Steps To The Future Daycare Center Inc

Overview

Steps To The Future Daycare Center Inc serves children from roughly 12 months to 12 years and has operated in Calumet City since 2007. The centre offers full‑day care, before‑and‑after‑school programs, seasonal summer programming and extended evening/night care.

Approach and curriculum

The programme emphasises play‑based learning and uses a Creative Curriculum approach and anti‑bias materials to support social, emotional and cognitive development. The centre conducts developmental assessments on enrolment, provides individual goal planning for children with identified needs, and lists bilingual staff resources (English and Spanish).

Practical information for families

Meals: three state‑funded meals are provided daily (breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack) with published meal times.
Staffing and ratios: published classroom ratios include a 4:1 ratio for toddlers and larger ratios for preschool and school‑age groups; staff hold training such as CPR certification.
Facilities and services: the programme includes outdoor play, field trips, and a transportation service that the centre states extends into nearby Indiana communities. The building uses controlled entry (visitors are buzzed in) and staff are mandated reporters for suspected child abuse or neglect.
