Looking Back at How It All Started

Right Steps Education was founded by John and Regina Reydler in 2004, inspired by their experiences in Europe and a desire to provide a better learning environment for their children. After relocating to the Philadelphia area, they launched their first center to offer an enriching, nurturing, and safe environment for early childhood education. Their vision was to create a place where children feel valued and where their own children were among the first to benefit from the high-quality care and education Right Steps offers. What began as a small initiative has grown into a thriving community where children are given the tools to build strong foundations in life.

Dedication to Diversity

Our preschool is a vibrant tapestry woven with threads of diverse cultures. We believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves a nurturing environment where they feel valued and respected. Our dedicated staff fosters a sense of belonging by celebrating differences, embracing inclusivity, and encouraging open-mindedness. Through a variety of activities, from cultural festivals to global cuisine, we introduce children to the rich tapestry of the world, helping them develop empathy, understanding, and a lifelong appreciation for diversity.

Compassionate Caregivers

Caregivers form the backbone of Right Steps®. Every member of our team has one focus: the children. Their extensive training in early child development, combined with their compassion, helps create a loving environment where kids feel safe and ready to learn. Whether in play or learning, the care they provide strengthens the bond between teacher and child, helping kids flourish.

Play-Based Learning Programs

Each school program we offer is centered around a play-based philosophy, fostering curiosity and a lifelong love of learning. From infancy to kindergarten, we create spaces where children can explore, experiment, and discover the world around them. Our programs are designed to spark imagination, build confidence, and lay the foundation for future academic success.

Fostering Family Involvement

Our childcare center is more than just a place for children to learn and grow; it’s a community where families feel connected and supported. We believe that strong parent-teacher partnerships are essential for a child’s success. To foster this connection, we offer a variety of opportunities for families to be involved. From volunteering in the classroom to attending monthly parent-teacher conferences, parents are always welcome to participate in their child’s education.

Nothing but Nutritious Meals

Our philosophy is based on the understanding that what children eat directly impacts their growth, development, and overall well-being. By offering balanced snacks and meals rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, we aim to cultivate healthy eating habits that will benefit them throughout their lives. Moreover, this helps fuel their bodies and minds so they can remain active and engaged throughout the day.

Age-Appropriate Activities

Each stage of a child’s development comes with unique milestones and challenges. Our programs cater to these stages with carefully planned, age-appropriate activities. We ensure that every child, from infants to pre-kindergarten, participates in activities that promote their growth at their pace. Through structured play, creative expression, and problem-solving exercises, children build essential skills that will carry them through their early years and into elementary school and beyond with confidence.

Our Vision for the Future

As we look ahead to the future, we remain dedicated to continuously improving our early learning programs. The world of education is constantly evolving, and so are we. Right Steps® is committed to embracing new approaches and innovative techniques in early childhood education while maintaining the values that have always defined us.

Our focus will remain on creating an environment where children feel safe, supported, and inspired. As we move into the next decade, we plan to expand our programs, enhance our facilities, and deepen our relationships with the families we serve. We will continue to prioritize child development, ensuring that each child receives the individualized attention and care they deserve.

Our vision for the future also includes strengthening our community ties, offering more resources for parents, and providing even more opportunities for children to learn and grow in a stimulating environment. As always, our commitment to high-quality early childhood education will guide every step we take.
