Peace Child Care offers a Christ-Centered, nurturing environment that facilitates the learning and development of each individual child. We strive to foster a community that is built on mutual respect and developmentally appropriate practice for young children. Our practices are grounded on Biblical truth, open-ended exploration of the natural world, implementing effective instruction based on current best practice in early childhood including child-led and child-initiated learning, and engaging in purposeful documentation of each individual child’s development. We desire to build meaningful relationships that promote the spiritual, social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth of the whole child.
