About Us

Tiny Tauk About Us

Hi, I'm Lauren, creator of TinyTauk. I have been operating my business here in beautiful Montauk for the past 6 years and it's very possible that I have already taken care of your children! If not, let me tell you a little bit about myself…

I have over 28 years of experience as a caregiver to prominent families in New York – some include the owner & developer of Ubisoft, a former South African supermodel, an artistic reality TV star, a Manhattan socialite, and a cast member of the TV show Blue Bloods to name (and not name) a few.

After receiving training as a postpartum doula and choosing a more relaxed way of life, I moved to Montauk full-time in 2018. Here, I focus on TinyTauk and my passions such as yoga, painting & illustration, and long walks by the water with my small dog, The Great Gatsby.

I am a certified 30hr RYT Children's Yoga teacher, certified by the Red Cross in infant/child CPR and Anaphylaxis Injector protocols – I hold extensive experience in newborn specialist care, Montessori curriculums and have worked side by side with children's special needs therapists in our playroom.

TinyTauk has been my labor of love since 2019, bringing you convenient evening babysitting on site at our local hotels or in your summer home or rental. In 2021, we expanded our business to include a children's playroom for littles morning camp (under 4 years), movie & pizza nights, kid's yoga and art classes and summer enrichment sessions for all.

 

Thank you for choosing TinyTauk! We look forward to seeing you soon!

Happy Parents

TinyTauk is a lifesaver! We are so grateful for Lauren and her team. From the moment we arrived in Montauk, until they day we left, we knew that our daughter was in the best hands.

Lauren is caring, funny, patient, and kind, and her experience with children, coupled with her deep knowledge of Montauk and the Gurney's resorts, helped to set us at ease during a hectic weekend. It was clear that our daughter adored her immediately. Lauren took great care to ensure that their days together were fun, educational, and active, while also keeping our daughter safe (no easy task, as she was just learning to walk) and well-rested (TinyTauk team members are bedtime magicians!)
We really appreciated Lauren's communication approach – photo texts while we were out, and helpful reminders and follow up before we arrived and during our holiday – and we found the TinyTauk team to be prompt and professional.

If Lauren was willing to move back home with us, we'd be thrilled to work with her every day. But given how much she loves the East End, we will just have to look forward to seeing her the next time we're in town! In the meantime, visitors to Montauk can enjoy their time away knowing that the TinyTauk team is available to make vacation equally wonderful for their little ones!
