First Step Preschool is licensed by the state of New Jersey and provides caring and enriching education to kids from two-and-a-half to five years old. The center is located in the Franklin Lakes Methodist Church, but not affiliated with the church. They offer morning and afternoon programs with small class sizes for individual attention to each student, and many of their early-childhood and Montessori-trained teachers have been with them since they opened 15 years ago. PM Kindergarten enrichment is also available.
Dedicated to going "green" and using safe and environmentally-friendly products in the classrooms, First Step Preschool provides a well-rounded curriculum. They also have a nut-free policy to protect children with allergies. The center gives back to the community with regular food and clothing drives.
The preschool is currently enrolling for September 2012. Call or visit the website for more information.
