Ms. Tara and Ms. Courtney both became such a huge part of our family’s life during our early parenting years. We grew our family of 5 all with Ms. Tara and saying goodbye once our third headed to Pre-k was so emotional. Beyond being an incredible provider and educator, being a veteran mom of 4 herself was super reassuring to us. Our kids were always overprepared for pre-k, and we have Ms. Tara's curriculum and knowledge to thank. The kids were always so happy at pickup and you could immediately tell they had spent their days playing outside, learning, exploring, and just being kids. Ms. Tara always went above and beyond caring for them from making sure their bellies were full with home-cooked meals, to sending us home with extra food for our picky eaters, cutting fruit into the “ball circles” 😂, and even stocking their favorite snacks because she knew what made them comfortable. She really invests in her program and it's so obvious. As parents of a child with severe allergies, we always felt completely secure with her extensive allergy knowledge and experience. Looking back, we truly feel like Tara was one of the main parts of our village during our first eight years of parenthood. It truly felt like we were leaving family behind once our childcare journey was over, so much so our little guy still facetimes Ms. Tara every so often a year later. We will always be grateful for the love, care, guidance, and support she gave our family. ❤️

We are now on our third child with Miss Tara and truly cannot imagine trusting anyone else with our kids. All three of our children started with her and Ms. Courtney at just 4 months old, and over the years they have become like extended family to us. Her preschool program was honestly a godsend because it allowed us to continue growing our family while keeping all three children and eventually our younger two together in one consistent, loving environment. The small-group setting, home-cooked meals, outdoor play, and hands-on learning gave our children such a strong foundation socially and emotionally before kindergarten. Knowing our babies were loved, safe, and cared for every day gave us complete peace of mind as working parents.

Tara’s Toddler Time has been such an amazing experience for our family! I’ve had two children go through the program, and I can honestly say it was wonderful to watch them learn and grow there. I really love that it’s play-based because the kids are having fun and enjoying being kids, but there is also such a strong focus on learning and education built into everything they do. They do a great job making learning exciting and engaging while helping the kids build important skills along the way. The environment is clean, caring, supportive, and welcoming, and it’s obvious how much time and effort goes into creating a great experience for the children. Lastly, we’ve made life long friendships from attending there. Which says a lot! 🫶🏼 I highly recommend Tara’s Toddler Time to anyone looking for a preschool program that perfectly balances fun and learning!

We absolutely love Tara’s Toddler Time! The play based preschool program creates such a wonderful balance of learning, creativity, social development, and fun. You can see the thought and care that goes into the curriculum and helping each child learn through play and hands on experiences. The small group size is one of our favorite things because it creates such a warm, nurturing environment where every child gets individual attention. Communication is also amazing and parents are always kept informed and connected. The outdoor play and home cooked meals are such special touches and show the level of care Tara puts into her program. As parents, things like safety, communication, learning, cleanliness, nutrition, and knowing your child is genuinely loved matter so much, and Tara’s Toddler Time delivers. It feels more like family than a preschool. Honestly, Tara’s Toddler Time needs an adult program because I’d sign up myself 😂 Highly recommend!

Our family has had such a wonderful experience at Tara’s Toddler Time. Ms. Tara creates a warm, loving environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and excited to learn every day. The small-group setting, home-cooked meals, and play-based preschool activities truly make it feel like a second home instead of just a daycare. We’ve especially loved how much focus is placed on social-emotional growth, outdoor play, creativity, and hands-on learning. It’s clear how much experience, education, and genuine care go into this program, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly.

My little guy has been with Ms. Tara since he was 6 weeks old (He's now 3) We were hesitant to use daycare during a pandemic, but Ms. Tara and Ms. Courtney put our minds at ease. Our guy is so happy to see them each morning and literally runs in the door ready for the day. It's reassuring to have a place that feels like family caring for your child. We will be sending our infant in the Fall as we cannot think of another place we'd feel more comfortable caring for our babies.
