We encourage all parents and their children to tour First Steps to get a feel for our child care facility and the daily routine of each classroom. We are open Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. During the tour, parents will also have the opportunity to meet and interact with the classroom teachers.
If your family decides to join First Steps, we will give you an enrollment folder which contains the following forms that need to be completed and returned prior to your child’s first day of attendance.
