Description: RIPC operates a 5-star child care ministry Monday through Friday from 7:30AM to 5:30PM. Licensed to care for 12 infants and toddlers, our priority is to serve children of high school parents, foster parents, those with a history of domestic violence, and those with disabilities and developmental delays. For this ministry to exist, our tiny fellowship wrote a comprehensive amendment to the county zoning code, organizing lobbying for its passage well before the church was chartered. This ministry has been making a difference in the lives of the youngest at-risk children and their families since 1991.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

I have and know many families that use this daycare,*which is more like a learning center,than a place to 'just watch children'. They are so interactive and hands on that I refer all my friends to this facility. I hear from friends whose children attend here,always the best"..On top of being a 5*star(highest you can get)facility,they truly show empathy,love and care to all the children in there care.I would recommend them above all others, if you want a babysitting service, it is not, if you want a place your children are safe,tended,loved and actually "taught" *Great for those going to prekindergarten or kindergarten.This is your daycare center.Call to find out all the extra programs to help you with cost,they are affordable & take subsidy as well.Other daycares, you will pay much more for the same comparable attention given here,but not so at Roanoke Island Presbyterian and rest assured your child is in a ?10star environment.Parents are always welcome to stop by,see what your child is doing, and what they have to offer.
