Programs Designed

for Every Stage

From infants to preschoolers, we offer thoughtfully designed programs that encourage children to develop at their own pace while building essential life skills.

  • Mastering the fine art of tummy time, discovering toes, & perfecting the “feed me” cry.

  • Social-emotional growth, sensory play, & testing gravity one sippy cup at a time.

  • Singing the same song 100 times, conquering the potty, & debating snack choices like pros.

  • Asking “why?” nonstop, early literacy & math, & learning that sharing is (sometimes) caring.

  • Kindergarten readiness, storytelling with wild creativity, & mastering the art of negotiation.

More Than Childcare

A Place to Belong

At Step Ahead Childcare & Preschool, we understand that choosing childcare isn’t just about finding a place—it’s about finding a second home. Our warm, nurturing environment fosters learning, trust, and strong partnerships with parents. With honesty at our core, we create a space where children feel like family and develop the confidence to thrive.
