Our daughter started attending here a few months ago and it has been exceptional! She has learned so much and shows signs of improvement in language development. The teachers(Ms. Shai, Ms. Ellen and Ms Levi) are amazing and caring. Mr.Ryan is also amazing and is very attentive and helpful with the transition period! We really appreciate the first milestones team! 💗

I can’t say enough good things about First Milestones Education! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for the children. The staff are attentive, well-trained, and clearly love what they do and it shows in how happy and comfortable the kids are. The environment is clean, safe, and thoughtfully organized, with fun and educational activities that keep the children engaged all day. My daughter absolutely loves it here and always comes home with a big smile, excited to tell me all about her day. If you’re looking for a daycare, this is definitely a place I highly recommend.

From the moment you inquire for enrollment, you know are being welcomed to the centre as family. Not only does First Milestones provide a level of excellence when it comes to caring for your children, but they somehow know how to take care of the parents too, which surpasses the call of their primary role. Our daughter absolutely loves it here and the growth we have seen in such a short while speaks volumes about the dedication practiced by the educators. If there were more stars to give, we would!! ♥️☺️

My child has been going to this daycare since he was 18 months old. Since then till date he has had a great experience with this institution. They take personal care of the kids there and the teachers are awesome. Their creativity not only makes the kids enthusiastic but even the parents enthusiastic. They constantly try to be creative and are always open to feedback. The way they engage kids too is great. My child enjoys their in house food. Thanks to the dedicated chef. Ryan and his management is good too. Overall I’ve had a great experience. Thanks to Rinat, Ryan , all the awesome teachers and the chef who makes food with all her love and dedication. Thanks

Our family couldn’t be happier with First Milestones! The staff are warm, attentive, and truly care about the well-being and development of each child. My child comes home every day excited to share what they’ve learned and talk about the fun activities they’ve done. The environment is safe, clean, and thoughtfully designed to encourage learning through play and art. Communication with the team is excellent—they keep us informed about daily activities and milestones. We’re so grateful for the nurturing and engaging experience First Milestones provides. Highly recommend to any parent looking for exceptional childcare!
