If I could rank them 100 stars I would. I have had my children in Stepping Stones for almost 3 years now. My oldest daughter had never been to daycare prior to starting here and we were so nervous. From day one, we’ve always felt safe and welcome. When I had my second child, putting her in daycare at an infant age was nerve wracking, but I couldn’t ask for a better daycare to ease those worries. I have never had any type of negative feelings leaving my babies in the care of Stepping Stones Troy. The facility is clean, fun and educational! The teachers and staff are some of the best people I have ever met, and we love seeing their smiling faces each morning. I couldn’t be more thankful and blessed to know these wonderful people are caring for my girls each day ❤️
hailey williamsMay 7, 2026We could not be more grateful for the amazing care and support our daughter receives at Stepping Stones of Troy every single day. The staff truly goes above and beyond to make every child feel safe, loved, and valued. It is so comforting as a parent to know that they genuinely care for each and every child as if they were their own. They create such a fun, positive, and educational environment where the kids are constantly learning, growing, and making wonderful memories. From creative activities to educational lessons and social development, they make learning exciting for the children. Most importantly, they prioritize the safety and protection of every child, which gives us complete peace of mind. We are incredibly thankful for all the love, patience, and dedication the staff shows daily. Highly recommend Stepping Stones of Troy to any parent looking for a caring and trustworthy childcare center
Jesse CheslaMay 7, 2026Stepping Stones hands down is the best Pre-K /Daycare in the area! The teachers truly care about each student and take the time to make them all feel welcomed and loved! They take multiple field trips with the kids and do fun activities constantly that keep the kids all hungry for learning! It’s hard to trust your child with strangers but at Stepping Stones it doesn’t feel like strangers it feels like family! Beyond that the directors always take any concern and handle it with grace and care! The directors have been on the frontlines as teachers so they know what kinds of things are needed in a PreK and always use that knowledge to make sure all their students and daycare kids are taken care of! Look no further for where to send your kiddos! Stepping Stones in Troy is the best place! Not only do our kids feel safe and have learned so much but they also feel happy and loved and we couldn’t ask for more! We can’t wait for our next kid to be old enough to come to their PreK program again!
Dylan SaxonMay 7, 2026Stepping Stones has been such a wonderful place for my daughter. The staff are incredibly passionate and friendly- they always have a smile on their faces and make us feel welcome. They’re always willing to talk with me and make sure I feel informed. It’s clear how much they care about the children and everything they do. The facility is very clean and has so many activities and toys for the children to explore. My daughter is excited to go every morning and loves spending time with her friends and teachers. I’m grateful to have found such a positive, caring environment for her.
Marlee PickMay 7, 2026I have had 4 children go through stepping stones in the Troy location from the baby room (12 weeks old) all the way through pre-k graduation (5 years old). We have had great experiences with stepping stones, especially more recently! The communication has been excellent, my (last) child loves her teachers, and has been prepared for kindergarten. She knows all of her letters, sounds of letters, can recognize numbers, and can count to 30. While I’m so excited to no longer have a daycare bill after 13 years, we will miss the teachers at stepping stones! I would highly recommend this daycare and preschool to anyone who is currently looking to get their child involved in care.
Emily WheelerMay 6, 2026Absolutely love everything about this daycare! All the staff are so nice and I’m definitely comfortable leaving my children there with no hesitation! I see improvement in my kids skills everyday!

Questions parents ask about STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL
Is STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL a licensed child care provider in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL holds Pennsylvania certificate 102873620-0004, listed as "LICENSED" by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning in Bradford County. The current certificate runs to October 29, 2027. Confirm current standing at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch before enrolling.
What is STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL's Keystone STARS rating?
- Pennsylvania rates STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL STAR 4, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on September 21, 2025. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.
Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL?
- No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL at the time the record was published. That is a single field in a snapshot, not a full compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. The licensing inspection detail is at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch.
Does STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL accept child care subsidy?
- Yes. STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL holds a subsidy agreement with the state. The agreement covers these age groups: Infant and toddler, Preschool, School-age. An agreement means the provider can bill the subsidy programme, not that a funded place is free today. Eligibility is decided by your Early Learning Resource Center, Early Learning Resource Center for Region 11.
Does this page show inspection results for STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL?
- No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects STEPPING STONES PRESCHOOL's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
