Our Philosophy
Step By Step is committed to recognizing the individuality of each child enrolled in our program. We assist children in developing their own natural talents and help them discover new ones. An open and cooperative relationship between our center and your home is imperative. Together, we share the responsibility of providing a secure and nurturing environment for your child. We focus on the individual needs of your child, including emotional, cognitive, social, and physical skill development. School readiness skills are also emphasized. Your child’s early experiences with preschool child care and school settings will follow them throughout their life. Our goal is to make it a positive one!
