Little Steps Preschool & Extended Care
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
— Matthew 19:14 (NIV)
Little Steps Preschool and Extended Care is located on the Newbury Park First Christian Church campus in our Education Center. A ministry of our church, it exists to meet the preschool and childcare needs of our community in a safe, nurturing, Christian environment.
Little Steps is committed to:
- Present the love of God through Jesus Christ, to each child, with a sound Bible-based curriculum.
- Help develop and maintain positive self-esteem in each child.
- Help develop the growth of each child spiritually, physically, socially, creatively, cognitively, and emotionally.
- Be an extension of each family so that the home and preschool can work, side-by-side, for the benefit of the child.
- Employ qualified staff and provide them with a pleasant, thoroughly equipped facility in which to work.
