Fantastic independently run daycare in the heart of downtown D.C. My wife and I had had a bad experience at a previous daycare with our oldest and were so happy to come across Tiny Findings! Our daughter has been enrolled there since summer of 2021 and our experience as a Tiny Findings family has been wonderful. The staff is dedicated and knowledgeable, and the facilities pristine and well appointed. The infants' classrooms even have separate, dedicated nap rooms where the children can sleep with the lights off and a white noise machine on, which is an infinite improvement over many other centers that simply have cribs in the same room where the other children are playing and making noise. Also nice, the fact that lunch and snacks are provided, for those infants who are eating solid foods. It saves my wife and I at least 30 minutes in the morning not to have to pack a lunch and snacks every day (vegetarian options available for those kids who don't eat meat).Another thing that has set our minds at ease are the strong Covid protocols in place. All staff are fully vaccinated, toys are disinfected after a child has played with them, and anyone who exhibits symptoms must obtain a negative Covid result prior to returning to class. Our old center had no vaccine mandate and no testing/cleanliness protocols in place and experienced several outbreaks. In contrast, since reopening, there has not been a single case among any of the children at Tiny Findings.Best of all are the teachers, who are wonderful and incredibly caring. They genuinely care about our daughter and ensuring not only that she hits all of her developmental milestones, but that she has fun doing so. At our old daycare, our daughter used to cry every day when we dropped her off. Now she cries when we pick her up because she doesn't want to leave. A wonderful center with a phenomenal staff in a convenient downtown location. I truly cannot say enough good things about it.
