We exist to provide loving care and guidance for children during their formative years. Because we believe that each child learns at a different rate, we provide small classes to insure that each child receives individual attention. Our program has been planned for children six weeks through pre-k with the goal of assisting them in their mental, emotional, social, physical and spiritual development. 

Our program uses a Christian-based curriculum, Wee-Learn, which was developed by  Lifeway Publishing for church-based preschools. All classrooms use lesson plans to implement the curriculum and all teachers have extensive training in teaching preschoolers.  All lead teachers have Associate, CDA (Child Development Associate) or higher degrees (or are in the process of obtaining).  Teachers have CPR and first aid certification, as well as training in fire safety.

Preschool classes are held for children six weeks through five years and children through second grade are accepted into a summer program.
