My 4 year old started stepping stone in March of 2024 when I decided to return to work. It was the…read moreonly daycare with availability I felt comfortable sending him to in the area. When I came to make the initial payment and the director asked if I wanted to meet his teacher I of course said yes. We went outside where the kids played and I was excited to see who he'd be with all day. Mind you, this was to be his first time ever being away from me. His teacher was young, and looked super uninterested in talking. She said hi with what I couldn't even consider a smile, and didn't say much to my son. At drop off his first day the morning teacher didn't say much either. She didn't really offer any assistance when I was trying to leave and my son was visibly scared and upset. This went on for the weeks he was there. I did not like the staff member who hung out with the kids until his teacher showed up. She said good morning and that's about it. Towards the end I think she could tell I was irritated and offered my son things to keep him occupied while I left. My overall feel was these "teachers" don't like being there. I did not like this environment. When The lighthouse opened we made the switch and it was night and day! My son was SO EXCITED for daycare because the staff is AMAZING! I got constant updates, I don't have to ask for his meals to be updated through the day, he was engaged, the teachers are engaged and happier. I would never suggest Stepping stone to anyone.

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! We toured several daycares before making our decision and once we toured…read morethis establishment, we knew it was the best one in several ways. Each team member was so polite and knowledgeable. Ms Alice is the sweetest most kind hearted individual. You can truly tell she cares about each and every child there. As a first time mother, she immediately gave the reassurance that I needed to feel comfortable and confident with leaving my baby there. My baby started at just 8 weeks. The gigabyte classroom and all their teachers including Ms Dorthy, Ms Jackie, Ms Kiana, and more, showed so much love toward Jackson immediately. They surprised us with crafts and daily photos. Every day, pick up and drop off was efficient and welcoming. The monthly cost is truly worth it for the value and time that each team member bring day after day. I cannot recommend this place enough. I know Jackson is still growing and may not remember these days but, as his parents, this place and staff will hold a deep place in our heart.

The Morgan Center is a beautiful facility with teachers who truly care about the children they look…read moreafter. They have certified teachers in every classroom, bi-lingual staff, as well as usage of ASL with infants. Their low student/teacher ratio means children often get one-on-one attention and are cared for as individuals, not as a massive herd. The facilities are kept clean, the food and snacks healthy, and the toys, games, and activities are abundant. Special shout out to Julia, the Director of The Morgan Center. I've always known her to be kind, hardworking, and a lovely person all-round! She truly values her role, and it's exemplified in the effort she puts into making TMC one of the best daycare centers in our community. One of my favorite things about TMC is that it's an inclusive center, where children with special needs are educated together with their neurotypical peers. It's wonderful to have children of all backgrounds come together at such an early age, allowing for better communication and social skills, stronger empathy, and an appreciation of diversity at such a pivotal age. I highly recommend The Morgan Center if you want to ensure your little ones receive the best care possible, in a loving environment that focuses on education, emotional development, and inclusion.

The foundation they received at La Casa helped inspire a lasting curiosity and genuine love of learning. They developed strong math fundamentals, and my son, who is dysgraphic, began discovering the learning strategies that best supported him as a reader.

Kids are outside majority of the day ( outside time is needed but work and instruction time is also needed)- sleep for 3h. School do not follow Montessori protocol. Owner- yells and accuse kids. You don't have a voice as a parent. If you dare communicate something to the school that your child communicated with you- you will be told well " my staff and i didn't see it; so it didn't happen". Owner utilize fear to gain compliance even in parents. If you dare try different - you're done. Multiple sexual abuse/ aggravation accusations/ allegations made. STEER CLEAR. If you try to ask for funds that you paid; cops will be called on you and the location will be made a criminal trespassing ground. The owner claims she been working with kids for 30 years and she knows best but advise you to spank your kids. Scientifically proven that hitting your kids have long lasting effects. She is an older person, that acts like a child but demand respect from all. She only sees things her way and no other way. You're wrong if you disagree with her, your wrong if she feels threatened. You're wrong if you breath wrong. The co owners. God bless his heart. He is a good man and seems to care for the kids. Workers are great- they are all scared to speak their mind and will blindly agree to anything she says to avoid being in trouble. Now i am a single mother of twins. No where in this encounter was i perfect. I've had my flaws but communicating what my kids said to me- is not one of them.

My daughter can swim, knows mandarin, Spanish, sign language, English, dances ballet and goes to soccer all at stepping stone. THANKS to Priscilla who does a fabulous job running the place. Those including Ms. Kristi and Ms. Madison step their game up and I can't believe Brittany could be so judgmental based on two random experiences. She probably sent the email to the wrong location and I'm grateful she's still in school. Hopefully, it will teach her how to treat herself with respect so she can share that quality with others. *Gabby* - accidents happen. One of my kids bit another kid many, many times - like chewed on him - when another caregiver accidentally looked away for just a few minutes. I was so embarrassed and felt so bad for the other kid and the other mom. It could have been blown WAY out of proportion, thankfully it wasn't and it was years ago. Attacking women put on this Earth to protect and defend our little ones while we are at work is shameful.

My daughter was at another daycare for two years that we loved! No issues and no incident reports. The 7 months she was at Stepping Stone were awful. Coming home with massive bruises from bites that staff did not notice. I repeatedly emailed but she kept being bitten by multiple children. We kept waiting for Children's Lighthouse to finish being built but it was hard as an educator who provides other people's children with a safe learning environment not to have a safe place to send my toddler. The last straw was her reporting to us a teacher hit her. Pulled her immediately. Ms. Brittany did not seem surprised when we told her of our concern.
