Pediatric Care for Your Center

At Little Steps Pediatric House Calls, we understand the day-to-day challenges that early childhood centers and daycares face. That’s why we bring professional, compassionate pediatric care directly to you making it easier to keep your children healthy, your staff supported, and your parents reassured.

Led by ShaTara Coleman, MSN, FNP-C, a Family Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of pediatric experience, our services are designed to fit seamlessly into your daily operations while enhancing the health and wellness of your center.

All services and plans are fully customizable! we’ll tailor them to fit the unique needs, size, and workflow of your daycare.

What We Offer:

On-Site Sick Visits + Parent Telehealth
When a child becomes ill during the day, we come to your center to assess them. We coordinate care in real-time with the child’s parent via telehealth, provide a diagnosis, and can prescribe medication if appropriate.

Vaccination Compliance Audits
Stay prepared for licensing inspections. We review all immunization records and provide a clear, organized compliance report.

Custom Care Plans
For children with seizures, asthma, allergies, or other health needs, we create clear, easy-to-follow plans tailored to your staff and setting with parental input.

Enrollment & School Physicals
We offer on-site school physicals for new enrollments, school requirements, or when families can’t find time to visit their PCP.

Health Workshops for Staff & Parents
Engaging, evidence-based workshops on common topics: fever care, nutrition, asthma management, first aid basics, and more.

How It Works:

  1. Staff identifies a child with symptoms or a health need.
  2. Parent is notified and provides consent.
  3. NP visits the center (within hours if same-day)
  4. Evaluation, diagnosis, and telehealth with parent
  5. Care plan and/or prescription provided
  6. Documentation sent to parent & center

Flexible Payment Options:

  • Parent-paid visit: $100 (Insurance accepted: BCBS, Cigna, United Health Care)
  • Vaccine Audit with compliance report: Starting at $300 per group (up to 25 children)
  • Center Packages: Starting at $800/month (includes sick visits, audits, and 2–4 workshops)

Why Daycares Love Us:

  • Reduced early pickups and unnecessary ER visits
  • Increased parent confidence and satisfaction
  • Quick access to a licensed prescribing medical provider
  • Fully licensed and insured
  • Easy, secure online scheduling
  • Custom-fit plans that grow with your center’s needs

What’s the Difference? RN vs NP
Unlike RNs, Nurse Practitioners (NPs) can:

  • Diagnose illnesses
  • Prescribe medications
  • Develop and manage care plans
  • Bill insurance directly
  • Work independently under their own license

As a Family Nurse Practitioner, ShaTara offers both the warmth of a nurse and the clinical authority of a medical provider.
