Program Details
The Early Learning Center (ELC) provides play-based, Christ-centered care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and early school age students through age 7.
We are a state-licensed childcare facility, and adhere to all licensing rules and regulations. We do not provide meals as part of the program. We do create special dishes to try as part of our curriculum (especially once our garden is fruitful), but all regular meals are provided by the families.
Our educational facilities include the principle classrooms, bathrooms, music and movement areas; a multipurpose gymnasium; outdoor play area, community garden, and prayer trail.
