First Steps Childcare

I had two of my children at First Steps Childcare for about 2 years each. Prior to those 4 years, I had no luck finding dependable childcare that felt trustworthy. I found Sonia through a recommendation of an acquaintance. I then called several references Sonia gave me and talked to one of her neighbors. Everybody raved about how good she is with her group of kids and how wonderful Sonia is as a person. They were all correct. One thing to make clear is that this is a home daycare. It’s not a state of the art Montessori school. What Sonia provides is a warm home, a good teaching environment, good meals and most importantly safety. The safety of your child should be above all your number one concern. From inside the house, to playing in the back yard to walking a mile as a group to a nearby park, I never once was worried about my child’s safety. The location is less than a mile from a Paramedic/​Fire station which is comforting. I would sometimes meet them at the park just to watch my kids play and have fun. Sonia is attentive, watchful, nurturing and responsible. I am thankful that I was able to find reliable, safe and affordable daycare for my children when I needed it most. I have a crazy work schedule and Sonia always worked with me to coordinate childcare.

After interviewing 4 centers and at home child care’s I instantly felt comfortable trusting Ms. Sonia with my 18 month old. He is now 5. Now both my kids are at Sonia’s First Steps. Sonia has a infant/​toddler program as well as kindergarten readiness. She teaches the kids in English and Spanish. She provides as class room type environment in her home and is always introducing new activities to build skills and learning. I could go on but it’s hard to find honest and trust worthy people to care for your child. I’d give 10 stars if I could.

I’ve been taking my little one here for the last 6 months and she LOVES it. The other kids are always excited to see her and she seems to learn something new every day.

Highly recommended childcare. I’ve been taking my kids here for almost 2 years now and they love it. They also know more Spanish than I do thanks to Sonia (the owner) taking the time to include that in her lessons. She is very sweet and her services are priceless.
