Our After Care program
To complement the dynamic preschool curriculum, Stepping With The Stones also offers a fun, comfortable, and social After Care program for its own preschoolers, led by a knowledgeable and caring child care staff. Our staff here at Stepping With The Stones is carefully selected based on their training and values, as well as their ability to truly enjoy young children. In fact, one of the Stones' daughters supervises the After Care program.
SWTS's exciting program extends the preschool day from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for families needing more flexibility in their weekly schedule. Parents select specific days, or, take full advantage of the program's Monday through Friday child-care service.
SWTS After Care program is a warm and secure environment where children can play and choose learning. Here preschoolers have the opportunity to further socialize through playing indoor and outdoor games, cooking, reading, and arts and crafts, etc., true to the Stepping With The Stones style! SWTS After Care staff make this time come-alive with hands-on activities for each child, provide socialization and guidance, encourage involvement, and foster self-esteem and teamwork through positive interactions. Many children continue to have fun with self-selected preschool learning initiatives during After Care. Here again, children have the opportunity to choose from all activities based on their individual interests.
