Children at Step Ahead are offered an inclusive environment in which to learn. The program provides services to special needs children from birth to three years old. The Step Ahead program aims to maximize every child’s potential. We work with children in a number of key areas, including social/emotional, physical, language, and cognition. By working together with parents, the staff are able to prepare a child so that the crucial first steps on the journey to learning begin on solid ground. Services include daycare, parent support, transportation, group and individual education as well as therapeutic interventions. We offer programs according to age and ability from birth to three years. Children are grouped in the following manner: Koala Bears - Birth to 15 months, and children with critical physical needs. Polar Bears - 15 months to 2 years. These children work at developing independent skills in feeding and playing. Zebras - 2 to 3 years. Teachers work with parents to develop fine and gross motor skills as well as language skills that are appropriate for this age group.
