Mission Statement
Our mission is to meet children where they are and help them to develop mentally, spiritually, physically, and emotionally by providing a loving Christian learning environment.

Curriculum
Our Christian curriculum is based on age appropriate learning activities included in various themes and units. Small group activities incorporate skills that are beneficial to the children's learning process.

A daily schedule is followed that is time structured to allow the children to participate in many activities during the day such as finger-plays, inside and outside activites, large and small motor activities, music, puppets, story time, cirle time, small groups, and center time. In addition, we provide a healthy, safe and nuturing environment for your children.

Discipline
During our time together, we stress respect for ourselves and each other. Rules will be explained so that all children understand. If the need arises, we will use Time Out. We will not use any form of physical punishment.

Illness
For the health and well-being of others, please do not let your child attend if they have fever, diarrhea, vomiting, or an unexplained rash. If your child becomes sick, we will call you.

Meals & Snacks
A nutritious lunch plus a morning snack and an afternoon snack will be provided for all full time children. Part time children will receive a morning snack only.
