Our

Mission Statement

“Partnering with families in our community to develop children to their God given potential.”

 Purpose

The purpose of our center is to work with families to build relationships that help develop the whole child and provide quality care while sharing the love of Christ in our community.  We strive to not only meet the needs of children, but also assist families in the growth of children both developmentally and establishing a foundation of Christian faith.

Our

 Weekday Education Program

First Baptist Child Care Center was started in January 1973, and licensed by the State of Texas.  Our program is designed for children 2 years-5 years and school age children grades K-5 with the purpose of developing the whole child.  The center is governed by a church appointed committee and administered by the director.  Each member of the staff possesses the competency,  understanding essential in teaching children.  Staff also meet the training requirements set by the State of Texas.  Each staff member is certified in CPR and First Aid. Our child/staff ratio is low for the safety of the children.

Our Pre-Kindergarten program is for students who are 4 before September 1st.  It is a structured, fun learning environment where each child can explore, create, and develop from the inside out. Pre-K hours are from 8:30-11:30, Monday-Friday.  We offer extended care through our child care center.

Our classes are open to any child regardless of race or religious beliefs.  The curriculum is appropriately designed for the age groups and the development of each individual child.  We believe that a child absorbs his concept of God from people, things and experiences that are a part of his/her environment.  Thus, a love and appreciation for God, Christ, and the things God has made are stressed through appropriate activities.  We use the Church Weekday Early Education curriculum, (W.E.E.) and many other resources to accomplish our goals.

Your  child will participate in a variety of activities such as:

• Working with paints, clay, crayon, blocks, and other manipulative materials

• Making short excursions to points of interest in the community

• Enjoying stories, poetry, dramatization, films, books, chapel, and Bible stories

• Learning to share, taking turns, planning, working, and playing with others

• Acquiring good health and cleanliness habits

• Learning to respond rhythmically to music, singing new songs, and listening to different kinds of music

We hope your child's experiences here will be happy, wholesome ones.  As parents you are invited to visit us, ask questions, and make suggestions.  The best assurance for the success of your child's experiences is the close  cooperation and understanding of parents and staff.
