With low student-to-teacher ratios, Jacob’s Ladder meets and exceeds the Department of Human Services Child Care Licensing requirements. It provides speciallized care for children 6 weeks through their departure to Kindergarten. Realizing that care for children includes more than their minds, Jacob’s Ladder offers nutritious meals and snacks to feed their bodies and a curriculum based in the Christian faith to feed their souls.

Lunches are prepared daily and served family style with whole milk. Lunch, morning and afternoon snacks are included in the tuition. Three beautiful playgrounds have been designed for the center. Jacob’s Ladder is open from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, year-round.

Parents are always welcome to visit Jacob’s Ladder. Nursing mothers often stop by on their lunch hour and rock their babies. Many parents just stop by to peak in the window!

Parent/teacher conferences are scheduled in October and March. Many family activities are planned throughout the year. If you have any questions, or would like to visit Jacob’s Ladder, please feel welcome to call the director, Sally Draper.

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