Rising Stride Child Care Center of Drexel Hill

Our son just graduated from rising stride and he feels very confident for his upcoming kindergarten adventure. Ms Selena did a great job along with Mauricios teachers , ms Emily ,ms Sherlyn and all teachers for the past 2 years helping him with his growth and development. Every morning was exciting and afternoons full of giggles as mau always looked forward to the next day in class. We missed them a ton already.

There are some people who come into your children’s lives and leave footprints that last forever. For our family, Rising Stride Child Care Center of Drexel Hill has been one of those places. Since 2017, Rising Stride has been more than a child care center to us. It has been an extension of our family. Over the past eight years, they have cared for, educated, encouraged, and helped shape the lives of all three of our children: Deron Jr., Desiree, and Dominic, who proudly graduates tomorrow.As parents, one of the hardest things we do is trust others with our children. From the very first day we walked through the doors of Rising Stride, we knew we had found something special. The warmth, professionalism, compassion, and genuine love shown by every member of the staff immediately put our minds at ease. We never felt like our children were simply enrolled at a daycare. We felt like they were part of a community that truly cared about their success, happiness, and well being. Over the years, we have watched our children grow academically, socially, and emotionally under the guidance of an extraordinary team. The teachers and management have consistently gone above and beyond to create a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, encouraged, and inspired to learn. A very special thank you goes out to Ms. Selena, Ms. Maritza, Ms. Sherly, Ms. Emily, and Ms. Tasyah. Each of you has touched our family’s life in ways that words cannot fully express. Your patience, kindness, dedication, and unwavering commitment to the children you serve have made an immeasurable difference. The love you show every day is evident in the smiles of the children who walk through your doors and in the confidence they carry as they leave. Watching Dominic reach this milestone is emotional for us because Rising Stride has been a part of so many important moments in our family’s journey. The foundation you helped build for him, and for Deron Jr. and Desiree before him, will continue to benefit them for years to come. You helped teach them not only letters, numbers, and lessons, but also confidence, friendship, respect, kindness, and a love of learning.As our youngest child graduates tomorrow, it truly feels like the end of an era for our family. While we are excited for what lies ahead, there is also a deep sense of gratitude and appreciation for everyone at Rising Stride who helped us reach this moment. The memories made here, the relationships formed, and the countless acts of care and support will never be forgotten. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for every hug, every encouraging word, every lesson taught, every milestone celebrated, every challenge overcome, and every ounce of love you poured into our children.To any parent searching for a place where their child will be genuinely loved, nurtured, challenged, encouraged, and prepared for success, we wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Rising Stride Child Care Center of Drexel Hill. The staff and leadership are exceptional, and the impact they have on families is truly priceless. For eight years, when Precious and I dropped our children off each morning, we knew they were in caring hands. That peace of mind is a gift that every parent understands and values. Rising Stride gave us that gift day after day, year after year. Thank you for being teachers, mentors, role models, cheerleaders, and a source of support through every stage of our children’s development. The impact you have made on our family cannot be measured.With endless gratitude, respect, admiration, and love,Deron Ellis Sr, Precious Ellis, Deron Jr., Desiree, and Dominic Ellis

Everything was wonderful about the Drexel Hill location the staff the children and the other parents. I wish that we did not have to move because it was my son's favorite place to go. Jojo grew up so much in his time there and was giving some life skills from his teachers and the children that will help him be an amazing toddler. Thank you all so much! Big shot out to MRS. SHIRLEY he will always remember those hugs lol we will miss you all. 5 stars

Our daughter spent about a year at rising stride and just graduated from pre-k. The environment Ms Samantha has created in her classroom has helped our daughter thrive in the best way possible! The directors are wonderful communicators and transparent with parents, giving parents peace of mind their children are in a safe and nurturing environment. You also get camera access in this center which we absolutely loved! Thank you Ms Selena and Ms Maritza for bringing in such wonderful teachers and creating a safe and fun environment for kids at rising stride!

My grandson Lucas has been at this magnificent Preschool /Daycare since he was 2 and I can say that the teachers/staff are well mannered and highly motivated and respectful, they go out there way to make sure every child is loved and supported and definitely prepared for the next level. Thank you guys so much for all that you guys do and for the love my grandson has received and for making sure every child is safe.
