First Steps Preschool originated in Lincoln in 2006. It established itself as a highly regarded, reputable daycare and preschool in Southern Delaware.
At the time of the origination the State of Delaware was making significant changes in the child care industry in their efforts to improve the standards of care, including minimum requirements for staff qualifications, a reduction of child to staff ratios, as well as implementing additonal rules and regulations.

First Steps Preschool embraces teaching as an opportunity to inspire and empower our children. We identify and meet the children's needs based on they way that they learn, as opposed to the way adults normally teach. Children learn best by way of their senses and by "doing", much of which occurs while playing.

Worse place I've ever encountered. Didn't take my daughter for a period of time due to her being sick, paid a month in advance and she attended there maybe 1wk or so outta the month took my money and gave my spot to someone else without even letting me know. The supervisor, Kerri, is an absolute screwball. Lied to me about social services coming and seeing my daughter while she was there. I would not EVER recommend this place to a single person. They are so weird there....I mean strange
