Join a warm, loving Christian community where children are served, loved, and helped to grow.
The Son’s Children is a Christian nonprofit child care center that exists to love and serve children and families in our local community. Our mission can be summed up in three words:
Serve. Love. Grow.
We believe children are a gift from God, and we desire to create classrooms where they are safe, nurtured, encouraged, and prepared for school and life through the love of Christ.
