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!
