What Parents Say
Stepping Stones Discovery & Development Center receives mixed reviews. Most parents praise the dedicated staff, learning environment, and their children's development and comfort. However, one parent reported serious concerns about neglect, including lack of feeding and diaper changes, as well as refund issues.
The staff is truly amazing! They all are dedicated to putting the child first and ensuring that they have a stimulating learning environment. They provide a morning snack lunch and afternoon snack much like most kindergarten classes and work hard in teaching the students what they need to know in order to be successful in their elementary school work. The center cares about each family and accommodates to their needs as best as they can.
I couldn't ask for a more fun and caring place to watch my kid. He has developed so many skills and learned so much just in a short time. He started off crying when I would leave him and became so comfortable there in the first week. He gets excited to see his friends at the daycare and has never come home upset (except when he doesn't want to leave). I will recommend this place to anyone who asks. The staff is professional and kind and communicates with the parents on what they do and learn each week with the children. This place is absolutely worth every penny.
My son was 2.5 years old when when sent him their but didn't like the service they offered, he was not given anything to feed, stayed in the same diaper for hours until we came to pick him up. We tried to be very supportive by changing times but it did not work and I had to leave after informing them in just 3 days. And then called up n wrote mails to see if they could pay after deducting for the 3 days he spent or maybe week, but that didn't happen. I also observed little babies were lying on the ground on some sheets and crying. It was not something expected when you are running kid’s day care school. On all the 3 days, when we reached my son started screaming out loud as he saw us. Then I thought there must be something wrong. I checked his diaper they didn’t care to change, his milk and snack was still in the bag, literally they made him starve for so long. When I asked for refund she plainly denied who owns the Centre. Pathetic behavior that you wouldn’t expect when you send you little ones your precious kid. So, I sent them a mail and discontinued. I still feel bad that I sent my little kid over there.
Very dedicated and hardworking staff members. Every teacher is dedicated to the children. They work to make sure that each child is learning, having fun, and being safe. A great place for children to learn as well as play with others.
I love sending my 2.5 year old here . He’s been going for about 3.5 months and has advanced so much . He was already ahead of the ball but now I think because of “school” , he’s advanced even more ! Everyone there is truly amazing with my son and can’t thank them enough !!
