First Steps Childcare is a privately owned and operated child care facility dedicated to providing quality child care for children 3 months to 12 years.

We want our Childcare Centre to be the best place for children to be when they can not be with their parents.

We strive to reflect the high standards set by the Ministry of Education surpassing all requirements for our childcare facility.

Our goal is to provide children an age appropriate and supportive environment in which they can thrive, as well as a program that parents can trust.

Children are unique individuals which is why our programs and curriculum are designed to meet the developmental needs of each child, encouraging individuality, creativity and self confidence.

For over 18 years, First Steps Childcare has experienced growth, not just in terms of physical expansion, but also in terms of programs, experience and reputation.

When we opened our first location in 1997, the center served the community of Essex. a few years later we opened our second location in Tecumseh
