Welcome to Tiny Tigers Daycare

Description of Services
At Tiny Tigers, we believe children grow and thrive when surrounded by love, security, and engaging opportunities to explore. Our goal is to provide a safe, stimulating environment where every child feels valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential.
Children learn best through play, hands-on experiences, and meaningful interactions with peers and caring adults. With this in mind, Tiny Tigers provides a variety of developmentally appropriate activities designed to nurture growth across all areas — social, emotional, physical, and cognitive.
Our curriculum is individualized to meet each child’s unique needs and interests while promoting the development of the whole child. Teachers plan experiences that encourage exploration, creativity, problem-solving, and self-expression through direct sensory experiences and active learning.
We strive to maintain a balance between:
- Child-initiated play, where children explore their own ideas;
- Child-directed learning, where their choices guide the day; and
- Teacher-supported activities, where staff introduce new concepts and skills through encouragement and modeling.
At Tiny Tigers, every activity and interaction is designed to build confidence, curiosity, and joy in learning — helping children develop the strong foundation they need for lifelong success.
Curriculum & Activities
Our program serves children from birth through school age and offers a semi-structured environment that balances guided learning, individual exploration, and plenty of playtime. Each day includes a mix of indoor and outdoor activities designed to nurture creativity, curiosity, and confidence.
We plan experiences that help children grow across all areas of development. Activities are designed to teach, inspire, and delight, while encouraging every child to participate at their own comfort level.
Here are some examples of the types of activities your child might enjoy at Tiny Tigers:
- Small Muscle Development
Coloring, puzzles, playdough, blocks, and other age-appropriate manipulatives that strengthen fine-motor skills. - Large Muscle Development
Crawling, marching, running, jumping, and dancing to promote coordination and physical health. - Creative Play
Dramatic play areas such as puppets, dress-up clothes, play kitchens, dollhouses, workshops, and beauty shops encourage imagination, language, and social interaction. - Arts and Crafts
Projects that emphasize creativity, following directions, and taking pride in completing tasks. - Music and Movement
Singing, finger plays, musical instruments, and dance activities that foster rhythm, expression, and joy. - Science Exploration
Hands-on learning through cooking, planting seeds, observing nature, and exploring simple experiments that build observation and problem-solving skills. - Math Skills
Counting, sorting, measuring, and using numbers naturally throughout the day—during calendar time, cooking, or play. - Language and Literacy
Storytime, discussions, and Smart Board activities that promote vocabulary, listening, and communication. “Sharing Time” gives children the chance to speak and listen respectfully to others. - Personal Responsibilities
Children learn independence by helping with daily routines such as cleaning up after meals, putting toys away, and caring for personal belongings. Each morning, children also have the opportunity to be “special helpers,” assisting with classroom jobs.
