Testimonials

“Our two sons have gone to Home Day Cares since birth, so when we decided to explore the option of a center, we were a little hesitant. So, we asked around and were given the names of many places and decided to start touring them. Before we would go on a tour, I utilized the State of Delaware's website to check out the noncompliance and standards/regulations complaint reports on each place. I don’t know why we even wasted our time even going to some places after seeing some of the reports on the state's site. Funsteps was highly recommended and I was very pleased with the findings on the state's site. Once we toured Funsteps and met the staff, we knew we found our new daycare. Our youngest attends the 2 Year Old Pre-School Prep room full time and our oldest attended Summer Camp at Funsteps this summer. It's obvious the owners, Ms. Kim and Mr. Brian, have pride in and passion for their work, their staff and the children at Funsteps. The staff has the same enthusiasm, warmth and love which makes Funsteps such a pleasant environment. My children adore their teachers, and we feel very comfortable and happy knowing they are with them each day. They have so much fun there and learn so much at the same time. We are so very glad we decided to make Funsteps our boys' "home away from home." Thank you Funsteps!”

“When looking for a daycare for my son I wanted to find a place where the teachers were nurturing and respected the individual needs of my child. After talking with the teachers at Funsteps it was clear to me that they wanted to work with me to help my son gain the skills that he needed to grow and learn. As a teacher, it was important to me that he was being exposed to developmentally age approriate activities. The teachers lesson plans included activities that were engaging and hands-on. Funsteps provided a great learning environment for my child.”

I can't begin to say enough good things regarding the owners and staff at the center. We greatly appreciate all they have done for/with us contributing to the growth of our son and ours as parents!"

"My son loves to go to daycare! Everyone is very friendly and I'm confident that he is well cared for while my husband and I are working. He is learning so much and developing ahead of schedule with his milestones and I'm certain it is because of the attention he receives there."

“Our son was born 10 weeks premature, was in the hospital for two months, and was not medically cleared to attend daycare until he was 6 months of age. During the time we waited for our son to come home, we were actively and judiciously looking for the right daycare for him. We wanted a daycare with low staff to child ratios and teachers that would be as loving and nurturing as we were at home. We also looked for providers that were cost effective. No other daycare that we visited with or spoke with matched the quality and level of personal care we have experienced at Funsteps. They have been very attentive and accommodating to our son’s needs, as well as our own. We know every day that our son is safe and well-looked after by a group of professionals we now consider friends. Our son is now two years old, and we are still very happy with our decision to entrust his care to Funsteps.”

Ms. Kim & Mr. Brian, the owners, are wonderful too. You can come to them anytime about anything. It leaves us with a comfortable, reassuring feeling each day that our children are happy and being well cared for.”

“My husband and I have been parents at Funsteps since March 2011 when we enrolled our son in their infant program. We could never imagine finding a better daycare! Our son is usually in care 8-9 hours a day, so naturally we take great interest in who’s caring for him in our absence. We are happy to say we have picked a winner with Funsteps! The staff is friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and easy to work with on a daily basis. Even the teachers and staff that do not provide direct care for our son know him by name and always have kind things to say. I feel confident leaving my son at Funsteps each day as I know he’ll receive the love, attention and necessary care to keep him happy and healthy. The teachers make parents feel very comfortable with daily updates and talking directly to us about any changes or progress they discover. In the past year, I have also encouraged my sister and cousin to consider Funsteps for their children. They both have since enrolled and have nothing but positives to communicate. I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful place and will certainly continue to recommend Funsteps to anyone who may be considering childcare.”

“We love Funsteps for our son! He quickly formed a strong bond with his teacher and we did too. She potty trained him which was a huge help for us as well. We simply love her! When it was time for him to transition to the next class, he was sad, but his new teacher made the transition easy, and he now loves her too! It is comforting and a relief to not have to worry about our son’s care, happiness and education as we work. We know he is well taken care of and comes home happy every day. On weekends he even wakes up and asks us to take him to school!!! He definitely looks forward to each day at Funsteps. We can’t thank Funsteps enough for all they do for our son and our peace of mind!”

“My daughter has attended Funsteps since she was 6 weeks old. She is now 5, and she loves Funsteps, especially her teacher who she talks about all of the time. The owners are wonderful and very involved with the center. They have wonderful programs for the children and I would never consider going anywhere else.”

"Our daughter has attended Funsteps since she was 3 months old. She is now 4 years old, and we cannot say enough good things about Funsteps. The owners and teachers are nurturing and show true care for the students. Individual attention is given to the students, along with group play and interaction. We have been told by her pediatrician that her letter and number recognition and her writing skills are above what is average for her age. We attribute that to the practice and encouragement that she receives at Funsteps. We fully recommend Funsteps to anyone for daycare and preschool needs!"
