Welcome to Stepping Stones Academy!





Ashley Serdar
Administrator & Owner
I am very grateful to be able to provide a safe, nurturing, and happy learning environment for your children. My dream has been to open a meaningful center for kids to be taken care of and loved and also for parents to feel safe and have a piece of mind knowing their children are well taken care of. As a mother myself finding childcare where you were able to be at work and not worry was a struggle. Children's safety is the utmost important thing to us. We are not a normal daycare nor are we "Just babysitters" we help in many different ways developmentally, educationally, emotionally and more. We will help your child with the right steps towards a solid educational foundation and a brighter future. We go above and beyond to help each child reach their full potential. Being in childcare since 2016 I have learned a lot about the differences in children's learning styles, special needs education, and have been able to help many teachers adapt their lessons accordingly. We look forward to being a part of your child's life!

Hello! I am excited to welcome you and your child to our class! I am your child's Pre-K 1 Teacher. I love watching you children's progress throughout class and watching them grow! I am so thankful to be able to teach them and help them meet their developmental milestones. A little about me: My boyfriend Jace and I have a dog named Bark Vader, a cat named Trooper and a turtle named Oscar! We love to ride SxS and go fishing in our spare time.

Assistant Teacher

Hi! My name is Sammi, and I'm so excited to be here! I'm happily married and a blessed mama to twin boys and a 1 year old little guy- they keep me busy and smiling every day!
I was born in Virginia but raised in Ohio, so I like to think I get the best of both worlds. I've spent the last 13 years working as a medical assistant, caring for others and learning so much along the way.
This is my first year teaching, and I am beyond excited for this new adventure! I'm looking forward to learning, growing, and having fun together!
