Play. Learn.
Grow with purpose.
Childhood should be filled with curiosity, movement, creativity, meaningful relationships and opportunities to discover something new.
Learning through childhood.
We create space for children to explore, play, build friendships and develop skills through both structured activities and free play.
Learn
Grow!
A balance of structure and freedom.
Children need opportunities to explore freely, but they also benefit from thoughtful structure, routine and intentional activities.
Our program combines structured activities with free play so children can develop skills while still experiencing the creativity and discovery that make childhood special.
Structured + Free Play
Structured activities give children opportunities to learn new skills, participate together and experience guided learning.
Free play gives children room to imagine, create, make choices, explore interests and build independence.
Growing in every area.
Our program creates opportunities for children to develop socially, emotionally, physically and creatively.
Social
Children learn to interact with others, build friendships, cooperate, share and participate as part of a group.
Emotional
Children are encouraged to recognize feelings, build confidence and learn healthy ways to respond to challenges.
Physical
Active play helps children develop strength, coordination, balance and important gross and fine motor skills.
Creative
Art, imagination, music and play give children opportunities to express themselves and explore new ideas.
Biblical truth woven naturally into the day.
Central Kids is intentionally Christian. Our program is grounded in biblical truth and traditional Christian values.
Faith is introduced in age-appropriate ways through everyday experiences, relationships, conversation and intentional teaching.
Faith at Central Kids
Move. Play. Explore.
Active play gives children opportunities to build healthy bodies, confidence and social skills.
Children were made to move.
Central Kids includes a minimum of 60 minutes of active play each day. Active play may happen indoors or outdoors and can be divided into shorter periods throughout the day.
Outdoor play is included daily when weather conditions permit.
Childhood should be hands-on.
Screen time is kept to an absolute minimum at Central Kids and is not intended to be a regular part of our daily or weekly program.
Screens may occasionally be used for a specific educational purpose or a rare special event, but our focus is on hands-on learning, movement, play, creativity and face-to-face interaction.
Parents are part of the journey.
Parents know their children in a way no one else does. We value communication with families and encourage parents to share information that helps us understand and support their child.
We also want families to know what their children are experiencing throughout the program and to feel comfortable asking questions or providing feedback.
Staying connected
Program updates and information may be shared through newsletters, email or the daycare's communication platform.
Parents are encouraged to share feedback and communicate specific needs or preferences related to their child's participation in the program.
