2 Classrooms Support Them At Their Own Pace

At this age, children’s skills and abilities vary.  With 2 classrooms, they can learn and grow with peers who are at a similar level, and at their own pace.  Hands-on learning activities have a dual purpose: tons of fun while getting your kiddo ready for school.

Faith-Based Learning & Dedicated Teachers

Your child’s faith grows as they do with loving, patient care and guidance from experienced, dedicated teachers. They learn about God’s love through stories, songs, and modeling of Christian behavior in the classroom.

A Parent App To Support Your Child’s Daily Success

Teachers communicate with you daily using the free, easy-to-use Brightwheel™ app. You receive photos, videos, activity reports, and memos to keep you connected to the classroom. Teachers also welcome your input for continuity of care and a true home-school partnership.

ABCJesus Loves Me™ For Academic Building Blocks

The comprehensive, Bible-based ABCJesus Loves Me™ curriculum helps your child learn with weekly themes that include Bible lessons, reading, writing, letters, and language, counting numbers to 20, shapes, patterns, colors, and pre-math, and early science like seasons and senses.

Social-Emotional Learning That Will Last Them For Life

Your child’s teachers guide them through self-regulation, conflict resolution, learning teamwork and cooperation, sharing, and using listening skills and manners to help your child become confident, kind, and respectful.  They become a good citizen of the classroom and the world.

Practical & School Skills For Now & The Future

They tie their shoes, recite and write their name, address, and phone number, practice circle time, listening ears, and lining up, and work their way towards 30 minutes of ‘sit-still’ lessons to prepare for school and beyond.

Amazing Outdoor Play With A Splash Pad On-Site Too

Your child goes outdoors every day to an age-level playground and learning garden where they explore with friends while practicing gross motor skills and building large muscle groups. A splash pad keeps things extra cool on extra hot days.

A Nutritious Food Program Is Included In Your Tuition

A Nutritious Food Program Is Included In Your Tuition

Save time and money and always know your kiddo gets the nutrition they need to stay fueled for learning. They receive a fresh, healthy, allergen-conscious breakfast, lunch, and snack daily, made onsite to meet or exceed state and CACFP standards.

Field Trips Bring Them Out Into The Community

Whether a trip to the zoo to learn about animals or a trip to the farm to discover where fresh food comes from, your child loves going on adventures. They have a blast while connecting to the world around them.

Soccer Star, Gymnast, Or Swimming Champ Today?

Add Soccer Shots®, swim lessons, or gymnastics and tumbling to their routine to enhance your child’s skillset. They grow strong and confident while learning teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship. Enrichment classes are available for a nominal fee.

A Clean, Secure Environment Safeguards Their Well-Being

Rest assured that your child stays safe and healthy with strict daily cleaning and sanitization measures, CPR-certified teachers, sturdy playground fences, and entrances restricted to authorized fob holders. Their health and safety remain paramount as they play, grow, and learn.

5 years ago as a new mom I found this daycare and trusted them to take care of my baby. In those 5 years all of the teachers were amazing. Anytime I was dropping him off I was confident that he was in the hands of someone who truly cared for him. He is also a VERY picky eater and they were always willing to help us out and try new things to get him to eat new foods. Any issue (very rare) was met with a quick communication and resolution. I will always recommend this daycare to anyone looking for childcare. THANK YOU to everyone for taking such great care of him!!

I have been so impressed with the love, patience, and compassion that has been poured out on both of my kids by all the staff. I am communicated with on a daily basis from the teachers, and I can check on them anytime and know I will get a quick response. My son talks about his teachers as much as he talks about extended family members and I can feel the love he has for them, which makes me feel so safe every time I drop them off. He also often comes home singing prayer songs and songs about Jesus. I am so happy with the care we have received, and I recommend ACH to all my friends and family looking for childcare.

Our 2 year old is loving going to "school" here. There was an adjustment period of course, since this is his first time in day care but the teachers were so loving and patient and he quickly settled in and is now excited to go. The staff has been wonderful! Their technology and communication is amazing. We love the apps features for chatting with the teachers, getting updates on food, activities, diapers + naps and being able to access a camera for his class room. We are very happy with our experience here and seeing our child thrive gives us so much reassurance. He is learning so much! We are very thankful to have our child go here.

