Licensed Family Child Care · Rancho Cordova, CA
Where every little step
is met with love.
A warm, home-based child care experience for infants and toddlers — guided by more than 15 years of experience, individualized attention, and a bilingual approach inspired by HighScope and traditional play-based care methods.
Small Class Sizes
A limited number of children means more one-on-one time, closer bonds, and better care for every little one.
Individual Attention
Every child's pace, needs, and personality are seen and honored — never rushed, never overlooked.
A Real Home Environment
Warm, calm, and familiar — children thrive in a real home setting instead of an institutional classroom.
Bilingual Care
Children are gently immersed in both English and Spanish throughout their day, building an early love of language.
Meet Your Caregiver
Hi, I'm Tamy.
For over 15 years, I've had the privilege of caring for infants and toddlers as they take their very first steps — literally and figuratively. Tiny Steps with Tamy was born from a simple belief: every child deserves to be cared for like family.
