Our Center opened in September of 1998 in the newly built St. Paul Church to provide quality Christian day care for our community. We made our plans for the church with the day care in mind. Therefore the Center is well designed and attractive. The congregation supports the Center as a ministry of the church. We believe we offer a loving, caring home away from home for each child. We have care for children aged six weeks to five years. As a Christian child care center we have set the following as our foundation:

God is the Creator of all seen and unseen and interacts with us as his good creation,

Family is the central point of our nation and the foundation for building our future,

Love is the unifying factor for all of the above.

  Children are important to God as stated by Jesus in Matthew 19:14, "Let the little children come unto me and do not hinder them for such is the kingdom of God."

  Our philosophy is that children are as important to us as they are to Jesus. Our goal is to enhance the total growth of your child.

Our objectives are:

• To convey to your child that they are important enough to talk with, play with, and learn with.
• To give them guidance, a balanced day and to provide materials necessary for a creative atmosphere; and above all...
• To provide LOVE and ACCEPTANCE of your child.

Our program is a balance of the following activities in a Christian setting:

• Learning activities
• Individual and cooperative activities
• Group activities
• Indoor/Outdoor activities

These activities are adapted to fit the needs and age level of each child.

The Center is open Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM until 5:30 PM. For more information please call the Children's Center at 267-1754 and speak with the Director, Amy Pinkerton .
