The Step by Step School provides after school pick-up from all schools located in Hoboken! Our educators will pick-up students from their primary schools and transport them to our center.

For any parent, an after school program offers a safe and fun environment where your child can go after the school day if you are unable to pick them up after the school day. For many parents, this is a harsh reality of working a job (or two) to support their family, that sometimes you need some help taking care of, transporting, and entertaining your children. However, finding a reliable and enjoyable after school program for your child is much easier said than done, and finding an affordable and effective location is even harder. Any after school program has a difficult job of corralling, educating, and entertaining your kids, but not necessarily in such a structured space of school. It’s generally not the determined learning environment of school, but an after school program that can not only reinforce, but build on the lessons and experiences that school can provide is invaluable. Whether you need the help while you’re still at work, or would just like more variety and entertaining learning experiences in your child's life, an after school program like the programs we provide at  The Step By Step School can offer a reliable solution.

At The Step by Step School in Hoboken, NJ, we are a proud team of experienced, educated, and compassionate teachers who want to provide smart and safe educational opportunities to your children, whether through one of our classroom programs, or an afterschool program.
