself, and even potty training can be attributed in large part to Tina. We are so thankful to have found her!

What can I say about this awesome daycare? We're very lucky to have found Tina. My daughter has been with Tina for almost 2 years. She loves coming to play with all her friends. She missed Tina dearly when they went on vacation. Tina is a caring and patience person. Her daycare is safe, fun, and clean. I love that she takes picture of the kids and send them to me. I can see that my daughter is having fun. We will miss her daycare when my daughter starts school in the Fall. :-(

Tina is great! No, truly. My first exposure to Tina was making a preemptive visit to check out the space and meet Tina. I was immediately comfortable with both. Tina has a warm, sweet and energetic personality and her ability to care for the kids shines through. And she truly does care about all of the kids and takes special time to make sure all of the children are cared for in their specific ways too assure growth and development. The playroom is simple, clean, bright with lots of toy options for the kids to play with. Upon walking in the first time, the energy of Tina's home and play space made me feel right at home. Tina has been so giving in inviting into her home for parties, such as Christmas parties, Easter and kids birthday parties. Tina also holds parties just for the kids (Halloween, Easter, Pizza, Thanksgiving) and they love it. Tina is always thinking about what project she should do next with the kids. Not long ago we were scouting out preschools thinking "its just the age we should be doing that". But, discussing the preschool topic with Tina put me at ease. Not only has my daughter developed friendships and bonds with Tina, but Tina is already doing what preschool would do! She keeps them on a varied curriculum and is putting together folders for structured individualized activities this summer. We feel very lucky to have found Tina. Her rate is reasonable and we also appreciate her flexibility in asking if our daughter can come an a additional day here and there, Her response is always "no problem"! I truly appreciate Tina for all she does and our little girl is much happier and knowledgeable for her. Shes a blessing.

My daughter has been going to Tina's daycare for over a year now. Tina not only provides an extremely safe environment for children, but she also engages the children in a myriad of pre-school aged activities. My daughter has grown and learned so rapidly since she has been attending.
Tina is also very kind and loving with the kids. She goes above and beyond to make the kids feel comfortable. Tina also does not have a lot of turn-over. Most of the kids that attend have been there for a long time.
I think the main reason I like Tina's daycare is because I never worry about my daughter's well-being. I know she is safe, happy and well-cared for.

My son is 2 1/2 and has been at Tina's daycare for almost a year now and we couldn't be happier!! We searched far and wide before deciding to go with Tina. She is so hands on with all the kids. I love how she is so structured and in consistent communication with me. I can contact her at ANY time about any questions or concerns I may have. I would Never leave my child with anyone I thought would just be "ok," she is amazing! I trust my son with her 110%. When I pick my son up after work he doesn't even want to leave! She provides dinner and snacks for the kids. She teaches the kids and take pictures to text us parents. She is very reliable and responsible, she's got great energy and is very caring! I can't emphasize how much we love Tina! If you are looking for a daycare look no further, seriously better than public school. Her home is also very clean which was important to us as well. She's got a large backyard where the kids can also play. I have nothing but kind words about her, her family, and daycare. She's like family to us.

My 3 1/2 year old has been with Tina since she was barely 18 months old. I love that Tina provides a structured yet fun and stimulating environment. My daughter always brings home crafts and art work, but is also learning to write her letters, trace, and count. I really appreciate that Tina is already preparing her for pre-K and kindergarten. Tina has supported my little one through potty-training as well. In addition, Tina teaches the kids to get along with one another and she provides a wide-variety of games and activities for the kids. Finally, a special perk is that Tina will sometimes text pictures of my girl to me during the day which is such a great thing to see how she's doing and and to stay connected when I'm at work. I can't recommend her enough!

I found my little Godsend Tina through Care.com after months of searching diligently to find the perfect Caregiver match for my 9 mth. old daughter at the time. I stayed at home with my first daughter and went back to work when my second daughter was 9 mths. old. She was with Tina for almost 2 years, the only reason I had to give up my full-time spot with Tina was because I lost my job. While I am grateful I get to spend this time with my daughter while I look elsewhere for employment, knowing Tina is out there to babysit my daughter is complete peace of mind. My standards were extremely high and probably a little unreasonable. However, Tina has exceeded my expectations and wishes for the at home care she has provided to my daughter. Her at home enviornment is extremely clean and tidy, she teaches her kids, she plans parties and fun activities for the kids. I can honestly say I have not only found a great home away from home for my daughter while I work, but a good friend. as well.

Both my kids go to here and Tina is the best. Her daycare is clean, up to date, and best of all she is great with the kids. They have tons of activities they do and also special days such as Halloween, Easter, and Christmas parties!! I wouldn't leave my kids with anyone else now that I have found Phamily Daycare!! Perfect play area and wonderful backyard for the kids to interact with one another. A++ provider
