This place is a gem. The teachers are warm, sweet and organized. They redirect rather than punish and have a great understanding of childhood development. The owners are professional, friendly and go out of their way to make sure our questions are answered. They communicate quickly. I love the app they use that keeps me informed about what my child did, what they ate, when they used the bathroom, napped, etc. The classrooms are a good size. The backyard has a small playground perfect for young kids and they bring in extra curricular teachers like for music, sports, etc. But the best indicator to me is that my 3 year old LOVES going there and actually cries when she CAN’T go. As a parent, that is the best feeling

Our 11 year old attended First Stop Kids from Nursery until Pre-K, and she was fulled prepared for Kindergarten. Our now 5 1/2 year-old was at First Stop Kids from two months old until it was time for Kindergarten. I cannot say enough good things about Scott and his staff. It feels like a family, the children learn, they play, and they go outside often. The daycare has a very natural approach, and we liked that they balanced play with learning. It was just perfect for what we needed. They were open 7-7, and this was a huge help as our work hours changed here and there. Thank you guys. We miss everyone at First Stop Kids!

The convenience of First Stop Kids daycare being right across street from the Bellmore train station was the first thing that drew us to it. But upon meeting the amazing and committed owner, Scott, and seeing the care and dedication of staff, we were sold. Our daughter has been at FSK for 2+ years now and we couldn't be happier. The facility was recently renovated inside and out and is clean and bright. Our daughter is happy to go in the morning and happy when she leaves. The staff plan many fun things to do on rainy days and local field trips to keep things interesting. Parades, mini carnivals, and graduations are adorable. The few issues that arose have been immediately and compassionately handled. Can't ask for more!

We are so happy with the care, love and education our sons receive at First Stop Kids. The boys look forward to going to school and we feel confident that they're being well taken care of. We receive updates and photos throughout the day on their app, which are a nice reminder of how much fun the kids are having throughout the day!

My daughter started there at 3 months and has loved everyday. She has really excelled there! The owner and staff are friendly. It’s also nice to have a place with great parents and quarterly “moms night out”.

Our daughter has not yet started their program, however my wife (school teacher) & I visited all of the local facilities, we found Scott & the staff here to be extraordinarily friendly & helpful! Their building, toys, & bathrooms where kept clean & well maintained. My biggest concern with toddler childcare is the air quality in the rooms (for obvious reasons), the toddler room felt fresh/clean & was not stuffy. We are excited & comfortable with our daughter starting her program here.
