Do not take your children to this "institution." the lack of transparency and communication is something I did not know existed in child care. Unfortunately, our child was there for a little over a year. They claim to be STEM based but there are only two English speaking teachers employed at the Edgewater location, of which are frequently not there at the same time. Most of the staff is not licensed and it shows. Incident after incident and lack of accountability or oversight is a common occurrence. I feel terrible for subjecting my child to this place but I hope future parents will avoid this terribly run operation read more

I highly recommend having your child cared for,taught and loved at Tiny Hearts Academy.If you are interested in finding a rewarding job or a safe place for your child. T.H.A. is it. The atmosphere at Tiny Hearts Academy is calming,instructive, and motivating. The management is caring and always ready to lead a hand.The Teachers are patience,loving and highly skilled for the care of your child. T.H.A has been very rewarding. FIVE STAR SCHOOL! read more

This "academy" has an extremely high turn over rate, ill equipped and poorly trained staff, charge as much as a mortgage payment and have no idea how to properly train and guide children in their academic careers. They suspend and expel preschoolers instead of looking at the real problem which is their staff. My nephew was expelled from this "school" because of his "disruptive" behavior. He doesn't like circle time apparently. The owners sent an email to my sister saying that effective immediately my nephew could no longer attend. While no kid is perfect and sometimes schools aren't a perfect fit for families you certainly don't expel 4 year olds and give parents NO time to find another option via an email! A better exit strategy that was more thought out and certainly handled more professionally should have occurred. They need to focus more on finding and KEEPING well trained staff that work with all types of children's behaviors. If you can't keep staff then that is reflective of a bigger problem and shouldn't be the responsibility of a 4 year who is labeled bad simply because the staff is bad. Shame on you. This place is owned by would be child professionals who have no education in actual child development. read more

Tiny Hearts Academy is not a good place to work. As a former employee, I began working with children, which is what I am licensed to do. After a new director was hired, I was then required to clean the kitchen and staff bathrooms, on a daily basis. This organization treats employees poorly and I do not recommend it to anyone already working or anyone who is interested in working in the childcare field. Look elsewhere. read more

Why are there only 5 stars?! I would give THA an infinite number if possible. My son has been going to THA for almost 3 years now and we absolutely love it. They are very flexible and have great hours. I can see the growth and learning every day! All of the teachers in the baby and toddler rooms love having him and he loves seeing them. They have seen him grow since he was in the infant room and have become part of his development. Best of all, the children seem very happy there and love the teachers and fun environment. When I see my son interact with the other kids, it makes my heart happy to see how sweet they are towards each other, as the teachers encourage the kids to be kind. I rest assured that my son is in more than capable hands when he's not home. read more

We've had the fortunate experience of being some of the first clients of the Green Mountain THA. Our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Miss Karly is an absolutely fantastic teacher and really puts her heart in her work. I doubt our little guy will get half as much personal attention in kindergarten this fall. We've found the STEM-based curriculum to be inventive and engaging. The administration folks are very friendly and have been more than happy to accommodate changes in our schedules. A highly recommended, much-needed addition to the area. read more

Tiny Hearts has been a perfect fit for our family. We needed to find care for our first child and were very nervous and cautious about the centers we'd previously toured. Tiny Hearts was the first center where my wife and I knew our daughter would be in good hands. The center is comfortable, clean and well managed. The owners are the first face you see most days and are very easy to communicate with. Our family would highly recommend Tiny Hearts to all, especially first time parents read more

We cannot say enough great things about Tiny Hearts for the entire first year of our baby's life. My husband and I started the stressful process of finding infant care for our son before he was born. The first place we toured was Tiny Hearts in Lakewood with one of the owners, Andy. He was great from the beginning by calming our nerves and understanding how big of a decision finding care for our newborn would be. Andy answered every question we had during our initial tour and helped us become more knowledgeable on infant care requirements in Colorado. As our toured ended, he encouraged us to tour other daycare facilities and choose the best fit for our family. The best fit ended up being Tiny Hearts Lakewood. Our baby started at three months and has been there for almost a year. The owners and teachers absolutely love our son like he was their own. Our baby does not even look back at us when we drop him off, he can't wait to play with the other babies and gives his teachers the biggest smiles. The teachers provide daily updates on things they did in class, time of feedings, and even do creative projects specialized for each baby. They also have a great motto of "Raising a child takes a village and we're proud to be part of the tribe". I would recommend Tiny Hearts to any family, as they were the perfect fit for our family. read more

