Stepping Stone School at McNeil/Jollyville is a premier private early education center, much more than a daycare. The school provides a nurturing, educational environment where children visibly learn and develop new skills daily. The facility is welcoming, clean, and secure with key code entry and video surveillance. Though the building is older, it is well-maintained, spacious, and features a gorgeous outdoor play space separated by age groups. The team is consistently described as amazing, outstanding, and a cut above other centers. Staff members are enthusiastic, kind, warm, and attentive, with many long-time teachers demonstrating genuine love and care for each child. Management is very responsive to family needs. The school offers a top-tier program with fun activities including summer swim days, visiting instructors for dance and sports, and a visiting musician. Children enjoy chef-prepared, quality meals and snacks. Parents appreciate the great app for daily updates and photos. The community is highly recommended, with many families expressing deep gratitude for the positive, trusting, and joyful experience.
We absolutely LOVE stepping stone! Our little one has been there since she was three months and I cannot begin to explain how much she enjoys it. From the front staff, to her wonderful teachers, everyone that works there is always so sweet and welcoming. Cannot imagine a better place!

All three of my daughters have gone to Stepping Stone off McNeil. I’ve used them for the last 12 years. I love the teachers and how accommodating, sweet and kind they are. I’d recommend this school to anyone who’s in the area!

We’ve trusted Ms. Donna and her team of teachers at Stepping Stone McNeil for years. My kids have always loved coming here.
