Kiddieland Preschool

Program and Goals

Each member of the childcare staff is a qualified, competent person.  They will provide genuine Christian love and understanding to each child.

Our curriculum is designed to meet the needs of each child as an individual.  They will experience many varying educational opportunities.  These include reading readiness, play, music, stories, art, science, health, physical education, crafts, and Bible stories.

All of these experiences are designed to provide lasting value in the physical, mental, and emotional development of the child.
