About Us
In 2006, Stepping Stones pioneered a fresh approach to excellent childcare and early education where the educators, the environment and the programs are exactly what young children need to learn, grow and thrive.
Today, Stepping Stones Early Learning Center continues to lead the way, constantly searching for new ways to improve our curriculum, enrichment classes and daily experiences for all children in our care. As part of our mission and philosophy, we strive to support, encourage and nurture a passion for life-long learning.

Why Stepping Stones?
Unique All-Inclusive Approach
Enriching the early education experience
Stepping Stones believes all children should have the opportunity to participate in enrichment classes and activities. By adopting an all-inclusive approach to childcare programming, programs such as Learning About Nutrition through Activities (LANA), Character Education, Spanish, Sign Language, Yoga and Music are included at no extra charge. For added convenience and value we also provide diapers, wipes, formula, baby food and all meals/snacks in our tuition rates. We have even taken the nutritional value of infant purees into consideration, which are freshly prepared by our on-site chef.
Highly Qualified Teachers
Ensuring creative and energetic education professionals
Parents don’t let just anyone take care of their kids, and neither do we. We set a high bar for our teachers and require them to stay up to date on curriculum and early learning education skills. To ensure this, we provide a multitude of on and off-site professional development opportunities. Our training always meets and often exceeds the standard for early learning centers.
Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds
Building the foundation for healthy and successful children
Our unique and thoughtfully designed Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds program takes great care in fostering the development of the whole child. We set the foundation for making healthy choices which will benefit your child far into their future. At Stepping Stones, children are provided nourishing meals/snacks, ample opportunities for keeping active, engaging academic lessons and an exceptional environment in which to grow.
