Monarch Child Development Center (MCDC) is a high quality Christian childcare center where learning and fun become one. We are committed to providing a fun-filled, rewarding program. We believe that a child's day must include personal attention, gentle guidance, developmentally appropriate activities, character-building values, singing, Art, Creative Movement, Reading, Math and problem-solving challenges. You can rest assured that your child is having fun learning and mastering important skills, as well as, developing Christian values by being exposed to lessons and curricular activities chosen by our professional team of experienced educators.
Monarch Child Development Center is an exemplary institution designed to provide the highest quality of learning through a Christian based educational program that will prepare children for future success, thereby, building a life-long interest in learning.
At Monarch Child Development Center, our goal is to provide the best opportunities and experiences for infants and preschoolers to explore learning in a creative learning environment that will foster each child's growth spiritually, socially, intellectually, emotionally, and physically at his or her own rate. Since we know every child will leave us, we strive to train each child so that they will develop a God-centered world in their minds and hearts that will determine their attitudes and actions in every aspect of their life. Finally, MCDC is a place for your child to grow in a creative and safe environment that makes early academic success achievable.
Monarch Child Development Center emphasizes the Christian family. We are dedicated to helping children and assisting parents by shepherding the spiritual growth and development of each child. To develop spiritually, it is important to build character by instilling values in children and teaching them about God. The following 7 values are emphasized in all MCDC's programs:
- Kindness
- Sharing
- Honesty
- Helpfulness
- Love
- Obedience
- Cheerfulness
Through our programs, and the modeling of these values, MCDC makes a
profound difference in cultivating godly character in children, thus
encouraging a biblical parenting style and enhancing the Christian family.
