Chicago, United States Stepping Stones Nursery School Full time

Stepping Stones Nursery School’s overall mission is to create a loving, caring environment that promotes creativity, imagination, early literacy and numeracy skills as well as self-confidence, independence and ‘tools for learning’. We are play-based and nature-infused educators who thrive on successfully facilitated play and maintaining inspired child-led classrooms.

Out approach to infant care is a belief that Infants should be cared for according to their own needs and development. Parents should work in consultation with SSNS to ensure similar sleeping and feeding routines are maintained at home and school. Daily activities promote optimal progress in physical development, language & communication, cognitive, social and emotional development. At SSNS, we like to ‘set the babies free’ allowing them ample time to explore their world at their own pace and level. This means lots of floor time, mínimal time spent in bouncers or seats, as well as lots of sensory experiences, love and cuddles.
