Testimonials

“My children had an amazing experience with Tami Hazen. We first met her when my daughter was a newborn and our son was 3 years old. He has special needs and we spent a great deal of time inter- viewing many people and places before finding a match in Tami. They were both given the structure, kindness, and creative environment that they needed. Her love of children was evident with each smile that greeted my children and I every morning. They were exposed to adventures in nature and routines in the classroom that helped create a perfect balance for them both. My son gained so much more con- fidence in his environment and it increased his level of interaction with the world around him. He went from being nonverbal to making sounds and communicating his needs more. Our daughter grew from a baby into an adventurous toddler, who started to blossom with various activities. I would highly recommend Tami to anyone looking for their child to experience learning that organically happens and allows for structure and spontaneity.”

“Our family is so grateful to have met Tami when she became our three year old son’s childcare provider. She helped him to feel comfortable and at ease from the moment he stepped through her door. Tami has a gift for compassion, kindness, wisdom, creativity, and nurturing each child’s own unique talents and expression. We appreciate Tami’s open communication with us as parents, as well as her ability to put us at ease when it comes to questions about child development or suggestions of how to approach certain situations. Our son is almost five now, and he cherishes “Miss Tami” time!” --Tenley W. and Mark B.

“Tami is wonderful. Our son has absolutely thrived in her care. She structures her day in a way that provides consistency for all children and allows them to learn through play-based learning, songs, story time, and other wonderfully creative activities. Outside play happens almost every day and you know it's been a good day when the kids leave nice and muddy. Tami is loving, kind, and incredibly attuned to every child in her care. Dropping off my son every morning is actually a joyful experience because I know he gets so much out of his days with Tami. –Lindsay G.
