~ LICENSE EXEMPT PROGRAM
License Exempt
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.

About the Provider

Advertisement

We believe that each child is special and unique. Early childhood development sets the foundation for lifelong learning, behavior, and health. We believe development is interrelated and therefore our preschool program philosophy espouses that children have a natural curiosity that is nurtured though an integrated, authentic, play-based approach. We believe that development advances when children have opportunities to practice new skills as well as when they experience a challenge just beyond their present level of mastery. Children develop at different rates, learn in different ways, and express their knowledge in different ways. They learn best in an environment where they feel safe, valued and loved.



Sprout students will be immersed in an enriching environment with materials that offer opportunity for exploration and discovery and our curriculum will be a responsive one that follows a developmental continuum ensuring each child is ready for kindergarten. This curriculum includes exploration of science, mathematics, social studies, literacy, drama, music, creative movement, visual arts and the Bible.

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.
