Brief Intro
Welcome to First Step Child Care! We provide childcare and early education to children from 6 weeks to 5 years of age in a safe, clean, friendly environment. Our educators are creative, nurturing, and dedicated to providing superior care while supporting the family and helping to prepare your child for kindergarten. We are open Monday-Friday, from 6:30 am – 6:00 pm.
Our Mission
To celebrate the uniqueness of the individual and promote the actualization of the child’s potential, we strive to provide a nurturing, stimulating environment that will enable each child to live a satisfying and productive life.
Quality Educators
We value the growth and development of the early childhood workforce both in our center and across the nation. We hire qualified, experienced teachers for our classrooms and support them to further their education and personal growth through scholarship opportunities, monthly trainings, coaching, and classes towards child care credentialing. We are committed to using the resources available to us to bring the very best to your child, so we partner with Illinois Action for Children and Start Early to support our teaching staff.
Child-Centered Curriculum
First Step uses Creative Curriculum in all of our classrooms. Creative Curriculum is a research-based, whole-child curriculum for infants, toddlers, and preschool that connects families to their children’s learning at school. It supports learning through hands-on, project-based investigations aligned to early learning standards and fosters all areas of the child’s development and learning—from socialemotional and physical skills to development in literacy, math, science, and the arts.
