ALL ABOUT US
Stepping Stones was created from a lifelong desire to open a child care facility within the home which would differ from traditional family home care. The aspiration was to create a childcare which kept the values and comfort of family day care at home and fuse it with modern childcare facilities including a curriculum and preparation for preschool and Kindergarten. Raj took ownership of a highly sought after and established childcare business from Joy and Dan Singh. The Singhs had been operating a successful home daycare for many years at their home in Yuba City on Anthony Way. The Singhs had a very good reputation within the area, and in Raj they were very satisfied they had found the right person to continue their legacy.

The Fire Department has set up an open day outside the daycare so the children and parents can have a fun day exploring and learning about safety and health concerns. The kids get to climb the truck and interact with the firemen!
