Our curriculum is built on the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education and is integrated with our Learning Beyond Curriculum philosophy. This approach emphasizes child-led exploration, collaborative learning, and the development of multiple intelligences. By allowing children to guide their own learning based on their interests, we create a stimulating environment that nurtures curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
The Reggio Emilia approach recognizes that children are natural learners and encourages them to explore, discover, and ask questions about the world around them. By following their interests and ideas, children become more engaged and motivated to learn. This approach also values the importance of collaboration, communication, and documentation in a child’s learning journey.
We understand that every child is unique, and we strive to cater to different learning styles through various teaching methods. Whether your child learns best through storytelling, visual aids, hands-on activities, or group collaboration, our diverse curriculum allows for individualized learning experiences. “No child left behind” is a core principle of our curriculum, and we are committed to helping each child reach their full potential.
Depending on the child’s age and developmental level, parents can expect to see a mix of free play, guided learning activities, outdoor playtime, and group interactions. Children will also have opportunities for creative expression through art and music. Our curriculum is designed to be stimulating, engaging, and fun-filled for young children.
We use ongoing observation and documentation of a child’s work and play to track their progress. Our teachers closely observe children as they engage in activities, take note of their interests, and record significant moments through photographs, videos, and written notes. We maintain constant and open communication with parents to discuss their child’s progress and share any concerns or milestones.

The teachers are amazing – always kind and attentive. Jane comes home every day with a smile. The kindergarten offers a lot of engaging activities that help the kids learn and have fun. First Step is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!😊Posted on Salikia TrahanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The Directors, Megan and Elyce are a blessing You can genuinely see that they care and have the best interest of all the kids. The staff is amazing and so attentive, and my girls have learned so much. Very long story short best place you can bring your kids 😁Posted on Alexandria JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love this center! Tour and you will understand why. I didn't want to leave a review so that I could keep it to myself on how great the center is but every parent deserves a caring environment where they feel their child is loved and cared for like they're at home. First Steps has the best communication, tidiest classrooms, and an engaging environment with well-trained staff. These are a few of the reasons I bring my baby here with no worries.Posted on angelica gomezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
