My son spent almost one and half years here before our moving out of state. This school feels like FAMILY. Everyday when I was dropping off and picking up my son, every teacher would greet me with smiles, and all of them can actually name all the kids, even for those who are not in their classes, which is amazing. Ms Jan and Ms Janica definitely have built a perfect team. My son really loves his teachers Ms Tina and Ms Jamica, especially Miss Jamica, he misses her very much. If you are sending you little ones to a daycare in Brushy Creek, this is the place to go.

We want to thank Ms. Jan and Ms. Lamis for experiences our child has had at Stepping Stone Cat Hollow. We particularly appreciate them taking on the challenge to learn how to closely manage our child’s Type 1 Diabetes while in school without hesitation but also closely communicate and keep us up to date.We felt welcomed from the get go and we and our child felt very safe in their care! Our family will always be grateful to the incredible team at Stepping Stone for their warmth, dedication and passion in not only teaching but also helping them emotionally and socially!

Cannot speak highly enough of Jan and her team at Stepping Stone Cat Hollow! All go above and beyond to establish lasting relationships with students and families and you can really tell that they care about what they do! We've loved every minute of the 3 years we've been enrolled!

I have been working at SS Cat Hollow for over 30 years. From the admin to teachers to families I have had the most positive experiences life could offer. I have stayed and made a commitment to Stepping Stone as they have been committed to their employees.

The Stepping stone school at Cat Hollow is very clean and safe. The staff are amazing! Very friendly, kind, caring, and professional. Ms. Jan, Ms. Lamis, and Ms. Veshaly are the best! They are focused and dedicated to helping kids grow both academically and emotionally by being positive, caring yet strict, and very enthusiastic.

The Stepping Stone school aty Cat Hollow is truly exceptional. The care and attention received there by the staff is noteworthy. I believe the the care the students receive there is the direct responsibility of Jan Brothers. I have never met a more dedicated staff member and in her case Manager of the facility. Without her I do not feel the facility would be the same.

I have found Stepping Stone Cathallow, to be one of the best Stepping Stones in the franchise. The teachers are very detailed oriented, and extremely accommodating with my son’s needs. We have a different home language to English, and he took forever to speak, and now he is bilingual! And my favourite thing he says when I pick him up, is that “I had a good day Mom”

My daughter enrolled here when she was 18 months old. I had toured 6 other childcare centers before visiting Stepping Stone School Cat Hollow. Having been in the childcare field for 16+ years, I knew what I was looking for and refused to settle for less for my little girl. When we arrived, we were greeted by the director, Jan. After a brief introduction she brought us to Ms. Katy's 2 year old room(I requested that my daughter be in an older room due to her language development being a little more advanced then most children at 18 months old). Ms. Katy amazing. There are no words to describe the positive vibes and warm feels I felt instantly. Needless to say, we enrolled our daughter immediately. The love and amazement we felt with Ms. Katy never stopped growing. She always had a personalized message for us to read about our daughters day - she had "Donut Fridays" and always had a snack to offer a child having a rough drop off. My daughter came home daily telling me about everything Ms. Katy did. Thank you Stepping Stone School!

Stepping Stone's staff is great; the teachers care about the kids and management does as well. Daycare is hard work, but you can tell they genuinely love being with the kids as they grow. We found Stepping Stone when our previous daycare shutdown and was sold during the pandemic. We are so happy we found a reliable and friendly place to take care of our kids! Thank you Stepping Stone!!

This was our little girls first time in childcare after being at home for the first year and we couldn't be more thankful for the experience. We have now moved her to a school that is closer to home but saying good bye to stepping stone and her teachers was SO hard - which speaks greatly for how great the school and staff was to our family. Our little one learned so much in her short time there and we are so thankful to Jann, Jennica and her teachers that went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, safe and loved. Would recommend Cat Hollow without hesitation to anyone.

Lost my job in the beginning of March due to COVID19, and I had stupidly paid for the whole month instead of bimonthly. My daughter stopped attending at the beginning of March as a result.I asked for a partial refund numerous times and was told they would get back to me - they never did. They didn't even care we were out of an income due to the virus and just took money they didn't earn. If only I'd opted for bimonthly - we were in horrible waters when I was out work!!As for the quality of care, there were a few issues (diaper rashes, cream put in sensitive regions, picked her up with dirty diapers multiple times, the workers sprayed chemicals in the air while the babies spun in circles and played in it [one time that I know of, I was watching in on the watchmegrow app during my lunch break --- I called and they said they don't usually do that]). They don't pay attention to the littles enough - one was constantly hitting and kicking others, and even after I called, they still failed to heed and address it the following days.Hands down don't recommend, in the end it was a blessing. They got to keep 650 bux, but I started working again recently and will never go back (I used the Cat Hollow location) and my daughter has better care.

Stepping Stone in Cat Hollow has been amazing with our daughter, and we trust them completely. The entire staff is always welcoming and happy to be there, and our daughter loves them. Communication with parents is great, the facility is very nice, and we've been very impressed this far. Highly recommended!

We transferred our son to this location about 2 months ago when we moved to Brushy Creek and we received such a warm welcome from Jan and the teachers at Stepping Stone Cat Hollow. They really made an effort to help our son adjust as quickly as possible. Within a week he was all smiles when we dropped him off. All the teachers seem to really get to know the kids very well. Whenever I walk in I feel like a different staff member will comment about how my son did something more than usual today or was even more smiley than usual. It makes me feel like they all take the time to get to know each kid's personality and they are really invested in them. Also, Stepping Stone offers some of the best hours around (open 6:30am to 6:15pm), which is really important on days that my husband and I have to work late.

We switched to the round rock location when we moved and honestly it was the best decision ever! Jan, Jenica, and all of the staff make you feel welcome and part of the family as soon as you walk through the door. The love they show the kids is immense and it shows in how incredibly happy my daughter is each and every day. I would not consider sending my daughter anywhere else!
