Ministry through Childcare
Life is a developmental process with each stage built upon or related
to the previous ones. We believe that the early years of a child's
life are crucial ones for learning trust, self-esteem, confidence,
and developing faith. These are best learned in relationships with
other children and sensitive, qualified, loving adults. We also
believe these qualities of trust, self-esteem, faith, and confidence
are essential to the Christian faith and important in any chosen
religion. While we are appreciative of other religious preferences,
we are unashamedly Christian in our belief, orientation, and procedures.
It is with this belief that we can be helpful in the wholesome development
of children and can enhance family life that the United Methodist
Church incorporates, in its total ministry, a program of childcare.
We pray, and will work, to be a center where children may grow tall
and wise and know they are loved by God and by people.
MCCP is a non-profit organization. All money
generated by the playschool is used for playschool operations. While
we normally set tuition rates at the beginning of the school year,
we reserve the right to increase tuition at any time to meet the
cost of operation of the school.
Exceeding the Standards
Our goal is to maintain room ratios which meet or exceed the high
standards set by the National Association for the Education of Young
Children (NAEYC). We recognize that low room ratios are essential
to high quality childcare but reserve the right to adjust our child/teacher
ratio at any time to lower the cost of operating the school. |
