Our daughter has been going to Tiny Bubbles since 9 months old. She absolutely loves it! I disagree with the bad reviews. I've experienced nothing but care, due diligence and professionalism. The staff are great and they know how to deal with different personalities of the kids. I highly recommend Tiny Bubbles! Plus they have soft play there - what kid doesn't love soft play?? ❤️
