The mission of Saint Peter Community Childcare Center is to offer a quality childcare program for infants, toddlers and preschoolers that facilitates and nurtures the individual needs and abilities of each child. Our philosophy is that children are special and hold the future in their hands and we strive to meet the following goals for each child: 1. Offer a curriculum that encourages social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth. 2. Teach the child to relate to others, value friendship and respect all people. 3. Provide a safe, comfortable environment for early learning and growth processes. 4. Help children develop self-discipline and independence and learn to deal with their emotions in an appropriate manner. 5. Provide a well-balanced schedule of activity and quiet time.
