Exempt from licensing

Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services lists this provider as LICENSE EXEMPT PROGRAM, so it does not hold a child care license. Providers in this category are exempt from state licensing requirements, which means they are not inspected or monitored the way licensed providers are.

I am an employee

I have worked in the field of early education since the 80'start when I was a grad student. Calvary is by far my favorite and most rewarding work experience. What sets calvary apart from other experiences is the positive support staff give one another and the overall dedication and loyalty to the children and families. Every staff member is here because they truly are here for the children. Overall it is not just a paycheck but a commitment to children and a positive work environment. Many of us have been working for calvary for 10 or more years. That's a significant fact in a field that typically has an annual turn over to 40-50% annually.

Welcome to Calvary Lutheran’s Early Education Center (EEC), serving children ages 6 weeks to Pre-Kindergarten. Our program is designed to support parents by providing a quality, caring, Christ-centered environment for your child.

Our EEC children grow through play and experimentation in a variety of interest centers in their room. One example is the block area, where children learn about both math and science. Concerning math, they learn about area, size, order, space, numbers, mapping, patterns, measuring, operations and estimating. Concerning science, they learn about weight, height, gravity, balance, symmetry, spatial visualization and simple machines. The list goes on to include many areas of social and cognitive development.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
