About Us

Step By Step Daycare has been in Business since 2001 and opened a second location in 2009.

Our daycare’s philosophy is child-centered, providing a safe and learning environment for all students who enter our facility. We acknowledge that all children are unique and capable of learning in a way that best fits their learning style. Our program provides a wide-range environment that recognizes student’s individual interest, needs, knowledge/ learning styles. We believe in the importance of community and the significance in working with the
parents or guardians of our students so we can best help aid the student’s growth. We recognize that children learn best through meaningful play, that is reflected in our facility, expressed through creative play whether it be physical, cognitive, social, emotional, language, self-help, and the overall meaningful areas for the complete development of each child. Meaningful play inspires curiosity, discovery, and problem solving which permits individual growth and the expansion of positive self-imaging.

Our foundation is represented by a creative play-based environment. Our social media outlet, Brightwheel, reflects the magnitude that creative play and social interaction holds on our day to day experiences. We use Brightwheel as a tool to exhibit the milestones of each child. Please keep in mind all Brightwheel posts will be taken throughout the day and will be updated accordingly to the times that it was taken.

We use the environmental rating scales, ITERS-3,ECERS-3, and GrowNJ Kids to evaluate each student so we can determine the best way to help the child learn.

We provide care for infants, toddlers, preschool and pre kindergarten.

Our hours of operations are Monday-Friday 7 am- 6 pm
