About the Provider

Description: God's Garden offers three-hour classes for children ages 20 months to four years. Afternoon extension programs for three and four-year olds include Stay-N-Play and fun enrichment classes such as Spanish, Cooking, Nature, and Fitness. We believe it is important for children to learn respect for others and to develop social skills that enable them to relate to other children and adults. Emphasis is placed on developing Christian values such as cooperation, honesty, forgiveness, empathy, obedience and patience. These values and beliefs are modeled and taught daily by dedicated teachers and staff. Basic Bible stories and teachings are used to support these values and beliefs. In addition, children at God's Garden learn to pray and worship God. Each day begins and ends with prayer. And even the littlest ones get to participate in worship during monthly Chapel led by the Pastor of Horizon Presbyterian Church.
