Small Steps Daycare

My daughter went here almost 3 years. She grew to love the teachers and felt it was a family environment. They have 3 separate sections for different aged kids with activities best for their age. They use an app during the day to send photos and updates which I absolutely loved. If there ever was a problem Ms Karen (owner) was always available to talk and listen to your concern. We left due to moving out of the state but if we hadn't moved I would still be there. Great daycare!

My daughter has attended daycare here for 2 and 1/2 years and we will be sad to be leaving due to entering pre school. My daughters experience here was so beneficial to her. She was taught a lot of social skills as well a great curriculum that has put her ahead of her peers. Communication with the daycare was very professional and they were quick to respond via kinderlime app. I love the fact that we need a key card to enter as well as providing healthy snacks and drinks throughout the day ❤️ When we do expand our family this will be our first choice to provide care :)

This is an amazing daycare to take your kids. I’ve been going here since 2016 and my son loves going to this daycare. He wakes up every morning asking me to go to daycare so he could see his friends and teachers there. I also have my 18 month old daughter that go here as well and she loves it. She loves walking into daycare and seeing the teachers and the kids. The teacher are amazing and take good care of my kids when they are there. They always clean feed and always happy when I go there. Ms. Karen is an amazing people and she cares about the family’s that attended her daycare. I wouldn’t send my kids anywhere else besides here

My son loves it there! When he is having emotional morning(from waking up to early)going in his teachers take him and hug him and tell him everything will be fine. They even offer to lay him down to continue to rest if he needs it. They always have breakfast ready for the kids as they walk in. My son teachers update the app with everything they are doing including taking pics(which is why they have the phones out) also they use their phones to update the app. Ive walked in on them taking the pics and updating the app on their phones. When I had a problem with something Karen took care of the problem within 24 hours of the issue taking place. My son has never been in danger at this daycare. please believe I would never bring him back if he was! Family emergency, vacations, and poor employee actions are out of Karen's control but believe me she gets the coverage and staff help in every room! No work environment is perfect weather you work there or not! If they state thought this place was so terrible she would not be in business! Going above and beyond and trying ruin this ladys dream business is disturbing. If your unhappy close that chapter and take your business elsewhere ! No need to leave a mess behind you as you walk out! Karen Thank you for all you do and keeping my son happy!

My children are presently at this center. They have been there since March. They were with a home provider since birth (one for 2 year and one for 4 years) who they were very attached to but that provider closed. I was VERY picky on a center when I had to move them. I researched tons of daycares and visited 5. I made my choice to send them to Small Steps and I am glad that I did. My son loves the preschool class and the teachers. My daughter loves the teachers in the toddler room and her friends. I have stopped into this daycare unannounced at different times of the day and NEVER found anything inappropriate going on and my children are always happy, clean, fed, changed and tired at the end of the day when I pick them up. My daughter who catches everything easily has not been sick once since she started there except for the basic cold. She is in the same room as the child that came down with MRSA and not one other child there has it including her. Anytime I did have a concern I spoke with Karen and she addressed it. They have fun activities (this week is teddy bear week where they even had a teddy bear picnic) and they have an app that you can check on the kids through out the day. I am writing this review on my own free will without any persuasion from anyone because I don't think that it is fair for someone to be writing review after review bashing a business and making up fake accounts to leave additional reviews and having their friends leave reviews that have not now or ever had their kids there or even have kids! Clearly there is a scorned parent here who had "concerns" with a daycare that they left their child in and didn't have anything bad to say until her child got "terminated". Anyone looking from the outside in can clearly see what is wrong with this picture and what is really going on here. The child was terminated, the parent didn't make the choice to take the child out even after expressing concerns. Reading family members of the terminated child who state that she heard horror stories everyday about the daycare BUT the parent left the child there instead of taking her out. I know if I had concerns like that, I would have pulled my kids out IMMEDIATELY. I back up the owners decision because in my eyes she made a decision based on protecting the other children there from a contagious disease. If anyone knows anything about MRSA you would know the most popular place to contract the disease is in a nursing home on which its been said that the parent works. Slander and defamation of character can be a serious issue. There is a difference between opinion, freedom of speech and defamation of character. This is a real review from a satisfied parent of children that presently attend this daycare.
