Welcome to Grace Children\u2019s Center<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing care for your child is one of the biggest decisions a family makes. At Grace Children’s Center, you’re choosing a team that shows up for your child every day \u2014 teachers who know their names, notice their moods, and celebrate their milestones alongside you. We’re a community that values relationship, cooperation, curiosity, imagination, and respect for all living things, and we cultivate emotional regulation, connection, and gratitude in every child who walks through our doors, from six weeks old through fifth grade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our teachers and families come from many cultures, languages, and walks of life \u2014 and that’s part of what makes this community strong. Every child is welcomed and cared for exactly as they are, in classrooms where differences are treated as something to celebrate, not just accommodate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We Value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What guides how we care for your child<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n
\n

Whole-Child Learning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Each child deserves a high-quality, loving early learning program that encourages the whole child, preparing them for each subsequent stage of development, laying a foundation for successful adulthood.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Families as First Teachers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Families are a child\u2019s first teachers, who have invited us into relationship with them in the care, training, and teaching of their child.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Community Partnership<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Community partnerships, like with our parent organization Grace Lutheran Church, are integral to providing care for every child, strengthening families, and equipping our teachers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Empowered Teachers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Teachers are unique individuals, and we strive to understand, appreciate and equip them for the work of ministry and for building up the children and families in our care.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n\n

A Ministry of Grace Lutheran Church<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

That means that we are loving and accepting of all people while teaching children developmentally appropriate bible stories and songs. We pray before snacks and meals and comfort children with the love of Jesus. Not all of our families and staff are Christians, but we all work together under the ministry and common culture of compassion, kindness, and acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

Worship With Us at Grace Lutheran Church<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Grace Children’s Center shares a campus and a community with Grace Lutheran Church \u2014 the congregation that founded us and continues to support our mission today. Whether or not your family is enrolled at the Center, you’re always welcome at worship, fellowship, and church events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
