I do not have a child who attends this daycare but I did speak with the director about a potential job opportunity and got to have a look around the facility. I was only there for less than an hour and was very impressed. I am due in December and would without a doubt pick this place for childcare over any other place once my child turns 18 months. These people really do care about your kids and it shows. It really does show. They take pride in creating a safe and loving environment for your kids. The kids looked very happy and the teachers were very sweet. From someone who doesn’t even have a child enrolled, I would 100% recommend them to anybody looking for childcare!!

Mrs. Tammy truly is the best. My children have gone to 1st step for almost 3 years now. My daughter goes weekly and my boys during the summer. All of them love being there. The teachers make it fun and care about the kiddos. I recently found out that my 4 year old (just turned 4) can write her name!!! I was so surprised and amazed with what she has learned here and I am so thankful for this team. The prices have been reasonable and the only way that I have been able to work. Thank you guys🩷

My son has been going to 1st Step University for a few months now and every morning he runs in so excited and leaves with a smile on his face. Very happy to know my baby is in good hands!

If you're looking for great child care in Kingwood, this is the perfect place! The staff really stands out here. They're experienced and genuinely care about their classrooms. Each class has a warm, cozy atmosphere, and my kids absolutely love being here.
We’re big fans of supporting small businesses, and this center is so well-run. Tammy does an amazing job keeping us informed with regular communication.
The level of care the staff provides is second to none. Knowing my child is in a safe, nurturing environment gives me complete peace of mind. Highly recommend!

1st Step is the best option by a long shot in the Humble / Kingwood area. Their pre-school and toddler programs especially are well-thought out, professional and have tons of activities! The facilities are also very clean which is rare to see. You can just tell that the family running the place cares.
Tammy, Emily and the rest of the staff are especially kind and you'll know right away why kids love it there. Highly recommended!

I enrolled my daughter here for the fall break after it was recommended to me by another parent of a classmate of my daughter. She had such a great time and enjoyed her week at 1st step university. She couldn’t wait to go back everyday and even asked to stay longer! My daughter was in the school aged class and said Ms. Harley the teacher made her feel safe. The staff are kind and truly care about the children. The director at the daycare named Tammy is extremely customer service oriented and goes above and beyond to communicate on all levels. She is extremely flexible when it comes to enrolling. I had a lot of questions because I am very picky when it comes to my child’s care. She answered all of my questions without hesitation and is very transparent. I recommend this childcare center to anyone looking to find care and feel at ease while you’re at work. You aren’t just another customer at first step, it’s more like a community.

I cannot say enough good things about 1st Step University Child Care in the Kingwood and Humble area. The reasonable tuition, long-term staff, and the family owned operated atmosphere make it stand out from other daycare options. Miss Lori, who has been there for years, is an absolute gem and truly cares about each child in her care. The staff are understanding and accommodating to both the needs of the children and the parents. I have Had nothing but a positive experiences with 1st Step University Child Care and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a quality daycare option. Overall I give it a five star rating with no drawbacks to mention.

Have seen 1st Step University Childcare passing by over the years and finally had a chance to get a tour. Great facilities with caring staff and teachers that prioritize childcare. Ms Emily was super helpful.

Absolutely love this daycare! Children here are truly cared for and not just another number. We’ve checked out the large franchise daycares, but this one feels like a tight-knit community. The staff is very attentive, and I can tell they are interested in every kid they have. They care about each little one, which makes all the difference to me. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be nurtured and loved, this is it! Highly recommend to any parent looking for affordable quality care.

This daycare was the biggest blessing to me and my children. I drove 45 min one way to take my daughter here. The teachers are amazing and my daughter met lots of friends here. Tammy is incredible and she has being such a help to me and my family. I could not recommend this daycare enough. We eventually got a place in a daycare closer to home, but we really miss it here.

My family and I have been with 1st step for multiple years and I have never felt more secure when it came to childcare for my kids. Compared to other local centers, my kids are sick less often, the changing of staff is less frequent, and the price is reasonable. I am so grateful to have people looking out for my kids who truly feel like an extension of me! 10/10 !
