Step by Step EDU-Play Programs & Services

Im surprised Jah was accused of preaching religion. He continues to have a major impact in my life. Hes an outstanding therapist who has helped me through my hardships disabilities and disorders and that is because he is a master of theology and knows how to assist in any community. If this is how this Step by Step treats their employees who are fully trained in mindfulness which inculdes a certain amount of spirituality than there is definitely something wrong with their clinical director mental health. To my knowledge what they did to Jah is against the universal declaration of human right created by the United Nations thats why my review is a 1 star rating.

This place was a savior for my daughter who has rare genetic mutation autism intellectual disability seizures and is non verbal. We first tried UCLA intervention and they kicked us out of there because my daughter had a seizure on the second day and I am guessing she was just too much for them but we even offered to supply our own 1 on 1 person for the program but they still dismissed her. They didnt even try to give her an adjustment period even schools for typically developing children have an adjustment period I felt devastated because if a program that was designed for kids with special needs such as UCLA intervention did not even want my child then what does the rest of the world hold for her Ive never felt so sad and dejected in all of my life not even on her diagnose day But then we enrolled Luna at step by step and it turned out to be the best for our family. The had a small student to teacher ratio which is just what my daughter needed. At the time we started there were two adults to 3 kids. Francesca is so dedicated and really passionate. My daughter loves her and used to cry when she left the room because she was really attached to her. She knows my daughter so well that we are always amazed by her keen and insightful observations she knows exactly what is going on with my daughter and just as well as we know her They are also really great about advocating for your child and gives great advice and is a great resource to have on your side. Shelley the owner is very dedicated to the cause and she does all of this altruistically. Never have I felt that they were trying to do anything in order to acquire more money from us. When we were going through IEP they never asked to be compensated for their attendance and weve had many calls for advice and never have I ever felt that they were trying to gather one penny from us I always feel they have my daughters best interest at heart I highly recommend this place if you ever get the chance to come

We feel very fortunate that we found this amazing caring special little place called - Step By Step. When our son was younger he attended Preschool at Step by Step and now that he is older he continues to attend the Social Skills classes every Saturday. The Step By Step staff - Administration Teachers and Support staff are extraordinary. Step By Step is a very rare combination of clinical expertise a remarkable knowledge base true compassion for each individuals needs in a safe nurturing and fun edu-play environment. Our son started in Preschool at Step By Step with severe developmental delays. He had Early Intervention services at home but we truly saw dramatic improvements and great strides in his overall development - once he got to Step By Step. The teachers worked tirelessly with our son helping to support his development his all areas - physical emotional behavioral and language. We feel our sons dramatic developmental progress is a direct parallel to the work support and guidance he received and continues to receive at Step By Step. He is thriving. The entire staff is very communicative about our sons challenges and successes and are always available to answer questions and make suggestions regarding his development. Over the years we have done extensive research looking for programs in the greater Los Angeles area especially the westside and valley for our son and Step By Steps program is extremely rare. The Step By Step Social Skills program is fantastic. This program nurtures and helps to build each child as a whole person with a focus on social communication thinking and intelligence - becoming a good citizen building character being active and healthy and being a positive contributor to a global community. In our opinion Step By Step is unique and unquestionably impressive We are so fortunate to have found Step By Step. It was a true blessing to discover Step By Step at a time when we were feeling helpless and lost with no real options for our son. Now fast forward 5 years and we are forever grateful and so so thankful to Shelly John and their extraordinary Step By Step team
