McMillian’s First Steps Child Care Development Ctr

I have an ongoing relationship with this daycare center. My children attended this school over 5 years ago and I was pleased then, although I had concerns about the required fundraisers that each child was responsible for. At that time, I thought was unfair, and unnecessary, but complied. Nevertheless, I enrolled my smaller children recently and I can see where the fundraisers have benefitted the school. Their academic program goes to the 5^th grade, when I took my children out of the center, they were beginning the kindergarten program, so each year since, they have increased a grade. This is a family owned business and operates like a well-​oiled machine. The daycare center is clean, my children are learning and have been there for 3 months now. My 3 year old has learned to recognize mostly all of his alphabet, write his name as well as recognize several sight words. My 2 year old knows all of her alphabet and counts to 20, and can sing several classic lullabies. The owners are on the facility daily and parents are able to speak with them randomly. They have an open door policy and are rated 5 star with the state. They recently expanded classrooms to implement a new program and construction was done over a weekend to 6 classrooms. Impressive! For the upcoming new school year they freshly painted and updated all classrooms. I love Mcmillan and am happy my children are in attendance here. The main thing that I am impressed with is that over 6 of the teachers that were employed there 5 years ago, when my older kids were there, are still there. I think that says a lot about management, especially since we live in a society where good work ethic is hard to find. I know that they will continue to expand and set a fine example within our community to offer excellent quality care and education for our youth. Thank you McMillian.
