Teachers are fantastic, the programming is really great. I feel they know my child on a very personal level and help build on strengths while also addressing weaknesses. They very much adhere to the Montessori belief that a child should be independent and self-sufficient. Both my children gained not only knowledge, but life skills, independence and confidence as a result of SBS - Plymouth.

The staff are what make the environment, with enthusiastic and dedicated teachers. We have seen significant knowledge and social growth in both our children who attend / attended step by step. Our oldest was well prepared for kindergarten based on Ms Amber’s leadership and Ms Francina’s structured environment is a perfect fit for our toddler. The school has also made community building within the network of families more of a priority lately which has been very much appreciated!

My preschooler absolutely loves going to his new school. His first day, drop off was terrible due to his prior experiences of other centers. When I picked him up from daycare that first day, he told me how much fun he had and about his “nice teachers”. He says his teachers aren’t angry, and his room isn’t dirty like his old school. Every day since, he walks right into the center and his classroom without any issues. I’m never walking into chaos at drop off or pick up, it’s very nice seeing the teachers having calm control over their classrooms. Beyond thankful to have my kids in a place where I know they’re being loved and cared for!
