Stepping Stone V has been a big part of my life for the past four years. My firstborn, Aaron, enrolled when he was just 3 1/2 months old. I was so nervous to leave my baby, but the nursery room teachers made my transition back to work easy. They loved, hugged, cuddled, fed, cleaned, played and taught Aaron every day. Since then, Aaron has moved up through each classroom and is currently in Ms. Claudia's pre-k class - let me just say - bless Ms. Claudia for her patience. My younger son, Sean, enrolled in the nursery room last December and has recently ""graduated"" to Ms. Jessica's toddler class - Sean cannot give Ms. Jessica enough hugs.\r
The teachers and staff at Stepping Stone V are loving and caring individuals. They smile when my children arrive in the morning and they have a days worth of stories for me when I pick my boys up in the evening. The teachers have worked with me through potty training and behavioral issues - individualizing Aaron's care to best benefit him - I feel confident Sean will receive this same personalized attention.\r
The Stepping Stone curriculum has more than impressed me - from baby sign language to exposing the children to music, spanish, dance, computers and karate classes. The focus remains on education - vocabulary development, counting, recognizing and writing the letters of the alphabet, creative learning centers and reading. \r
I know every day that my children are safe and well cared for - and as a working mother this makes my life less stressful - thank you!
Pros: the staff
Cons: hmmm - can't think of any
