Philosophy / Mission Statement: 
Each Child Has Great Value
Our daycare is a home away from home. We believe that children are important individuals and should be treated with respect and dignity regardless of race, beliefs, or special needs. All children need to be loved, nurtured and guided to grow physically, emotionally, mentally, and socially in the best way possible.
The Staff's Role
We believe that play is the main learning medium for children. Therefore, children are provided with many play-centered activities to encourage exploration, curiosity, and social interaction. The staff strive to be supportive, gently, encouraging, working to build the child's self-esteem. All staff are qualified and meet the requirements established by government licensing agencies.
Our Beliefs
We believe that God reveals His personal self through creation, the Bible, and the life of Jesus. In order to have a personal relationship with God, a person must believe that God exists and that His Son Jesus Christ is the way to know God. Here, the Christian ethic is taught and followed. Children hear both secular and Bible stories, sing a variety of secular and Christian songs, and pray before meals.
The Family
Children are encouraged to respect their parents and love their families. Each family's differences are respected and staff will work together with parents to uphold values that will build a strong community.
