Description: The purpose of The Learning Zone is to support families of the church and the community by teaching their children biblical values. We also strive to stimulate their minds through academic teaching, arts, crafts, music, Bible stories, and gym time. Our ultimate goal is to encourage each child to develop an awareness of God's love through Jesus Christ and to learn to give and accept love in a Christ-like manner.
It is our desire that every family that comes through the doors of Southland Community Church may have their lives enhanced through the love of Christ, and that we may show them how to experience life as great as God intended it to be.
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.
