Step by Step Early Learning and Childcare Center is a childcare and early learning centre in South Lake Tahoe that offers care from infancy through transitional kindergarten in a Reggio Emilia–inspired learning environment.
Step by Step is a full-day early learning centre that provides care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and children in transitional kindergarten. The centre opened in October 2017 and emphasizes developmentally appropriate activities and family communication.
The program is influenced by the Reggio Emilia approach and uses a developmentally appropriate, research-based curriculum. Daily activities include art projects, music and movement, reading and stories, manipulatives to support fine and gross motor skills, self-help skills, and outdoor play. Individual education plans can be developed when needed.
Lead teachers hold Child Development Permits issued by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. Employees complete background checks and drug screening, and the staff undertake continued professional development (21 units per year are required). The centre follows CDC guidance for illness exclusion and related health policies.
The infant area is described as calm and nurturing with abundant natural light; the centre posts classroom curricula and daily schedules for parents to view and maintains an open-door policy for family involvement. Transitional kindergarten ratios are maintained at one teacher per eight students.
These preschool classes foster social and emotional growth and provide developmentally appropriate daily activities such as letter, shape and color recognition, circle time, reading, math, science, and fine and gross motor development; toilet training is provided.
The infant room cares for children from birth until the time they will benefit from moving to the Toddler Class; schedules are set by each child and teachers post curriculum in the classroom for parents to view.
The Toddler classroom provides a nurturing environment with daily opportunities to explore through age-appropriate toys and projects; caregivers encourage use of words and sign language, support autonomy, and guide behavior regulation.
The Transitional Kindergarten class is structured to ease the move to Kindergarten with daily activities including circle time, letter and number development, math, measurement, geometry and science; the class ratio is maintained at one teacher per eight students.
