PROMOTE FAMILY PRESCHOOL & CHILDCARE

The goals of PROMOTE Family Preschool & Childcare are:
- To cooperate with each family to provide a supportive and comfortable atmosphere where each child can develop at his or her own pace.
- To meet each child's needs while they are away from home by allowing both structured and unstructured play as well as individual and small group activities in a safe place.
- To offer our children a positive, Christian environment in which they can become confident in their own special abilities and share those talents with others.
