Description: The St. John's Child Development Center (CDC) opened on September 13, 1999, to provide support to parents in the growth and development of their child. We nurture and care for infants and toddlers, ages six weeks to Kindergarten, in a Christian environment with well-defined educational objectives.
As a Four Star licensed facility, the CDC offers qualified staff members who provide developmentally appropriate activities in a kind, loving environment with individual and small group attention.
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.

This center can not keep teachers. The teachers constantly feel like they have no support from the admin office because they bring problems to the admin and are told “well that’s part of being at a daycare”. They are extremely unprofessional.
We were recommended to St.Johns by many people who used them years ago. I am confident in saying that the standards provided years ago no longer exist. We have been there for 1 year. Our child has had 8+ different teachers in two classrooms due to teacher turn over. She has come home with fire any bites since may and they have not taken appropriate action to resolve. My child's well being has not been their priority. On a walk through the playground today many for any hills were pointed out to her and upon leaving the playground she did not bother to notify any of the three classes outside to stay away from those areas showing blatent disregard for the safety of those left in her care. A few months ago I witnesses a incident where a child harmed another child which the teacher did not see; this resulted in the child screaming crying and the teacher did not attend to the child. I reported it to the office staff, the then director told me that it was my job as a parent to address it with the teacher not theirs. I was shocked and appalled. As a parent it is not my job to correct the teachers. We are pulling our child. We have been very unhappy with St.Johns and the lack of care and leadership.
Saint Johns daycare has been a blessing to my little girl and me .Saint johns child development center open there doors to us with making my child feel safe there and the teacher are fantastic and they have so much passion in what they do as teachers .The office staff is so kind and helpful and the director is amazing I couldn't ask for a better place for my child to be .
