Stepping Stones Academy

My daughter has been attending Stepping Stones since the age of 4 months and she has received much caring and love from all of the teachers. We were lucky to get in because there is a waiting list but a spot opened up and we decided to go for it. She took about 2 weeks to transition from being with mom all day to a full day at daycare but the teachers had good advice and tips to help her adjust and enjoy her day there. The teachers in the infant room, including Ms. Christie, Ms. Renee, Ms. Lei, Ms. Shannon and Ms. Daneen were all very caring and compassionate and brought joy to my daughter as evident in her smiling and recognizing them when she sees her old teachers. Her current teachers in the Toddler 2 level are also just as caring and she is very happy with Ms. Cheryl, Ms. T, Ms. Tamika, Ms. Keri, Ms. Stacia and Ms. Kiesha, Also, the director, Ms. Kieran is very caring and...

Our son attending Stepping Stones Academy has been the best experience for our family. He started attending when he was 7 months old. His infant room teachers are the most caring and nurturing people you could hope for. They made him feel safe and secure which meant he was able to focus on all the fun sensory activities they planned and socializing with the other babies. They were so good about communicating with us about how our sons day was. I was nervous when the time came transition him to the 1-year-old room and the staff at Stepping Stones helped us through that transition at a pace we were comfortable with. His teachers in the toddler class are amazing! He talks about them a lot when he is at home. They plan amazing sensory activities everyday and give you a full report, with pictures, of what went on during the day. Finally, the administrative staff is fantastic. The director,...

My son just loved going to school at Stepping Stones.I have nothing but good things to say about all aspects of the school.

We love stepping stones academy because our son loves it. He has a great time everyday and comes home from school learning so many new things! The teachers and staff are very informative and keep you up to date with everything your child is doing and learning. I plan to keep my child here until grade school, there’s no place better.

I highly recommend Waipahu steppingstones. My daughter who started at 5 months old, they helped us through the whole beginning process on getting us into their Academy and welcomed us with much Aloha and passion in taking care of your child. The caregivers/ teachers were always doing activities with the children, and the area was always clean, uncluttered where a child couldn’t get hurt. All caregivers/teachers had a strong passion with working with my child and she always came in happy to be there to see them. They always kept in communication with me and sent me pictures of my daughter through the day. I very much felt like it was my daughters other family (Ohana) with the amount of love that was given to her. They not only do activities for this kids but they do family activities as well. I very much trust and appreciate stepping stones and recommend them with the highest.

Our daughter started at Stepping Stones Academy - Honolulu over a year ago and has been enjoying it very much. She likes her teachers in both classrooms and has made some good friends. The caring and loving staff here work hard together to provide a nurturing and encouraging environment for the children with well-designed, age-appropriate activities and effective guidance. We really appreciate the school's efforts in fostering children's socio-emotional development and in communicating with the parents effectively and efficiently. Thank you all very much!

We love Stepping Stones Academy because the teachers really care about the children. My 3 years old son has bad allergies but he's never had any problems at school. All the teachers try their best for their class. They provide many activies and various programs. My son has learned many new things almost everyday. Stepping Stones also takes many photos and emails daily on how much they eat and sleep which I really love. I highly recommend Stepping Stones Academy.

My two sons have both attended SSA. My oldest graduated with Ms. Arlene and Ms. Torey. He had such a great time and was really prepared academically when he went to Kindergarten. The weekly homework helped us reinforce what he was learning during the day. It was challenging enough but not overwhelming for him. Ms. Arlene and Ms. Torey were so nurturing and really supported him with his love for dinosaurs and Godzilla (not the usual for kids his age).

My younger son started with Ms. V in the Preschool class and is currently with Ms. Anca in Jr. Kindergarten. I've seen both my sons grow so much because of the loving environment all their teachers have provided. I'm so appreciative of how Ms. Anca takes the time to talk with us to let us know how our son is doing and what he's learning. She'll send us pictures or videos when our son does something great and it really...
