About Us
A message from our president
Our journey began with a vision to transform everyday spaces into safer, more inclusive environments. The realization that many public facilities, particularly restrooms, were not designed with the needs of children and those with certain disabilities in mind sparked our mission. Step 'n Wash was born out of the necessity to make handwashing accessible to everyone, regardless of their height or physical ability.
At Step 'n Wash, we're more than just a product company. We are a team dedicated to creating more accessible environments. Each Step 'n Wash step is a testament to our commitment to quality and innovation. Our steps are designed to be safe, durable, and easy to use, ensuring that every individual can maintain hygiene effortlessly.
I am grateful to our dedicated team, our partners, and most importantly, our supportive community of customers and Step ‘n Wash users. Your feedback, stories, and enthusiasm fuel our innovation and inspire us to keep pushing. Together, we are making a difference, one step at a time.

The Origin Story
One morning, after a children’s story time at a local bookstore, I took my three year old son to the restroom. When I lifted him up, I didn’t realize that I was leaning against him and pressing his stomach against the wet, sharp counter edge. He immediately started to cry and as I comforted him I thought to myself, “there has to be a better way!”
Businesses provide many family-friendly amenities, such a diaper changing tables, but nothing had ever been developed to help toddlers and small children reach the sink to wash their hands. There were so many different kinds of step stools available for children to use at home, yet nothing safe had been designed for public restrooms.
After talking with other parents, I soon realized that we shared the same frustration and knew I needed to create a solution. I hired a leading engineering firm here in Atlanta to work on my idea and after numerous designs, prototypes and rigorous product testing, Step ‘n Wash was born.
Today, Step ‘n Wash can be found in thousands of businesses all over the United States and Canada. I’m so humbled by the emails I receive from parents and grandparents thanking me for creating Step ‘n Wash. It gives me great satisfaction knowing I’ve invented something that makes a difference in peoples’ lives. Thank you to everyone for all of your support!
