Thank you for your interest in First Baptist Child Development Center!

Purpose: To provide every child a joyful, caring Christian atmosphere so they may grow spiritually, academically, mentally, physically, emotionally,                      and socially.

Our objective is to support every child’s development in each of these areas.

Spiritually: to know there is one true God, to know they are loved and cherished by God, to understand our need for Jesus, to honor and revere                             the word of God/ the Bible

Academically: to gain a wide range of knowledge, have full comprehension of age-appropriate concepts, to reach classroom goals, and to be                            well-prepared for upcoming academic challenges

Mentally: to expand their interests, think independently, and develop problem solving skills

Physically: to establish personal cleanliness habits, to improve both gross and fine motor skills, and to follow and practice simple rules of safety

Emotionally: to learn that it is ‘ok’ and normal to feel a wide range of emotions, to include happy, sad, angry, frustrated, excited, etc, and to work on                    regulating all emotions and expressing those emotions in appropriate ways

Socially: to grow in ability to work and play with others, to develop an attitude of kindness and cooperation toward others, to receive guidance in building         healthy and appropriate school relationships with peers and adults, to receive guidance on setting healthy boundaries with peers, and to grow in the             ability to accept individual responsibility for choices made amongst peers
