“All three of my children attended this kindergarten in turns. A very warm welcome and a friendly attitude towards all the children was immediately felt, and I wasn’t worried that my son would feel uncomfortable there. The winter and summer programs, “Green School” (where depending on the season, children spend time skiing or sledding in the mountains, or taking walks along eco-routes on Vitosha), additional classes in drawing, music, dance, and yoga - are a wonderful addition to the learning process.
Several years later, my two younger children also went to this kindergarten and spent several wonderful years there.
I would especially like to mention the excellent attitude of the educators and staff in general towards the children.
It is also worth noting that geographically the kindergarten is located on a hill in Simeonovo, and there is no such thing as Sofia’s smog, although in winter you can feel the smoke from wood heating in neighboring houses. Despite the fact that my sons have grown up and go to school, they eagerly await our visits and are joyfully welcomed at the kindergarten when we come to visit.Thank you very much, Beni for everything you did for my kids 🙂”

“We’re an English family and after moving to Bulgaria from Gibraltar with a 4 year old and an 8 week old, we needed somewhere safe for our little girl with staff that loved children. A Greek family told us about Littlesteps and from the moment I called and spoke to the manager, Albena (Benny), I knew this had promise.

The staff were caring and my daughter got really lucky with her teacher, Bori. Bori thought outside the box and the kids in that class were happy and challenged.
The other staff Littlesteps employs always seem to be spot on. The fundamental thing they all have in common is the love of the children and the ambition for the children, they want them to thrive.
The children have a timetable and lunch is staggered between the groups each day, so it’s a great routine for them. The food is varied and is usually three courses!
When my youngest was almost three, she started at Littlesteps and stayed the whole time, until she left for pre school, again with lovely teachers, a good kindergarten education and great memories of ski school, summer day trips, swimming, parties etc.
Both girls learnt English phonics, using the system and books they used in England at that time. When they started their next schools they were ready with the required skills.
I think for us as parents, knowing we were leaving our precious daughters with teachers that were fair, caring and challenging, gave us peace of mind.”
“When running a business for many years, you learn to partner with people you can trust and people who deliver on their promises. When it comes to the early stages of educating our young offspring, as parents we also look for people we can trust, with reputations for providing a great first step in the long road of education. These first small steps are vital in our children's overall development and I, like many others have shared the joy,the pleasure and the rewards of entrusting our small ones in the capable andloving arms of Little Steps.
The longevity of Little Steps shows that professionalism in the early stages of education and the love and care that goes with it, are still prized as highly now as it was when Little Steps started on its journey all those years ago.”
