EXCELLENT Based on 13 reviews F Cruz2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I want to sincerely thank the entire team at this wonderful Home Day Care. They not only provided a safe, loving, and enriching environment for my child, but also showed great responsibility at all times. The bilingual program has been amazing for his development, and seeing him express himself in both languages has been truly special for us. Thanks to their dedication, the transition to school has been very smooth. Even his new school teachers have told us that it’s clear he attended an excellent daycare because of how well-prepared he is. We are truly grateful and will always carry you in our hearts! A special thanks to Maya, who is a great leader and truly makes a difference. Meghan Manilla2024-10-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Firsteps has been a great experience for us over the years. Both of my kids attended from when they were babies. The staff is absolutely wonderful and they take great care of the kids. I also love that the daycare is bi-lingual as they speak both Spanish and English to the kids. Since we have been at the daycare (6+ years between the two kids), it’s been mostly the same staff which gives it a very family feel. My Firsteps comes highly recommended from me! John C2024-09-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so fortunate to have had Maya and her incredible team at My Firsteps be our daycare provider for our son over the past few years. They are warm and inviting, caring and supportive. This daycare encourages healthy physical development, a social dynamic and cognitive growth. All of the staff will truly be missed. We highly recommend My Firsteps! Sophie Grimes2024-08-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so grateful to the committed staff at my Firsteps for caring for our son. They built nurturing relationships with all the kiddos and my son was well loved (and well-fed, too!) He's now a preschooler and thanks to his experience at My Firsteps he walked right into the brand new school with complete confidence on his very first day. We love you so much, Maya, Mona, Judy and Cindy!! Holly Zann2024-08-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Firsteps is a wonderful leaning environment and a perfect place for kids until they are 4 years old and ready for preschool. Both my daughter and son went there. They treat all the kids like family. They also have creative lessons about letters, numbers, all while having lots of play based learning. Another bonus is the daycare is bilingual (Spanish) and they serve the kids breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Frances Knapp2024-08-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our first child has been there ever since he was 3 months old and he is new joining CPS pre-k this Fall and it new baby has started there. They are like family. We love it! Aaron Page2024-08-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our daughter started at My Firsteps when she was three months old and we cannot say enough good things about our experience. First, they are very creative with finding fun and unique ways to engage the kids. We look forward to the daily picture and have been so happy to see the wide variety of theme weeks and play activities. Also, we know how much our daughter is learning, as she comes home saying please, thank you, knowing songs, colors, numbers, and is constantly picking up new words in English and Spanish! She’s even picked up some sign language! We can also tell how loving and caring they are towards all of the kids. Maya and the staff take the time to share details with us about our daughter so that we know about her day and that they are truly looking out for her growth and development. It’s also great that we’ve been with them for about two years and the same teachers have been there throughout that time. A lot of the reviews have mentioned that kids thrive at My Firsteps, and we couldn’t agree more! Jessica Fisch2024-08-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our son has been at My Firsteps since he was 10 months old and is about to “graduate.” There are no words to describe the peace of mind that comes from dropping off your kid every morning with people that love him and give him excellent care. He has learned so much, grown so much, and had so much fun. We will miss our time (and the shows and parties) dearly! Marlise Jean-Pierre2024-08-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m so thankful for my first steps for taking amazing care of my daughter. As a first time mom, I was nervous when trying to decide on the right daycare setting. I remember the day we dropped off my daughter and Maya said “she’ll be just fine.” And not only was she fine but she thrived! They really cared for her. My daughter was always very happy. I also liked that my daughter had the same caregivers the whole time. We got to know all the families at the daycare and would often get together, which was nice for creating a community. If we hadn’t moved, our second kid would be at my first steps! Thank you Maya! Charles Wright2024-08-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We sent our daughter to My FirstSteps during COVID and cannot say enough good things about it! Great parent community as well. Our daughter thrived. Hard to get a spot but, if you can, it’s a great daycare.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
