A Place Where Children Learn and Grow Since 1987
Our Staff
We at stepping stones strongly believe "Children must be taught how to think, not what to think" and our amazing staff helps us do so.
Here at Stepping Stones, we believe our staff should never stop learning. Every staff member is required to participate in a minimum of 15 hours a year in ongoing training, along with being CPR/First Aid certified. Our staff has a combined total of over 90 Years of experience working with children.
