Bethany’s First Steps promotes Christian values, manners, morals, respect and caring in a nurturing environment.  Bethany’s First Steps uses Creative Curriculum which is a research based comprehensive early childhood educational system that emphasizes a practical, easy to understand approach to working with children.  It promotes the use of interest areas in the classroom for music and movement, manipulatives, math, science, dramatic play, writing and art as a way of providing experiences that promote Physical, Social/Emotional, Cognitive and Language skill development.  Faith development is equally important.  Children will also participate in Bible time each week where they will learn about God’s love for them, sing praise songs and learn more about the Bible.

All children are welcomed and treated with respect.  Communication and developing relationships between the parent, child and teachers creates an atmosphere of respect, cooperation, communication, professionalism and kindness in which to give children the best care possible.  It is our goal that all of the children that attend Bethany’s First Steps leave with a strong sense of self and knowing that Jesus is in their heart.  We look forward to getting to know you and your family.