As a first time parent there is a lot of anxiety that comes with leaving your baby for the first time. A child's heart has been a perfect fit. The entire staff is friendly and helpful and it is so sweet that they all know our babies name when she comes and goes. The one who goes above and beyond for our baby is Betty, she gives us so much peace of mind in the care she offers for our baby, but also she is exceptionally helpful in communicating and coming up with a plan that works at daycare and home. Highly recommend this center for any little one 🙂

Although it’s a fairly big daycare center, every single staff person knows my son and says “hi” and “goodbye” to him each day. He has always been shy but completely blossomed in their care; he is confident and excited to go each day. He hugs the teachers like they are family he’s known his whole life and he wants to stay and keep playing at the end of the day when I come to get him. Amanda seems to oversee the staffing side of things and was easy to communicate with, attentive and responsive to any requests. I would recommend A child’s Heart to any parent looking for a high quality daycare center for their child.

We have only had our daughter going to ACH for about a month now but I'm here to tell you we couldn't be happier. We had been looking for a daycare to get some socializing exposure because most of the time she lives as an only child only seeing her siblings on weekends. Daycare made me nervous because of a previous experience and she's my first so being a new mom daycare was very scary for me. Probably more scary for me then her in some ways lol .. ACH has been so wonderful to her and us the experience and patience and care for the children and the parents is remarkable. Every time my daughter is there I'm completely confident and comfortable with having her there so I can take a day to get things done or just relax knowing she's having fun and being cared for.

We have had our son with Child’s Heart since he was nine months old, and over a year later, we have felt nothing but love and engagement from the staff. They’re great about updating via an app all day, and happy to report he brings home all sorts of new skills (throwing his trash away, picking up after himself, saying sorry), that only come from engaging with other kids throughout the day. Grateful for a place I know he is safe and happy so I can focus at work!

My daughter just started going to ACH. She had never been in any type of daycare or school before and we decided to stick her in a couple days a week to learn and socialize. I was super nervous but honestly could not feel more at ease with our decision Mia and Payton have made me feel so comfortable. On the first day my daughter went right into Payton’s arms with no tears! They were amazing at keeping me updated throughout the day as I was on edge all day thinking of her. When I picked her up she was sitting so calmly at the table with the other kids which I never thought she would do LOL I wish we would’ve made this decision sooner and I can’t wait to watch my baby girl grow and learn!

We have been with ACH for about 4 months now and they have been incredible! The staff is very helpful and friendly and my daughter adores each of them! They go above and beyond to make her feel welcome and loved every day. Kati has been one of the best daycare teachers we have ever had. She is always communicating with us and I very much appreciate her! My daughter was having skin issues on her hands and she worked with me daily to figure out what was causing it and actively helping to make her poor hands healthy again. I wish we found this daycare center sooner!

This was the first school my daughter has ever attended. My daughters teacher Miss Katie is the perfect teacher. She loves all the kids and provides lots of activities and fun into their day. They have an app that gives updates on your kids day and she always takes the time to write about each individual kid with pictures, videos and talking about funny things that were said during circle time. My daughter loves going to school everyday. The staff all work together to care for the kids and there is definitely a family vibe when you walk in. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you did for our daughter and preparing her for the future to come. God bless every single one of you. ❤️

We've been with A Child's Heart for 6 months now and have had a wonderful experience. Our little guy has so much fun there and comes home having learned something new everyday. He gets fed a breakfast, snack, lunch and another snack while there and lots of play learning in between. The outside play area is super fun and I'm glad he gets lots of outside time. The staff really seem to care about our little guy and all the kids in their care. Everything is documented in an app called Brightwheel that parents can see in real time. I am put at ease knowing his direct caregiver is a simple instant message away. The owner Mia greets us every morning and waves goodbye for pick-ups. I am definitely giving A Child's Heart five stars.
