Building a Foundation for the Future

December 18, 2014
Children are our future and ensuring they have the best start possible in life can help set them on a road to success for the future. Lifesteps’ Early Education Center in Beaver County provides programs and services for children as young as 6 weeks to 5 years old where children can learn and grow in a safe environment with experienced and dedicated staff. The toddler years specifically are a crucial time when connections begin to be made in a child’s brain. It is important to support that growth through activity and learning.

LEAP Preschool Model
Preschoolers can also benefit from the LEAP (Learning Experiences: an Alternative Program for Preschoolers and Parents) preschool model which has been developed to combine an early childhood curriculum with applied behavior analytic approach to teaching in an integrated classroom setting. The classroom model is established for children developing typically as well as children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. This model is used at Lifesteps and they believe that all children can benefit from an inclusive early childhood environment.
