NNEKA BETTSJun 7, 2023If you’re looking for a daycare that feels like an extension of your family, that prioritizes your child’s well-being and development, A Step Up Daycare is it. What sets A Step Up Daycare apart is the genuine care they pour into each child. They don’t just "watch" kids they engage them, teach them, and help them grow emotionally, socially, and academically.
Shirene HicksJun 6, 2023This place is amazing the owner and staff is really nice and even the other children are sweethearts. I can tell that the people who work here truly care about the development and education of the children as I have seen 1 on 1 teaching sessions for the children to improve themselves. Even going as far as to make it fun and exciting for the children. I also really love the events that they put on for them such as trips and activities to different places of fun and education. One day I was told that they learned a ton about through various projects and seeing them in person. I truly enjoy this place and can tell the staff truly cares. The owner is one of the most kind and loving people I have ever met. She loves to have a good time and put on new activities to make sure the children are not only growing and developing but having fun in the process. Dr. Smith is also a lovely individual to talk to. These people will greet you with a smile and address any concerns that you may have in a very professional manner. I highly recommend sending your child here.
Xavier SmithJun 6, 2023A Step Up Career Academy Center is awesome, the director Ms. Shawny has a great personality and a big heart. She goes above and beyond for the families and children that her center serves. I highly recommend this center.
Shanta BrownfieldJun 6, 2023The center is focused on ensuring that the children receive a well rounded education that focus on all the developmental areas social, emotional, cognitive literature, language, physical and intellectual. Children are prepared to further their education after leaving the center. Staff is trained and continue to receive support as they grow in their career.
