We can't say enough about how much our family loves Tiny Texans! From the moment we enrolled our children, we knew we had found a special place that goes above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment for our little ones. The level of care, attention, and love that the staff provides is simply remarkable. It's evident that the staff genuinely cares about our kids' well-being and development, and this is incredibly reassuring for us as parents. The daycare's facilities are clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to promote learning and play. We love the themed classrooms and outdoor play areas that encourage our children's imagination and creativity. Our boys are always excited to enter the building and enjoy spending time with friends and teachers that truly love them. One of the things that truly sets Tiny Texans apart is their commitment to education. The curriculum is both fun and educational, promoting growth in all aspects of development. Our oldest son was almost completely non-verbale when we enrolled him in daycare and with the help of his speech therapist and the constant support and encouragement from the staff and director Vanessa Rivera, he finished his first year completing 2-3 word phrases and we could just tell the quality of his life was improving! He definitely had made significant strides in his social and cognitive development, and our little one is thriving in the infant program. It's comforting to know that the staff at Tiny Texans are not just babysitters; they are educators who foster a love for learning.

Parent Testimonials
My family wanted to express our appreciation for the program that has allowed educators to send their littles to Tiny Texans. As you know childcare is not easy to come by or a cheap bill. It is even harder to trust strangers with your heart that lives outside of your body. This opportunity has given my family relief in all areas. We are so impressed with all the staff involved. They all made us feel welcomed, heard, and cared for. We felt we were leaving our kids in capable minds and hands. The building, equipment, staff, and kids are all incredible. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for putting our hearts, minds (and wallets) at ease. We look forward to this year and watching our little one grow along her new friends and family.

The staff at Tiny Texans is beyond amazing! Not only do they care for my daughter, but me as well! They always spend the time to talk to me and update me on her day, or show pictures. Her teacher goes above and beyond and has a chart that tells me how she does each hour. Not only does her teacher update me, but even other teachers tell me about my daughter’s progress. Tiny Texans is literally full of superheros. Thank you for providing a safe, and amazing place for my little girl to learn!
Kendra Albarado
I absolutely love Tiny Texans and so does Allie! It’s so comforting to know each morning when she’s dropped off that she’s getting the best care from an amazing team of teachers with so much heart. The teachers at Tiny Texans really make an effort to engage the kids and help them to develop in their own unique ways. They provide a safe, fun, and loving environment that I’m very grateful for. As a staff member at Crockett Elementary, it’s been such a wonderful experience to see and hear the babies as they’re strolling through the hallways in the big red buggy or to go peek in the windows to see them playing, dancing, and having fun. It will truly brighten anyone’s day! When I hear my daughter repeatedly saying “Nessa” on the way to school in the mornings, I know she’s happy where she is and for that I am so thankful!
