Mind and Body Kids Early Childhood Education Center has been a special part of our family for many…read moreyears. My son attended for 3 years, my niece and nephew also went here, and now my daughter has been here since she was 2. She's 4 now, and I honestly couldn't be happier with our experience. Steve and Andrea, the owners, have always been so kind and welcoming. Whenever I have questions or requests, they are always willing to listen and help. The teachers are wonderful, caring, and well-trained, and I truly appreciate everything they do for the kids. My daughter is currently with Ms. Vera and Ms. Amber, and she talks about them all the time at home. I love hearing her little stories about her teachers and what she did at school that day. It really means a lot to me knowing she is happy, comfortable, and surrounded by people who care about her. Looking back at how much she has grown over the past two years makes me so happy. She has become more independent, confident, and creative, and I can see how much she learns every day. I know she still has so much to learn, but I feel confident that with the love and guidance of her teachers, she'll be ready for kindergarten next year. After having so many children in our family attend this school, I can genuinely say that I trust Steve, Andrea, and their teachers. As a parent, being able to drop off my child every morning knowing she is safe, happy, and in good hands means everything. We are so thankful to have found Mind and Body and for all the wonderful memories our family has made here!

this place is MAGICAL. I'm so so so glad we found Stepping Stones! The teachers are full of…read morecompassion and empathy, and provide a beautiful example for my daughter to follow. Mrs. Harpt, Mrs. Jenny, Mrs. Jessie, Mrs. Dunham, Mrs. Page, Mrs. Spade --- these are the teachers my daughter has had direct interaction with, and seriously they are WONDERFUL. I love their approach to resolving conflicts - talk it out, instead of time-outs or punishments. SUPER SMART! Mrs Harpt even has conflict resolution cards that offer different options for the kiddo to take, if s/he feels wronged. It's THE BEST. I love their focus on kindness and respect. When we aided the other day, the ratio was 5 grown-ups to 8 kids. I mean it doesn't get better than that. I also LOVE that the school offers parent aide (volunteer) opportunities that reduce tuition! So, I know all the kids at the school! Which sets my mama heart at ease knowing that my daughter interacts with all sorts of personalities. That way, she and I can discuss her interactions with friends at home, and she can directly transfer what we talk about. I have found myself in an unusual situation with my husband becoming ill, and the directors (Joanne & Julie) and the office staff (Matt & others) have been so very kind --- I forgot my daughters shoes once, and no problem. I had an issue with some aggressive in-laws, and the staff took it very seriously ensuring that no one NOT on the pickup list would ever grab my daughter. Additionally, they have allowed my husband to tag along with me when I aide, which provides him a sense of belonging, even though he lacks capacity to completely fulfill his role in a typical way. The staff and directors are tremendously empathetic, kind, non-reactive, respectful, and truly lovely to interact with. When I can donate or volunteer, I feel HONORED to do so! Whereas in other areas of my life, it can feel like a burden or resentment.... not SSP - It's a really magical place that fills my heart. I have found a family in SSP! (which says a lot since we moved away from family & friends 3 years ago!)

All the teachers are amazing and you can tell they really care about your child and provide such individualized support for each student. My kiddo had never been in any type of preschool or extracurricular classes before he started here last year and I was really worried how'd he'd adjust but they did such a good job giving him all the tools to excel and love learning.

Despite having a 504 Plan, my child's documented accommodations--including dietary needs and reminders to drink water--were not consistently followed. Academically, reading instruction occurred only twice per week, which led to significant delays and was especially concerning given the school's small class size and private setting. There was a noticeable lack of individualized academic support. Supervision and school culture were also troubling. On multiple occasions, staff did not assist my child during drop-off. Inappropriate behavior and language among students went unaddressed, including name-calling from older students. A teacher's response that this behavior "meant they loved her" was deeply concerning and unacceptable. Communication was inconsistent and often unclear. Progress reports were repeatedly delayed and, when finally received, contradicted prior conversations about my child's academic struggles. Additionally, my child's tutor identified academic deficiencies that had never been communicated by the school, and there were inconsistencies between staff regarding her progress. Overall, this experience showed a lack of accountability, communication, and appropriate support. Families should ask detailed questions about accommodations, academic intervention, and how student behavior is handled before enrolling.
