The Stepping Stone Family Child Care

It's a pleasure to meet you my name is Megghan, I am the Director here at The Stepping Stone Family Child Care. I am a Mother of 2 (13 and 5 years of age) and find that it's sometimes better for some children to be in a smaller environment versus being overwhelmed in a larger environment where they don't get the attention they need. So here, at The Stepping Stone Family Child Care, I pride myself in its small, warm and homey feeling where the child gets the attention they deserve and feel more at home. I offer a variety of activities to help your children learn and grow including books, puzzles, arts and crafts; as well as a great/safe in-door and out-door play areas for them to explore, a comfortable place for them to take their naps and nutritional breakfast, lunch and an AM/PM snack. For your needed peace of mind, I am a fully licensed childcare provider through the State of California, as well as certified in Pediatric CPR, First Aid, and Preventative Health and Nutrition. The Stepping Stone Family Child Care is also conveniently located near Pershing, OV Open, Twin Lakes and Andrew Carngie Elementary Schools (all within a 2-mile radius of our location) for those of you with children attending close by. I look forward to filling my openings with the sound of children's laughter and happy parents.

Pros of a family child care program:
- More relaxed curriculum: Children may follow a curriculum, but there is more freedom for changing the schedules to better fit the individual needs of the children.
- Siblings can remain together: This is an important factor, especially for those whose children are very close.
- More individual attention: Unfortunately, more often than not, children are a face in the crowd in a day care center, in a family child care home, we really get to know each other well.
-Affordability: The cost may be cheaper than a day care center.
-Fewer germs: Because there are fewer children, your child may be exposed to fewer illnesses.
