Growing in God's Love"But Jesus called for them and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs."       Luke 18:16

Our Commitment
  • Loving Christian Environment
  • Minnesota State Licensed
  • Low Staff-to-Child Ratios
  • Christian Curriculum
 

Our Philosophy

The St. Andrew Early Childhood programs encourage the development of each child's understanding of God, related to life in the world, while providing social interaction and enrichment in a quality Christian environment.

The teaching staff nurtures the growth of trust in a safe, loving and positive atmosphere. The teaching of faith is naturally integrated in all developmental areas — physical, social, emotional, intellectual and spiritual.

 

Childcare
ChildcareOur center offers early childhood care and learning in a warm, safe and loving Christian environment. We offer care for children from 6 weeks of age until 5 years of age (or just before entering Kindergarten).

Preschool and Other Early Learning Programs
PreschoolOur program includes both morning and afternoon sessions where trained and loving teachers encourage your child to grow and develop to their full potential.
