Not Your Average Child Care Provider

We were excited to learn all about Right Steps Child Development Centers and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the Marketing and Communications Director, Carly Cripe.

Right Steps Child Development Centers believes in putting children first and believes that every child deserves early learning and care. They are a non-profit business that is also licensed and nationally accredited. They participate in a few different programs, like a child resource network that helps other centers get licensed and provides information that helps parents choose where to send their child. They try to build infrastructure in their community by encouraging kids to read, both by offering a library, and by giving kids a new book each month. They also work with the United Way to make learning available to all income levels. They are trying to educate communities about how the early brain begins learning, focusing on ages zero through five.

“We’re on a mission to provide and advocate for quality child care and early education. We believe that all children deserve quality care that prepares them for future success.”

Building Success, Online and Off

Right Steps Child Development Centers has earned a remarkable reputation, so we were excited to hear about some of the ways they have gotten their name out and grown their business. Carly shared that they have utilized mailers, radio ads, and social media sites, like Facebook. They have also seen the many great benefits that come from online reviews. Carly told us:

“We encourage our families to leave us reviews, whether they’re positive or not. Sending your child to daycare can be a scary thing, so they encourage reviews to help other families make an informed decision.”

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Right Steps Child Development Centers has managed to. We asked if Carly could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what she had to say:

“Be consistent with your online presence. Include other businesses that are relevant, and target the right audience using SEO (search engine optimization) and paid ads.”


Congratulations to Right Steps Child Development Centers for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Carly for taking the time to speak with us!
