My wife and I couldn't be happier with SSCC. We visited multiple daycares in the Kent Island area when we were looking to enroll our daughter, and of all the options we saw, this was by far the best choice for us. Great location and great staff that provides a really fun experience for the kid's day in and day out. They provide breakfast which makes the start of the day so much easier, and they have different activities daily to keep the kids entertained and learning. Can't say enough good things about it!
"We are so very pleased with the teachers and staff at Stepping Stones Children's Center from the moment we had our walk through tour! I wanted to give a huge thank you to Mrs.Leslie who goes above and beyond to make sure that my 3 year old adjusts well, and is comfortable with this big transition into childcare. Also, a huge thank you to Ms.Haley and the Ducks classroom teachers, for the daily updates for my 1.5 year old, Lane. If I leave, and he's upset... they always reassure me with a photo/message that he is OK! I feel like I am family there! I know wihtout a double, that my children are in the BEST care. For a any mom or dad, that is very reassuring! "

"We met with the new owners of Stepping Stones Children's Center, who gave us a tour of their lovely facility over the weekend. I was so impressed with the Center. It is a warm and welcoming facility. All of the rooms were large, colorful, and very organized."
Parent
"These ladies and gentlemen are some of the best in the early childhood education field. They care and love these children as if they were their own and pay close attention for those little ones that may need just a bit more love each day. The experience, knowledge, and LOVE that comes along with these teachers is nothing shy of AMAZING and I guarantee that you will find no other atmosphere comparable to Stepping Stone Children's Center."
