Nurturing the Whole Child: More Than Just Academics
At Stepping Stones Academy, we believe in nurturing the whole child – physically, emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually. That’s why we’ve chosen the renowned Frog Street curriculum, a research-based program that fosters a love of learning, encourages exploration, and empowers children to reach their full potential.
Active Learning, Every Day: Inspiring Curiosity & Confidence
At Stepping Stones Academy, we believe in the power of hands-on learning. Our dynamic daily schedule includes engaging activities like circle time for building social skills, 60 minutes of gross motor play to keep bodies active, and daily STEM projects to spark curiosity. We also nurture a love for reading, encourage creativity through art, and foster self-expression with music. Older children even start their day with positive affirmations, setting the tone for a confident and joyful learning experience. Your child will be actively engaged and excited to learn every day at Stepping Stones!
Age-Specific Programs Designed for Growth
Our infant program is designed to provide a nurturing and secure environment where your little one’s earliest milestones are celebrated. We focus on building strong attachments and fostering social-emotional development through gentle play, sensory exploration, singing, reading, and responsive caregiving. With a low teacher-to-child ratio of 1:4, your infant receives personalized attention and care, ensuring their individual needs are met every step of the way.
As your child transitions into toddlerhood, they’re bursting with energy and curiosity. Our toddler program encourages exploration, independence, and language development through play-based learning. Toddlers engage in sensory play, explore interactive stations, participate in circle time, enjoy music and movement, and have ample opportunities for outdoor play. With a 1:5 teacher-to-child ratio, we provide a safe and supportive environment for your toddler to learn and grow at their own pace.
In our preschool program, we lay the groundwork for kindergarten readiness through a balanced approach that combines play-based learning with structured activities. We foster early literacy, math, science, and social-emotional skills through engaging activities such as circle time, story time, hands-on science experiments, art projects, dramatic play, music and movement, and outdoor exploration. Our 1:10 teacher-to-child ratio ensures each child receives both group interaction and individual guidance.
Our Pre-K program is designed to give your child a strong foundation for kindergarten success. We focus on building essential skills in literacy, math, social-emotional development, and critical thinking. Children engage in activities such as letter recognition, number skills, writing practice, science exploration, creative arts, and social-emotional learning. With a 1:10 teacher-to-child ratio, we create an optimal environment for focused learning and collaborative experiences.
Individualized Attention, Optimal Growth: Nurturing Each Child at Their Own Pace
At Stepping Stones Academy, we understand that every child develops at their own unique pace. That’s why we maintain low child-to-teacher ratios, ensuring that each child receives the individualized attention and support they need to thrive. From our 1:4 ratio for infants to 1:5 for toddlers and 1:10 for preschoolers, your child will always have a caring adult close by to guide, encourage, and celebrate their milestones. We adapt our programs and activities to meet the specific developmental needs of each age group, fostering a love of learning and a sense of accomplishment in every child.
Hear What Parents Have To Say...
My 2 year old and 4 month old both currently go here and I absolutely love their teachers. They are both great about updating the app, which is what I really appreciate. I am a super paranoid mom, and with how good they are about the app, and how good they are as a teachers, it puts me at peace during the day. I absolutely love Tiffany- one of the directors. She is so easy to talk to and has answered many of my obnoxious questions without ever acting annoyed with me. I love stepping stones academy!!!!
My daughter has been here for a year and I refer stepping stones to anyone who's looking for a good quality daycare. Tiffany has always put the children first and you can tell she runs this daycare with love. I feel comfortable leaving my daughter in the care of her staff whom are always respectful and committed to the care of your child. My daughter runs into daycare every morning and is always smiling when I come to get her.
Tiffany and her staff are amazing!!! My kids loving going here! Great communication between staff and parents, consistent updates/pictures with my babies during the day, makes my heart so happy!! They treat everyone like family! I know my kids are happy and safe everyday!!
My daughter attends this daycare the staff is phenomenal ms Tiffany is the best director and she’s caring and loves the kids like her own ! I recommend for any first time parents who are considering daycare and are skeptical about it ! They are awesome !
Stepping Stones Academy is great!! My son loves all the teachers and I could not be more happier knowing they are teaching my son the education he needs!! He has blossomed into a bright 4 year old thanks to the wonderful staff at Stepping Stones Academy!!
