I am so grateful and happy with Stepping Stones. We transferred from a large center where there was a lot of turnover and high class sizes, to Stepping Stones which has low teacher turn over, dedicated teachers, and small class sizes, and my son has thrived. The individual attention to the needs of the student, emotionally, developmentally and education-wise are amazing. There is a calm at the school that starts with the owner, impacts the teachers, and trickles down to the students. It’s a magical place. Ms. Marcia is a wonderful teacher, who really sees my son. Thank you Stepping Stones!
I can’t recommend Stepping Stones enough! We had a hard time choosing a daycare/preschool for our daughter with so many options and a somewhat negative experience at a different center. We were so happy to find Stepping Stones and had such a positive experience from the first time we visited and met Lorie. Our daughter attended Stepping Stones from around age 17-24 months, and we would have happily kept her there until kindergarten. We only changed schools because we moved, and we were heartbroken to leave. Our daughter had so much fun, learned so much and developed such wonderful relationships with the students and staff at Stepping Stones. She often talked about her teachers and friends at school and was happy to be dropped off at school, and sometimes sad to leave school. We love that they use the Kid Reports app, where we got to see at least one picture of her almost every day, what and how much she ate, diaper change info, when she napped, any incidents, and if we needed to bring anything. It made me feel so much better being able to see what she was up to while I was at work, and it’s so nice that the teachers take the time to update the app! They provide lunch and snacks - a variety of food, almost all organic, and our daughter ate almost everything offered. While our daughter isn’t the best napper, she took nice long naps at school. There were so many fun toys inside and outside for her to play with. She sang songs, read books (including books to help with social emotional development), and did arts and crafts. We went to a cute muffins with mom event that she still talks about. Lorie and the staff have created such a fun, loving environment where our daughter blossomed, and we will forever be grateful to Stepping Stones for such a positive first school experience for our daughter! If you are considering sending your child to Stepping Stones, you should do it!
My son has only been at Stepping Stones Preschool for a few weeks, but we already love it. Ms Lorie is amazing! I loved her after our first conversation; she is so caring and easy to talk to. Ms Angela is my son's teacher and she is so sweet and patient with him and all the children. I'm so happy I found this school and plan to have my son here until he's 5. All the staff is wonderful and friendly!
We have been fortunate to have both our children attend Stepping Stones since 2013 when we first moved to the Roseville area. My daughter attended from age 2-5 and still enjoys visiting the teaching staff and friends she met while there. Based on the attention and care the staff offered her, we currently have our son enrolled and intend to keep him there until he starts kindergarten. We find Ms. Lorie and her team to be caring and patient with all the children and never have had a complaint with their care for either of our children. They do a great job managing the ratio of teachers to children and did not get the feel that it is overwhelming as we got with some of the bigger preschools in the area. We would strongly recommend Stepping Stones to anyone who is looking for a caring environment with extremely capable staff.
My son Lucas has been attending Stepping Stones for several years. I want to tell you how wonderful this school truly is! All teachers are courteous, kind, patient, dedicated, and caring! It is an environment enriched with learning, happiness, and positive engagement. Lorie is an exceptional leader and awesome teacher. Her preschool is a place I feel, not only comfortable, but excited to leave my son at for the day! Everyday a tradition continues in my car as I drive Lucas to school in the morning. As our car passes the fire station on Roseville Parkway and the building becomes visible, he puts his arms in the air and yells, "yay!" Not joking! Lucas loves his teachers and friends! Stepping Stones is a wonderful choice for our family and we would recommend them to anyone!
