First Steps Academy You can teach a child a lesson for a day but if you teach them to learn by creating curiosity, they continue the learning process as long as they live.

At First Steps Academy, being a Parent Aware Rated program is more than just a rating, it is an important part of our commitment to providing the highest quality care, meaningful early learning experiences, and educational opportunities for the children and families in our community.

We are excited to share an opportunity for our families to make an even greater impact by joining the Parent Aware Advisory Committee!

This committee brings together parents, childcare providers, and early childhood professionals from across Minnesota to share experiences, identify challenges, and help guide improvements to Minnesota’s childcare quality system. Your voice matters, and your perspective as a First Steps family can help shape the future of early childhood education for families throughout our state.

If you are passionate about early childhood education and want to help strengthen the quality of care available to Minnesota’s children, we encourage you to consider participating!

Thank you for being part of the First Steps family and for helping us continue to grow, improve, and provide the best possible foundation for our youngest learners. Together, we can make a difference!

🎶💃 ZOOM TO THE MUSIC! 🕺🎵

Our Preschool and Pre-K classrooms at our Big Steps Campus had an absolute BLAST yesterday with Zoom to the Music!

Our classrooms were filled with laughter, smiles, dancing, and LOTS of energy as our kiddos jumped, wiggled, stretched, and grooved to the beat!

Not only did everyone have SO much fun, but they were also building important skills like coordination, listening, following directions, and gross motor development; all while making wonderful memories with their friends! ❤️

We love bringing fun, interactive experiences like this into our classrooms and watching our little learners shine!

Thank you, Zoom to the Music, for getting our kiddos up, moving, and having such an amazing time!

🎃 Our Door Voting Contest Is Underway! 🎃

The competition is in full swing, and we can’t wait to see which classroom door is voted BEST! Be sure to cast your vote by the end of the month!

Planning to attend our Halloween event on October 27th? You can vote then, too! We encourage families to visit all three First Steps locations that evening to admire everyone’s creativity and cast a vote for your favorite door at each location.

One vote per person! That means if you’re a family of five, you get FIVE votes! Bring the whole family, explore all the spooky, creative designs, and help your favorite doors win!