I'm giving one star because of some of the AMAZING teachers otherwise it would be negative stars! The owners are so far from AMAZING...ultimately it seems that an obsession over ratings results in poor decisions. The closures are obscene! 20 days in 1 year, there were days when it wasn't snowing yet & they closed, at the start of the Pandemic they closed for 2 weeks without a confirmed case just get a noise on Thursday, oh were closing Monday for 2 weeks we had 1 day notice to get care. They dont care how it'll affect your job but they will always remind that you still need to pay the full amount even when closed. They'd make me get ridiculous notes from my doctor, like wanted antibiotics perscibed for a virus...my pediatrician would just laugh & write in the note they don't do what they are asking them to do.They discouraged potty training because of their lack of appropriate facilities, CAUSED allergic reactions from using different diapers & wipes than we provided (which you have to provide) but they still use someone else's stuff. My child suffered with welts, pain & repeated rashes that were caused because they went against our & our doctors instructions. A teacher even wrote a rude inappropriate note about my child being wet, implying I wasn't changing her, but in fact we had seen a doctor because of excessive urination & she is fine, just something that happens to her & I... but instead of talking to me I get this horrible note which I of course escalate because it was soooo inappropriate. The teacher says she's going to apologize then avoids me like the plague till she gets fired for something else and Andy would only say "Well I'm not going to make an adult apologize"! Seriously, the parents are what keep you in business & you'll allow them to be treated like this because I was vocal for my child, I am her voice... Andy just wanted us to leave, like we were the problem. The wait to get out was long, stressful and so hard. Just terrible. Now that I've seen the difference this place is nothing they claim, my child is thriving. I couldn't be happier to be free! read more

I wouldn't trust anyone else with my son other than the staff at Tiny Hearts Academy! Being a new mom with an infant who had a few obstacles to overcome, right away I felt so comfortable and stress free leaving my son at THA. Everyday I drop him off, I leave knowing he is in the best hands there are. Every single person (owner, teacher, staff member, etc) is so warm and welcoming. I absolutely love THA! read more

The THA at Green Mountain has been nothing but wonderful to my youngest son. For better or worse, I am a "veteran daycare" mom, and the THA is a great option that comes at a (relatively) cheaper price point than comparable places. I found the teacher turnover - which is generally problematic for the industry - to be actually better than I have seen elsewhere. The infant teachers are very pleasant, loving, and are willing to go extra mile to make sure babies are comfortable. I absolutely love that this location has a large outside area, and even the babies get to go outside on a weekly basis, not something that is common, in my experience. They wash bottles/Tupperware/crib sheets (and they actually do a good job), which is huge help to parents. I saw one or two reviews complaining about the lack of follow-up with immunization records. In my experience, they have been very thorough with all paperwork/procedure. The THA is still relatively small but growing and figuring it out along the way, so, yes, like any other place, they have some stuff they can do better. That said, I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience there and am sad that our tenure there is coming to an end (for family reasons that have nothing to do with the THA). I would trust them with a baby in a heartbeat and would absolutely recommend to family and friends. read more

I wanted to like Tiny Hearts- I really did. My concerns are limited to the infant room- I cannot speak to the toddler rooms (except that I constantly heard staff yelling at children to behave). We had one issue after another and none were addressed, even when I tried to follow up- they attempted to send home the wrong child with me (even when I said I was not Riley's mom), the teachers used phones to entertain my infant (even though they have a no screens policy), they did not collect immunization paperwork from me (or from other families as I learned after I pulled my daughter from their program), they threw away 16 ounces of my milk, gave my child someone elses' formula and in general seemed to not favor communicating with families. When I tried to be solution oriented and address my concerns, no one followed up and they tried to charge us for another month. In just the last few months, I've encountered more than 10 families who pulled their children because of similar concerns- Colorado kids deserve better quality care- there are not enough high quality options in Colorado. read more
